This device performs all its work exclusively in the sensor. The QNX operating system is the basis for the Blackberry Z10. It should be noted the interface, which is designed for control with gestures, an active keyboard that can predict what the user wants to type.

The notification panel is also noteworthy. The uniqueness of this smartphone is the fully sensory operation of the device, although at the same time an addition was released in the form of a QWERTY keyboard, but it is not in demand and appeared in sales much later.

The price of this device is from 10 300 rubles.

In ninth place is another decent smartphone - Samsung I8190 Galaxy S III Mini.

It is quite a worthy phone, which presents itself very modestly. However, it is very reliable and the cost is quite democratic. This smartphone Powered by Android with a dual-core processor. Equipped with a display that displays a huge gamut of colors.

Unfortunately, the battery is not as strong as we would like. Equipped with all the necessary communications.

The cost of this phone is 4390 rubles.

8

In eighth place is the flagship Apple iPhone 6 / 6S.

Most users recognize this model as one of the best predecessors. It's hard to argue, of course. However, when this smartphone was first released, many complained about the large size of the gadget.

Of course, every user has adapted to this phone and is absolutely delighted. Live photos, excellent photo and video quality, extensive design memory - all this fits into one phone, the price of which is 32,990 rubles at the moment. Of course, the price depends on how much volume you choose.

7

In seventh place Sony Xperia E / E Dual
A very simple and inexpensive gadget with two SIM cards. Perhaps two SIM cards are not what attracts users for a long time.

However, there are still those who are interested in this kind of gadgets. It is in this smartphone that you can use two SIM cards.

In the phone settings, everything is the same as in the Sony line, however, there are some nuances that we will pay attention to.
1. SMS counter
2. Ability to use two SIM cards
3. The user has only 2 GB available.
4. Standby mode can save your smartphone's charging for a long time
The small-sized gadget with the best performance will be a great friend for you.

The price of such a phone is 5650 rubles.

6

Indeed, the size of the phone has grown quite a bit. What could be better? The video accelerator operates at higher frequencies. Due to its high performance, every user will want a decent battery. The producers did not cheat you with it.

With reasonable use, the gadget will last all day and keep the charge level. The user receives videos and photos at the highest level. Even in bright light, the photos are very bright and the image is clearly visible.

The price of this gadget starts at 10,099 rubles.

5

Fifth place belongs sony smartphone Xperia ZL.

Once again, we're back to the Sony brand.
The main disadvantages are: the gadget's non-removable battery, poor camera quality, body thickness, and aesthetics.
Many people complain about the case, as well as the design of the phone itself. However, this is not a reason for frustration. The plastic looks just as good as any other material on the panel would look. In addition, in our time, cases for cell phones... If you absolutely do not like the design of the phone, then there is a way out.

The smartphone is quite compact in size, has a five-inch screen in Full HD format. If we compare with the Xperia Z, then in the gadget in question, the panels located on the top and bottom panels have decreased. It may be unusual for someone to see the camera in the lower corner. In this smartphone, the camera is located exactly in the lower right corner. Compared to other smartphones, this is a bit strange and unusual.

However, Sony is not the first phone to have a camera in such a strange place.
The build quality should be noted. In general, according to tests, the state of the assembly is assessed as positive.

The starting price of this smartphone is 27,490 rubles.

4

In fourth place hTC phone One SV.

HTC is positioning its products as a premium gadget category. By creating new smartphone, HTC ONE SV is based on the same shapes as in Desire SV. This smartphone is exactly the same size as the Apple Iphone 5,5s. The base of the case is made of matte material, which is painted in the original color.

The display is not as big as many expected. The smartphone has a proximity sensor, a sensor that allows you to automatically adjust the brightness, the display is protected by glass. The reserve that is available for the backlight is quite sufficient and it is enough for the room. On the street, however, a problem may arise only in bright light. In sunny weather, the phone works as usual, the ability to read the data is not lost.

The price will be 8990 rubles.

3

In third place is Apple's gadget - iPhone 7.

There were all sorts of jokes about the iPhone 7. Everyone expected it differently: both large and long and in the shape of a shovel. Of course, there were a lot of jokes on the Internet. Finally, the seventh iPhone came out. Is it worth it? Many fans and iPhone enthusiasts are very disappointed. After all, if you compare the sixth model and six S, then you will understand that the seventh model and seven S are absolutely identical. Now you can hear "Why do I need a seventh, if my sixth is exactly the same."
The design has remained largely unchanged with minor changes that have not made Apple fans happy in any way.

