  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...

  4. 4 Motorola DROID RAZR MAXX
  5. 5 Samsung Galaxy Note
Apple's iPhone 4S is still the premiere device when it comes to hardware, even if it does boast a small display. The Retina display more than makes up for it. The app selection and ecosystem, along with iCloud, makes the iPhone 4S still the best of the best. The Galaxy Nexus for Verizon by Samsung is the best vanilla Android experience you can... - read on...

For an all-round experience, no one can match Apple's integrated software, hardware and ecosystem. The iPhone 4S - despite not boasting the best specs on the market - still offers a fantastic experience. The Galaxy Nexus is still the hottest Android device on the market, thanks to running Android 4.0. Ice Cream Sandwich is an incredible... - read on...

The iPhone 4S. Best of the best, better balanced than the rest. The Galaxy Nexus never fails to appeal the hardcore Android user, always on tab for the latest updates on speedy 4G LTE. Maxx battery with a RAZR sharp profile. No pun intended. The Galaxy Note will only get better, come Android 4.0. A good long-term, 2-year investment. Cheap.... - read on...
