AMOLED is a relatively new technology that is enjoying considerable popularity among consumers. More and more manufacturers are releasing models with this type of matrix instead of IPS. Moreover, we are not only talking about flagship models from top manufacturers; smartphones with an Amoled panel can be purchased at a price of 10,000 rubles.
Unlike LCD, which uses liquid crystals, an AMOLED display runs on organic light-emitting diodes controlled by an active matrix of thin-film transistors.
The technology has a number of advantages:
- increased contrast, color rendition;
- reduced panel thickness;
- energy efficiency;
The rating contains the best smartphones with an Amoled display of 2021. The list includes not only models from the dominant Samsung brand, but also phones from other manufacturers, including relatively inexpensive ones.
Xiaomi Poco X3 NFC
- screen: 6.67″ (2400×1080) 120 Hz
- RAM: 6 GB
- memory: 128 GB, memory card slot
- 4 cameras: 64 MP, 13 MP, 2 MP, 2 MP
- battery: 5160 mAh
- processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon 732G
The ranking of large smartphones in 2021 opens with an inexpensive model with a 6.67-inch display.
What the Poco X3 NFC offers - in terms of long battery life, good performance and a high 120Hz screen refresh rate - is even more impressive due to the low price.
Even though the processor of this model is not the most powerful, all games run perfectly on it at high graphics settings and with fps of 30 and above. If this is not enough for you, then sales of Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro with a Snapdragon 860 processor will soon start on Aliexpress.
The rear camera, with a 64MP main module and f/1.9 aperture, is surprisingly capable for a phone of this price, delivering excellent detail and colors that are vibrant without being too acidic.
Pros : 120 Hz display, good photo and video quality, a hybrid memory card slot, 3.5 mm audio jack, fast charging.
Cons : advertising in the shell, very small LED indicator, conversation even at minimum volume can be heard by others.
No. 7 – Honor X10 Max
Price: 24,990 rubles
Our rating continues the creation of the Honor brand. The model offers the owner an excellent 7.09-inch screen, which is great for gaming and surfing the Internet. The picture is complemented by stereo sound, which is rare in this price segment. The Dimensity 800 processor allows the device to run modern games at maximum speed and not experience problems in other operating modes.
Battery capacity – 5000 mAh. Even if you play a lot of games, the gadget will last a day on a single charge. In addition, the device has a minijack, and the fingerprint sensor is located on the right side. The only drawback is the lack of a smartphone on official sale in Russia.
Honor X10 Max
Apple iPhone 12 Pro Max
- screen: 6.7″ (2778×1284) 60 Hz
- RAM: 6 GB
- memory: 256 GB
- 3 cameras: 12 MP, 12 MP, 12 MP
- battery: 3687 mAh
- processor: Apple A14 Bionic
Technically, the iPhone 12 Pro Max boasts the highest resolution display ever on an iPhone. And its Ceramic Shield protection is marketed by Apple as glass that is supposedly “stronger than the glass of any smartphone.”
On the other hand, I would like to see Apple ProMotion 120 Hz technology for the first time on the iPhone, but it was clearly not intended for this generation of Apple devices.
The new boxy form factor combined with the Pro Max's larger size presents an ergonomic challenge that makes it difficult to hold. But if this doesn’t scare you, then the rest of the smartphone will not disappoint you. It has a super-fast Apple A14 Bionic processor, impressive battery life (almost two days of use on a single charge), and supports fast and wireless charging with Qi or MagSafe technology.
The 12 Pro and Pro Max are the first Appke devices to feature a 3D ToF LiDAR scanner for depth sensing and augmented reality. They are also the world's first phones to boast built-in 10-bit Dolby Vision video capture, as well as support for RAW shooting. This is all quite impressive to say the least.
Pros : the case is protected from moisture and dust according to the IP68 standard, excellent stereo sound, 5G support.
Cons : the case is very easily soiled, the screen refresh rate is only 60 Hz, a case is required, since the camera sticks out from the case.
Sony Xperia 1
The Sony Xperia 1 seems quite compact - in terms of the width of the body, but it stretches upward - all this thanks to the unusual screen aspect ratio of 21:9. The diagonal of the latter is 6.5 inches.
This is a completely new flagship from Sony, which, among other things, received a completely new triple main camera (main sensor, wide-angle, telephoto lens) with night mode, the flagship Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 processor, 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of ROM, a fingerprint scanner in the side key switch off, water and dust protection IP65/68.
Users note an excellent screen, a good camera, great sound, and decent battery life.
