DroidApp Awards 2025
Every year, we give you a rundown of the best smartphones of the past year. We do this by presenting the DroidApp Awards at the end of the year. A total of five smartphones take home this award. What do the different devices excel in?
Xiaomi 15T Pro
As far as we are concerned, Xiaomi should be proud of the recently presented Xiaomi 15T Pro. This device is packed with interesting specifications and, above all, offers a very good camera; so we wrote in the Xiaomi 15T Pro review. On top of that, the smartphone looks good and gets longer updates and you benefit from a long battery life. Best of all: you can buy it for 599 euros at Belsimpel (instead of 799 euros). (Almost) a no-brainer.
- You can buy the Xiaomi 15T Pro at: Belsimpel, Bol.com, Coolblue, Mobiel, MediaMarkt.
OnePlus 15
A smartphone that also scored high points this year was the OnePlus 15, as you could read in the OnePlus 15 review. The phone in question has a significantly improved camera and unprecedented battery life. In fact, the smartphone has a 7400 mAh battery. Add to that a fine screen and good sound quality and you have a near-perfect device. However, it does have a shorter update policy than several other devices.
- You can buy the OnePlus 15 at, Coolblue, Belsimpel, MediaMarkt, Bol and Mobiel.
Google Pixel 10 Pro XL
Is the Google Pixel 10 series exciting, no, not exactly. But in our Pixel 10 Pro XL review, we were very positive about the phone. Battery life has clearly improved and the phone offers a very good camera. The smartphone is assured of updates for a long time. What we like most about the Pixel devices: the software. Thanks to Android 16 with Material 3 Expressive, you get an incredibly sleek, slick piece of software. It's all very well put together! Think the Pixel 10 Pro XL is too big? The Pixel 10 Pro offers the same camera, in a smaller package.
- You can buy the Pixel 10 Pro XL at Coolblue, Belsimpel, Mobiel, Bol.com, MediaMarkt. You can also find the devices at Odido, KPN and Vodafone.
Motorola Edge 60 Fusion
Don't want to spend so much money on a new phone, but still want a nice device? Then we recommend the Motorola Edge 60 Fusion. This fine phone is comfortable to hold, has a very good battery life and a camera that takes nice pictures. In our Motorola Edge 60 Fusion review, we rated this phone with a 9! It's a shame, though, that you still don't have Moto AI, but well, that's not a dealbreaker for this device.
- The Motorola Edge 60 Fusion is on sale at: Coolblue, MediaMarkt, Belsimpel, Bol.com and Mobiel.
Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7
Samsung tries to impress year after year with its foldables. This year, the brand does so with the Galaxy Z Flip 7 and the Galaxy Z Fold 7, the latter being another step up and positively received. It is a very thin device that offers a nice big screen when unfolded. In doing so, the Galaxy Z Fold 7 does not disappoint in terms of performance. The main camera scores well, although the quality of the other lenses is a bit less. The phone gets seven years of updates and has since dropped quite a bit in price.
The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 is on sale at: Samsung itself, Coolblue, MediaMarkt, Belsimpel, Mobiel, Odido, KPN and Vodafone.
