- The best smartphone right now is the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge
Thinking of buying a new phone? We've got the best smartphones of the moment all listed here - and with MWC 2017 now out of the way, we've got the LG G6 and Sony Xperia XZ Premium landing in the list soon.
There's also the small matter of the new Samsung Galaxy S8 and Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus - which are also on the cards to feature in this list in the near future.
It may be worth you holding off buying your next phone for a couple of weeks so we can bring you our full reviews of these big hitters, but if you're after a top smartphone right now, here's the ranking we've spent hours whittling down to a top ten.
We take into account the power, specs, design and, most importantly, value for money of each handset.
(If the price is too high, check out our list of the best cheap handsets that won't cost you more than £200).
Best smartphone
For those in a rush, here you go: the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge is the best smartphone in the world.
Its combination of great camera, stunning looks and sleek body, alongside the world's best screen, make it an easy win... and lower prices of late have made it an even better buy.
However, with the recent introduction of the Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8 Plus, will the S7 Edge be able to hold onto top spot once our full reviews land? They will be with us soon, so make sure you keep an eye out.

10. Motorola Moto Z Play
The best phone for the smart buyer
Weight: 165g | Dimensions: 156.4 x 76.4 x 7 mm | OS: Android 6 | Screen size: 5.5-inch | Resolution: 1080 x 1920 pixels | CPU: Snapdragon 625 | RAM: 3GB | Storage: 32GB + microSD | Battery: 3510mAh | Rear camera: 16MP | Front camera: 5MP
Clever modular accessories
Much lower price than many
Low spec CPU struggles
No waterproofing
Motorola's got a bit of an underground hit with the Z pair - and now it's available in the UK properly, the Z Play has knocked the hyper-expensive Google Pixel XL out of the list.
We're fans of the Z Play thanks to its innovative magnetic clip-on accessories - a simple snap on cover can transform this phone into an impressive standalone camera, music player or even projector.
It looks great and for a low price too - sure, the CPU could be better and the camera doesn't impress massively, but that drop in spec has been drilled back into the price tag, and this is a very decent phone for the money.

- What's next? There's not a lot of information out around now around the Moto Z Play 2, but we've compiled a look at what we're hoping will be coming to the Moto Z (2017) - and a lot of that will filter down to the new Z Play.
