Comparing the indications of price-quality and detailed characteristics ten models, it's safe to say that the iPhone 7 Plus really becomes the best smartphone of 2017.

Smartphone manufacturers bring new models to the market every year. Users get more powerful, productive and functional devices. Traditionally, the attention of experts and most consumers is focused on the most powerful flagship models. And this is understandable - it is in these devices that the latest technological innovations are implemented. They are the ones who show us today in which direction the smartphone industry will develop tomorrow. To understand what awaits us in the near future, consider the top most powerful smartphones at this moment.

But we will do unusual review... Agree, it's boring to constantly talk about the same thing all the time. On each profile resource, you can read that the most powerful smartphone of 2017 is either the flagship from Samsung or the next iPhone model from Apple. But what is the practical use of such reviews? How many users have the budget to buy the flagship model of the leading market players? For this reason, we decided to focus on the products of lesser known brands.

Smartphones from dozens of manufacturers are on the market today. Everyone in the line must have a flagship model that is powerful and productive. Often, in some respects, such devices even surpass the market leaders. Moreover, the price for them is several times less. Agree, rarely does anyone use the functionality of their smartphone 100%. And if you need a gadget to perform specific tasks, it is better to pay attention to the models in which the corresponding functionality is implemented in the best way.

For example, you take a lot of photos and communicate in social networks... To do this, you need a smartphone with a high-quality camera and high-speed Internet support. For those who use a smartphone at work, processor performance and a large amount of internal memory for installing numerous applications are more important. Music lovers should pay attention to support external cards memory is the most affordable way to download your favorite songs to the device memory.

And for certain functions, it is not necessary to have the most powerful smartphone that surpasses other models in all respects. You can choose a device with an optimal price / functionality ratio. Therefore, we decided to pay attention to the models of brands such as Xiaomi, Huawei, Meizu, BlackBerry and Wileyfox.

Let's start our ranking of the most powerful smartphones in this market segment with a review of the flagship of the popular Chinese brand Xiaomi. It should be noted that in recent times interest in Chinese gadgets is growing. More and more consumers are choosing more affordable, but no less powerful and functional models from companies from the Middle Kingdom. As for the Xiaomi brand, the most powerful smartphone of 2017 in its lineup is the flagship Xiaomi Mi 6. This model is interesting because it is presented on the market in three configurations - budget, medium, and top.

For the budget configuration, the MediaTek Helio X30 processor is provided, while the more expensive modifications are equipped with Snapdragon 835 chips. In addition, there are differences in volume. random access memory- in different models, it ranges from 4 to 6 GB, as well as built-in memory - up to 256 GB in the TOP version. Common to all configurations is a modern metal body, a 5.2-inch display and high-quality 16-megapixel cameras.

The price of a smartphone, depending on the configuration, ranges from 17 to 30 thousand rubles.

Another model from a Chinese manufacturer. The well-known and quite popular in Russia company Huawei in 2017 offered users new smartphone- Huawei P10. Let's note one feature that distinguishes the devices of this company from many others. Most often, Huawei equips its gadgets with processors of its own design. The device Huawei P10 received an 8-core chipset Kirin 960. The processor performance in multi-core mode exceeds even the indicators of the world's most powerful processor A10 (developed by Apple). And if you focus on this indicator, then we can even say that Huawei P10 today is the most powerful smartphone in the world in 2017.

Other specs include a 5.5-inch screen, dual 12-megapixel cameras, 6GB of RAM and up to 256GB of storage. At the same time, it cannot be said that this is a budget model - the cost of a smartphone in the Russian market starts at 38 thousand rubles.

In 2017, she decided to please her fans with new flagship smartphone another company. The Meizu brand is known to many users who prefer to buy not expensive models sufficiently powerful smartphones. Last year's favorite Meizu Pro 6 Plus will be replaced this season new model- Meizu Pro 7. Since the device has not yet gone on sale, we can only discuss preliminary specifications.

It is expected to have a metal case, a diagonal of the screen 5.62 inches, equipment with a 10-core processor MediaTek Helio X30. It is assumed that the model will receive 6 GB of RAM and 64 GB of internal memory. It is also known that the device will be equipped with a 12-megapixel main and 8-megapixel front camera... Considering the fact that recently Chinese smartphones are starting to move from the budget segment to the middle segment, it is worth assuming that the price of Meizu Pro 7 is unlikely to be at the budget level.