- Screen diagonal: 6.5 inches
- Screen resolution: 1644×3840
- Weight: 191 g
- Number of SIM cards: 2
- Processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon 855
- Memory capacity: 128 GB
- RAM capacity: 6 GB
- Battery capacity: 3330 mAh
- Rear camera: triple 12/12/12 MP
- Front camera: 8 MP
- Memory card support: yes
Huawei Mate 40 Pro
- screen: 6.76″ (2772×1344) 90 Hz
- RAM: 8 GB
- memory: 256 GB, memory card slot
- 3 cameras: 50 MP, 20 MP, 12 MP
- battery: 4400 mAh
- processor: Huawei Kirin 9000
Apart from the huge 6.7-inch display with a 90Hz refresh rate, this phablet has no shortage of premium features, including IP68 water resistance, wireless charging and 8GB of RAM.
What's most impressive is the camera, which features a 13MP front-facing lens with a 3D sensor, along with a 50MP wide-angle lens, a 20MP ultra-wide-angle lens, and a 12MP telephoto lens on the back. The latest lens offers one of the sharpest zooms ever seen in a smartphone camera.
All this only underscores the disappointment of the lack of Google services. Of course, the Huawei branded application store is replenished every day, but it may not have your favorite game or other application you need.
Pros : Expandable memory storage, stereo speakers, excellent cameras, very bright screen, super fast 66W charging, screen protector pre-installed from the factory, NFC included.
Cons : lack of Google services.
No. 3 – OPPO Find X2
Price: 73,000 rubles
The top bronze goes to OPPO Find X2. This is a device with the fastest charging on the market, its power reaches 65 Watts. Thanks to it, a full cycle of resource replenishment lasts only 40 minutes. Another distinctive feature of the model is a 6.7-inch screen with 2K resolution and a refresh rate of 120 Hz. Like the previous competitor, the maximum frequency is available at any resolution.
Otherwise, this is a typical flagship with a top-end design, a front camera embedded in the screen and a powerful Snapdragon 865 processor. Also pleasing is the stereo sound, which is rich in all frequencies, including bass. In addition to the cost, I would like to criticize the gadget for its battery. Still, 4200 mAh is not enough for a battery in the premium segment.
OPPO Find X2
OnePlus 8 Pro
- screen: 6.78″ (3168×1440) 120 Hz
- RAM: 12 GB
- memory: 256 GB
- 4 cameras: 48 MP, 8 MP, 48 MP, 5 MP
- battery: 4510 mAh
- Processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon 865
This model has an excellent AMOLED screen, with Quad HD+ resolution and HDR10+ support. Its refresh rate is 120 Hz, which the more expensive iPhone 12 Pro Max cannot boast of. The screen is curved, which looks very nice, but there is a problem with phantom clicks and applications when you need to highlight something at the edges.
This smartphone has many other great features and specifications, such as a powerful Snapdragon 865 chip, IP68-certified water resistance, one of the best cameras, and even Warp Charge 30 wireless charging.
Pros : performance, photo and video quality, stereo speakers, 5G support, 30 W fast charging.
Cons : the rear camera sticks out a lot from the body, there is no 3.5 mm audio jack, the battery drains very quickly, there is no slot for a memory card.
Honor 9X 4/128GB
If you need a large FullView display without notches, you can turn your attention to the Honor 9X - it has a pop-up front camera, so there are no notches on the screen.
The diagonal of the matrix reaches 6.59 inches with a resolution of 2340×1080 pixels. The platform consists of a proven HiSilicon Kirin 710 chip of our own production, memory capacity - 4 GB of RAM and 128 GB of internal memory. A powerful 4000 mAh battery with support for fast charging is installed. There is an NFC module.
- Screen diagonal: 6.59 inches
- Screen resolution: 2340×1080
- Weight: 197 g
- Number of SIM cards: 2
- Processor: HiSilicon Kirin 710
- Memory capacity: 128 GB
- RAM capacity: 4 GB
- Battery capacity: 4000 mAh
- Rear camera: dual 48/2 MP
- Front camera: 16 MP
- Memory card support: yes
Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G
- screen: 6.8″ (3200×1440) 120 Hz
- RAM: 12 GB
- memory: 128 GB
- 4 cameras: 108 MP, 12 MP, 10 MP, 10 MP
- battery: 5000 mAh
- processor: Samsung Exynos 2100
In the 'display area', the Galaxy S21 Ultra delivers something the S20 series couldn't - the ability to simultaneously enjoy maximum WQHD+ resolution and an adaptive refresh rate of up to 120Hz.
