Another year down, and one possibly with more phone changes than ever. While previous years have been all about cameras, this one seems to have pushed new technology alongside cameras. In 2025, phone buyers were presented with more foldable phones and better batteries, plus all the new mobile cameras you could shake a stick at.
Pickr has covered more than a few Australians phone releases with our reviews, all built to change the way you choose with detailed analysis and research based around repeatable methodologies, but there still can only be a few judged as “the best phones”.
So here we are, ready with our choices for the best phones of 2025.
