What do you consider to be the phone of the year for 2018?

This has been a great year for smartphones.

Even though 2018 isn't over quite yet, we've already seen a plethora of excellent handsets released throughout the year. Samsung came in swinging early with the Galaxy S9 series, LG's had a couple surprise hits with the G7 and V40, and Google's all-new Pixel 3 + Pixel 3 XL are easily two of the best Android phones you can buy right now.

With so many quality phones out in the market, is it possible to name one as phone of the year?

Some of our AC forum members appear to think so. Here's what they have to say.

I say yes OR close 2nd. I think the regular Pixel 3 for sure, but closer for the 3XL. Camera and software dig out the win for the top spot, I say. Outside of the Note, which to me is in a category by itself, what else comes close? XS..? maybe.. 9/9+ nah ...

Since I’m an iPhone user, X🅂 max but I’d say the Note 9 would be a heavy contender then possibly the One Plus 6 or 6T heck even the Razer Phone 2 offers more than the Pixel.

Im buying a Pixel 3, its my phone of the year (if it wasn't I wouldn't buy it) but I wouldn't expect it to be on many others. I can see why iPhone XS Max or Note 9 would win it, even though I wouldn't prefer either theyre geared to mass market appeal.
