1. Samsung Galaxy S6

See the best deals for the Samsung Galaxy S6 - Samsung's best-ever smartphone

Samsung has really listened to what customers want, and has improved almost every aspect of its flagship phone. Gone is the clutter while the screen and camera have been boosted to class leaders. This truly is the phone to own this year.

2. iPhone 6

See the best deals for the iPhone 6, Apple's most impressive handset ever and a TR favourite

Apple's iPhone always delivers the goods. Although sometimes it's not the most cutting-edge, Apple always manages to give the people what they want. This time around the iPhone 6 got size increases that make it a phone for the phablet generation.

3. HTC One M9

See all the best deals for HTC's amazing new phone - the best looking Android phone ever

A modest upgrade to the M8 it might be, but the M8 was already an amazing handset. HTC has improved the specs, added new features and improved the camera - one of the only major issues with the M8. All-in-all, the M9 has bundles to offer and a swanky new design that's an eye pleaser too.

4. Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge

See all the best deals for Samsung's best looking phone ever with an incredible USP

The S6 Edge is, perhaps, the most remarkable phone we've seen since the original iPhone. While the edge display has minimal extra features, it does add something else to the S6 - a sense of occasion. Hand this phone to anyone and they'll be impressed by the design, even die-hard iPhone users might admit it's an impressive device.

5. LG G3

See the best deals for LG's 2014 flagship phone which both looks and performs excellently

LG has just announced the G4, which arrives at the end of May, but for now the G3 is still one of the best handsets on the market. Perhaps best of all is the way LG has made the edges of the screen meet the edge of the phone, leaving almost no wasted space. Also worth note is the rear control for volume, it makes a huge difference.

6. Sony Xperia Z3 Compact

See the best deals for what is probably the best midrange handset ever made

Sony is one of only a few companies that makes a "compact" phone with the same power as the full-sized model. The Z3 Compact is powerful, while avoiding the trend of phones to get bigger and bigger.

7. Samsung Galaxy Note 4

See all the best deals for Samsung's latest phablet with its gorgeous scree and S Pen

We've always loved the Note range, and giving Samsung credit it basically started the trend toward these larger phones that are now all the rage. The Note 4 is the best yet, with a gorgeous screen and quite simply one of the best cameras on any smartphone. Most people didn't expect the Note range to take off, but it has, and that iPhone 6 Plus we also love is proof that Samsung nailed this idea.

8. iPhone 6 Plus

See all the best deals for the super-size iPhone 6 Plus with it's enormous HD screen

Is it unfair to say this is a response to the Note 4 above? We don't actually think it is. After all, most of the smartphones in the world owe a debt to those that went before. The iPhone 6 Plus is a thing of absolute beauty though, with a breathtaking screen and an amazing camera that has optical image stabilization. It's not cheap, but it's a magnificent handset.

9. Sony Xperia Z3

See all the best deals for Sony's amazing flagship waterproof smartphone

The Z3 is Sony's flagship, and it's also where the company proves it knows how to build a phone that offers something unique. Waterproof for one, along with an amazing screen and brilliant camera, the Z3 is one of the best handsets out there, and despite an incoming Z4, still very much worth your consideration.

10. Google Nexus 6

See all the best deals for Google's biggest and best ever own-brand Android smartphone

Google's flagship is unique. It's one of very few devices that runs Android as Google thinks it should be. There's no manufacturer clutter here, just a phone which has plenty of power and great features. It's also the first to get upgraded when Google launches a new version of Android, so for enthusiasts, this is the handset to pick.

11. iPhone 5C

See all the best deals on the cheapest iPhone currently available - 2013's iPhone 5C

The iPhone 5C is probably not long for this world. For now though, it offers something other iPhones don't - colour! So if you're not one for the serious majesty of the metal iPhone, grab the 5C and enjoy a more light-hearted side to Apple.

12. iPhone 5S

See all the best deals for the midrange iPhone 5S, now available for lower fees than you might think!

For those who lament the move by Apple to larger phones, the 5S is your salvation. Plenty of power, and that amazing fingerprint scanner make this a great phone today, even though it's now a year or so old. Some even say this is a better looking phone than the 6, plus there are great deals on it as it gets a little older. More power than most of us need, so you won't struggle to run advanced games and apps either.

Samsung Galaxy S6 deals

Samsung Galaxy S6

Simply the best phone in the world this year

TechRadar's favourite and top-ranked phone right now is the Samsung Galaxy S6. It's got all the features you'd want in a brand new market-leading smartphone, as well as fantastic looks, super build quality and a really great camera. This is not a cheap phone but if you take a look below you'll see we've found some surprisingly good deals!

• The Good: + Great for media | + Amazing camera | + Super sharp screen
• The Bad: - Battery life isn't good enough | - Very expensive

Compare and filter: compare and filter the best Galaxy S6 deals

iPhone 6 deals

Apple iPhone 6

Probably the best iPhone ever produced

Our second-favourite phone is the iPhone 6 - certainly the best phone Apple has ever created and definitely worth the extra money over an iPhone 5S. The larger screen, better keyboard and improved battery life make it a much more useable device than ever before.

• The Good: + Great design | + Improved battery | + Better keyboard
• The Bad: - Still quite pricey | - Screen is low-res next to the competition

Compare and filter: all the best iPhone 6 deals

HTC One M9 deals

HTC One M9

Looks fantastic and has all the features to match

The HTC One M8 was our favourite phone for the whole of 2014, but this year's entry the HTC One M9 is down at number 3 - still a highly commendable position given the immense competition. The camera is good, though not as brilliant as the two phone above, and everything else about the M9 is right up there with the very best money can buy.

