Click on each of the recommended top 10 smartphones to read their detailed reviews, and get more information on the best android smartphones in India.
Samsung Galaxy S9+
The Samsung Galaxy S9+ is an extremely powerful smartphone, but unlike the S9, this one’s meant for big screen lovers. It has a 6.2 inch QHD display and Samsung’s AMOLED panels look as good as ever. It carries the same design as the Galaxy S8 and is the most ergonomic big screen smartphone today. To make a long story short, the Samsung Galaxy S9+ is the smartphone to buy if big screen and attractive looks are your priorities. All this makes the Samsung Galaxy S9+, the best among all the Android mobile phone in India.Google Pixel 2 XL
If pure Android is your OS of choice and money is no bar, the best phone in the market to get is the Google Pixel 2 XL. The Pixel 2 XL may have the same performance as every other flagship Android phone this year, but then Google phone more than makes up for it in the camera department. Both the rear and front facing cameras are superb. The phone also comes with a guaranteed early update to the next Android OS, as soon as it is available.Samsung Galaxy Note 8
Samsung has done a lot for Android, and this year it has one of the best Android phones to buy in India so far. The Galaxy Note 8 has an excellent camera, it’s fast and it’s arguably one of the prettiest Android phone out there. It is also the only phone which offers support for a stylus. It’s meant for flagship buyers who don’t want any compromise whatsoever, and if money is no bar, this is the Android phone to buy.Honor View 10
Powered by HiSilicon Kirin 970 SoC, the 2018 Huawei flagship is one of the best looking phones we have come across this year. The performance is almost at par with the OnePlus 5T, but the Honor V10 gains brownie points in the camera department as well as offering a better battery life. Best of all, the phones comes with Android Oreo out of the box.Honor View 10 - SpecificationsRam & Storage :6 GB | 128 GBDisplay :5.99 (1080 x 2160)Processor :1.8 GHz,OctaOperating system :AndroidPrimary camera :16 + 20 MPFront camera :13 MPBattery :3750 mAHSoc :Huawei HiSilicon Kirin 970- R 29999
OnePlus 5T
All things considered, the OnePlus 5T is a great smartphone. In fact, it’s the fastest Android smartphone out there today. It offers a 18:9 aspect ratio display which the OnePlus 5 lacked. For Android lovers, and especially the enthusiasts, the OnePlus 5T is a good phone to consider. It has a commendable but not perfect camera, but it will do the job very well. Combined with decent battery life, it makes for a great smartphone.OnePlus 5T - SpecificationsRam & Storage :8 GB | 128 GBDisplay :6 (1080 x 2160)Processor :OctaOperating system :AndroidPrimary camera :16 + 20 MPFront camera :16 MPBattery :3300 mAHSoc :Snapdragon 835Available at :

Samsung Galaxy S8
The Samsung Galaxy S8 has a great design and is without a doubt the most beautiful smartphone on the market today. It runs on a fast and up to date Exynos 8895 SoC, built on the 10nm process. Samsung has touched up on the camera as well, but it’s largely the same as last time. That, though means that the camera is still amongst the best in the market. Just not better than the Google Pixel (which is also why it’s behind that phone). The Galaxy S8 is the best Android smartphone for those looking for looks above all else.HTC U11
HTC’s flagship for the year, the U11 brings together a nice combination of performance, camera prowess and design. Like all flagship phones of this year, the U11 is also powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 SoC. There is 6GB of RAM on the phone, along with 128GB of storage. All this makes the phone superfast, no matter what you throw at it. However, what we liked more on the phone was the 12MP rear camera, which takes really good pictures.HTC U11 - SpecificationsRam & Storage :6 GB | 128 GBDisplay :5.5 (1440 x 2560)Processor :2.4 GHz,OctaOperating system :AndroidPrimary camera :12 MPFront camera :16 MPBattery :3000 mAHSoc :Qualcomm Snapdragon 835Available at :

Honor 8 Pro
The Honor 8 Pro comes with Huawei’s custom UI and chipset, but the phone is still considerably fast and snappy. It also takes good photos through the dual-camera setup and is affordably priced when compared to most other flagships. It’s an Android phone worth considering for sure. It is just not as fast as the phones which came before.Sony Xperia XZ1
Sony’s 2017 flagship may have the same performance as every other flagship in this list, but the phone there are certain compromises which is phone makes. The phone’s dated yet elegant design will appeal to Sony fans, but the smaller battery life and the inconsistent camera may not suit everyone.LG G6
LG didn’t change a whole lot between the LG G5 and LG G6, which is why this flagship remains behind the OnePlus 5T. However, the LG G6 does follow the newer Univisium standard, allowing it to be compact. With the Snapdragon 821 SoC, this is more or less as powerful as the LG G5 and it has the same wide angle dual-camera setup on the back. Using the same sensors on both cameras, LG was able to allow seamless zoom this time, and the overall camera quality is great. The LG G6 is a decent flagship, one that ticks most of the right boxes.
