The Nokia G50 is a $300 with a 5G connection, which is a decent benefit but mostly for the future. Today, you'll want to get it for other reasons.

Moto Z4 review

Motorola’s new phone is the Moto Z4, a midrange device powered by the Snapdragon 675 with 4GB of RAM. It has a 48-megapixel rear camera and uses Quad Pixel technology for better low-light photos, but it’s not as impressive as it sounds.

LG G7 ThinQ review

LG hasn’t had the best luck with its G-series smartphones. The modular G5 flopped, and the G6 didn’t garner much interest. The LG G7 ThinQ is the latest in the series, and it has incredible speakers and a super bright display -- can it pull Apple, Google, and Samsung loyalists? Here’s our review.

Palm review (Connected model)

The all-new, Verizon-exclusive, Palm syncs to your primary smartphone and acts as a secondary device -- with features to help balance smartphone usage. But after spending some time with it, its poor camera quality and awful battery life are only a few of the issues we have with the device.
