Both have what appear to be great cameras. They both will run either Windows Phone Mango or Windows Phone Tango. Both have access to 4G LTE speeds. And both feature decent displays with single-core processors.

The two major differences lie with the display size.

The Samsung Galaxy Attain 4G is a decent little phone. It does most things well, though it stumbles badly in a couple of places. The hardware works very well and still manages to look modern. The screen is good and battery life is even better.

The Attain 4G offers a good software experience with... More

People who want their phone to be just a phone are in for a nice surprise with the Nokia Asha 200. It's two phones for the price of one. How's that for a bargain?

The Asha series is a great place to get a bargain lately and Nokia must be happy with the performance of their entry-level phones. Despite... More

The Samsung Galaxy Attain 4G may not be the best LTE phone we've ever reviewed, but at $250 with no contract, this handset is definitely a good deal. It's a shame that the phone ships with so much bloatware, but overall the Attain is worth a look--especially if you're shopping for a 4G Android phone... More

Overall, there is a lot to like about the BlackBerry Bold 9790. It is beautifully designed, has a really nice QWERTY keyboard, and delivers outstanding in-call audio quality. In fact, if you are a BlackBerry enthusiast, you probably needn't look at a higher end model as this one would do the same job... More

There’s something quite special about the Razr Maxx. While not so great for recent owners of the Droid Razr, the Maxx’s existence proves that, with enough engineering prowess, manufacturers can create devices that can seamlessly run on 4G networks without sacrificing battery life. And that’s a... More

When the Optimus LTE made the jump to Verizon, it shed a lot of aesthetic charm in the process. What it lacks in looks, however, the phone makes up for somewhat with its stunning 4.5-inch display. The handset also sports a capable shooter and good transfer speeds, in part thanks to Verizon's 4G network.... More

The BlackBerry Curve 9380 is an interesting foray in the touchscreen-only jungle by RIM, which probably meant to create a decent consumer-oriented budget device with its services staples. Yet when you get rid of one huge advantage for BlackBerry aficionados, which is the physical keyboard, and replace... More

Based on the current selling prices of both phones, $200 for the LG Spectrum and $250 for the 32GB Motorola DROID RAZR, we have to put our money on Motorola’s pride and joy since it’s boasting a lot more quality elements over its rival. Flaunting one killer looking industrial design that sets the... More

If you’re trying to decide between the DROID RAZR and DROID RAZR MAXX, stop. You want the MAXX. A little less fashion appeal is absolutely worth it for the best in a short field of all-day battery champions. I only wish that customers were given the choice two months ago, or at least before their return... More

The top Android smartphone you can buy today, the Motorola Droid Razr Maxx combines the best materials, a fast processor, a super-speedy 4G LTE network, and a truly gigantic battery. What you get is a smartphone that's ready to be used to the max. At $299.99 with contract, the Razr Maxx is also one of... More

The Droid RAZR Maxx may deliver a lifetime of mammoth proportions, but we can't help but have mixed feelings. Why? As too often is the case (the Samsung Skyrocket series on AT&T comes to mind), Motorola and Verizon are hard at work pushing too many RAZR devices at once, and early adopters are left... More

Needless to say, some will think long and hard between the two smartphones after looking over their on-contract prices. At $200, the LG Spectrum seems mightily tempting for a 4G LTE smartphone, but in all honesty, we’d recommend forking over the extra $100 to pick up the $300 Samsung Galaxy Nexus.... More

The $299 price at Verizon, and even the $199 price at Amazon can be tough to swallow, but the Droid RAZR MAXX is worth the price. We’ve seen cheaper 4G LTE smartphones, but the Pantech Breakout, Samsung Stratosphere and older 4G LTE smartphones have lower build quality and shorter battery life.

Motorola has put together a very capable phone here, and the DROID RAZR MAXX is probably what the original DROID RAZR should have been. It is, by far, the best 4G LTE phone on Verizon for people that actually wish to make use of 4G data. No question.
The MAXX version of the Motorola DROID RAZR might... More

The $299 Droid RAZR Maxx represents an impressive feat of engineering. Motorola managed to cram a high-capacity battery inside a design that's thinner than most 4G LTE phones, enabling it to last more than twice as long on a charge as competing devices like the Samsung Galaxy Nexus (with its standard... More

There’s a lot of great options on Verizon right now: The Galaxy Nexus for the die-hard modder, the DROID RAZR for the fashionista, the Rezound for the audiophile. Where does the Spectrum fit in? Well, at $199 it fits well below the others, and has an excellent screen, solid battery life and great call... More
