  3. 3 Motorola DROID RAZR MAXX
  4. 4 Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket
  5. 5 Nokia Lumia 800 (unlocked)
The iPhone 4S is available in 16GB, 32GB and 64GB capacities on AT&T, Sprint and Verizon. The 4S offers a high-res 960x640 display, an 8-megapixel camera and a battery that allows me to make it through (usually more than) a full day without having to reach for a charger. Some may feel that the 3.5-inch display is a tad too small, but the iPhone's... - read on...

Same top 3 as last week. Using the mentality that if I had to go out and buy a phone tomorrow, those would be my options, in that order. This week's 4th and 5th places go to the SII and the Lumia 800. The Galaxy SII is still one of the best phones on the market, its display, power and performance can't fail to be admired by anyone, techie or... - read on...

  5. 5 Samsung Galaxy S II (T-Mobile)
I'm switching around my count today for one reason and one reason only: the Samsung Galaxy S Blaze 4G ha provided the best HSPA+ 42Mbps speeds on T-Mobile I've ever seen. While I have the Samsung Galaxy S II on T-Mobile coming in fifth on my list, I still see better speeds on the Blaze 4G. It's a mid-range phone with high-end speeds. The iPhone... - read on...

The iPhone 4S is still the definitive smartphone option, with the best in software and hardware. It's perfect size means one-handed control is easy, but it isn't too small. The Galaxy S II Skyrocket is a skinned Android device that stands out within the crowd, using a large screen and a fast processor to propel Android forward. The DROID RAZR MAXX... - read on...