We suggest paying attention to another very interesting phone... Today the form factor in which the BlackBerry is produced is rather unusual. But at one time he was very popular. The so-called QWERTY all-in-ones, or "calculators", were widespread only a few years ago. Their four-row keyboard was much more comfortable for typing than the usual layout of a regular phone. But with the arrival on the market touch screens this decision became of little interest, and the company began to lose ground.

In 2017, the BlackBerry Mercury entered the market - the brainchild of Chinese manufacturers and BlackBerry software developers. Probably, many users will find this solution inconvenient. Right. If you're used to using your smartphone to view photos or videos, the BlackBerry Mercury's screen will be a little small. At the same time, for users who use a smartphone for work, this model can be an excellent choice. A large battery, good cameras and a smart enough Snapdragon 625 chipset will allow you to organize work in applications and not worry about the battery being drained by the end of the day.

Although many can be stopped by the price of the device - in the Russian market, BlackBerry Mercury is sold for 37 thousand rubles.

Wileyfox company

When choosing today which is the most powerful smartphone available on the market to buy, be sure to pay attention to the lineup British company Wileyfox. For the first time, the brand brought its products to the market in October 2015. But even in the conditions of the strongest competition, the company managed to win the trust and sympathy of consumers.

The success of Wileyfox smartphones in the market has a simple explanation. Each model of the company received a list of the most requested and expected options and functions. So, in each device there is support for working with two SIM cards. In addition, even budget models support high-speed 4G LTE data networks. It is worth noting the attractive design and high quality of both assembly and components. Without a doubt, a huge plus is the powerful equipment of smartphones of the Wileyfox family, given their affordable price.

The best way to appreciate all the advantages of the British company's products is a short review of the flagship - a smartphone.

Model Wileyfox Swift 2 X has an attractive stylish design and excellent technical characteristics... A high-quality Full HD IPS 5.2-inch display provides high-quality images even under the most adverse conditions (bright sunlight and wide viewing angles). The screen has slightly rounded 2.5D edges, which further emphasize the originality of the model.

It is worth noting the high performance of the device, which is achieved by the coordinated work of the current version of the operating system, a powerful 8-core Qualcomm MSM8937 chipset and 3 GB of RAM. The device is equipped with 32 GB of internal memory, it supports work with microSDXC memory cards up to 128 GB. Lovers of photography will certainly appreciate the high-quality 16-megapixel camera that shoots video in Full HD format.

One of the many advantages of the model is also the ability to use two SIM cards. Today it is quite a popular and relevant option. Hard to find tariff plan, equally beneficial, both for calls and SMS, and for connecting to mobile internet... There are no more problems with this. One SIM card is for the most profitable voice services, the other is for 4G Internet. And most importantly, in a Wileyfox Swift 2 X smartphone, it doesn't matter which slot the card is installed in. To access the Internet, you can choose any slot by simply specifying it in the menu. In addition, we note the presence of a fingerprint scanner and the implementation of NFC technology. Surely it will be useful to support the Quick Charge 3.0 fast charging technology, which allows you to charge the battery to 25% capacity in just 10 minutes.

A detailed overview of the powerful smartphone Wileyfox Swift 2X watch in this video:

Going to the official website of the company, you will be amazed at the price of this model, which is only 12,990 rubles.

Conclusion

As we noted at the beginning, our review includes smartphones of the middle and budget segment. We deliberately did not consider the most expensive models of brands with a worldwide reputation. The goal of the article was to make you understand that the most powerful and modern smartphone is not necessarily the most expensive. Today you can buy an excellent device with excellent performance and a relatively modest budget.

A lot of really cool smartphones came out last year and it's time to rank the best of the best. We present to your attention a selection of the top gadgets for the beginning of 2017, which presents the phones that set a new bar for the development of the mobile industry.

Google pixel

The good corporation has previously released smartphones under the Nexus brand, but they were all developed by third-party companies, and Google only installed bare Android on hardware and optimized the software part of the system. With the release of Pixel, the situation has changed - the world saw an uncompromising, top-end smartphone, developed by Google from scratch.

