May is bringing about more than just Spring flowers, it’s also changing up the list of must-have Android phones and adding in something we don’t normally see on this list: a mid-range device. Typically, the best-of-the-best is relegated to the most expensive devices around, but there are plenty of reasons why this isn’t always the case. Find out why in our list of the very best Android phones to buy in May 2019!Google Pixel 3aWe’ve shied away from including Google’s Pixel 3 family on our top 10 list since launch because, well, the phone has been plagued with bugs and problems from the start. Google has a chance to start over with its promise of delivering a true, solid pure Android experience with the Pixel 3a and Pixel 3a XL.These phones offer the same everyday experience as the Pixel 3, seemingly minus the bugs, for half the price. The OnePlus 7 Pro marks the absolute most expensive phone that OnePlus has created by quite a wide margin. At well over $100 more than last year's OnePlus 6T, itself the most expensive phone OnePlus has ever made, the can no longer hold fast to the title of 'Flagship Killer', as it is now a full-fledged flagship in its own right.What makes the OnePlus 7 Pro worth it when compared to every other phone on this list?

Best Android Cell Phones 2019

Value and speed. While it's nowhere near as affordable as previous generations of phones from OnePlus, the OnePlus 7 ups the ante in many ways, including a pop-up selfie camera as well as a triple camera system around back.In addition to that, OnePlus is sticking with its mantra of offering more speed than the competition by providing a 90Hz OLED display on the front, capable of delivering 50% higher framerates than the vast majority of other phones on the market, including every other phone on this list (all of which have screens that run at 60Hz). This means the phone feels buttery smooth in every app and game, and the new higher resolution panel means it looks better doing it too.T-Mobile is selling only the higher spec model in the US, coming in at $699, while OnePlus's website will be selling all versions of the OnePlus 7 and OnePlus 7 Pro on its website.

Samsung’s Galaxy S10 is the most feature-rich, well-rounded set of phones on the market, bar none. There’s little the Galaxy S10 family does wrong, all four phones the lineup as a matter of fact, and it’s far harder to find negative points about the phone than it is to find good ones.We’ve highlighted our ‘Good Review’ here specifically because this phone line offers so much good in so sleek a package. Sporting a brand new design that features less bezel than ever and just a small camera cutout in the display, the Galaxy S10’s build and design looks and feels better than any Samsung device before it. Huawei’s unmatched fusion of camera software and hardware has reached a new height with the P30 Pro, which features the industry’s first and can digitally zoom up to 50x.

Fallout 4 how many mods is too many people. Instead seeing one’s work appear under a different name has to be frustrating.On the flip side, many of the Xbox One gamers who transferred the PC mods over to console claim to have done so specifically because the original creators refused to. Some have even gone so far as to call the original mod creators “lazy” for not transferring their work. Still, having someone take credit for another’s work is never acceptable, and the hope is that Bethesda will work to check the legitimacy of all mod submissions.That isn’t to say the original mod creators wouldn’t want their work on the Xbox One, but we’re sure they would rather have made the jump on their own.

That’s not a typo, the camera really is that stellar, and it’s not just zooming that’s this great either.Huawei has kept the ultra-wide angle lens from the Mate 20 Pro, complete with autofocus and super-macro mode, in addition to the ultra-high detail 40MP main sensor too. It’s a camera experience like no other, and something to seriously take into consideration if you care about cameras at all.The bonus? You can actually order one if you live in the US as well, contrary to what headlines might make you think about the state of Huawei products in the country. LG’s 8th generation flagship has gotten a lot of grief around the web, and for little reason when you boil. To start things off, the G8 packs a brand-new crystal sound OLED, which adds stereo speakers to an LG flagship for the first time. This, in addition to the award-winning audio output via the 3.5mm jack at the bottom, creates the absolute best combination of sound experiences you’ll find on any modern flagship, even if you’re not an audiophile.LG’s modified design also features a larger battery in addition to removing the camera hump; something many users and critics alike have pined about for years. Then, there’s the addition of a third camera for most regions, which adds in a telephoto lens that complements the already excellent ultra-wide angle one that other LG flagships have been shipping with for years.LG’s vision of Android 9 Pie includes more customization than Google’s version, as well as one of the absolute best camera interfaces on the market.

