| Bottom line | The $49.99
Nokia Lumia 710 is an excellent way to get the growing capabilities of a Windows Mango smartphone for a rock-bottom price. Though it isn't an Android superphone with a luscious AMOLED display, it's a practical device that covers all the mobile bases. | A surprisingly full feature set makes the Samsung Exhibit II 4G ideal for
Android bargain-hunters; just don't expect the best of the best. | At just $50, the feature-rich Pantech Burst packs in more high-end goodies than you'd expect from a budget LTE phone. However, call quality and battery life aren't its strong suits. | The Samsung Focus Flash offers excellent value for its modest price, with a zippy 1.4GHz processor, two cameras, and a vivid screen, though the screen's smallish size and the phone's middling call quality are detractions. | If you don't give a whit about the camera or video, the Pantech Breakout is a fast and straightforward
Android handset for Verizon. |
