The Samsung Galaxy S8+ is unquestionably the best smartphone I've ever owned, a gorgeous and modern device with great performance and a superior camera. And I have to return it.

For the past few weeks, I've been evaluating three smartphones that represent some of the best choices available in their respective pricing categories. Here are some early recommendations.

My Samsung Galaxy S8+ arrived this morning, and it's going to take quite a while to get up and running with this new handset. But first impressions matter. And the Galaxy S8+ is stunning.

On quick inspection, the Moto G5 Plus looks like a solid handset, with a nice metal body, a crisp and clear 5.2-inch screen, and some quirky and unique Motorola flourishes.

OK, I promise I won't keep providing daily updates like this. But I'm captivated by the OnePlus 3T in ways I never was with the Pixel XL. And my appreciation grows by the day.

My new midnight black OnePlus 3T arrived today, and my first impressions are quite positive: This is a handset that absolutely rivals, and perhaps surpasses, the Google Pixel XL, but for a much lower price.

Samsung has opened up preorders for its new Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+ handsets. And if you act quickly, you will get a free Gear VR virtual reality headset too.

What I see so far in the Android O Developer Preview is a nice set of refinements in a variety of areas, but nothing I'd describe as major new functionality.

Last week, Google announced the Android O Developer Preview, giving us our first peek at the next major release of its dominant mobile platform.

Spring is in the air, so Google is rolling out a developer preview for its next version of Android ahead of the May beta release.

While Apple's iPhone is popular in certain countries, Android owns a near monopoly in the smartphone market. And it's the go-to mobile choice for the Windows Guy.

It’s a new month, and you know what that means: Four free new Xbox games for Xbox Live Gold subscribers. And this month’s picks look unusually good. Reminder: All Xbox 360 games in the Games for Gold promotion also work with Xbox One in Backwards Compatibility mode too. There’s never been a better time to…

Google just announced that it will bring Google Assistant to Android 6.0 and 7.0 handsets starting this week.
