FYI, the list covers smartphone for midrange to flagship killer phones.... that's why you wont find Apple, Samsung or other high end (so called flagship) phones.
maybe due to not everyone can afford to buy a flagship phones.
In my opinion it is best to buy a DSLR and a midrange phone (nowadays, some midrange phones are near by equal to flagship killer phones). also by looking at the trend... more often people like to switch their phones in every 1 or 2 year.
also, smartphone cameras may be great but has no comparison with DSLR Cameras which is why majority the youtubers shoot their videos with a DSLR camera and not just youtubers, but filmmakers , photographers (be it a marriage shoot or wild photography or modeling, etc)
and one a manage to buy DSLR if choose to buy midrange instead of flagship every year or two.
not just that, DSLR camera will last for more than a decade or two if used carefully + you can change camera lens if needed.
Hands down , IQOO 15 is best flagship killer phone to get in 2026
It made my day to see someone who doesn't choose apple. Samsung, and Xiaomi in their top three. I've always wanted to try out a vivo and realme phone they seem amazing

Tech Guy , 04 Jan 2026Due to camera and big battery man... Xiaomi 15's camera is better (main and ultra wide)
Battery is also better. (check Gsm arena score)
Better glass protection, better chipset, ufs 4.0, Usb 3.2 Otg among other advantages.
Nice picks.
Can understand why this people are litterary poisoned from something like Apple, Google, Samsung.
Always same thing minor changes and apart the price zero improvements.
Lord Bennington, 04 Jan 2026Why did you pick Vivo X200 FE over the Xiaomi 15 which has no weaknesses? I mean the Dimens... moreππ
Reviewers love Iqoo 15.

Bug , 04 Jan 2026Ohhk , so this this guy is bbk Guy, That's why Indian Xiaomi units get very bad review :dNo Nope.... Xiaomi didn't launched the 15 Civil in India otherwise it would have made the list.... Although Poco F7 was launched but wasn't impressive in Camera and had no gaming trigger nor a cooling fan plus the annoying crappy software of HyperOS just hurts a lot...
