Discover Android's abilities for less (pictures)

The Samsung Galaxy Discover offers Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich for a low price. Its small 3.5-inch screen and sluggish 800MHz single-core CPU, however, don't impress.

Almost pure Android

On board the Samsung Galaxy Discover you'll find a mostly unmolested stock version of Android 4.0. The phone is saddled with some nonremovable carrier-branded applications, though.

Compact but chubby

While the Discover's chassis is relatively small, at almost half an inch thick, it's certainly not thin.

No sharpshooter here

On back of the Samsung Galaxy Discover is its only camera, a 3-megapixel number that lacks a flash to call its own.

A simple picture taker

Don't expect fancy shooting modes like HDR or panorama on the Samsung Galaxy Discover. The app is as basic as can be.

Compelling mobile tunes

As a Cricket Muve music phone, the Discover can connect to the carrier's digital music library. Best of all, you can store tracks locally for enjoying without the need for a wireless signal.

REVIEW

Meet the drop-resistant Moto Z2 Force

The Moto Z2 Force is really thin, with a fast processor and great battery life. It can survive drops without shattering.
