Conclusion: We're mixed

The LG Marquee is a fairly average 3G Android Smartphone, available for about $279 on the Boost Mobile prepaid service. While it's light, and has a great display and a decent camera, its price still seems steep for a phone running an older version of Android on a slower network. Most Boost customers are likely to be better served by a phone like the ZTE Warp, which has the same version of Android and runs on the same 3G network. Its display isn't nearly as good, and it's somewhat heavier, but it's also just $199.

The bottom line: With its fashionable good looks and affordable price, the LG Marquee is one of our top choices among Android phones for Sprint if you don't need 4G.

LG's Marquee Android smartphone for Sprint is a solid offering from the Korean handset maker. While it may not be a flagship device with every bell and whistle, it performs when and where it counts most.

The camera performance could be better at times and battery life may be a concern for some, but the ultra-thin form-factor, super crisp display and good phone performance will draw plenty of users who want more out of their phone but don’t need a top-of-the-line device.
