The Bottom Line	The Samsung Instinct stands out as one of Sprint's finest devices to date. It's just too bad its call quality could use some improvement.	The LG Dare is an innovative and feature-rich handset with several surprises that sets it apart from other touch-screen phones.	Despite a few quibbles with the touch screen, its full features and excellent performance make the LG Vu one of the hottest phones this year.	The LG Lotus has an eye-catching design, top-notch features, and great performance, making it one of the top messaging phones available from Sprint.	Though we had some minor complaints here and there, the Voyager's sleek design, generous feature set and excellent performance make it the best LG messaging and multimedia phone by far.
