“You know what I really hate? Smartphones. Our lives would be so much better without them.” Said no one. Ever.
In the world we live in today, smartphones play a significant role in our lives and affect us all in one way or another. Unfortunately, it doesn’t take very long for our shiny new phones and smartphones to become outdated, experience glitches, or flat out stop working.
So if you’re looking for a new smartphone, I present to you three of the best Android phones on the market right now. And no, the iPhone 5S and iPhone 5C are not on this list, because it’s time to give the other phones on the dance floor the spotlight for a change.
HTC One
What better way to start off this list then to talk about a phone that is literally called “One?” This phone has received universal acclaim and recognition for its sleek design, sharp display, and great sounding speaker. If you’re in the market for a phone of the highest quality, the HTC One is definitely worth checking out. $149.99 with Verizon contract.
Samsung Galaxy S4
Powerful, innovative, and all around gorgeous. These are words people have used to describe the Samsung Galaxy S4. Samsung has always been known for making great smartphones, and the Galaxy S4 proves that. With its stunning display, innovative interface, and overall power, the Samsung Galaxy S4 is one smartphone to definitely consider buying. $199.99 with AT&T contract.
Nexus 4
If you’re looking for a high-end smartphone for half the price of its competitors, then the Google Nexus 4 is the phone for you! The Google Nexus 4 is equipped with a beautiful display and powerful hardware; all within a exquisite design. With the features mentioned and so much more, the Google Nexus 4 is the best “bang for your buck” smartphone out there. $19.99 with T-Mobile contract.
