| Bottom line | If you're looking for a midtier
Android smartphone, the Samsung Galaxy Axiom's cheap price is hard to beat. | A few quibbles notwithstanding, the powerhouse HTC One is a beautifully crafted, near-ideal smartphone. | The Huawei Ascend Y is an inexpensive foray into
Android, but U.S. Cellular offers better phones at similar costs. | Pumped with high-performing hardware and creative software features, the Samsung Galaxy S3 is an excellent, top-end phone that's neck and neck with the HTC One X. | The LG Splendor doesn't have the fastest network connection, but it's an affordable and snappy handset that's loaded with
Android 4.0 and a swift CPU. |
