With several new Android flagships now on shelves, those in the hunt for a new Android smartphone have some more options to choose from. With that in mind, we want to help narrow things down for those that need things narrowed down as we take a look at the device’s we think represent the best Android phones for April, 2015.

In March, Samsung and HTC announced brand new flagship smartphones in the Galaxy S6, Galaxy S6 Edge, and HTC One M9. The three devices are finally on shelves at top carriers in the United States and around the world giving Android enthusiasts and those torn between iOS, Android and Windows Phone three more options to look at.

While these additions are nice, they are bound to complicate things for those of you that don’t keep tabs on the smartphone industry. If you walk into a store in April, you’re going to be looking at an absurd number of phones and today, we want to help you finalize a list of Android devices to look at.

Every month we are bombarded with questions from consumers, many of whom want to know about the best Android phones money can buy. There are a number of different devices that we could recommend, the Android smartphone market is full of solid choices, but we want to narrow things down a bit and take a look at what we consider to be the top five Android phones available.

These devices represent the devices that we’d recommend to friends and family. And while our list may differ from yours, these are the devices that Gotta Be Mobile editors have selected for recognition this month. We feel like the devices listed here deliver the best, all-around package for this month and this month alone.

With that in mind, here are the five best Android phones for April, 2015.

Samsung Galaxy S6

1 / 5

There was a lot of pressure on Samsung (internal and external) to deliver a solid flagship following its subpar offerings in 2014 and 2013. And deliver it did.

The Samsung Galaxy S6 is, without a doubt, one of the best Android smartphones that you can buy at the moment. It's not perfect, smartphones rarely are, but if you're in the hunt for a new Android device, you must take a look at the Galaxy S6 before making your final move.

Samsung's brand new Galaxy S6 is loaded with features including a new design language that features glass and metal, a gorgeous Quad HD display that measures 5.1-inches, an efficient Exynos 7 octa-core processor that helps deliver solid battery life, a 16MP camera with OIS, and a toned down version of TouchWiz that's over Google's Android 5.0 Lollipop OS.

The Galaxy S6 starts at $199.99, fairly expensive for a flagship Android, but for most of you, it will be worth every penny. Be sure to take a look at it before you buy in April.
