Metal-body smartphones 2022: which one is better to buy?

The main materials for making smartphone cases are plastic, glass and metal. The most popular of them currently are glass and plastic. But smartphones with a metal body are not that rare.

The metal case increases the life of the gadget and also has a stylish design. Metal, due to its good thermal conductivity, better dissipates heat under high loads on the processor. Such phones can be either flagship or budget.

Let's look at the most popular smartphone models whose body is made of metal.

Meizu M8

A budget device from Meizu that not only looks cool, but also feels pleasantly cool on your hand. The list of colors is quite wide, there is even a gray-blue tint and pale purple.

The screen diagonal reaches 5.7 inches with a resolution of 1440×720 pixels. The processor is the well-known Mediatek Helio P22 (MT6762V), the amount of memory is very good for a budget budget - 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of built-in.

There is a fingerprint sensor, dual rear cameras, and the battery capacity is 3100 mAh.

  • Screen diagonal: 5.7 inches
  • Screen resolution: 1440×720
  • Weight: 159 g
  • Number of SIM cards: 2
  • Processor: Mediatek Helio P22 (MT6762V)
  • Memory capacity: 64 GB
  • RAM capacity: 4 GB
  • Battery capacity: 3100 mAh
  • Rear camera: dual 12/5 MP
  • Front camera: 5 MP
  • Memory card support: yes

Nokia 3.1 Plus

The model appeared in early 2022. But I forgive the design of the Redmi 5 Plus and Helio P22 because now in the spring of 2022 the device costs only 7,490 rubles. This is a very profitable offer. This time the company managed to maintain a balance of price and quality, which cannot but please me as a fan of the first devices of the Finnish company. Although now, I must say, very little remains of the brand.

The aluminum body is coated with soft touch, which is why the phone turned out to be quite large. The company paints the gadget in blue, white and gray colors. There is no gradient, but the phone looks interesting and not flashy. There are two 13 MP cameras with autofocus and a 5 MP additional sensor. The quality matches the budget price. The screen is 6 inches with the Always-on Display pseudo-function, which turns on the time display when you pick up the phone. The gadget is promised to be updated to Android 10 in the first quarter of 2022. One of the important features is the presence of NFC, which the expensive version 6.1plus lacks.

BQ 5528L Strike Forward

The back cover of this budget smartphone from BQ is indeed made of metal, but you should know that there are plastic inserts on the back for the antenna.

A very cheap device that has a 5.45-inch IPS screen with a resolution of 1440×720 pixels, a dual camera that shoots just right for the money, a platform based on the Unisoc SC9863A chip and 2 GB of RAM, as well as a fingerprint scanner.

The smartphone is nothing impressive, but it is not bad for the price.

  • Screen diagonal: 5.45 inches
  • Screen resolution: 1440×720
  • Weight: 148 g
  • Number of SIM cards: 2
  • Processor: Unisoc SC9863A
  • Memory capacity: 16 GB
  • RAM capacity: 2 GB
  • Battery capacity: 3000 mAh
  • Rear camera: dual 13/0.3 MP
  • Front camera: 5 MP
  • Memory card support: yes

What should you pay attention to when buying a smartphone?

  • First, you need to decide for what purpose this device is needed. The new generation of smartphones are miniature PCs. The user can not only make calls and send SMS, but also use the Internet, watch movies, enjoy their favorite music, use office programs and much more.
  • Secondly, you need to pay attention to the operating system of the mobile device. The ease of use of this smartphone depends on it.

Most mobile devices run on Android OS. There are many applications and programs available for this system.

The iOS operating system is convenient and easy to use, and also has advanced functionality. The developer of this OS is the world famous American company Apple.

Recently, Windows Phone OS has become increasingly popular. Its developer is the American company Microsoft. The main advantage of the system is that it can work with office documents, so a smartphone running this OS can completely replace a PC. Disadvantages include a small number of applications and slow OS operation.

  • Thirdly, you need to pay attention to the diagonal of the smartphone. The ease of use of a smartphone depends on it.

The smartphone with a 4.5-inch screen fits perfectly in the palm of your hand and fits in your pocket.

Typically, a diagonal of 4.5-5.5 inches is considered the most optimal and convenient size. Such smartphones have an affordable price and good expansion. Smartphones with a diagonal of more than 5.5 inches are called phablets. They are the golden mean between a tablet and a smartphone.