What's more, for the first time on a Galaxy S device, there's an expansive 6.8-inch panel. The Ultra also supports the S-Pen stylus, which somewhat encroaches on the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra's niche, provided you're willing to shell out for the S Pen itself and a compatible storage case.
Top-end performance, the best cameras in the Samsung Galaxy series with dual telephoto lenses, 8K video recording and optical stabilization, as well as full IP68 water and dust protection make this smartphone an excellent choice if you need a large and powerful 2021 flagship.
Pros : wireless charging, fast 25-watt charging, protective film already applied, excellent sound from stereo speakers.
Cons : price, discharges quickly despite the large battery, lack of a slot for a memory card and a power supply for a charger included.
↑ The best phones with a large screen
The top largest smartphones include the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 with the Android 7.1 operating system and a 6.3-inch display. It is the flagship of the South Korean company. With its large size, it almost looks like a tablet. The device has a high degree of versatility. The Galaxy's monochrome metal body is equipped with 128 or 512 GB of memory, a 4000 mAh battery, and allows you to work all day without recharging.
↑ Xeomi Mi Max 2
Mobile device with operating system: Android 7.0 with a large 6.44-inch display. It has 64 GB of memory and a large battery. Equipped with a 12 megapixel camera.
↑ Sony Xperia XA1 Ultra
Japanese phone with Android 7.0 operating system. The device display is 6 inches. The side frames have been reduced. There are no touch keys; on-screen buttons are used instead. The rear camera has a 23-megapixel sensor with optical image stabilization. The memory capacity is not optimal, but you can store a lot of records.
↑ Xiaomi Mi Mix 2
The Chinese-made device has a display: 5.99 inches, IPS, 2160 x 1080 pixels, it has side and top frames.
ZTE Blade V2020 Smart
- screen: 6.82″ (1640×720)
- RAM: 4 GB
- memory: 64 GB, memory card slot
- 4 cameras: 16 MP, 8 MP, 2 MP, 2 MP
- battery: 5000 mAh
- processor: Unisoc SC9863A
This inexpensive smartphone with a large screen has a capacious battery, and something that many more expensive models do not have - reverse charging. But it does not have fast charging.
The rear camera cluster consists of 4 lenses and an LED flash. According to user reviews, it takes mediocre pictures at any time of the day, and has problems with focus (it does not always focus quickly).
However, if your goal is not to take photographs, but to use your smartphone as a tenacious workhorse, then the Blade V2020 Smart is an ideal option. Even modern games will run on it, only at low settings.
Pros : NFC, fingerprint scanner in the power button, DTS sound, long battery life.
Cons : lack of fast charging, mediocre photo and video quality, low screen resolution.
↑ Inexpensive smartphones with a large screen
Large smartphone screens are easy to use. Watching movies, videos, reading an audiobook - all these operations are performed easily and without problems. The modern mobile phone market is replete with a huge selection of budget smartphones with large screens.
↑ ASUS ZenFone Go ZB690KG
↑ The list of big and good phones includes ASUS ZenFone Go ZB690KG.
This device at a budget price is in demand by buyers who need a phone that can be used away from the charger for a long time. It has a 6.9-inch screen, that is, its diagonal is like a 7-inch tablet. A person with a small build will not be able to handle it with one hand. However, such a large display has a low resolution of 1024x600 pixels, so you can see the appearance of a grainy picture on the screen. Memory capacity is only 1 GB. An 8 megapixel camera cannot provide high quality photographs. The battery power of 3480 mAp allows the device to operate for a long time without recharging.
- Doogee X7 Pro
The Doogee X7 Pro smartphone meets the requirements of price-quality ratio.
The 6-inch Full HD screen does not quite satisfy the image quality; the 3700 mAh battery will allow the phone to work for a long time without recharging.
↑ Lenovo Phab 2
It is considered a decent device with a diagonal of 6.4 inches and HD resolution. When watching a video, you don't have to look at the screen. The 13-megapixel camera can provide relatively high-quality photographs; there is internal software for editing on a large screen.
3 GB RAM, 4-core Mediatek M8735 at 1300 MHz with the help of the Mali-T720 MP2 graphics accelerator provide the possibility of different settings for the most modern computer games.
Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra
- screen: 6.9″ (3088×1440) 120 Hz
- RAM: 8 GB
- memory: 256 GB, memory card slot
- 4 cameras: 108 MP, 12 MP, 12 MP
- battery: 4500 mAh
- processor: Samsung Exynos 990
This is the largest smartphone with support for the S Pen stylus. The Galaxy Note 20 Ultra also boasts an excellent screen, thanks to its WQHD+ resolution and 120Hz adaptive refresh rate (even if they can't work in tandem), not to mention excellent colors, viewing angles and overall brightness. This model is one of the best frameless smartphones of 2021.
There is no need to worry about the performance of the phablet; the 7-nm Samsung Exynos 990 processor paired with the energy-efficient Mali-G77 MP11 GPU accelerator will cope with any games at maximum graphics settings and high fps.
The rear camera with 5x optical zoom and 50x digital zoom is capable of taking photos comparable to amateur cameras, and can also shoot video at 8K resolution.
Pros : the latest Gorilla Glass Victus, fast 25-watt charging, wireless and reverse charging, stereo speakers, hybrid memory card slot.
Cons : not the most energy efficient processor, gets hot under load.

An expensive and very fast phone from HUAWEI with a large Full HD+ screen. The frameless OLED display of the gadget is almost limitless: only the island of the dual front camera catches the eye. By the way, it is precisely because of the quality of the pictures that most users fell in love with this smart phone. It’s not for nothing that the device made it into the top 5 of the DXOMARK rating. Leica optics are installed here, thanks to which the pictures are detailed in any situation, and 3 and 10x zoom allow you to zoom in on objects without losing clarity.

TECNO Pouvoir 4
- screen: 7″ (1640×720)
- RAM: 3 GB
- memory: 32 GB, memory card slot
- 4 cameras: 13 MP
- battery: 6000 mAh
- processor: MediaTek Helio A22 (MT6761)
One of the biggest smartphones of 2021 is also one of the smartphones with the largest battery. Its 20.9:5 aspect ratio display takes up 90.55% of the body. Unfortunately, its resolution is low, which is why grain is visible if you look closely at the image.
Multitasking is not a problem for the TECNO Pouvoir 4, except for occasional slowdowns when running RAM-intensive applications. However, with such everyday tasks as browsing the web with several open tabs, reading social networks, working with email, listening to podcasts, etc., this device will cope with a bang.
The main camera consists of four cameras: 13 MP, two 2 MP lenses and an additional AI lens. There is an 8-megapixel selfie camera on the front.
With enough patience and the right lighting, you can get decent photos to share on social media.
Pros : stereo speakers, Google Assistant button (works even when the phone is locked), headphone jack, long battery life.
Cons : no NFC, no fast charging, poor performance in games, photos come out blurry in low light.
Top 1. F+ Ezzy 2
Rating (2021): 4.74
80 reviews from resources were taken into account: Yandex.Market, DNS, Svyaznoy
Best price The cheapest phone for the older generation. Combines an affordable price and a durable body with a loud speaker.
- Characteristics
Country of origin: China
- Average price: 1590 rub.
- Screen: TN 320×240 2.31″
- Processor: MediaTek MT6261, 0.26 GHz
- Memory: 32 MB, separate microSD slot up to 16 GB
- Cameras: main 0.30 MP
- Battery capacity: 1400 mAh
- NFC: no
A push-button telephone for older people, characterized by good battery life, a durable body and a readable, although not the largest, screen. The granny phone is equipped with an SOS button: it is highlighted in bright red on the back of the case and is activated immediately after a few seconds of pressing and holding. It is very simple to operate - the menu is intuitive, quick and easy to configure. In addition, there is a separate slot for a memory card and 2 slots for SIM cards. True, the device does not work with all operators. Tele2 has practically no 2G networks, which is why a phone with such a SIM periodically loses connection.
Samsung Galaxy Z Fold2
- screen: 7.6″ (2208×1768)
- RAM: 12 GB
- memory: 256 GB
- 3 cameras: 12 MP, 12 MP, 12 MP
- battery: 4500 mAh
- Processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 Plus
The Z Fold 2 is a two-in-one device unlike anything else on the market. When folded, it's a chunky but basic smartphone with a 6.2-inch Super AMOLED display on the outside. Open it up like a book by unfolding the internal 7.6-inch Dynamic AMOLED screen and you've got a tablet that's about the same size as Apple's popular iPad Mini.
The external screen is useful for everyday things: messaging, checking the weather, quickly searching Google, etc.
The interior display is fantastic; big, bright, rich and clear. It runs at 120Hz, eliminating any potential issues with scrolling lag. The crease in the middle of the screen is a compromise necessary to fold it in half.
