The iPhone 12 Pro / 12 Pro Max are arguably the best smartphones you could buy in 2020. The only reason Apple’s latest flagships end up lower than Samsung and OnePlus’ smartphones is because of the price, and perhaps the screen with half the refresh rate of the first two phones. Otherwise, the iPhone 12 Pro/Max’ cameras offer a versatile experience, iOS is better than ever before and the screen is excellent despite its lower refresh rate.

Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra 5G
