It’s that time again.
As we swing into the second half of 2019, the introduction of elite smartphones are flying fast and furiously.
A number of name brand companies have released their 2019 versions. This piece will delve into three of the most prevalent brands as they pertain to smartphones.
Currently, there are four Google-based phones standing out from the rest of the pack: Pixel 3, Pixel 3 XL, Pixel 3a XL, and Pixel 3a.
The standard Pixel 3 is quite expensive. It registers at upwards of $600 (depending upon the specific package). Last month, Google opted to release the 3a and 3a XL. Not only are these alternatives to the other phones, but they’re considerably less expensive. In some cases, the 3a and 3a XL cost half of what the other options do.
The 3a is slightly smaller than the Pixel 3. However, the models are rather congruous across the board. The 3a offers a 1080p Full HD screen, whereas the 3 XL is slightly better (1440p Quad HD).
LG
LG has made some rather big waves within the smartphone world. Two android phones in particular — the LG V40 and the LG G8 ThinQ — are noteworthy from underneath the LG umbrella.
Costing roughly $850, the ThingQ is a heavy-hitter option. Conventional fingerprint sensors accompany a glass back plate and a respectable 6.1-inch display screen. The G8 also boasts whopping 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage. As many have reported, performance with this phone is exceptional.
The LG V40 is known for its sublime speed, effective battery life, a beautiful screen resolution, and impressive sound. In other words, it’s a very good option for both surfing on the net, and streaming a sports event/movie/television show.
Samsung
Samsung is a quite popular smartphone brand. When looking at its 2019 models, three come to mind: S10, S10E, and Samsung Galaxy S10+.
According to Samsung’s official website, the company bills these three phones as their “latest and greatest innovation yet.” All three phones can carry up to 128 GB (though it can be expanded to 512 GB with a microSD card). The size of the respective screens range from 5.8″ to 6.4″. The edge-to-edge feature enables the phone to fully maximize screen space.
Lastly, the glossy finish — coupled with modern features — has all three of these phones looking daringly sleek.
