**The Best Smartphones of 2018: A Roundup of Favorites**

When it comes to smartphones, there are many great options to choose from in any given year. For 2018, we've got a list of favorite smartphones that showcase some of the best features and technologies of the year. From powerful processors to amazing cameras, these phones are sure to impress.

**UrAvgConsumer's Favorite Smartphone**

What's up, YouTube? It's UrAvgConsumer on SuperSaf TV, and if I had to pick my favorite smartphone for 2018, I'd probably go with the Samsung Galaxy Note 9. The Note 9 is a beautiful device with a lot of great features. And what's nice about it is I feel like there's no compromise when you go with the Note 9. You still got the headphone jack, wireless charging, waterproofing, all that stuff, while it's still being a powerful device with a great display, camera, pretty decent speakers. So if I had to choose one, I feel like that's the best all-around pick you can possibly get.

**Austin's Favorite Smartphone**

Hey, guys, this is Austin on SuperSaf TV, and my favorite smartphone of the year is definitely the OPPO Find X. Now sure, it is not perfect smartphone. What's so cool about it is it's just so different, right? I mean, first of all, in a world of bezels and no headphone jack or all this stuff that's negative, you've got the Find X, which is legitimately a crazy piece of tech. You've got the motorized camera, you've got the bezel-less display, you've got that awesome rear, sort of like purple coating. Yeah, I know, it's not really a practical choice for most people. But it has been a longtime since I've opened up a product and been that sort of, not just surprised, but just impressed.

**Jaime Rivera's Favorite Smartphone**

What's up, YouTube, this is Jaime Rivera with PocketNow, here on SuperSaf TV. Favorite smartphone for 2018, that was a tough one. We have an insane list of great phones this year, but my favorite became the Huawei Mate 20 Pro. In my hands-on, I even call this phone the kraken. This is not just a beast, this is the beast. It performs great. Not necessarily my favorites software or speaker, but this is a phone that I'm always carrying, whether it's just going to be my stills camera for many reasons. It's got a wide angle, a telephoto, the combination that I've always been looking for. And if you could wrap all that up in such a beautiful phone, I really can't ask for more, in addition to all the processing power and everything that you've got here. This is my favorite.

**MKBHD's Favorite Smartphone**

Hey, what is up, guys, MKBHD here on SuperSaf TV. Coming at you with my number one favorite smartphone that came out in 2018. So I pretty much always have the choice between any of the phones that came out during the year. And the one that's in my pocket right now with my SIM card in it is the Pixel 3 XL. And this is a personal choice of mine, because I am super into this camera. It's a big reason why the last Pixels spent a lot of time in my pocket. And Night Sight and all thenew camera features in this one are a big reason why I like this one even more. And I have the XL with the huge notch and everything, and I've gotten used to it. But a lot of people might find the smaller Pixel 3 to be a better buy. It's cheaper and it has pretty much all the same features, including that camera, but in a little more pretty of a body. So yeah, that's it. Pixel 3, phone of choice. Thanks for watching, peace.

What's up, guys.Saf here on SuperSaf TV.And this is the best of the best.A lot of the regulars will knowthat towards the end of each year,I do a massive SuperSaf-style collabwith my amazing YouTuber friends,and ask them to share with uswhat their favorite smartphoneof the year has been.And as we have year on year,this year we have aneven more epic lineup.And there's also going tobe a part two of

