The Bottom Line	With an understated design and a solid feature set, the Samsung SCH-A870 is a great midtier offering from Verizon.	The Samsung SCH-U340 isn't a bad low-end camera phone, but it may be too simple for some users.	The Samsung SCH-U550 doesn't offer the performance or design that we'd expect from a 3G Verizon Wireless cell phone.	The LG V8300 is a well-designed and high-performing EV-DO phone for Verizon Wireless.	The Motorola W385 is a dependable cell phone without confusing bells and whistles.
