10 smartphones to add to your gift list

The end of year season is the perfect opportunity to change that smartphone whose battery is already weak, its power is no longer enough for the constant updates of apps and games, or its structure is simply damaged. During 2024, brands have presented some outstanding devices that we have been able to test for weeks at WIRED en Español. Below is a list of devices you could add to your gift list or consider to replace your personal equipment.

The iPhone 16 may seem like an obvious choice, but this year Apple has presented a device with really attractive features. The base version of the iPhone 16 is affordable and, at the same time, has more power than the iPhone 15 Pro, one of the most outstanding of 2023. In addition, it includes the promise of Apple Intelligence, the artificial intelligence system that takes advantage of the power of the company’s extensive language models and operates locally.

The A18 chip and operating system offer 22 hours of video playback. Also, the quality of the integrated cameras is more than proven. In short, a solid option for those who want to update their old iPhone or are looking for their first device from the brand.