Z Fold 2 is equipped with a no longer top-end, but still among the top five, Snapdragon 865+ processor from Qualcomm. Other Samsung phones, like the Note 20 Ultra, have their own Exynos 990 chip, which is slightly inferior to the Snapdragon in terms of performance and power efficiency.
With 12 GB of RAM on board, Fold2 can run any number of applications simultaneously.
Battery life is surprisingly good considering the number and size of screens. This model lasts about 32 hours on a single charge with the screens on.
The smartphone's camera is excellent, although it cannot be called top-end. The triple camera has optical stabilization and a telephoto camera with 2x optical zoom. In normal lighting it is difficult to find fault with the quality of the images, but in the dark, even with night mode, there are digital noises and artifacts. You can shoot video in 4K at 60fps.
Pros : powerful hardware, the case does not heat up under load, support for 5G networks, NFC for contactless payments, fast and wireless charging.
Cons : very high price, mobile software is still poorly optimized for this form factor, there is no slot for a memory card.
AMOLED screen
Phones with Amoled screens are not uncommon. They can be found both in state-priced cars from China and in advanced South Korean models.
Meizu 16Xs - inexpensive, with a good camera
A simplified version of the flagship model.
A special feature is the ultra-thin upper frame where the front camera fits. The absence of a unibrow makes the design unusual. Like other flagships, Meizu 16Xs has an AMOLED screen from Samsung with FHD+ resolution (2232x1080) and a pixel density of 403 ppi. The aspect ratio of 18.5 to 9 made it possible to maintain the relatively compact dimensions of the device, while the screen occupies 84.7% of the area of the front panel of the smartphone. This is a high figure, given the absence of a teardrop neckline, unibrow, and a pop-up selfie camera. 430 nits of brightness and 100,000:1 contrast ratio provide bright, rich images with natural color reproduction that are clearly visible in bright sunlight. The performance of the smartphone is based on the 11nm Snapdragon 675. This is both a productive and energy-efficient solution that allows you to play heavy games at maximum settings.
The Meizu 16Xs has a triple camera led by a 48-megapixel Sony IMX 586 sensor.
Advantages:
- display;
- powerful processor;
- 3600 mAh battery with fast charging support;
- connector for connecting wired headphones.
Flaws:
- there is no slot for memory cards;
- NFC is not provided.

Modification of OPPO Reno 2 without a number of flagship features. It has a less powerful Mediatek Helio P90 chipset and no additional microphone or telephoto lens. This solution allowed us to reduce the final price by 40%, relative to the flagship. Despite the lower processing power, OPPO Reno 2Z can easily handle all tasks, including games.
At the same time, the smartphone retains a 6.5-inch FHD+ AMOLED display.

Bright, glossy monoblock with good characteristics. The A71 has a Super AMOLED screen with a resolution of 2400x1080 pixels. The 6.7-inch diagonal is slightly elongated due to the 20:9 aspect ratio. The display generates a high-quality picture, typical of Samsung panels. The front camera is integrated into the center of the matrix, and an optical fingerprint scanner is also located under the screen.
The brightness and contrast reserves are enough to comfortably use the device under any conditions. In the settings you can set scaling, activate the blue spectrum filter, and adjust color rendering.
The Samsung Galaxy A71 has an 8nm Qualcomm Snapdragon 730 processor, 6GB of RAM, which provides excellent performance. On the rear panel there is a quad camera headed by 64-megapixel optics.

Flaws:
- plastic case that gets scratched;

Black Shark 2 has a 6.39-inch AMOLED screen with FHD+ resolution, a brightness range of 1.8-430 nits, and infinite contrast. The phone differs from its competitors in its reduced touch response time – 34.7 ms, which will give an advantage in some games. The updated sensor responds sensitively to touch.
The top-end Snapdragon 855 Plus chipset with a multi-layer cooling system is responsible for performance, which ensures long-term use of the smartphone at maximum performance without overheating.
Advantages:
- top performance;
- new generation internal memory;
- fast charging at 27 W;

Xiaomi Mi Note 10 is equipped with a 6.47-inch diagonal AMOLED screen with FullHD+ image support. A compact teardrop-shaped cutout where the selfie camera is hidden, and the visual absence of physical sides provide a lot of emotions while playing games, watching movies, and working with programs. The bright, contrasting screen is protected by impact-resistant glass with an oleophobic coating.
Advantages:
- design;
- NFC;
- frameless screen;
- pentachamber;
- 5260 mAh battery;
- fast 30-watt charging;
- Qualcomm Snapdragon 730G platform.
Flaws:

Huawei P smart Z 4/64GB
