PCWorld: Roundup – Top Android-based iPhone Alternatives

PC World’s line-up of the summer’s hottest Android smartphones includes models from Motorola (2), Samsung and HTC (2), available mainly from Verizon and Sprint.


“In the world of smartphones, two distinct camps have started to form. On the one side, you have the infamous Apple devotees. These folks like having a simple, neat and tightly controlled user experience; they like what Steve Jobs hands them, and they’re OK with doing things the Apple way.

On the other side, you have the rapidly growing Android army. These users don’t want to be locked into one phone, one design or one set of options. They appreciate being able to pick a mobile device that suits their needs — and then being able to use it the way they want, installing the programs they choose and customizing the phone as they see fit.”
