It's hard to mention the Samsung Galaxy range of smartphones without mentioning the sheer range of devices that it covers, from the highest end powerhouses such as the Samsung Galaxy S4 , all the way through to the wallet-friendly Samsung Galaxy Fame .

Free on contract with Sprint; Nice-looking AMOLED screen; Compact size is one-hand-friendly; Expandable storage

Awkward position for the microSD slot; Disappointing camera with low light; Price above average; Below average screen resolution

Samsung duplicates a lot of Google's features; still expensive; lack of internal storage is a problem; speakers aren't brilliant
