| Bottom line | Though the senior-aimed Jitterbug Plus is easy to use and has good call quality, it's overpriced for its low-end features. | With its huge screen and throwback stylus, the
Samsung Galaxy Note with Android 4.0 is a polarizing smartphone that winks at tablet territory. Those who like their screens extra-large will find a top-notch device that lets multimedia shine. The S Pen adds some artistic potential, but for some, the phone will simply be too big. | Though the senior-aimed Jitterbug Plus is easy to use and has good call quality, it's overpriced for its low-end features. | Verizon customers looking for a simple phone will appreciate the Samsung Gusto 2's emphasis on call quality and comfort, despite a few minor flaws. | The Huawei Impulse 4G satisfies the basics of most
Android phones, but its outdated software and inconsistent speeds keep us from fully recommending it despite its bargain price. |
