High-end smartphones

High-end smartphones are the most elaborate phones released by manufacturers. They get the most attention because of innovative technology, new features and premium materials. Therefore, a high-end smartphone usually comes with a high price tag. Something that becomes slightly more bearable when combined with a subscription and therefore spread payments.

Flagship

Almost all major phone manufacturers release high-end smartphones, sometimes called flagships or flagships. It is precisely these models that are advertised the most. Manufacturers try to attract new customers with new features and technologies and persuade existing customers to upgrade. Usually, a new model of a high-end smartphone is released every year. This murderous pace sometimes means that the differences are so small that customers are then enticed to buy them with marketing.

High-end smartphones have the most beautiful screens, the best cameras, the fastest processors and the most extensive features. The price is therefore quite high, especially in the first months after a model is released. With most brands, it gradually drops in the weeks and months thereafter.

Next-generation flagship

Those who want to save money but still want a high-end smartphone can consider buying a flagship from a year ago. These are often hundreds of euros cheaper but still have most of the features someone wants. With this, do pay attention to how long it is still supported. Android manufacturers in particular still tend to neglect to update old flagships. Apple does this much better with its iPhones where years of support is the rule rather than the exception.
