Best Mobile Phones 2013 10 best smartphones you can buy
Best smartphones, mobile phones, phones. Whatever you call them they all share the same thing. They’re the hottest kind of tech. They sell millions, and make billions.

The first thing is to decide the platform you want to side with. There’s the iPhone and its iOS software, there’s the Android phones by Google, Microsoft’s Windows Phone 8 and – new kid on the block – BlackBerry 10.

They’re also the gadgets many of us are willing to spend the most cash on. Did you know that a high-end phone on contract can end up costing you over a thousand pounds?

It’s best to make sure you’re making the right choice before committing to a phone. We’re here to help you.
The first thing is to decide the platform you want to side with. There’s the iPhone and its iOS software, there’s the Android phones by Google, Microsoft’s Windows Phone 8 and – new kid on the block – BlackBerry 10.
iOS offers the best apps and games, Android the most fiddling potential. Windows Phone 8 is the slickest and BlackBerry 10 is on hand for those who want something a bit different.
2013 has already been a big year for smartphones with the two iPhones, the Nokia Lumia 1020, new Android phones from Sony and Samsung, and with the Nexus 5 showing its possible to sell a top-end phone at a reasonable price.
Which would you pick from the current bunch? Rifling through the phone reviews that get the TrustedReviews seal of approval, check out our best mobile phones of 2013 so far.
10. Nokia Lumia 1020
It might not be the best all round smartphone, but if you are looking for a great cameraphone the Nokia Lumia 1020 definitely fits the bill. The 4.5-inch, Windows 8-running 1020 piles in some impressive photo-grabbing specs including a 41-megapixel PureView camera and a Xenon flash with LED focus light. Image results can compete with compact system cameras in the right conditions and can be viewed back on a punchy, colourful 1,280x768 resolution screen. Its only dual-core and does still suffer from a poor selection of Windows apps. But if you really want camera quality photos, then the Lumia 1020 is the handset to snap up.
Review price: £599
9. Sony Xperia M
If you want an Android smartphone, but dont want to spend a huge amount, the Xperia M is an excellent option. Its only £170 SIM-only or free on a £16 a month contract, so it wont break the bank. For your money you get a 4-inch phone with a dual-core, 1GHz processor. Naturally theres a microSD slot for expanding the storage, which is just as well as only 2GB is built-in. Overall, the Xperia M doesnt do any single thing amazingly, but the screen, design and performance are all just right for the price you pay.
Review price: £170
8. LG G2
The smartphone with the buttons on the back, the LG G2 sees the South Korean company make an impressive return to smartphone prominence. The 5.2-inch G2 features a full HD IPS edge-to-edge display, a 13-megapixel OIS (optical image stabilization) camera and a speedy Snapdragon 800 quad-core CPU. Moving the buttons to the rear and reducing the screen bezel frees up the extra screen estate to make the most of HD movie and video watching. The camera is good, but doesnt deliver Z1 or Lumia 1020-like images. The G2 delivers a strong overall package making it a great alternative to the HTC One and the Samsung Galaxy S4.
Price: £400
7. Sony Xperia Z1
Addressing the key issues with the Xperia Z, the Sony Xperia Z1 is one of the most powerful smartphones to currently get your hands on. The 2.2GHz quad-core Snapdragon processor delivers one of the slickest overall performances weve seen and the 3,000mAh battery gives the Z1 real staying power. A slightly curvier design makes the 5-inch smartphone more comfortable to hold and the added camera button makes it easier to take photos and video underwater. The improved 20.7-megapixel camera didn’t blow us away but is still one of the best smartphone snappers around. Look out Samsung and HTC, Sony is starting to get a hang of this smartphone-making business...
Review price: £550
6. Samsung Galaxy Note 3
