Nexus S 4G (Sprint) is the 4G, mobile Internet speedier, version of Google’s benchmark Nexus S phone. The Nexus S 4G just barely topped our list as most listed are those dual-core processing doohickeys… this one is no slouch in terms of speed, it has a good rear camera for pics and HD video, front camera for video calls, offers a pure Google user experience, and gets first dibs on updates when Google rolls them out. |

HTC Inspire 4G (AT&T) elbowed its way on to our list as it’s like an EVO but for AT&T, and we know how hot the EVO was/still is as it topped our 2010 list. With all the bells and whistles of a snappy phone, capable of faster mobile Internet, large and lush screen, easy user experience thanks to HTC Sense baked in, and the price of $100 bucks on contract- it is very tempting for AT&T customers. If only AT&T would get around to allowing it to install non-Google Android Market apps, this guy will be able to get Amazon App Store.  |

DROID X2 (Verizon) the successor of the awesome DROID X, basically has everything under the hood as its predecessor except it’s dual-core, meaning it’s potentially twice as fast. Other differences are in the touch screen display quality and notably this guy can record up to full 1080p HD video! |

Samsung GALAXY S II (Unlocked) can accept a SIM card so you can use it in the States or abroad. It’s the benchmark of Samsung’s awesome line up of phones for 2011. With it’s iPhone 4-ish couture it strikes a fair ground between variants like the big-boi Infuse 4G. The first thing you notice about the Samsung GALAXY S II is how beautifully mesmerizing the screen is (thanks to Super AMOLED Plus technology), how fast it operates (because of the dual-core processors) and how thin and light it is. |

HTC Sensation 4G (T-Mobile) is a sign that super Android phones still come to the carrier. Capable of 4G fast mobile Internet, it is a multimedia hog with built-in medium sources like HTC Watch video service, plus it can playback and record full 1080p HD video. HTC upped the ante with dual-core 1.2GHz processors for even faster performance. |