Pixel can rightfully be called the king of Android smartphones in 2017. It runs on the latest Android 7.1 Nougat and has many unique software features, chief among which is Google Assistant, which is the best implementation artificial intelligence among digital assistants. Also in the face of Pixel you will receive the best camera on the market that takes gorgeous photos with rich, contrasting colors and reference detail.

The smartphone is available in 2 versions: standard, with 5 '' FHD display, and XL - 5.5 '' with Quad HD resolution, both versions use exemplary AMOLED matrices. For the Pixel's performance, the Snapdragon 821 processor, 4 GB of RAM and 32/128 GB of internal memory are responsible. Price - from 50 thousand rubles, the smartphone is not officially sold in Russia.

Galaxy S7 Edge

The Galaxy S7 Edge is the only Android smartphone that can compete and surpass the Google Pixel in some ways. So, the product of the Korean company has a slot for a memory card, more capacious battery, which is enough for one and a half to two days of smartphone operation and, importantly, water protection according to the IP68 standard.

S7 Edge is one of the best cameraphones at the beginning of 2017: before the release of Pixel, which received 89 points from the authoritative resource DxOMark, it was S7 that occupied the first line of this rating with a result of 88 points. Thanks to f / 1.7 optics, it can take great pictures in low light, and during the day it gives perfect shots at all.

2K AMOLED screen, Exynos 8890 (2.3 GHz), 4 GB RAM + 32 GB ROM, 3600 mAh battery - all these are characteristics of one of the best flagships of the past year, which is the S7 Edge. You can buy a smartphone at a price of 55 thousand rubles.

iPhone 7 Plus

iPhone 7 Plus got into our rating as one of the most productive smartphones of 2016 and the only gadget with dual camera, on which the program blur function background implemented really well. In addition, the latest iPhone can offer fans of the brand a new Home button that supports Taptic Engine technology, high-quality stereo speakers, moisture protection and a chic 5.5 '' screen.

The 7th apple also has a lot of drawbacks - this is the absence of a classic 3.5mm headphone jack, and weak autonomy paired with a lack of fast charging, and not the most practical ceramic case, which quickly becomes covered with scratches. However, the sales of the iPhone 7 Plus testify to the demand for this gadget, and if you are tired of the Android platform, it can be an excellent choice among premium smartphones. Price - from 60 thousand rubles.

OnePlus 3T

If we start from the cost, then the price / performance ratio is indisputable the best flagships there will be smartphones from Chinese manufacturers. One plus 3T can be considered a reference model of the mobile industry from the Middle Kingdom - it is a beautiful gadget with a top-end camera, a horse's performance head, excellent autonomy, and a gorgeous screen.

Take a look at the characteristics of 1 + 3T: 5.5 '' FullHD AMOLED screen, Snapdragon 821 processor + 64/6 GB of memory, both 16 MP cameras, while the main one has optical stabilization and hybrid autofocus, 3400 mAh battery with fast charging, NFC- chip and latest version CyanogenOS. This is a real space shuttle for the 35 thousand that are asked for this smartphone. Moreover, One Plus is famous for its long-term support for its devices, and by purchasing 1 + 3T you will get a phone that will be relevant for at least another 2-3 years.

Meizu Pro 6 Plus

Another reference Chinese flagship is the recently presented Pro 6 Plus, which Meizu rehabilitated for not the most successful previous models of smartphones in the premium segment. In 2017, the new product will definitely have successful sales, this will be facilitated by a really cool camera that shoots no worse than the Galaxy S7 Edge, a powerful Exynos 8890 processor (the same as in the flagship from the Koreans), 64/4 GB of memory, and a 2K AMOLED screen with a diagonal of 5.7 inches.

The main trump card of the Pro 6 Plus is the sound in the headphones, the quality of which Meizu can compare with expensive Hi-Fi players. The audio path of the smartphone consists of a dedicated ESS ES9018K2M DAC, operational amplifier ADI AD45275 and Rubycon capacitors. If you are looking for a phone that can fully unleash high-quality headphones that rivals the flagship of the market in terms of the aggregate of characteristics, the Pro 6 Plus is the uncontested choice. Price - from 35 thousand.