King of the big phones, the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 is once again equipped with the excellent S-Pen stylus. Featuring a 5.7-inch 1080p Super AMOLED screen, the Note 3 is powered by a Snapdragon 800 2.3GHz CPU and has 32GB and 3GB of RAM to take care of multitasking. The key design change from the Note 2 is the leather-effect battery cover which is more cosmetic than adding anything in terms of comfort. There’s a 13-megapixel main camera to shoot photos on par with the S4, but the S Pen stylus is once again the star of the show and has more apps to utilize its stylus powers. If you are after a big screen phone to get creative with, this is the best to go for.
Review price: £619.99
5. Nokia Lumia 620
The Nokia Lumia 620 is the cheapest phone in our best mobile phone round-up, but it totally deserves to be in here. It costs only a shade over £150 SIM-free (as low as £14 a month on contract), but its many times better than the majority of Android phones at a similar price. Its 4-inch screen isnt high resolution, but the colours and contrast are very good. But what really marks the Lumia 620 out as a star is the excellent design and the very responsive performance for the price. If you want a basic smartphone without the typical smartphone price tag we cant think of a better phone to choose.
Review price: £150
4. Samsung Galaxy S4
The Galaxy S series has come to be seen as the pinnacle of Android, and with good reason. The Samsung Galaxy S4 is a superb phone. It has a 13-megapixel camera, giant 1080p 5-inch display and quad-core processor (the 8-core version is not available in the UK.) In Samsung style, it has masses of extra software features including a fitness tracker, translator and eye tracking software that lets you scroll books and articles with just a gesture. Quite simply the Samsung Galaxy S4 is still one of the best Android phones to buy.
Review price: £579
3. HTC One
One of the most desirable phone of the year so far is the HTC One. And, yes, that includes the Samsung Galaxy S4. It has a sleek aluminium body that makes the top-end competition feel a little bit cheap. The HTC One also has a few other new HTC features. Top of the list are the UltraPixel camera and Blinkfeed, the star of the show of the new Sense UI. It’s sleeker and more stylish than the HTC Sense of old and – in our experience – it works better too.What’s not to like? The 4-megapixel camera doesn’t reap as detail-packed shots as its top rivals in bright sunlight, but it’ll win out in dim situations. If neither of the top two appeal to you, its the next best around.
Review price: £549
2. Google Nexus 5
If this was a round-up of the best value smartphones, the Nexus 5 would win hands down. At £300 for the 16GB version, the Nexus 5 is far better value than the iPhone 5S and Galaxy S4, or any other rival we can think of. Its Snapdragon 800 processor means its a match for the iPhones A7 processor, and its actually faster than the S4 and HTC One by dint of having the latest version of Qualcomms top-end processor. Elsewhere, we love the understated and practical design, the screen and the pure Android 4.4 experience with its improved interface. Where it falls down is in the battery life and camera departments. Neither are bad, but they dont quite match up to the iPhone 5S, which is why its only a narrow (but still excellent) second overall.
Review price: £300
1. iPhone 5S
The iPhone 5S continues Apples benchmark setting trend, though the gap between it and its rivals is as narrow as narrow can be. Keeping the same 4-inch Retina display found on the iPhone 5 and its replacement the iPhone 5C, the high grade aluminium phone is now available in gold and space grey colours. The most radical design change is the Touch ID fingerprint sensor situated in the home button to add an extra layer of security and convenience. The super-fast A7 processor is great, too, but its the camera that clinches things for the 5S. The new True-Tone LED flash leads to better shots with the flash enabled, while the infinite burst mode, slow-mo video, speedy app and outstanding HDR mode make using the iPhone 5S camera a joy.

