The Trusted Reviews Awards 2025 winners are in, and here, we’re shining a light on the mobile devices that impressed us most in testing over the past year.
It has been a big year for phones, tablets and wearables. On-device AI has become genuinely useful, battery efficiency has taken a leap forward, and mobile photography has advanced with smarter processing and larger sensors.
Foldables also feel more durable and mainstream, while Android and iPad rivals have turned tablets into true productivity machines. Even value-focused phones have improved vastly, continuing to blur the line between them and flagships.
Our team has spent the year stress-testing everything from pocketable clamshells to pro-grade camera phones, slim but powerful tablets, and the wearables that deliver the best insights into your health and fitness. Below, you’ll find our hand-picked winners – the mobile products that really set the standard in 2025.