Xiaomi Mi5s

Xiaomi was one of the first Chinese brands to adhere to the dumping policy. With the advancement in the market, the company has repeatedly raised the cost of gadgets, but even now they can be bought much cheaper than smartphones from A-brands with similar characteristics.

Xiaomi Mi5s is notable for its excellent hardware (821 Snapdragon, 64/3 GB of memory in the younger version), a high-quality 5.15 '' FHD IPS screen and a good camera. Mi5s shoots excellently during the day, a little worse in the evening, and mediocre at night. At the same time, shooting on the machine is implemented perfectly here - in order to get a good picture, you just need to take the phone out of your pocket and press a button.

Also on sale is the older version of the flagship - Xiaomi Mi5s Plus, which has a double photomodule and increased RAM up to 6 GB. The cost of smartphones is 25 thousand for the Mi5s and 34 thousand for the Plus version.

Nubia Z11 Mini S

Z11 Mini S is one of the best smartphones in price category up to $ 250. The device is made in a monolithic metal case, the build quality is excellent. The diagonal of the display is 5.2 '', this is an excellent FHD IPS matrix, on board the gadget 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of internal memory, without the possibility of expansion. The processor is Snapdragon 625, in the benchmark the smartphone is gaining up to 70 thousand parrots.

The main advantage of the Z11 Mini S is the camera, which can be considered the best in the middle class. The smartphone is equipped with a 23 MP sensor with a sapphire lens, which takes excellent pictures with cool detail and color reproduction. It is also possible to record video in 4K resolution, however, due to the lack of optical stabilization, the video is slightly jerky.

The Z11 Mini S has no serious flaws, we only note the need to flash the smartphone, since it is not Russified out of the box and does not have Google Apps... Price - from 16 thousand rubles.

Lenovo ZUK Z2

In terms of price / performance ratio, one of the best offers on the market can be considered the ZUK Z2. ZUK is a sub-brand of the well-known company Lenovo, positioned by the company as a manufacturer of "flagship killers". For 15 thousand rubles we get a gadget with the flagship Snapdragon 820 processor, 5 '' FHD IPS screen, 4 GB of RAM and 64 or 128 GB of preinstalled memory, 13 and 8 MP cameras, 3500 mAh battery and USB-C interface... The result in the benchmark is 131 thousand parrots.

Looking at the characteristics of the ZUK Z2, you involuntarily look for a catch, since flagships that cost 2 times more are equipped with such hardware. However, it is not there - the only thing worth noting is that the smartphone has a fairly simple and utilitarian appearance, and is not officially sold in Russia.

Honor 8

Huawei under its own brand mainly sells fashion smartphones, products developed as a result of cooperation with other companies (for example, Huawei mate 9, with a Leica camera) or gadgets advertised by famous stars, which, due to the status component, often have an overpriced price tag. And under the sub-brand Honor, smartphones are released for people who do not want to overpay and understand what exactly they need.

The Honor 8 is essentially the flagship Mate 9 disguised in a chic ceramic body, which costs 40% less due to the absence of the Leica lettering on the camera module. The smartphone turned out to be really cool, this is not just one of the most beautiful devices on the market, but a gadget with excellent characteristics (5.2 '' IPS FHD screen, Kirin 950 processor, 4 GB of RAM + 32/64 GB of memory with a slot for a flash drive, 3000 batteries mAh battery and 12/8 MP cameras), which has a reasonable price tag (28 thousand rubles), is officially sold in Russia and is ready to use out of the box.

Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime

At the beginning of 2017, the undisputed best budget smartphone is Xiaomi's Redmi 4 Prime. The device with a 5-inch FHD IP screen is powered by a fresh Snapdragon 625 processor, has 32/3 GB of expandable memory on board, a 13/5 MP camera (f / 2.2) and a 4100 mAh battery, which is enough for two days of intensive use smartphone.

Unlike many inexpensive smartphones, Redmi 4 Prime boasts a high-quality build, no throttling, impressive battery life, great job interface and performance, which is more than enough for any daily tasks. So far, the only drawback is the lack of a global firmware, but Xiaomi promises to release it in the near future. For 12 thousand rubles - an excellent choice.