• The Good: + Premium design | + Excellent build quality | + Great camera
• The Bad: - Expensive | - Weak battery performance | - Few improvements

Compare and filter: all the best HTC One M9 deals

Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge deals

Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge

Sexy looks that'll make everyone stop and look

The Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge is practically the same as the S6 at the top of this page but with a crucial difference - the screen curves down on both sides. It makes the phone look truly stunning and also enables a few nifty new features that aren't possible on flat-screened phones. Check out the deals we've found...

• The Good: + Eye-catching design | + Super-sharp screen | + Powerful performance | + Stunning camera
• The Bad: - VERY expensive | - Disappointing battery | - Edge screen offers little | - No microSD

Compare and filter: all the best HTC One M9 deals

LG G3 deals

LG G3

LG's flagship phone looks and performs excellently

We reckon the number 5 smartphone in the world right now is the LG G3. Like its predecessor, if you're after power and precision (perhaps over design and form) then this is a winner. The camera and battery combo is superb, and the improved user interface will woo you immediately.

• The Good: + Great screen | + Decent camera | + Improved interface
• The Bad: - Lacking in premium design | - Battery life is lower than expected

Compare and filter: all the best LG G3 deals

Sony Xperia Z3 Compact deals

Sony Xperia Z3 Compact

Has all the features of the Z3 but smaller

If you are looking for a feature-packed phone that looks fantastic and performs brilliantly, then you'll be very pleased with the Sony Xperia Z3 Compact. It's actually a smidgen smaller than the iPhone 6, which means it's still packing a good-sized screen but it's more manageable for small hands.

• The Good: + Great design | + Super screen | + Good battery life
• The Bad: - Camera isn't the best | - Sony's apps offer little

Compare and filter: all the best Sony Xperia Z3 Compact deals

Samsung Galaxy Note 4 deals

Samsung Galaxy Note 4

Samsung's latest Note is super-powerful

The Galaxy Note is the phone that made big screens fashionable and it's still the best phablet available today. The Samsung Galaxy Note 4's 5.7-inch screen is simply gorgeous, extending almost to the edge of the handset so you can still hold it on one hand comfortably.

• The Good: + Fantastic screen | + Powerful performance | + Excellent camera
• The Bad: - It's expensive

Compare and filter: all the best Samsung Galaxy Note 4 deals

iPhone 6 Plus deals

iPhone 6 Plus

The biggest iPhone ever is visually stunning

The iPhone 6 Plus is the best looking phablet around. Its specs don't match the Android powerhouses like the HTC One M8 and Samsung Galaxy Note 4, and its sheer size does make it tricky to hold, but there's no denying Apple's beautiful 5.5 incher is a winner.

• The Good: + Best looking phablet | + Great HD screen | + Strong camera
• The Bad: - It's very big | - Very expensive

Compare and filter: all the best iPhone 6 Plus deals

Sony Xperia Z3 deals

Sony Xperia Z3

A great all-rounder that offers great performance

Sony has been releasing new phones thick and fast in the last few years, and the latest in a long line of flagship handsets is the Sony Xperia Z3. It's got all the high-end specs you'd want, and the screen is the brightest of any in our top 10.

• The Good: + Brilliant battery | + PS4 Remote Play is excellent | + Premium build
• The Bad: - OS is a big buggy

Compare and filter: all the best Sony Xperia Z3 deals

Google Nexus 6 deals

Google Nexus 6

Google's biggest phone ever is excellent

Google chooses a different hardware partner for each yearly refresh of its Nexus flagship smartphone, and the Nexus 6 is built expertly by Motorola. It's certainly not a small phone: its near 6-inch display is about as big as it gets when it comes to smartphones and for that reason it's somewhat of an acquired taste, some will find it far too big, others will be absolutely besotted by it.

• The Good: + Super-size screen | + Latest versions of Android | + Great camera
• The Bad: - It's very large | - Expensive compared to Nexus 5

Compare and filter: all the best Google Nexus 6 deals

iPhone 5C deals

iPhone 5C

The cheapest iPhone currently available on contract

OS: iOS 8 | Screen size: 4-inch | Resolution: 1136 x 640 | Memory: 1GB | Storage: 8/16/32GB | Battery: 1,510mAh | Rear camera: 8MP | Front camera: 1.2MP

The iPhone 5C is essentially 2012's iPhone 5 repackaged in a new plastic shell and that means the technology inside is three years behind the iPhone 6. However, if you want to spend as little as possible while still getting an iPhone experience from your handset, the iPhone 5C is still a competent device and unlikely to disappoint with deals like this.

Compare and filter: all iPhone 5C deals

iPhone 5S deals

iPhone 5S

Last year's iPhone flagship is still a great phone, and now a lot cheaper!

The iPhone 5S used to be really quite expensive but these days you'll find plenty of great deals available with monthly fees under £30 even when you get the handset for free.

There's enough here out of the box to cater for most basic needs.

A bigscreen phone at a smallscreen price

The OnePlus One offers Samsung Galaxy S5 performance for less than half the price. If that doesn't make it attractive it also has a customisable OS and a 1080p display. There are a few downsides, but overall the OnePlus One is amazing value for money.
