The Best Android Phones of 2025: Tested by Our Experts

cnet.com See Full Bio 2026-03-10 07:02:00

The Galaxy S25's biggest flex that I noticed while testing is it shares many of the same attributes as its pricier counterparts, the S25 Plus and S25 Ultra – but it does so for several hundred dollars less. You'll find features like the AI Select tool, Audio Eraser and deeper Gemini integration across all of Samsung's S25 devices, as well as a custom Snapdragon 8 Elite processor and 12GB RAM – making the smaller phone of the bunch still seem pretty mighty. And while the Galaxy S25 might look

TL;DR According to a new report, the Pixel 10 series may feature a faster ultrasonic fingerprint sensor. The upgrade builds on the tech introduced in last year’s Pixel 9 phones. Other rumored features include the Tensor G5 chip, better image stabilization, and the debut of Magic Cue.

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR Google is removing a new Messages feature that made it easier to unsubscribe from automated business texts for users in the U.S. and Spain. The feature added a prominent unsubscribe button to chats, which sent a “STOP” command for the user after they provided a reason for unsubscribing.

9to5mac.com Ben Schoon 2026-03-11 16:21:52

In its continued “Best Phones Forever” series, Google pokes a bit of fun at how many iOS 26 features are “inspired” by Pixel, while also teasing the Pixel 10. The “Best Phones Forever” series has been going for a while at this point, with Google using the series to point out how iPhone and Pixel co-exist, and occasionally throwing little jabs at the iPhone. Most recently, the “Responding to the Rumors” episode poked fun at a handful of iPhone features that Pixel had first. “Total coincidence.”

Cyber threats are constantly evolving. While most devices come with built-in antivirus software, these programs may not offer comprehensive protection. A dedicated antivirus program detects threats like phishing, ransomware, trojans, and worms. The service will also alert you when you visit suspicious websites, try to download or execute potentially malicious software, or if malware otherwise finds its way to your system.
