If you can spend at least $ 1,000 on a smartphone, then do it. Otherwise, do not be discouraged, because the price of this model is still too high, especially when you consider that it does not have such things as a quick charger or even a regular USB-C adapter for headphones.

Both XS and XS Max phones have the same features. The main difference between them is the size of the screen and the case.

4. Samsung Galaxy Note 9

We are talking about the best Android smartphone, which was released by Samsung recently, in 2018. It has a large 6.4-inch screen, and can work with the S Pen, which allows you to take notes under the influence of mood and not to miss important thoughts.

Given the considerable cost combined with powerful features, this smartphone is more suitable for experienced users for whom the phone is an indispensable workhorse for important tasks.
