As this is Alcatel's first attempt at an Android phone, you have to give it points for trying. Unfortunately, with the Authority's glacial processor and dated operating system, let's hope Alcatel will only improve from here on out.
All right, we guess we can forgive its use of an outdated slang word (at least it's not worse, say, ZTE Daddy-O?). But we really couldn't look past its low-resolution touch screen that you can't even really view well at certain angles. Also not helping are its cheap toylike build and poor audio quality. Read the full review.
The ZTE Anthem 4G from MetroPCS
(Credit: Sarah Tew/CNET)What's worse than early-2000s pop-punk band Good Charlotte's song, "The Anthem"? Probably ZTE's Anthem. Not only is it slow, it has an unattractively thick profile, a blue-tinted screen with a narrow viewing angle, and a ho-hum camera.
Not everyone needs the most high-tech phone available on the market -- we completely understand that. But that's still no excuse to put out even a mediocre feature phone like the Verge. With its inconsistent call quality, frustrating Web browser, and terrible camera, we say pass this one up.
Pantech Hotshot , October 2011
Although the Hotshot makes decent calls, its laggy processor and unresponsive touch screen proved to be too frustrating. Rather than creating a mediocre hybrid of smartphone and feature phone, it's best to make a solid version of just one or the other
