Welcome to the best Android Phones as of Feb. 1, 2012. Or you can
call them our favorite Android phones. Or the top Android phones.
Really, call them whatever you want. Here's what you're getting: Our
unabashed, unapologetic and unequivocal list of what we consider to be
the best Android smartphones available on the four major U.S. carriers
today.
You can't have this sort of list without controversy. We get that.
And discussion is good. And so we're just going to anwer the question as
simply as we can here: What do we think is the best phone on any given
U.S. carrier as of right now? They're all in this post. No metrics, no
scores. Just our pics and a tad of explanation, with the goal of helping
you find the best phone on a particular carrier at any given time.
The best phone on T-Mobile - Samsung Galaxy S II
|
It's really a toss-up between the Samsung Galaxy S II
and the HTC Amaze 4G. Both are excellent phones, with large screens and
fast data and great cameras. But we're giving the edge to the Galaxy S
II because its camera software is a bit more mature and easy to use. |
The best phone on Verizon - Samsung Galaxy Nexus
|
Verizon has more Android phones than anyone. (Or at least it sure
feels that way.) And while you've got excellent phones in the likes of
the Motorola Droid RAZR MAXX and HTC Rezound, none offers as much
flexibility and is ensured to have more timely updates than the Verizon Samsung Galaxy Nexus.
The Droid RAZR MAXX is close -- but the 720p display on the Galaxy
Nexus trumps it. The HTC Rezound matches the display resolution,
however, so it's a good alternative. |
The best phone on AT&T - HTC Vivid
|
The HTC Vivid
offers up a solid design and gives you that well-built feeling without
sacrificing any speed. Its snappy dual-core processor and large display
are a joy to use, and it's a great multi-media powerhouse. Add in
AT&T's blossoming LTE network and you have what it takes to make a
winner. |
The best phone on Sprint - Samsung Galaxy S II Epic 4G Touch
|
A great phone with a ridiculously long name. The SGSIIE4GT
takes everything we've come to know and love from Samsung's 2011
flagship phone and wraps it in a 4.5-inch form factor. Plus it's got
Sprint's 4G Wimax data. |
