ZTE Warp N860

The ZTE Warp N860 is a prepaid Android smartphone that sets a new standard for prepaid handsets. Though by no means perfect, ZTE is a high-quality Android phone for the carrier-free masses.

Powered by a single-core 1GHz Qualcomm processor, the Warp is no slouch at performance. Menus flew from beneath my fingertips, and in general the phone was extremely responsive to input. Granted, you may not be able to run the most graphically intensive games, but apps such as Minecraft: Pocket Edition, Angry Birds, and Cut the Rope ran reasonably smoothly.
