| Bottom line | The Nokia Astound is a beautifully designed and affordable smartphone for T-Mobile, but there are other budget-friendly options available with better performance and that are easier to use. | A few quibbles notwithstanding, the powerhouse HTC One is a beautifully crafted, near-ideal smartphone. | Nokia's
Lumia 920 is heavy and thick, but if you want the most powerful, feature-rich Windows phone available, this is it. | The reasonable $80 price tag, dual-core processor, and
Android 4.0, make the LG Optimus L9 a reliable midlevel handset for T-Mobile users. | The
iPhone 5 completely rebuilds the iPhone on a framework of new features and design, addressing its major previous shortcomings. It's absolutely the best iPhone to date, and it easily secures its place in the top tier of the smartphone universe. |
