The Huawei IDEOS X5 was, and still is, the cheapest device around with such amazing specs. I mean you can pick up this device for just under $300 at your local Crazy John's and you'll get virtually the same specs as an HTC Desire Z minus the $500 price tag.
Pros:
  • Cheap
  • Fairly fast
  • Android 2.2 (Vanilla
  • 720p video recording
Cons:
  • A little bit bulky
  • Capacitive buttons
