When it comes to phones, the word “flagship” was tossed around a lot in 2015. We saw it get attached to devices that are priced at the midrange, as well as certain top-performing devices that were priced far lower than the usual “flagship” phones.
What’s more notable is that sales for mid-range devices have been soaring and overtaking the supposed “best phones” in the industry this year.
LG’s best phone of 2015, the G4, sold significantly less than the Oneplus Two, priced at $389 in contrast to the G4’s $499 unlocked model. This is why these mid-range offerings are worth the look.
Here’s are five of the ones that have impressed the most in 2015.
OnePlus 2
Touted as Oneplus’ “flagship killer” for 2015, we have seen the phone being released with much hype due to its invite system, wherein people can only buy the phone with an appropriate email invite. It was hot-selling too when 30,000Oneplus 2 units sold out within 64 seconds.
But hype aside, its Snapdragon 810, Adreno 430, and 4 GB RAM memory combo actually yielded an impressive 63,700 score in the Antutu benchmark, topping scores by other Snapdragon 810 powered handsets like the HTC One M9 and the LG G Flex 2. Other reviewer-pleasing features included a beautiful display and an affordable price of $389 for the 64GB edition. Given that only true “flagship” phones carry a Snapdragon 810 processor this year, you will be hard pressed to find a cheaper phone that has been defined as such.
