If you can afford it, Google Nexus is the best. For three reasons: 1. Lean and Clean Carriers like Samsung and LG add a lot of code to the stock Android. While their skins may be better in some cases, they end up creating a bloated version of the operating environment. While I can t speak to their engineering quality, I can almost be certain that their engineering prowess (and timeline) is not the same as Google s. I can feel the bloat in pretty much all carrier phones. Nexus may not be the best UI out there, but UI is not the only thing. Nexus feels light, fast, and responsive…

It s been a dramatic year for Samsung and its Galaxy line, to say the least. On September 2, 2016, the company recalled its Galaxy Note 7 phone after a major battery flaw caused a small number of the phones to spontaneously explode. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, along with Canada and Mexico, made the recall official, banning the sale of the phone, and certain airlines have blocked the phones from their flights. (Consult CNET s Samsung Galaxy Note 7 FAQ for more information.) Before the Note 7 fiasco, there was the Galaxy S7 Active debacle, which now looks positively…

Aesthetically, the S6 design was a step in the right direction, but some of the Galaxy series biggest fans were unnerved by the removal of these key features. In terms of looks, the S7 is remarkably similar to the S6. It comes housed in another glass and aluminum body, but the camera sensor bump on the rear has seen a four-fold reduction in size, allowing the device to lie all but flat on a surface, while the heart-rate monitor and fingerprint scanner remain as before. This is a vast improvement over the…
