December has arrived, bringing with it the usual wave of year-end reviews. The smartphone industry hasn't been this exciting in years. Recently, Europe has even been graced by flagship phones originally expected to launch in 2026, such as the Vivo X300 Pro, OnePlus 15 and Oppo Find X9 Pro. As in previous years, YouTuber MKBHD has unveiled his top smartphone picks for 2025 – though, naturally, not everyone will agree with his choices.