Pleases that this gadget is of the same size and is fully consistent with the 6 and 6S models. The seventh model is also available in three well-known colors - silver, rose gold and gold. Also available in matt black and onyx black. These colors look very stylish. Of the advantages, it can be noted - protection from dust and moisture. Also, the new line of the seventh iPhone offers much more memory than was offered on the sixth series of the iPhone. Also users can use wireless headphones... Advantage or disadvantage - you decide in the process of use.

The price for this gadget is 74,990 rubles.

2

In second place is samsung phone I9500 Galaxy S4.

There are often disputes between Samsung and Apple fans about which phone has the best features. It is stupid to ask in this case. After all, Samsung works on the basis of the Android operating system. Those who had the opportunity to use phones based on IOS, as well as on Android, they will understand that there is no point in arguing. These two operating systems are completely different and have nothing in common.

Samsung Galaxy S4 is the most anticipated novelty of not only Samsung fans, but also other leading brands. This model gained popularity primarily due to worthy marketing advertising. However, Galaxy is good without ads. The size of this gadget has already caught up with Apple, and it is possible that it has already surpassed it.

By technical parameters Samsung Galaxy S4 is recognized as one of the most advanced smartphones today. It's very nice that the manufacturers have taken care of the battery of this phone's battery. In spite of everything, in this model everything has been kept in the new fashion. The slot for the camera, as well as the battery itself - all this is very well located and stored in the best this model. It is impossible not to turn special attention the fact that the screen has become much larger, but the body has become much lighter and thinner.

The big advantage of this model is that even with the enlargement of the screen, the dimensions of the phone have been preserved and even improved. The improvement, of course, is seen in the phone being lighter and thinner. Thanks to this design, it is a pleasure to hold the device in your hands. The top of the phone now has an infrared port. Probably many have forgotten about this miracle, which has long been in demand on all phones. Thanks to the IR port, you can control your home electronics however you like.

This smartphone released by Sony the brand-new Xperia Z line got its popularity right away. Most of the users, who already had a special love for Sony, gave their preference to this particular model. Sales started in 2013. I attracted this smartphone not only with its design, but also with its 4-core processor. In addition, this smartphone has received certification and is officially recognized as a dustproof and waterproof smartphone. Such a phone is not afraid of dust, moisture, and is also able to submerge in water for a short time to a depth of one meter without losing its ability to function in the same mode.

In fact, this smartphone has made quite a bit of competition for other leading smartphones. So let's start disassembling this phone from its appearance... Opening the box with a completely new phone, you will see: directly a smartphone, a USB cable, headphones, an adapter for charging your phone, and a memory card. The gadget is easy to recognize from the outside thanks to the design of the phone itself. The shape of the gadget has an angular shape. The front and back of the panel are covered with glass and the sides are made of plastic, the edge lines are protected with rubber.
As you can see, the phone is made of rather reliable materials that will protect the phone from shocks.

What makes the phone resistant to moisture and dust? Everything is very easy and simple. This phone comes with two panels that provide this level of protection. Of course, we can already confidently assert that the materials are durable and do not give cause for concern. However, there are drawbacks. Glass located on the screen quickly loses its brightness due to the fact that it is left with fingerprints. Of course, wiping the screen once more is not a problem, but it still causes some inconvenience. This device works on the basis of the android operating system.

One cannot but note the advantage - Full HD quality. The benefits are immediately apparent, but the differences are not as big as many thought. If you want to play back the video, as well as when viewing images, BRAVIA technology will help. With this system, your smartphone will perform better in bright sunlight.
Nevertheless, no matter what innovations were introduced, the screen still did not reach the ideal. Unfortunately, the viewing angle was not that good. Of course, we still need to work on this. In addition, it should be noted the high contrast and brightness of the display.

27989 rubles - the price of this smartphone

Well, at the end of the article, a small video review of top-end phones.

These are decent phones that made our TOP rating of the most popular phones of 2016. The choice, of course, is only for you, the main thing is not to be mistaken with the choice!
