The perfect telephones I am wanting ahead to in 2025

2024 is nearly behind us, so it’s time to try the yr forward. I’m enthusiastic about 2025 and all the nice devices we’ll see within the subsequent 12 months, particularly smartphones. Whereas I typically like to see as many nice handsets as doable available on the market, as extra competitors is finally at all times higher for us, customers, there are particular fashions that I’m slightly extra enthusiastic about than others.

I’ll share my listing of one of the best telephones I’m wanting ahead to within the yr to come back and my the explanation why. Let’s dive in.

The primary on the listing is the upcoming Pixel 10 sequence, which can doubtless debut in September or October subsequent yr. Extra particularly, I’m wanting ahead to the Pixel 10 Professional, which is anticipated to have a lot of the options of the bigger and costlier Pixel 10 Professional XL and a footprint nearer to the cheaper Pixel 10.

I’m a Pixel person and am in love with Google’s telephone sequence. It presents me all the pieces I would like and wish from a telephone. The efficiency is nice, the software program is a pleasure to make use of, the updates can be found on day one, and the digicam expertise is sensible. Then there’s the design and the general construct high quality, that are second to none.

I really like a telephone that packs as many options as doable, however I’ve a distaste for large telephones with shows that stretch to nearly 7 inches. I do not forget that my first pill had a 7-inch display, so I typically simply at all times most well-liked one thing a bit smaller with regards to telephones. And whereas a 6.3-inch show of the present Pixel 9 Professional isn’t technically small, the general dimension of the telephone is nice for me, because it doesn’t really feel overwhelming for my tiny fingers.

Samsung’s Galaxy S sequence is an in depth second to the Pixel lineup for me, and the brand new technology is simply across the nook. It’s rumored to be introduced on January 22 and will encompass the Galaxy S25, S25 Plus, and S25 Extremely, though there are rumors a couple of doable title change, which you’ll study extra about right here.

Out of the three, I’m most excited for the Galaxy S25, for a couple of causes. Sure, I do know it technically presents the least of the upcoming trio, and I’d like to see it include all the additional options you get with its two bigger brothers. Nonetheless, it nonetheless has all the pieces I would like from a telephone and is the proper dimension for me, which is a very powerful half.

The Galaxy S24 has a 6.2-inch show, and the one on the S25 is anticipated to be the identical dimension. So, I’d somewhat get the S25 for its compact dimension and cheaper price ticket than the uncomfortably giant Extremely with all its bells and whistles, however that’s simply me.

And we’re again on the Pixel sequence. Whereas I want Google’s flagship telephones, the Pixel A sequence at all times will get me excited. I imply, simply take a look at the Pixel 8a. It’s a $500 telephone with seven years of software program assist, a beautiful digicam, a improbable software program expertise, and extra energy than the typical person wants. It’s additionally a looker for those who ask me.

Whereas high-end telephones normally seize all the eye, I feel most individuals really don’t want one. I get requested for telephone suggestions by family and friends on a regular basis, and I level most of them within the route of the Pixel A sequence. In case you’re not a super-demanding person, a telephone like that provides all the pieces you want.

The upcoming Pixel 9a is anticipated to be one of the best telephone in its class, similar to the present Pixel 8a mannequin. The one telephones that come near it are the present Galaxy S24 FE and the upcoming S25 FE, which we’ll doubtless see in the direction of the top of 2025 and can compete with the Pixel 9a. I’m extra enthusiastic about the latter, though you may’t go improper with the FE lineup as nicely.

Earlier than getting a Pixel, I used to be a OnePlus person for a lot of, a few years. I switched as a result of I feel the model misplaced plenty of its id over time, however I nonetheless like their telephones. The software program is nice, particularly particular options like gestures that enable me to open an app with a swipe throughout the display whereas it’s turned off. The charging speeds had been at all times amazingly quick, the Alert slider was one thing I nearly used day by day, and the worth has typically been decrease than these of its rivals.

For these causes, I’m excited for the upcoming OnePlus 13. Effectively, upcoming is probably not a totally correct description of the telephone because it’s already been introduced, nevertheless it’s nonetheless on this listing because it’s solely out there in China for now, with a world launch scheduled for January 7.

The telephone appears wonderful and has all of the options and specs I might ever want. Though I’d somewhat get the upcoming Pixel 10 Professional, I at all times like to see the brand new OnePlus hit the market due to the nice reminiscences I’ve with its predecessors. I actually loved utilizing them, and I see why so many individuals like OnePlus telephones. Whereas I could change again sooner or later, I’ll keep on with the Pixel for now.

I’m an Android man, however there’s no denying that iPhones are nice gadgets. Whereas I received’t change to iOS anytime quickly, I really like seeing all the brand new issues iPhones convey to the desk — though we generally solely see small upgrades all through the lineup.

As I already talked about, extra competitors is at all times higher for the buyer, and the Apple and Android rivalry advantages us all. A vastly improved iPhone at all times places stress on Android producers, pushing them to provide higher telephones.

Apple’s upcoming 17 sequence continues to be a great distance from being launched, as we anticipate to see it someday in September 2025. Rumors have it that the lineup will consist of 4 telephones, and it’s the iPhone 17 Professional I’m personally essentially the most excited for.

It’s the identical story right here as with the Pixel sequence. The iPhone 17 Professional will doubtless have extra options than the bottom iPhone 17, nevertheless it received’t be as huge and ponderous because the iPhone 17 Plus and Professional Max. The present iPhone 16 Professional has a 6.3-inch show, which is the dimensions I’m very snug with.

And as you may anticipate from iPhones, the upcoming sequence could have greater than sufficient energy, trendy appears, and nice software program assist — though it will not be nearly as good as those from Google and Samsung.

So, there you could have it. These are the telephones that I’m most excited to see in 2025, though there are many others I’m wanting ahead to. What about you? Let me know within the ballot above and share your causes within the remark part under.
