Best New Smart Phones – #9: LG Viper (Sprint)

Source: LG

What's The Big Deal: Eco-Friendly. The LG Viper's claim to fame is not a bleeding-edge feature, but the phone itself – like the Exhilarate, Viper is an "eco-friendly" phone, made from 35 percent recycled plastics, but also includes "a charger with a no-load consumption rating of .03W, which exceeds the EC [European Commission] Code of Conduct on energy efficiency," according to Sprint. Even if I don't know what all that means, Viper sounds ecologically responsible. As a phone, Viper runs Android 2.3.5 and is equipped with a 4-inch touchscreen, a 1.2 GHz dual-core processor, a 5 MP rear-facing camera and a VGA front-facing camera, Wi-Fi, and is another Google Wallet phone. No word on price or sales date.