  • The technical characteristics of the device are also of great importance. The speed of the smartphone, as well as its cost, directly depend on them.

This ranking of the best thin mobile devices this year takes into account all of the above factors. In addition, user reviews were taken into account when compiling the rating. After studying the review of the best models, it will be much easier for the buyer to choose the right mobile device.

Meizu 16 6/64GB

As far as we know, in blue, gold and black shades, the Meizu 16 is offered with a metal back. But the white version is slightly different: yes, it also has a metal lid, but it is covered with a layer of ceramic.

The smartphone is not new for a long time, although its characteristics cannot be called outdated. So, the 6-inch screen is of excellent quality, and it is AMOLED, not IPS, and the platform is very good - the Qualcomm Snapdragon 710 processor works together with 6 GB of RAM.

Since an AMOLED screen is used here, the scanner is made to be on-screen.

  • Screen diagonal: 6 inches
  • Screen resolution: 2160×1080
  • Weight: 155 g
  • Number of SIM cards: 2
  • Processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon 710
  • Memory capacity: 64 GB
  • RAM capacity: 6 GB
  • Battery capacity: 3100 mAh
  • Rear camera: dual 12/20 MP
  • Front camera: 20 MP
  • Memory card support: no

OnePlus 5T

  • Processor: Snapdragon 835
  • Screen: 6.01 inches, FHD+
  • Cameras: 16+20 megapixels / 16 megapixels
  • Memory: 6/8 GB and 64/128 GB
  • Battery capacity: 3300 mAh

Price – from 39,990 rubles.

The device was released at the beginning of 2022, which influenced the choice of processor for it. Snapdragon 835 is one of the most powerful solutions before the release of the newer Snapdragon 845. However, the chipset and excellent memory performance allow the gadget to easily cope with any task. The phone is equipped with a high-quality Amoled display with an average size of 6.01 inches and a resolution of 2160*1080 pixels. Autonomy – 3300 mAh, Quick Charge. Camera from Sony – 16+20 MP, front module – 16 MP.

Among the pleasant aspects are good performance, face scanning for unlocking, NFC, excellent sound quality. Cons – the body is slippery and unremarkable, the camera does not have an optical zoom, which affects the quality of shooting on the go. The price of the model is not the most loyal, so if a metal case is not a priority, you can choose a lot of more interesting devices with the same price and better or similar parameters.

Xiaomi Mi Max 3 6/128GB

A smartphone with one of the largest displays on the market - its diagonal reaches an impressive 6.9 inches. It’s interesting that Mi Max 3 appeared before the era of FullView displays and at that time its screen seemed simply huge. Now this will surprise almost no one.

To prevent the device from draining quickly, it has a very powerful 5500 mAh battery with support for fast charging. Mi Max 3 runs on a decent platform, which consists of a Qualcomm Snapdragon 636 chip, 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of ROM in this version.

Note that the rear camera is very good for its price (consists of two modules) and the presence of a fingerprint sensor on the back cover.

  • Screen diagonal: 6.9 inches
  • Screen resolution: 2160×1080
  • Weight: 221 g
  • Number of SIM cards: 2
  • Processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon 636

Honor Play

  • Processor: Kirin 970
  • Screen: 6.3 inches, FullView, FHD+
  • Cameras: 16+2 megapixels / 16 megapixels
  • Memory: 4/6 GB and 64/128 GB
  • Battery capacity: 3750 mAh

Quite an atypical smartphone for a Chinese company. On the one hand, it looks like Apple - a cutout for cameras and inserts for antennas on the top and bottom of the back panel, and from another angle - these are not boring glass backs with an iridescent surface. The model, as the name suggests, is positioned as a gaming model. The firmware includes GPU Turbo technology, which increases performance by 60% and at the same time reduces battery consumption by 30%.

Other parameters fully correspond to the price - a powerful Kirin 970 chipset, 4/64 or 6/128 GB of memory, a large 6.3-inch FullView display with FHD+ resolution, matrix type - IPS. Rear camera – 16+2 MP, selfie camera – 16 MP. Both modules support AI. Battery – 3750 mAh, has Quick Charge. In addition to the typical black version, there are red and purple colors on sale. Nice to have NFC.

Blackview BV9500 Plus

Well, this is a secure smartphone with a metal body. Despite the fact that the screen of the device is small - 5.7 inches diagonal, it weighs a lot - as much as 365 g! This is explained, firstly, by the shock-resistant case, and secondly, a very powerful 10,000 mAh battery is installed here! Housing protection degree - IP68, IP69K + military certificate MIL-STD-810G.

