The Bottom Line	The Samsung SCH-A950 is an attractive 3G cell phone with decent features, but some annoying restrictions remain.	If you're looking for a cell phone that is fashionable and has good call quality, the Samsung Gleam SCH-U700 is a solid bet. Video playback isn't so hot, but it's a decent phone on the whole.	The Samsung SCH-U550 doesn't offer the performance or design that we'd expect from a 3G Verizon Wireless cell phone.	The LG VX8350 is an excellent multimedia phone that's compact as well as powerful.	The Samsung Knack SCH-U310 is one of the best basic phones on the market. If you need a handset for making calls, you can't go wrong.
