With no wrong answers, what are your personal top 3 phones in terms of looks?

For me personally:

  1. Pixel 2 XL (Reverse) Panda - if someone asked me to picture a modern phone in my head, without thinking, the design would look a lot like it, it just looks like a phone and the symmetrical bezels, dual speakers and even camera position and size seem just right. Combine that with the gorgeous mix of colours and the contours of the frame and back, it was certainly a looker of a phone

  2. Meizu 16S - even with the war on bezels, this phone somehow manages to keep them there with almost impossibly good style. The phone looks like what I pictured the Galaxy S10 to have been before it was released, and the camera and ring for the flash just looks really cool and aesthetically pleasing in a minimal but functional way

  3. Xiaomi Mi 9T - yes, I am a bit biased because I'm currently typing on it, but it does look fantastic. I loved the look of the Mi Mix 3 I had previously, that glossy mirror finished ceramic looked incredible. But that same display that pushes bezels to their limits for nonexistence is just right between functionality and the immersive experience, and the carbon fiber back is gorgeous to the point I have to take it out of the case for a wipe down just to admire it and how it changes in the light. The subtle red accents on the LED, the ring around the telephoto lens and the power button just add to it further. Personally, it is peak aesthetics for a phone approaching 2020, and I'm just waiting to see if the Mi Mix 4 (not Alpha) gets announced to improve on it further, because it would look insane in that classy ceramic

Removable batteries discussion

I have always preferred phones with removable batteries so far, thinking that it will most certainly be the first component in a device to fail. I have even advised people in my circles to do so, until a recent event. A family member of mine still uses a HTC DesireX. Recently, he wanted to replace his battery because of swelling. He bought two matching batteries from different sellers. The problem is, even though they were unopened/sealed packages of original batteries, they were not holding much charge. (I suppose they waited on a shelf for some time.) This made me question myself. In the past, I have used nokia smartphones, and they were easy to replace with fresh batteries, since almost all nokias used the same battery type. Now with android, its all over the place. Is it even worth it to go for a removable battery device when you cant find a replacement a couple of years after you purchase it? What do you think/prefer? PS. I realize this is not exactly fault of android OS, but ...
