Good: ZTE's Boost Max sports a premium build, a competitive off-contract price, and expandable memory.
Bad: Both the handset's call and camera quality are middling, and 4G LTE data speeds were consistently slow in our tests.
Bottom Line: Consider the Boost Max if you want a cheap Android handset with a lot of screen. But if you can pay a little extra, the Samsung Galaxy Mega 6.3 is the better budget phablet. [Read more]

Good: Pomodoro Timer is an easy to use timer app that helps break up your workday into work sessions and short breaks. The short breaks keep your mind and body fresh.
Bad: The user-interface on first launch is confusing. There is no iPad version.
Bottom Line: Pomodoro Timer is great for people who want to be more productive, making it easy to work in bite-sized chunks, but you'll need to commit to the concept. [Read more]

Good: The Samsung Galaxy Light gives you 4G LTE, a decent processor, and a pocket-friendly form for under $250. Call quality is strong, too.
Bad: Camera images seemed dull and soft on the Light's 5-megapixel shooter, and the 4-inch screen makes the virtual keyboard feel cramped.
Bottom Line: Buy the Samsung Galaxy Light if you're looking for Android on a budget -- just be aware that you're trading price for performance. [Read more]

Good: Zubie sets up quickly and costs less than similar connected car devices. It shows vehicle trip information and includes a geofencing feature.
Bad: Zubie doesn't include a Web-based interface, only an app, and offers no information about a car's fuel economy.
Bottom Line: The Zubie Connected Car Service keeps good track of the family car and can help people be better drivers, but the lack of fuel economy information is a big miss. [Read more]
