Bottom line | The Motorola Droid
Razr Maxx proves that a powerful Android superphone can remain thin yet still promise marathon-worthy battery life. | Motorola's fast, stylish Droid
Razr Maxx HD offers outstanding battery life, but its camera captures unimpressive images. | 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
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. | Samsung delivers a powerful, boundary-pushing device that gets a lot right. Yet its complicated features and high price raise questions about its purpose. |
