Which model is the most worthy of the big names?

Hi all!

I'm a little bit confused by all the benchmark results, the cheatings and whatnot, so I was wondering about which model do you guys think is the best one to subscribe to from the big names.

Which one do you think is the best for everyday tasks, reasoning, coding, etc and why do you think that?

For example, Google Gemini is 20 bucks, but comes with 5TB of storage and an agentic system, claude is similar but does not have a storage part, etc.
