These four cell phones changed the industry as we know it, but there can only be one winner.

The HTC Thunderbolt, the first 4G LTE smartphone for Verizon Wireless, has the fastest Web speeds we've ever seen, but be prepared to carry an extra battery.

Tech companies have had their share of public relations train wrecks. Let's take a look back at the carnage.

Ten cases of cold-blooded tech murder at the hands of innovation itself

The first LTE smartphone available in the U.S., the Samsung Galaxy Indulge is the most powerful handset you'll find on MetroPCS. But you can get better bang for your buck.

The HTC Inspire 4G, AT&T's premiere Android phone (at least for now) can hold its own against the iPhone 4 and other top smartphones.

The HTC EVO Shift 4G is a powerful, less costly alternative to the EVO 4G on Sprint, and gives hardware keyboard fans another choice besides the Samsung Epic 4G.

The Samsung Epic 4G is Sprint's top keyboarded smartphone, and it's the right choice for power users who like physical buttons.

Apple's iPhone 4 adds a gorgeous screen, terrific camera and faster processor to add to Apple's awesome app experience, but voice calling still isn't this phone's priority.

The Motorola Droid X takes the crown for the most powerful Android smartphone away from the HTC Droid Incredible.

The first WiMAX phone in the U.S. is a terrific platform for streaming media and Web browsing, and it gets your laptop online with Sprint's 4G network. Just keep an eye out for an outlet when you're only using 4G.

The Nokia 7705 Twist isn't a great performer, but it offers Verizon subscribers looking for a messaging device a way to stand out from the crowd—and you can even see through it.

The voice-controlled BlueAnt Q1 is a looker and a solid effort from a company that's fast gaining ground with its line of Bluetooth headsets—but the competition has moved further ahead still.

Though it has great features for business travelers, this iPAQ's small screen and lousy battery life may ultimately lead to frustration.

An all-around winner, the Sanyo SCP-8400 has the right balance of voice quality, multimedia, and Internet features for a midrange cell phone.

Cingular has the infrastructure to deliver compelling video content, but it isn't available nationwide.

This excellent phone, e-mail, and Web surfing device will make Q a favorite letter for Verizon customers.

Kids will love this blinking, vibrating, customizable phone. But adults may be turned off by the Nokia 3220's brash personality.
