69 new emojis just arrived on iPhones - and we've ranked them all

When I first checked out the new emojis back in March, the pretzel came in at No. 1. But now that I actually have the new characters on my phone, I'm revising my ranking to put monocle man in first place. I'm not sure how much I'll use this little guy, but he sure is cute.

Mermaids have captivated our imagination for centuries, and emoji are finally catching up. This Ariel-like emoji is not only cute, it's incredibly detailed (look at her scaly tail and highlighted hair!).

This emoji for keeping a secret is not only very cute, it will come in handy more often than you'd think. Planning a surprise party? Spreading some hot gossip? Use this emoji to make sure everyone knows to keep it on the down-low. We predict that this emoji will quickly be used in heavy rotation.

Emoji of the past have been mostly clean-shaven, but this bearded gentleman is the first of his kind. We now finally have an emoji to better represent hipsters, lumberjacks, and Ryan Gosling.
