The best Android phones of 2019 according to the Xataka Android group

As every year these days, the time has come to do it the balance of what they left over the 12 months They are about to end. Although we will soon increase the rate with the best applications and best games, we will now focus on mobile phones that have hit the market in 2019.

Throughout the year, we have attended the launch of dozens of devices in all price ranges, including the first wave of 5G phones and the first wrap. Each Xataka Android team member has a choice model he used throughout the year debating various reasons for this. Do you agree with the candidates? You can leave your winner in the comment.

Iván Linares: OnePlus 7 Pro

It's hard to keep just one, it's been a busy year in terms of smartphones. Maybe 2019 goes on from there there was no actual party in the design or operation of the key it doesn't matter how fast 5G gaps and transitions will go on their journey. And if I had to choose I would stay with the OnePlus 7 Pro, a phone that surprised me at the time and one I liked to carry.

Large and heavy, these are two of the biggest hits ever. Without these interruptions, you are one of those flight and use phones, which perseveres without blurring the trot you want to hit and offers excellent photographic performance. Their cameras don't fare well on Android, but their performance in that field is more than warranted. And features such as screen, power, RAM, storage and OnePlus's attempt to innovate put a great icing on the delicious cake.

OnePlus 7 Pro is a great choice, and its highly renewable model, OnePlus 7T Pro. In my opinion, the brand is on the Podium for the hardworking producers in 2019 to offer quality betting at the price it contains. Besides this it minimizes the fact that the phone is expensive, probably more expensive.

Samuel Fernández: Xiaomi Mi A3

When asked about the "best mobile of the year", the publishers of technology often sin in order to cut back a lot because they think it is the one who gives the most, or maybe the one who gives the least. Blessed balance. But sometimes we forget that Android is an active, universal application, so I'll rely on it. everyone's cell phone. Or just about everyone.

To me, and its flaws, it has, the best mobile phone of 2019 couldn't be worse without the Xiaomi Mi A3. The tough race has a Redmi Note 7 and is probably the best, but that delicate balance between giving more of less (or more than less) integrated with the installation of Android One It makes the phone work like a lot and probably stays cool for a long time. In fact, it would be hard to find a waterproof cellphone at 165 euros right now. And look at the camera at its price range.

Iván Ramírez: Google Pixel 3a

At the end of the year it happened: Google released a version of its Pixel phones that didn't charge your wallet. You have done it twice with Google Pixel 3a and Pixel 3a XL, although there is a slight difference between them the "regular" Google Pixel 3a to me seems to have a better value for money that's why that's my chosen mobile.

Google Pixel 3a is the most economical way to get into the Google experience car, and that compliments Android updates and development packages. You probably don't have as many lenses, megapixels or green power as other phones at the same price range, but just because the first cheap Pixel This year's mobile rankings have already been acquired.

Ricardo Aguilar: OnePlus 7T

The best Android this year, in my opinion, is the OnePlus 7T. It offers the same as the Pro model, but the not having a screen selected It is, in my opinion (and more specifically, from a practical and ergonomic point of view), a valid point.

The price is good, without landing, of course, on levels seen in previous generations, such as the OnePlus 3T. 90Hz panel, full performance, Software cleaning and "fixed" price, I think it's the Android I would recommend right now.

Speak again here on the Huawei P30 Pro, browser, it is actually better to point to a point but impartiality, and placing it in keeping with its market exit price (not the current one), is not a good place in my opinion. However, it has come down in price and is an exciting option, although EMUI has yet to convince me, and not being able to put Gcam in the club's base would also leave me in second place.

Amparo Babylon: Huawei P30 Pro

For me this year's Android phone is the Huawei P30 Pro and for two reasons: his camera and his self control. I realize I have never been a fan of EMUI and today I still love pure Android, but that flexible camera does everything else in the background (otherwise EMUI has improved a lot).

Variety on offer angular combo with 5x zoom It is undeniable, and although there are features that can be improved such as artistic similarities, it is the best camera of the year. Independence is the icing on the cake and something that is not readily available in the high grade.

Cosmos: Pixel 4

If you are looking for a high end and good Android experience, there is no doubt that the Google Pixel 4 is the best mobile of 2019, to me the 5.7-inch model is the best option when giving a compact phone one of the best Processors this year. Google has resisted notch, cosmetic on the screen and telescopic camera, betting by placing the front camera and sensors on a smaller frame.

The most important design for its new Pixel 4 is Motion Sense, which is a radar it allows us to control the cell phone without touching it and could provide more play next year. And we must not forget the advances made by one of the best mobile cameras, such as astrophoto and Live HDR +.

The best of Pixel 4 is its software and support. And three years of guaranteed renewal in new versions, with monthly security updates, and from this month, Pixel Feature Drop updates, which add very special features. If you are looking for a compact high-end, without a notch and have good experience and support, there is no doubt that the Pixel 4 is the best mobile this year.

Laura Sacristán: Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro

When we are betting on value for money, which is basically a purchase for most people, I think the Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro
He is the winner, which led to him winning first place in its category at the Xataka Annual Festival. We're talking about a terminal that costs less than 400 euros and that, at that price, offers you an AMOLED screen, a Snapdragon 855 processor and 6 GB of RAM.

To this end we have to add outstanding autonomy and cameras, in addition to many opportunities, and give us satisfactory results. It is true that in many MIUIs it can be a misconception, but it should be noted Xiaomi is doing a good job in this case it has also been a very complete and customized layer. Few competitors can compete with this phone, with the exception of the Realme X2 Pro, which came later, but we're very grateful for the same specifications and others added.