iPhone 6 vs iPhone 6 Plus Apples two latest smartphones go head to head
Its been a long time since Apple was under this much pressure to impress with a new iPhone. After last years rather straightforward upgrade, the Cupertino company needed something special, and something to fight back against the moves being made by its rivals.

The iPhone 6 and the iPhone 6 Plus are Apples counter-punches, but how do they stack up against each other? And which one should you be spending your cash on?
The worlds iPhones have got thinner and lighter since 2007 but this year Apple has really worked some iPad Air-style magic on the dimensions of its latest handsets. The 4.7-inch iPhone 6 is just 6.9mm thick (shaving another 10% off the already slim 7.6mm iPhone 5S) while the 5.5-inch iPhone 6 Plus has a thickness of just 7.1mm.
The differences over the 2013 batch of iPhones is noticeable, and Jony Ives team have rounded the corners of the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus to accentuate the slimness of these devices, as well as adding more premium metal to the mix.
The familiar iPhone button layout has been rejigged to allow for this new super-thin frame. Most significantly, the power button moves from the top to the side, while the bands running across the top and bottom of the devices are introduced to improve reception and connectivity.
These are two almost impossibly svelte handsets, with the iPhone 6 offering a slightly thinner design than its more expensive iPhone 6 Plus sibling. If youre a phablet fan or have particularly large hands, the bigger model is the one youll have your eyes on. The same gold, silver and grey options are available across the board.
The screen is where we find the biggest gap between the iPhone 6 and the iPhone 6 Plus - its the main distinction between the models. The iPhone 6s display measures 4.7 inches corner-to-corner at a resolution of 1,334 x 750 pixels (or 326 pixels-per-inch).
The 6 Plus ups this to 5.5 inches and a resolution of 1,920 x 1080 pixels (401ppi). These figures put the iPhone 5S firmly in the shade, with its 1,136 x 640 pixel, 326ppi display.
All that means you get more pixels on the 6 Plus spread across a larger area. Website text will be bigger, movies can be viewed from further away, text will be sharper, and so on. It also makes the device harder to hold in just one hand, but the one-handed mode built into iOS 8 should be able to alleviate some of those problems. The weight of either the iPhone 6 or the iPhone 6 Plus shouldnt be a problem, at least.
One extra benefit you get from the additional screen space on the iPhone 6 Plus is the ability to run apps in landscape mode, iPad-style - its a bonus for anyone who wants more room to work with on their handset. If you use any serious productivity apps on the go then bear this in mind, though compatibility varies between apps.
Both of the new iPhone models feature the same camera lens technology. That means an 8-megapixel shooter (as with the iPhone 5S) but an improved f/2.2 aperture and processing algorithms, so your pictures are going to look better than ever in all conditions. Bear in mind that the iPhone 6 will be easier to handle with one hand when framing shots, but the iPhone 6 Plus will give you more viewfinder screen space to get your image lined up correctly.
The iPhone 6 Plus features optical image stabilization (OIS), while the iPhone 6 only has regular image stabilization. Also built into the iPhone 6 and the iPhone 6 Plus is the NFC technology required for Apples new mobile payments system, so you can use either phone to make contactless payments when youre out and about. The iPhone 6 is a little more pocket-friendly, which can help if you want to travel light.
The iPhone 6 and 6 Plus unsurprisingly make the jump to Apples A8 64-bit dual-core processor, giving it more oomph for your games and video editing. On-board RAM remains constant at 1GB, however, so for most day-to-day tasks youre not going to notice a huge difference in the capabilities of these two phones.
The iPhone 6 and the iPhone 6 Plus match in terms of storage capacities too: for the first time theres a 128GB level to join the 64GB and 16GB options. You can pick any of these three with any handset, though the iPhone 6 Plus is more expensive across the board, so youll be paying more for the same amount of space in return for a larger device and clearer display.
We heard plenty about iOS 8 and HealthKit back at WWDC 2014 in June, and the newest iPhones come with all the sensors and gadgetry required to make the most of these features.
There are no differences between the two devices in terms of the sensors they include - driven by the all-new M8 processor - and the main Health app that they run to keep track of all your vital signs.
Again, the only variation you need to think about is the size: the iPhone 6 is slightly easier to take out on a jog or to the gym, while the phablet-style iPhone 6 Plus is better suited for sitting back on the couch and checking out how well your fitness has improved over the past few weeks. Both give you full access to Apples new health platform.
The iPhone 6 Pluss larger frame means more room for a bigger battery. It also has more screen to illuminate.
Apple is telling us that its battery lasts for longer than the standard iPhone 6 - 16 days of talk time as opposed to 10, 24 hours of 3G talk time as opposed to 14, 80 hours of audio playback as opposed to 50, and 14 hours of video playback as opposed to 11. Both phones are upgrades on the iPhone 5S in terms of battery life, but the Plus goes even further.
If youve read all the way through this article, youll know that the iPhone 6 Plus comes with some premium features - bigger screen, more pixels, landscape mode - and those features come with a premium price too.
Its $100 more than the iPhone 6 at each price point, with the smaller iPhone 6 starting at $199 for the 16GB edition and the larger iPhone 6 Plus starting at $299 for 16GB. If you splash out on the new 128GB version of the Plus, youre looking at the most expensive iPhone yet.
SIM-free in the UK, the iPhone 6 will set you back £539 (16GB), £619 (64GB) or £699 (128GB). For the iPhone 6 Plus you can add on £80 or more - that equates to £619 (16GB), £699 (64GB) and £789 (128GB). Those prices will be lower on any contracts you sign with mobile operators.
For the US, contracted prices are all we have right now. $199 (16GB), $299 (64GB) and $399 (128GB) for the iPhone 6, and exactly $100 more expensive at each point for the iPhone 6L. Pre-orders open on September 12 with the phones on sale on September 19.

The Chinese firm has just posted a development PCB with the 8 cores chip, MT6592 and is announcing launching devices sporting such a chip by the end of this year.
So another company has just joined the dance among Jiayu, Xiaocai, Zopo or THL.
In Antutu, the MT6592 has scored around 20 000 - 25 000 which is high end 2013 devices scores. Budget SoC and excellent performances ? Sure looking that way.
