Are you charmed by the iPhone 14, but are you secretly more interested in good Android alternatives? That’s good, because in this article we list the five best for you.
Android alternatives for iPhone 14
After months of rumors, Apple has finally presented the iPhone 14 series. It consists of four models, the cheapest of which is no less than 1019 euros costs. You can also buy a lot of beautiful things in the other camp for less money. Below we highlight, in no particular order, the five best Android alternatives for the iPhone 14.
1. Samsung Galaxy S22
The most obvious alternative to the iPhone 14 is the Samsung Galaxy S22. Just like Apple’s entry-level, it has a 6.1-inch screen, which also has a higher refresh rate. This makes the display look a lot smoother. However, you do sacrifice on the battery life and the processor is less fast. Are you looking for an alternative to the iPhone 14 Pro Max? Then look at the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra. These devices, like iPhones, receive years of software updates, making them a good investment.
2. OnePlus 10T
Do you think speed and a large screen are important, but are you less attached to the best cameras or a whole pile of features that you never use? Then the OnePlus 10T is a great Android alternative, especially for the new iPhone 14 Plus. They both have a 6.7-inch OLED screen, but OnePlus’s refreshes the pixels 120 times per second, while the iPhone only refreshes 60 times. Charging is also much faster: it is completely full within twenty minutes.
3. Google Pixel 6 (Pro)
Like Apple, Google made its own chip for the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro: the Tensor. It’s not as fast as Apple’s processors, but it’s fine for the vast majority of users. In addition, the smartphones have good screens, good cameras and a solid battery life. In addition, they run on the purest form of Android. If you’re not in a big hurry, you can also wait for the announcement of the Pixel 7 and 7 Pro on October 6. They may be slightly more expensive than the current models, but will still be much cheaper than the new iPhones.
4. Motorola Edge 30 Pro/Ultra
Motorola has also been making beautiful phones in the higher segment lately. The Motorola Edge 30 Pro is a great all-rounder, with a fast chip, a beautiful design and a good battery life. You can read more about this in our review of the Edge 30 Pro. A nice fact is that the software is very clean and you do not have to work with all kinds of unnecessary software.
5. Asus Zenfone 9
Are you looking for a compact smartphone? Unfortunately, Apple has not announced a “mini” model in the iPhone 14 series. Fortunately, Asus recently launched a relatively small and very successful device: the Asus Zenfone 9. It also runs on the super fast Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 processor, has a 5.9-inch OLED screen and an excellent battery life. You can read more about this phone in our review of the Zenfone 9.