The MediaTek Helio P70 chipset is used, the memory capacity is 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of ROM, it supports fast and wireless charging, there is a fingerprint scanner, an NFC module, and a dual main camera.

  • Screen diagonal: 5.7 inches
  • Screen resolution: 2160×1080
  • Weight: 365 g
  • Number of SIM cards: 2

  • Battery capacity: 10000 mAh
  • Rear camera: dual 16/0.3 MP
  • Front camera: 13 MP
  • Memory card support: yes

ZTE Nubia V18

Model from distant 2022. True, it hit retail in Russia only in 2022 and has already lost its price: they are asking less than 9,500 rubles for it in large retail chains. The offer is profitable considering the filling of Snapdragon 625 with 4 GB of RAM, a screen with a resolution of 1080 × 2160 pixels and a 4000 mAh battery. The body of the device is metal, the plastic inserts are not installed as roughly as in the Power Plus. They are here in the form of an arch, they bend along the edge of the phone and do not stand out tactilely. I think the location of the camera is an interesting solution: it is single, 13 megapixels, located in a horizontal block, combined with a flash. The bezel of the models in all three colors: black, gold and red is painted in a scarlet collar.

The gadget is thin, despite the powerful battery: 7.7 mm at 170 grams. The operating system version is the oldest by 2022 standards: Android 7.1. At the same time, it’s worth thinking about which version to order: the European model is equipped with a bare Google shell, and the Chinese Nubia UI 5.1. Although the interface of the latter can be changed to Russian, localization does not occur in all sections.

Xiaomi Mi A2 4/64GB Android One

The outgoing Xiaomi Mi A2 with a metal body and cool design can still be found. It runs on the stock version of Android as it is part of the Android One program.

Like most other not the most expensive devices from Xiaomi, there is no NFC module.

The best inexpensive smartphones in a metal case

You can buy a good smartphone with a metal case on a small budget if you carefully analyze the market. Today, the choice of devices is huge, but only a few manufacturers have truly produced high-quality phones.

Participants in the rating can boast not only of a low price, but also of decent filling. Our experts carefully selected smartphones that easily compete with more expensive analogues according to the main criteria:

  1. Workmanship;
  2. Having a good processor;

Built-in NFC will eliminate the need to carry cards with you to pay for purchases, and fingerprint unlocking will prevent anyone from using the device without the owner’s knowledge. The performance of the smartphone is not inferior to many more expensive phones and can easily run all applications. It can also replace a navigator and accurately display geolocation. However, according to customer reviews, crashes can sometimes occur under heavy load.

Meizu Note 9 4/64GB

A stylish smartphone with a combined metal and plastic body is good for everyone. Fast responses, a bright screen, a loud speaker and an excellent main camera, although as follows from the reviews, the manufacturer slightly overestimated its true parameters. A good amount of built-in and RAM memory (64/4 GB) allows the device to simultaneously run several applications, mail and play music. Automatically adjusting the screen backlight changes the brightness depending on external conditions, and the Meizu Super mCharge fast charging function will bring your phone's battery back to life in just an hour. The disadvantages of this smartphone are not related to the hardware, but to the pre-installed software, especially with regard to the standard browser, which does not indulge in response speed.

Advantages:

  • thin, compact body made of aluminum and plastic;
  • combination of price and performance;
  • good screen;
  • high quality images;
  • functionality.

Flaws:

  • no NFC;

Xiaomi Redmi 4X 64GB

A time-tested smartphone with a high-quality metal body pleases its owners not only with its performance, but also with a very long operation without recharging. The combination of an economical five-inch screen and a large battery made this smartphone one of the leaders in autonomy, and although outdated, the fast Qualcomm Snapdragon processor is responsive. The owners also speak positively about the functionality and additional capabilities of the device. For example, now in order to transfer data from one device to another, you just need to use the Mi Mover application, which will do this within half an hour, even keeping the location of the icons in their place.

Advantages:

  • good performance;
  • capacious battery;
  • large amount of memory;
  • reliability;
  • high-quality network reception.

Flaws:

  • weak camera;
  • no contactless payment;
  • HD screen.

