Editor’s note:What mobile phone should I buy?? The above are the best smartphones in the world in 2013 counted by foreign media, but the article is also one-sided, because only standing in the local position of the United States, not every country is suitable. For example, in China, there are also many domestic mobile phones, such as Xiaomi, Lenovo, Huawei, etc. The best mobile phones in the world will definitely have domestic mobile phones on the list, and the United States cannot represent the whole world, so it is for your reference only.
