Today’s smartphone landscape is as exciting as ever. We see many innovative designs, cutting-edge features, and astronomical improvements in smartphone photography. Smartphone cameras have improved so much that industry experts predict that they will overtake DSLRs in the next few years. If you want to experience all these cool and handy features in the best way possible, you cannot just go for any flagship model. You ought to look for the best of the best. Furthermore, flagship phones these days are about more than impressing your friends with the latest and greatest piece of tech. A great smartphone can actually help you achieve more, as our lives are so intertwined with these devices. In this article, we will explore the top three smartphones you can get today, carefully selected based on their design, cameras and everything else.

HUAWEI P60 Pro

You have never seen another phone like the HUAWEI P60 Pro. It’s the first phone in the world to have a Pearl Texture Design, and it’s absolutely stunning! The Rococo Pearl colour is inspired by the Rococo style that prevailed in France in the 18th century. Each HUAWEI P60 Pro carries a unique pattern because of the traditional artisanal methods that went into creating them. This gives every single piece of the HUAWEI P60 Pro a look that’s unique to itself. So you can have your own special Pearl Texture Design that’s one of a kind. The Rococo Pearl is not just another colourway; it’s a masterpiece that will blow your mind and make you stand out from everyone else.

For the camera module, the HUAWEI P60 Pro adopts the Eye of Light Design, placing the main camera in the centre and the telephoto and ultra-wide angle lenses arranged around it. It’s something that puts novelty back into smartphone photography.

Another standout feature of the HUAWEI P60 Pro is its impressive Ultra Lighting XMAGE Camera system. The Ultra Lighting Telephoto Camera and the Ultra Lighting Main Camera are part of this brand new imaging system. If you love taking photos in low light, you will love these. The Ultra Lighting Telephoto Camera that uses a 48-megapixel sensor can let in more light than any other phone. This means you can zoom in on far-away objects in low light and snap well-lit pictures with vivid colours and plenty of details. The Ultra Lighting Main Camera is nothing short of extraordinary, either. Also equipped with a 48-megapixel primary sensor, it can capture incredibly detailed images in the most challenging lighting conditions. It is hands down the best phone for night photography.

The phone features an eye-catching Quad Curved Display that is protected by the ultra-durable Kunlun Glass. Besides drawing you into an engaging visual experience, the quad-curved design provides a comfortable grip. Additionally, the 1-120Hz LTPO adaptive high refresh rate ensures buttery-smooth visuals while also saving battery life. Moreover, thanks to the ultra-durable Kunlun Glass, you can be confident that your phone is not just visually stunning but also built to last.

Powering the HUAWEI P60 Pro is a substantial 4815 mAh battery designed to keep you going throughout the day without having to worry about frequent charging. The smartphone supports 88W HUAWEI SuperCharge and 50W wireless fast charging. The phone also supports 7.5W reverse wireless charging, allowing you to charge your earbuds or smartwatches by placing them on the back of the phone. With the Turbo mode, you can charge the phone from 0% to 50% in just 10 minutes. And the best part is that you do get the 88W charger in the box.

Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra

The Samsung S23 Ultra sticks closely to its predecessor’s design aesthetics to the extent that it is not easy to tell the two apart without close inspection. Similar to the S22 Ultra, the curved display almost entirely takes up the front of the Galaxy S23 Ultra except for the hole punch cut out for the selfie camera and tiny bezels at the top and bottom. On the back, 5 camera lenses continue to dot the top left corner, albeit slightly bigger. One minor change is the smaller radius of the edge curvature, which gives the phone a boxier appearance. This also provides the screen with a greater flat surface area, making it a bit more comfortable to use the built-in S Pen. The S23 Ultra comes in a range of colours, including Phantom Black, Green, and Lavender.

The phone features a periscope lens capable of 10x optical zoom and up to 100x digital zoom. Additionally, there is another 3x zoom lens. However, it is the main camera that has seen the biggest upgrade, featuring a new 200-megapixel sensor. It will provide you with a great deal of flexibility if you want to crop in on your photos after shooting. But the tradeoff is that each of those 200MP images will be around 50 MB in size. However, the phone takes advantage of the high-resolution sensor with 16:1 pixel binning for better low-light performance, producing more typical 12.5MP images. Samsung promises better “Nightography” performance with the improved sensor, which will also allow users to shoot better Night Portraits. In short, the S23 Ultra gives users a good set of cameras for everyday photography. Additionally, it boasts an ultra-wide-angle lens for capturing expansive shots and a dedicated macro lens for close-up photography.

The Galaxy S23 Ultra boasts a remarkable 6.8-inch 120Hz AMOLED display with a refresh rate of up to 120Hz. The refresh rate can scale down as low as 1Hz to preserve battery life when the higher refresh rate is not needed. It also supports HDR10+. To protect the screen from scratches and accidental drops, the S23 Ultra is equipped with Corning Gorilla Glass Victus.

Under the hood, the Samsung S23 Ultra is powered by a 5000mAh battery and supports 45W fast wired charging. Moreover, it is compatible with 15W wireless charging and 4.5W reverse wireless charging with other Qi-enabled devices.

iPhone 14 Pro Max

Except for the slightly larger camera module and the new pill-shaped cut-out on the front, the iPhone 14 Pro Max looks almost the same as the iPhone 13 Pro Max. However, the pill-shaped cutout that houses the front-facing camera and Face ID is a refreshing update. Along with the new design comes the Dynamic Island interface, which is basically a new way to view and interact with notifications. The phone features a stainless steel frame and a Ceramic Shield front cover. The iPhone 14 Pro Max is available in a selection of colours, including Space Black, Gold, Silver, and Deep Purple.

Apple has stepped up its camera game with the iPhone 14 Pro Max. It now has a 3x optical zoom telephoto lens that uses a 12MP sensor and sensor-shift stabilisation, which minimises camera shake for sharper images. The main camera has also seen a major upgrade this year. It now comes with a 48MP sensor instead of the 12MP sensor that has been the standard for iPhones for the past six years. That being said, the images snapped by the main camera are still 12MP by default, although it lets you take 48MP ProRAW images if you fancy more flexibility during editing. It also uses Smart HDR and Deep Fusion to optimise images for texture, detail, and noise reduction.

The iPhone 14 Pro Max features a 6.7-inch Super Retina XDR and has a refresh rate of up to 120 Hz. It supports HDR10 and Dolby Vision and the new always-on-display. The implementation of the always-on-display on the iPhone 14 Pro is a bit unique, though. And the Ceramic Shield front cover of the new iPhone offers four times better drop performance than its predecessor.

Although we don’t know the exact battery capacity or the wired charging speed of the phone, both of these have seen some notable improvements. Moreover, the phone is compatible with MagSafe wireless charging at 15W and offers reverse wireless charging with other MagSafe-compatible devices.

Conclusion

In short, while all three of these phones have their unique strengths and features, the HUAWEI P60 Pro is going to be an easy choice. It boasts a stunning Pearl Texture Design, exceptional Ultra Lighting XMAGE Camera, extremely tough and durable Kunlun Glass, and long-lasting batteries supported by fast charging. It represents the pinnacle of design and smartphone photography. And, with it, you can be confident that you’ll enjoy the best that 2023 has to offer.
