| Bottom line | The HTC Evo 4G LTE is a worthy successor to Sprint's Evo family, as long as you remember one important caveat: until Sprint gets its LTE network off the ground, the Evo 4G LTE won't actually run 4G -- it will be 3G-only at first. | Samsung's latest superphone is just around the corner, and with it comes the promise of a better camera and software features that make
Android 4.0 more indispensable than ever. | Quad-core processing isn't everything, and AT&T's new $199.99 HTC One X proves it. This advanced
Android has style, speed, blazing 4G, and power galore. | The
HTC One S is the best phone you can get on T-Mobile (for now), wrapping Android 4.0, 4G data speeds, and a beautiful 4.3-inch AMOLED screen into one svelte package. | As the first U.S. phone with Ice Cream Sandwich, Verizon's
Samsung Galaxy Nexus takes a coveted, solitary step forward. However, once other premium handsets receive the updated Android OS, the Galaxy Nexus will lose some of its competitive edge. |
