Having owned the previous models I skipped Google Pixel 10 Pro XL and Samsung Flip⁷. The Pixel 9 Pro XL was my favorite last year.
This year I sold my Flip⁶ I got at launch and a few months later bought it again. Deal was too good to pass up.
I also caved since my Philippines trip is on hold and got the new iPhone 17 Pro Max, Cosmic Orange of course. I didn't get the 16.
The other night my borther got home from Japan with my Xiaomi 15t Pro Mocha Hold.
I said it many times if I wasn't an addict I would only buy Xiaomi and Oppo phones.
Next week OnePlus is releasing the 15 (my last was the 12R). I would definitely pick it up but I got the Xiaomi and I'm also planning a trip to LA but like It said I'm an addict so who knows.

Right now Xiaomi takes it as my favorite phone of 2025.
