When it comes to the latest crop of smartphones, there’s good news and bad news.
The good news is that the they’re all brilliant. The not so good news is that choosing one is an even tougher than it was last year.
Feeling the pain of confused smartphone buyers, I got my hands on the latest crop of phones to test them out. These included an iPhone SE, Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge, HTC 10 and Huawei’s P9 Plus.
All the smartphone manufacturers are upping the ante. This means no matter which you choose, you’re almost guaranteed to get a great device. This also makes choosing which device to buy a tricky undertaking.
Each device is scored using the scale of 1 (poor) through to 5 (excellent) for design, display, camera and operating system.
IPHONE SE ($749)
Design and build
Its sharp edges and squarish design stand out against the curvy smartphones in this roundup. It might not be original, but the build quality is hard to fault.
Score 3/5
Display
The SE sports what Apple call a retina display. This is marketing speak for resolutions so high that pixels are unnoticeable at typical viewing distances. Its 4-inch display is small and the 800:1 contrast ratio is also lower than that of the other phones in this roundup.
Score 3/5
Camera
The iPhone SE packs the same 12MP camera as the iPhone 6s. It has received a lot of favourable reviews. This is thanks to features such as Focus Pixels, and 4K video at 30fps. The sensor has increased resolution, improved autofocus speed, and better noise reduction.
Score 3/5
OS
