I'm gonna leave it up with pocket now and 2015 has been a very interesting year companies have done an amazing job at raising the bar of their smartphone quality and price tags have actually begun to drop we've got great cameras we've got great designs we've got great build quality but the biggest question is can we actually narrow these down and define a perfect smartphone for 2015 so off the bat let's just be clear no we can't define a perfect smartphone because the needs of people are different there's no such thing as a perfect thing in this world and as technology evolves year over a year so do the needs of people think about it 10 years ago we would have never considered having cameras on phones and now we judge a smartphone for its camera quality the concept of a smart phone alone was completely unknown to us many years ago and now it's what we all want you actually did a little experiment here in pocket now because we all come from different countries different backgrounds and we have very different tastes we asked each editor if they would stop working for PocketNow today and they had to pick one phone to use for the rest of the next two years which one would it be what would be that ideal phone that they would trust their time over the next two years you're gonna be shocked with the responses Michael Fisher's our review extraordinaire he needs no introduction he's pretty much tested the hottest phones this year and out of all of them believe it or not he chose the blackberry print yeah I know the BlackBerry proof surely there are no software updates guaranteed but according to Michael the design is great he loves blackberries he considers himself a weirdo and he loves the community that's backing BlackBerry up to the point where he has a lot of expectations over the future of the Prive even if blackberry doesn't do a good job at it an't on the other hand to fight it over the iPhone 6s according to him he wants good battery life a great camera he wants good performance and he also wants a fingerprint scanner that actually works all the time and according to him the only phone that's able to do all that in a package that's not the size of a phablet is the iPhone 6s trust me he's tested pretty much every Android phone out there as well and yeah he inclines for the iPhone success at the end our own Adam doubt was torn between the Galaxy s6 active and the galaxy note5 the active is probably one of our favorite rugged phones this year and brings great camera quality great battery life and a design that only a mother could love but far better than any of the other ones out there the only problem is that he values that camera quality with added security features as well and even Samsung pay and the only phone that could actually bring all that matched up was the galaxy note 5 and we kind of agree Adam Lane is our own Windows Phone expert and even a professional photographer and according to him if he had to pick he wouldn't choose the Lumia 1020 from two years ago up to the point where he actually has a Lumia 1020 in its box ready in case the one that he's currently using has a problem according to Adam there is no phone out there with a better camera than Lumia 1020 and the build quality is also top-notch obviously if we asked our own designated Android expert mr. Joe Levi what his preference would be we kind of knew it would be the Google Nexus 6p and we don't blame him Google finally figured out the Nexus line of with this phone they've got great build quality a great display an amazing camera and the price tag is not necessarily that bad but obviously you have to start at the entry level so far this is one of our favorite phones this year and definitely a good idea if you want to continue with stock Android for the next few years and if you asked mr. Jules Wang after testing a ton of really good phones this year he actually in corn for the Alcatel OneTouch Idol 3 and he makes a very solid point surely this is a budget-minded premium mid-range err but you're not really cheeping out here it's a great 1080p display it's a great experience with the JBL speakers of the performance is top-notch in addition to great battery life and the price tag will not burn a hole in your pocket it's probably one of the best phones of the year if you are looking for that budget-minded tear I know a lot of you are and finally even though I'm infamous for being the group's iPhone guy believe it or not phone that I would pick would be the galaxy note5 and it has to do for a couple of reasons starting with the fact that the company finally figured out essentials like the camera quality in addition to the performance of that camera we've got great build quality great battery life and we actually have a great suite of applications that back the S Pen up this time even though you're rarely ever going to use it TouchWiz has gotten better and I just feel that you are getting more for your money for me productivity is a big deal and I find it pointless for you to pay money for tablets and not get an enhanced experience for all that screen real estate I feel that no other company does it better than Samsung when it comes to that but then again that is just my two cents bottom line is yeah believe it or not even us in the industry battle over what our perfect smartphone should be because again we come from different backgrounds our needs are totally different and we all live in different parts of the world so just as we have different choices we know you do too and we would love to know that in the comments down below which would be your top pick your ideal smartphone for 2015 maybe you would have to choose that phone for the next two years leave us a comment down below and while you're at it make sure you also follow us on social media so scriptor youtube channel as well he could follow me on twitter and underscore to be better on instagram and i'm it'll be better please look this video thumbs up if you liked what you saw I am hi never be better thank you very much for watching we'll see you on the next one
