Apple’s iPhone has received less recognition at this year’s Smartphone Awards, an annual event hosted by tech YouTuber Marques Brownlee (MKBHD). The iPhone 14 Pro Max was awarded “Best Camera System,” but was not included in any other categories. In contrast, the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra was named “Best Big Phone,” the ASUS Zenfone 9 won “Best Small Phone,” and the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra was chosen as the MVP (Phone of the Year).
Google Pixel 6A was given the Value Award at the Smartphone Awards
The ASUS ROG Phone 6 won “Best Battery,” the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip received the Design Award, and the Google Pixel 6A was given the Value Award. The LG Rollable was named the Bust of the Year. While the iPhone 14 Pro Max was able to claim the award for “Best Camera System,” it was not included in any other categories at this year’s Smartphone Awards.
