The Bottom Line	The LG VX5500 is a basic and affordable camera phone with decent performance.	The LG Glance is an affordable sleek and stylish entry-level camera phone for Verizon Wireless customers.	The Samsung Smooth is a basic-looking, budget-friendly phone with some compelling extras--it's a good option for Verizon customers who don't want to extend their contracts just to get a reasonable price on a new handset.	The Motorola W755's design looks way too familiar, but its solid feature set, ergonomic controls, and enjoyable call and video quality make it a reliable Verizon Wireless handset.	The Motorola Entice makes for a decent midrange multimedia phone, especially if you care about call quality.
