Google’s devices beat out Apple’s iPhone 15 Pro devices and Samsung Galaxy S23 Devices, among others
The Google Pixel 8 Series has been crowned the “Best Smartphone” at the Mobile World Congress (MWC).
According to multiple reports, this is the first time Google has won the category.
The award focuses on outstanding performance, innovation and leadership determined through market testing from analysts, journalists, and influencers between January 2023 and December 2023, according to the category’s description.
Google’s devices were up against some stiff competition, including Apple’s iPhone 15 Pro devices, Samsung Galaxy S23 Devices, and the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5.
The GSMA hosts the Global Mobile Awards at MWC every year. Other awards include “Breakthrough Device Innovation” and “Best AI Innovations.”
Rick Osterloh, the vice president of devices and services at Google, celebrated the win with a post on X (formerly known as Twitter) thanking Pixel users for helping the company achieve the win.
