| Bottom line | The LG Rumor Touch is a touch-screen phone for Virgin Mobile that is geared especially for messaging fans. | With basic features and a repeat of a thick design, the Samsung M575 feels clunky and outdated. | The LG Rumor Touch is a touch-screen messaging phone from Sprint with a user interface that makes text messaging a breeze. | The LG Optimus V is a great entry-level
Android smartphone if you want to go the prepaid route. | Virgin Mobile's budget-friendly Samsung Montage is a functional messaging phone without a contract, though its poor battery life and entry-level features hardly stand out in the crowd. |
