I've had the exact same problem, and have experimented with Kagi, DDG, etc, to try to find better results.
ChatGPT, in my opinion, is great for "how do I code X" type questions, but isn't so good at the types of queries you mentioned, due to the lack of a search engine.
My weekend project was an open source combination of Google + GPT that returns pretty good results for these types of queries. You can check it out here - https://github.com/VikParuchuri/researcher
Example - the response to "what are the best current smartphones" is:
`...According to Search Result [2], the best phones have been thoroughly reviewed and tested, and include the Apple iPhone 14 and 14 Pro, the Pixel 7 Pro and the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra. Search Result [5] also states that there are strong options available at all price levels, so you don't have to spend a lot to get something great...`
