A popular YouTuber provided his smartphone awards for various categories, with the iPhone 15 Pro winning the best internally designed award
Before the start of the new year, Zach from JerryRigEverything put out a video titled ‘Smartphone Durability Awards 2023!’ in which he provides his picks for the best handsets for various categories. Apple might not have won any repairability awards last year, but when it comes to internal aesthetics, the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max won first place. A surprising entrant to this list was Google’s mid-ranger, the Pixel 7a, as it won the most durable smartphone award.ASUS’ ROG Ultimate 7 Ultimate one-ups Apple’s iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max by being the least repairable
Starting with the most repairable, the YouTuber states that the Fairphone 5 takes the win in this category because every component it features can be seamlessly swapped with a screwdriver, with the replacement parts being readily available from the manufacturer. This business model prevents the need to browse on online retailers such as AliExpress.
