Consumer watchdog Choice rated two Android phones ahead of the Apple iPhone 4 in a recent smartphone test.
HTC and Samsung topped the latest ‘What to Buy' list with higher rankings than the 16 GB version of the iPhone 4 at half the cost.
The HTC Wildfire headed up the list of 27 reviewed mobiles, featuring Android OS 2.1, one of the best cameras on a mid-range phone, high display quality and also excelling at web browsing.
The Samsung Galaxy 580 came in second, running a wealth of functions on the same OS as the Wildfire but with a screen quality and camera downgrade. The phone does come at a significant price dip though, selling for $329 as opposed to the Wildfire's $480.
Apple's iPhone 4 (16GB) falls behind Android at third, but comes in strong ahead of many others with its ease-of-use, wealth of apps, high quality display, dual-facing cameras and internal memory. Being one of the few phones without a memory card slot and being premium priced at $859 set it back.
Nokia took the fourth and fifth spots, with the Symbian OS holding the brand down with dated functionality and application support.