Anyone who’s even remotely interested in starting their own YouTube channel, or just filming excellent everyday content with more manual controls than any other flagship offers should seriously consider LG’s latest, which can features manual video controls up to 240FPS at 1080p resolution. While the OnePlus 7 Series, it marks the most expensive pair of phones OnePlus has ever launched. The OnePlus 6T, conversely, can be found for significantly less and offers an incredible experience that's still blazing fast, no matter what you do with it. It’s not quite as inexpensive as the Google Pixel 3a but it offers a significantly faster experience than that phone, including more RAM and storage.OnePlus has had a stellar update schedule lately, including fast updates to the latest versions of Android without all those nasty bugs that regularly come with early-release software. It also regularly claims the title of fastest phones in the land with every new release, something that’s not easily overtaken even by newer generations of phones.OnePlus was among the first manufacturers to debut a phone with an in-glass fingerprint scanner, and while it’s not quite as fast as a dedicated fingerprint scanner, it opens up a new gesture system to quick-launch apps without needing to even raise your thumb.

HONOR has been in the mindset of many when it comes to good, inexpensive phones, but not often in the minds of those looking for a phone that also has a great camera. That all changed with the HONOR View20, a phone that packed in a brand new generation 48-megapixel Sony sensor that does it all. It’s not often that a single-camera can rival the experience of phones with multiple cameras, but this phone certainly can.The View20 sports the very same processor and nearly identical operating system as the Huawei P30 series, yet it costs quite a bit less money. Part of this is the reduction in camera quantity, while the other is a less impressive LCD display, but it all ends in a similar experience without having to save up all that extra dough.It’s an excellent fusion of speed, where the View20 sits side-by-side with every other flagship on the market, and quality optics and camera software, in addition to running the latest version of Android as well.

Looking for a fantastic mid-ranger with a particular focus on camera and speed? Xiaomi Mi9While the Pixel 3a is the only actual mid-range specced device on this list, the Xiaomi Mi9 is only priced like one. While the LG G8 is available and offers much of, not all regions received the model with three cameras. For those regions, particularly the US, the LG V40 ThinQ is still an excellent way to experience some of the best LG has ever made. This includes a similar build and design to the G8, the same amazing vibration motors, high quality OLED screen and fantastic overall performance.The V40 is likely an easier buy for some as it’s been heavily discounted at a number of carriers and may be an even more attractive offer than the G8 if price is a main concern.The biggest draw of LG’s flagships continues to be the manual photo and video modes in its camera software which enables DSLR-level control over the image quality. While some phones offer some manual controls over photo modes, no one else offers this same functionality in video mode, and that’s really where LG shines. We’ve been using the LG V-series on our YouTube channel since 2017 as a main camera, and it continues to be a joy to use every time.

The Galaxy S10 might be the latest Samsung flagship, but there’s nothing that’s quite like a Galaxy Note phone to deliver the complete experience. The Galaxy Note 9 was the complete package in 2018, garnering our award for phone of the year (the first time a Samsung phone has won that in some time).

There were many, many reasons for this, but mainly because the phone wasn’t lacking in any real areas.Folks that don’t want a notch or punch-hole in their display will be happy with the small bezels on the Note 9, which aren’t quite as tiny as the Galaxy S10, but also don’t feature any portions of the display removed. Aside from this fairly minor cosmetic difference, the Galaxy Note 9 features the veritable S-Pen, a tool that millions of consumers have used and loved for years, and one that sets the Galaxy Note series apart from every other phone on the market.The S-Pen is more than just a simple stylus. It’s powered by a Wacom digitizer that’s completely separate from the touch digitizer that recognizes your fingers, meaning inputs from your fingers register as completely separate from the S-Pen itself. This makes the Note 9 the best note-taking and doodle-making machine around, something that’s especially helpful if you’re someone who regularly finds themselves taking notes or jotting down ideas throughout the day.Want the phone that does it all?

The Note 9 still qualifies as the phone that does everything you need and likely more.
