The top 20 smartphones?

You might wonder how there can possibly be so many different smartphones worth buying.

Well, believe it, because each phone here is a great choice. It was a big struggle to figure out how to rank them all.

And it's only going to get harder. This list doesn't include phones we haven't reviewed yet, such as LG's new V30. That device and several others will almost certainly earn a place here.

But for now, here's our list of the best smartphones you can buy.

Note: Prices may vary depending on the retailer.

20. BlackBerry Classic

If you're still a BlackBerry fan, you'll love the Classic. It looks similar to older BlackBerry models but features a sharp touchscreen and an excellent physical keyboard.

Price: $199

19. Sony XZ Premium

Jeff Dunn, my former colleague, reviewed this phone for Business Insider, and he summed it up perfectly:

On the one hand, he wrote, "This is a good phone. The screen is great, the software is clean, and the whole thing is superfast."

But on the other, he added, "With its underwhelming battery and slippery, sometimes uncomfortable design, it's not the device that should reverse Sony's fortunes."

Previously priced at $800, the XZ Premium is now available for less than $600 on Amazon, which makes it easier to live with its shortcomings.

Price: $599

18. BlackBerry KeyOne

The KeyOne is BlackBerry's successor to the Priv. Both run Android and feature physical keyboards. But while the Priv's keyboard slid out from behind its screen, the KeyOne's is permanently located just below its display.

The KeyOne is a great device for those who want a physical keyboard but also want access to Google's apps and services, which aren't available on other BlackBerry devices.

Price: $544