bell icon so you get notifiedas soon as it's live.Right, so I'll kick things off.And it was really difficult to choose,because we've had so manyamazing smartphones this year.But if I was to pick one overall,it would have to be theSamsung Galaxy Note 9.The reason for that isalthough it might not bethe best smartphone for everything,it does everything really, really well.It's got one of the bestdisplays in the market.It's got great cameras.It doesn't have a notch,and it has a 3.5 mm jack.It's got stereo speakers,expandable memory,a great design and build, and the S pen,something that we don'treally see on the smartphones.And it makes it quite unique.That's my pick.Let's see what the others have chosen.- What's going on, guys?Jon Rettinger from TechnoBuffaloon SuperSaf TV here.Not only am I the owner ofthe most epic beard in tech,my favorite smartphoneof 2018 is this guy,the iPhone Xs Max.Out of all the phones I've tested,it's the phone that I'vewanted to carry with mefor reliability, for battery life,for iMessage, and for the camera.For me, it's the iPhone Xs Max.- Colonel Singala here onSuperSaf TV for BooredAtWork.I want to talk about my favorite phone,the Huawei Mate 20 Pro.It has triple camera,one for my good side,my beautiful side, andof course, my sexy side.Plus it's got two-day batterylife for jungle warfare.It is fantastic.And finally, my wife cannotuse my face to unlock my phone,because it has in-displayfingerprint sensor.Sexy.- What's up, guys, thisis Faisal on SuperSaf TV.When it comes to myfavorite phone of 2018,it would the Samsung Galaxy Note 9.Why is that?'Cause it's the closestthing to a perfect phone.We are waiting on less bezels,yet when it comes tothe package of Note 9,it got everything that youmight think of in a smartphone.It has stuff either thatyou might use sometimes,and sometimes you would even need.The key is that thephone got to a maturitythat is perfect, and issufficient enough to give youa very good Android experience.- What's up, guys, this isiJustine on SuperSaf TV.My favorite smartphone of 2018 has to be,of course, no surprise, the iPhone Xs.But it's actually theiPhone Xs, not the Xs Max.Now, while I absolutelylove the screen sizeand the resolution of the Xs Max,I just felt like thisis a better fit for me.I had been using the XsMax for quite awhile,and then I got my handson the smaller versionand I said, this is perfect.But if I had to pick my favoriteAndroid phone right now that I'm using,this is the new thunderpurple OnePlus 6T phone.I love the in-screen fingerprint reader.I love the minimal notch.- Hey, guys, Ash here fromC4ETech on SuperSaf TV.And my favorite smartphone this year,it's got to be the Pixel 3 XL.Yep, but the notch and all that.I absolutely adore the 3 XL.While others might can offer the similarsmooth performance that it does,Google's image processingstill stands unrivaled.The impressive portraits from last yearare even better this time.The wide-angle selfie camerawas a pleasant surprise.And of course, Night Sight.It's been fantastic.I like it enough that if, in fact,somebody told me I'dhave to pick one phonefrom this year that I'd have to useas my primary for the next two,I'd end up going with the Pixel 3 XL.- Hey, guys, it's David TheUnlockr, for SuperSaf TV.And my favorite phone of 2018,it's probably not goingto be a big surprise,but it's the Huawei Mate 20 Pro.Now, the reason that isis because I love thethree cameras on there.I love having multipleoptions for framing,like I can use the telephoto,the wide, and the regular.And the camera's pretty good,night mode is incredible.I would say it's not quite as goodof a camera as the Pixel, for example,but I can't choose thatbecause it dies too often.This phone checks off a lot of boxes.It has great battery life, fast charging.It has a good form factor,really good camera.The software is, it's okay, good enough.And so yeah, I have to saythat for an entire package,I've got to go with the Mate 20 Pro.- What's up, YouTube.It's UrAvgConsumer on SuperSaf TV.And if I had to pick myfavorite smartphone for 2018,I'd probably go with theSamsung Galaxy Note 9.The Note 9 is a beautiful devicewith a lot

still being a powerful devicewith a great display, camera,pretty decent speakers.So if I had to choose one,I feel like that's the bestall-around pick you can possibly get.But one thing I will sayis that the Pixel 3 XL,that thing really has my heartwhen it comes to having a camera.I think it's just amazing.But overall I will say the Galaxy Note 9.- Hey, guys, this isAustin on SuperSaf TV.And my favorite smartphone of the yearis definitely the OPPO Find X.Now sure, it is not perfect smartphone.What's so cool about it isit's just so different, right?I mean, first of all, in a world of