Nokia 5

A balanced smartphone with an optimally selected set of functions and characteristics. A full set of sensors, including a gyroscope for panoramic shooting, bare Android, not overloaded with unnecessary applications, stable GPS operation, and an all-metal body are just a small part of the advantages of this smartphone. According to reviews, the performance of the Qualcomm Snapdragon 430 device is enough to perform all everyday tasks, and both cameras delight owners with decent image quality. Among the shortcomings, owners note a long charging cycle and small RAM compared to analogues. When using the Internet or watching videos, the smartphone is discharged in less than a day.

Advantages:

  • picture quality;
  • stable work;
  • good performance;
  • NFC module;
  • light sensor;
  • durable body.

Flaws:

  • amount of RAM;
  • long charge.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 3/32GB

One of the most practical models of the Chinese brand Xiaomi is very popular. Buyers are attracted by its appearance, durable combined body, powerful processor, thanks to which the smartphone works quickly and accurately. In addition, the device can shoot 4K video (using Google Camera) and has many system settings that allow you to personalize the phone. The owners also note good battery life - despite the large and bright screen, the battery charge lasts for more than a day, and in economy mode the power outlet will not be needed for more than two or three days. This smartphone has no significant drawbacks, but when purchasing, you should take into account its modest size and the lack of contactless payment.

Advantages:

  • speed of work;
  • bright screen;
  • attractive price;
  • stylish case design;
  • capacious battery;
  • quality cameras.

Flaws:

  • NFC is missing.

Meizu Note 8 4/64GB

Nokia 5 is a smartphone with an aluminum body, non-separable. It looks really cool even now.

The model is far from the newest, it runs on Android 7.1 firmware, and the chipset is Qualcomm Snapdragon 430. The memory capacity is 2 GB of RAM and 16 GB of main memory. A 5.2-inch display is installed.

Apple iPhone 7 32GB

The latest “metal” iPhone at the time of writing (this means the back cover). The smartphone can be purchased in various colors, including even bright red.

What can we say? This is one of the few compact flagships (the screen diagonal is only 4.7 inches, a very small figure by today’s standards) that can please you with fast system operation (remember Apple’s proprietary optimization), a really cool rear camera, IP67 water protection, very fast fingerprint sensor, NFC module.

And with all this, the iPhone 7 has seriously fallen in price recently.

  • Dimensions (WxHxD): 67.1×138.3×7.1 mm
  • Screen diagonal: 4.7 inches
  • Screen resolution: 1334×750
  • Weight: 138 g

  • RAM capacity: 2 GB
  • Battery capacity: 1960 mAh
  • Rear camera: 12 MP
  • Front camera: 7 MP
  • Memory card support: no

BlackBerry KEYone

BlackBerry KEYone can hardly be called a metal smartphone, since part of the back cover is made of plastic. But the frame is massive and it is certainly made of metal.

This is a unique smartphone because it offers a mechanical QWERTY keyboard - it is located just below the display. The diagonal of the latter is small - 4.5 inches, but it has a very high resolution - 1620x1080 pixels.

The chipset is Qualcomm Snapdragon 625, the memory capacity is small by today's standards: 3 GB of RAM and 32 GB of ROM. The 3505 mAh battery has support for fast charging.

  • Screen diagonal: 4.5 inches
  • Screen resolution: 1620×1080
  • Weight: 180 g
  • Number of SIM cards: 1
  • Processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon 625
  • Memory capacity: 32 GB
  • RAM capacity: 3 GB
  • Battery capacity: 3505 mAh
  • Rear camera: 12 MP
  • Front camera: 8 MP
  • Memory card support: yes

Lenovo S5 Pro

If you want an iPhone, but don't have enough money for it, you'll love the S5 Pro. It has the bangs typical of models X and newer of the Cupertino giant and a body like the “seven” made of metal. The OS is Google Android 8.1 with ZUI 5.0. The translation is good, but it is possible to install third-party firmware, so if you want to update, I advise you to look at HavocOS. You won't lose anything, but you'll gain a bunch of useful settings.

The phone has stereo speakers. Although the volume is created by a pair of conversational speakers, the sound quality is good. The teardrop notch usually impairs face recognition in the dark. Even flagships can make mistakes at night. The S5 Pro's unibrow has an infrared sensor; bad conditions will not be an obstacle to its operation. Among the shortcomings, users note the firmware: it is crude, the phone reboots when working in the cold.

The quality of the images is also good, during the day the lenses do not overexpose the sky, which is the sin of many “Chinese” cameras, although blurring of the image is not uncommon. Since the Snapdragon 636 SoC is installed here, it’s worth experimenting with the Gcam application.

