Best Smartphones to Gift Your Loved Ones This Christmas 2016

November 28, 2016

Everyone wants to be the proud owner of a cool smartphone. If you’ve got money to splurge, buying a classy smartphone for a family member may be a great idea. However, before you go smartphone shopping, make sure you know something about the person’s smartphone tastes so as to not disappoint them. Just do a bit of homework before you make your choice. Find out if the person likes an Android, iPhone or is looking for something other than these two. Be careful about your choice of color and don’t pick last year’s model. That said, here are my selections of the best smartphones to gift your loved ones this Christmas.

Samsung may have slipped up on its Note 7 may have been on fire for all the wrong reasons, but that doesn’t make the Galaxy 7 any less awesome.
