If there is one thing people can’t live without today, it’s got to be a smartphone. In such a small amount of time, this small box of ingenuity has found its way into millions of people’s reach and continue to be one of the most dominating forces in the tech scene today.
So, if you’re on of the rare ones who suddenly find themselves without a phone at hand, then you came to the right place at the right time. We’ve rounded up 5 of the best android phones this 2017 that will surely satisfy even the pickiest of the mobile gaming buffs or the most fault-finding, self-confessed phone connoisseur.

The Google Pixel is a phone carved out of every android purists’ dream. Built with simplicity in mind evident by its premium form and minimal design, it boasts of the newest android OS in its natural form, no third-party software inlays whatsoever.
If you’re into the growing trend of mobile photography, then the Pixel might just be the phone you have been looking for. Equipped with a powerful 12 megapixel rear camera, it excels even in low light environments and is considered one of the bests today.
However, power is the Pixel’s kryptonite. With a 2770 mAh battery pack, the android phone can only last you a day at best with moderate usage.

If you want more juice out of your phone, then Lenovo’s P2 will unquestionably be the phone of your dreams. Packed with a large 5100 mAh battery, this android phone can legitimately last 2 days away from the socket.
Another amazing facet of this phone is its price. Compared to other android phones in the market, the Lenovo P2 is a cheap buy. But to fit snuggly in that price range, the P2 sacrifices specs which is a little on the downside.
All in all, the Lenovo P2 is great for users who are on the go. With it, the hassle of charging will just breeze by you.
3.Moto Z

Easily the thinnest phone in the market, Motorola’s Moto Z brags about its modularity designed uniquely with an array of snap-on extensions called “Motomods” that will enable you to boost your battery, intensify your music experience, and another to project movies or videos on-the-go. Isn’t that amazing?
But its modularity comes at a price. To accommodate the magnetic snap on extensions, the Moto Z had to be designed relatively on the thin side which means that battery life is compromised and the headphone jack is removed. If those drawbacks don’t faze you, you’ll have a piece of the future in your hands.
2.OnePlus 3T

Dubbed as the “flagship killer”, the OnePlus 3T is an improvement to the still fairly new OnePlus 3 furnished with a bigger battery, a faster processor, and an enhanced front-facing camera.
Though unquestionably a great phone all around, the OnePlus 3T might scare away storage buffs for its lack of a microSD card slot and heavy users with its less than stellar battery life.
So, if you’re craving for something high-end without wanting to spend all the bucks, then the OnePLus 3T is the phone that’s built for your needs.
1. Samsung Galaxy S8

After the exploding battery controversy of the Note 7, everyone might have thought that it was the end of Samsung’s reign as the top android phone manufacturer. But here is Samsung’s Galaxy S8 conquering the no. 1 spot in our list.
The Samsung Galaxy S8 is the most sought-after phone this 2017 not only because of its namesake but also for its remarkable design, battery life, and incredible display.
But what’s really a step forward for the S8 is the inclusion of a voice assistant in the form of Bixby. It’s still a little too early for Bixby to go against his more renowned counterparts but Samsung is onto a great start.
Something that any Samsung flagship has never been without is a great camera. The S8 sports a top of the line 12 MP rear camera that’s perfect for anything. Low light, indoors, and outdoors, name it! The S8 will give you crisp photos with great color all the time, any time.
Samsung also endowed the S8 with a biometric scanner which acts as a second defense that protects your data from being stolen, the newest in mobile security.
