The Bottom Line Strong battery life and great video performance make the Samsung A890 a good bet for consumers who don't need corporate-friendly features. With an understated design and a solid feature set, the Samsung SCH-A870 is a great midtier offering from Verizon. The Samsung SCH-A930 makes a mostly good showing, but there are better choices in Verizon's EV-DO lineup. If you crave an affordable camera phone with a few added features, the LG VX6100 is a worthwhile option. The LG Dare is an innovative and feature-rich handset with several surprises that sets it apart from other touch-screen phones.
