The most anticipated smartphones: TOP 5 models that will be presented in 2025

When one year turns into another, it's always a good idea to look back and dream about what lies ahead. I'm looking forward to 2025 and all the cool gadgets that will be released in the next 12 months, especially smartphones. I actually like it when there are a lot of cool models on the market, because competition always benefits us, the buyers. But there are also a few models that are more interesting to me personally. I want to share my thoughts, maybe you can keep me company in this section.

Who made it to the rating

Google Pixel 10 Pro – this is what I'm definitely waiting for. I've used the Pixel more than once and I can say that it's the perfect phone for me. Performance, camera, updates — everything is at the highest level. Of course, it won't be as big as its older brothers, but that's fine with me. I'm not a fan of huge screens, and here the size is quite normal — 6.3 inches. This is exactly what I need. For me, these phones – are always a combination of excellent quality and performance, without unnecessary frills.

Next Galaxy S25, and again, compactness comes first for me. Although larger models are usually also interesting, the S25 is exactly the size that suits me. It will not be as expensive as the S25 Ultra, and the display will not be as large. It seems to me that this model will be the most interesting of the entire series, because for me not only characteristics are important, but also convenience in use. I am more satisfied with the compact versions, because a large screen is not always a plus.

Another favorite is— Google Pixel 9a. I've always been a fan of the budget Pixel models. They don't have all the flagship features, but for their price they offer a very good camera, powerful software and a user-friendly interface. Having such a phone in your hands, you don't feel limited. I think the Pixel 9a will be a very good option for those looking for a good smartphone for reasonable money. And this phone, like its predecessors, will definitely attract attention.

OnePlus 13 — another model that does not leave me indifferent. I've been a OnePlus user for several years, and even though I've now switched to another brand, I'm still looking forward to new models. Fast charging, user-friendly software, a slider for silent mode — it's all so cool and comfortable. And the new OnePlus 13 has everything you need. The phone looks amazing and I'm looking forward to its global launch because it's always cool – to see new things on the market.

Here's iPhone 17 Pro While I prefer Android, I have to admit that iPhones – are also really cool devices. I always admire how Apple pushes the entire industry to new standards. I'm probably looking forward to the iPhone 17 Pro the most because it's going to be a very powerful phone with a good balance between size and features. I like their design and stable software, although I don't think they'll match the likes of Google or Samsung in terms of updates and functionality.

So, these are my main candidates for 2025. I hope they live up to my expectations, and maybe even surprise me with something new and cool. What do you think? Which phones are you interested in?