The 3500 mAh battery can be charged by an 18-watt power supply. You can count on 1.5 days of work. Traditional problems include a hybrid tray and the absence of contactless payments.

Meizu M6s 32GB

Another budget phone from Meizu, which can also be found on sale, although the smartphone was released at the beginning of 2022.

There are several bright colors to choose from, a 5.7-inch screen with a resolution of 1440x720 pixels, a Samsung Exynos 7872 processor, 3 GB of RAM and 32 GB of main memory. Battery capacity - 3000 mAh.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip

When folded, this flexible screen smartphone takes up little space.
It will fit into your pocket without any problems. The main 6.7-inch Super AMOLED display has a resolution of 2636x1080. It is equipped with automatic brightness adjustment. The image is clear. The diagonal size of the external Super AMOLED display is 1.1 inches. Processor – Snapdragon 855. There are no questions about performance.

Each part of the smartphone has one battery built into it. Their total capacity is 3300 mAh. There is fast charging. From 0% to full charge it takes 75 minutes. This smartphone has enough memory - 8 GB of RAM, 256 GB of built-in memory.

pros:

  • high quality display,
  • powerful processor,
  • design,
  • large amount of memory.

Minuses:

  • modest battery,
  • price.

Apple iPhone 6S 32GB

Another iPhone with a metal body that is still on sale (remember that the model debuted back in 2015). And this is the cheapest iPhone on the market, since the iPhone SE has practically disappeared from the shelves.

Despite its age, the iPhone 6S can still surprise with the speed of the system, a cool main camera, albeit a single one, an excellent 4.7-inch display, an NFC module, a fast fingerprint sensor and even a 3.5 mm headphone jack, which has long disappeared in more modern iPhones.

But the design of the case, in our opinion, is not the most successful - the iPhone 7 looks many times better.

  • Screen diagonal: 4.7 inches
  • Screen resolution: 1334×750
  • Weight: 143 g
  • Number of SIM cards: 1
  • Processor: Apple A9
  • Memory capacity: 32 GB
  • RAM capacity: 2 GB
  • Battery capacity: 1715 mAh
  • Rear camera: 12 MP
  • Front camera: 5 MP
  • Memory card support: no

Xiaomi Redmi 5 Plus

Direct competitor to Nubia V18. It has the same chip, memory capacity and lacks NFC. But there is an IR port, which Xiaomi fans love, and the MIUI 9 shell with theme support. I am impressed by this particular Chinese, although this opinion is probably subjective: I was convinced of the high quality of the company’s gadgets even when testing the Mi 9T and the flagship Mi 9.

The main metal part of the body is made in the form of a plate, the plastic is slightly darker than it. It's nice that the phone comes with a silicone case. I consider the location of the flash between the main camera and the fingerprint scanner to be an excellent functional solution: the finger always rests on the pad without missing a beat. The camera eye protrudes quite far from the body, the phone dangles on flat surfaces. Despite the outdated design, the gadget is worth recommending to anyone who wants a device with Android 10. Out of the box, the model runs on 7.1, but there is still no official support. There will be no problems with phone repair; the gadget at one time became a bestseller.

DOOGEE S60

This secure smartphone actively uses both metal and plastic, but they are combined very harmoniously, and the back cover is made of metal, so we add the device to the review.

DOOGEE S60 received a powerful 5580 mAh battery with fast and even wireless charging, a 5.2-inch high-resolution display, an 8-core MediaTek Helio P25 (MT6757T) chip, 6 GB of RAM and 64 GB of ROM - in general, it’s very good equipped for your own money.

Huawei Mate 20 lite

The main advantage of this smartphone is the powerful 8-core SoC Huawei Kirin 10 processor. It provides astronomical speed for any application, even at high settings.
The 6.3″ IPS display has a resolution of 2340×1080 and an aspect ratio of 19.5:9. The screen is darker than many competitors, color saturation is at a high level. Photos taken with the main camera in daylight are clear. But, even in daylight, noise is visible.

The quality of “night” photos leaves much to be desired. The sound quality is excellent. The 3750 mAh battery provides 24 hours of battery life.

pros:

  • powerful processor,
  • sound quality,
  • support for memory cards (up to 512 GB),
  • availability of NFC.

Minuses:

  • mediocre photo quality,
  • weak battery.
