| | A high cellphone bill has become a staple of modern life for most people, alongside rising gas costs and the dreaded home cable bill. The average wireless subscriber pays $61.15 per month for service, up $5.35 from just three years ago, according to a study by New Street Research. Despite an endless stream of new offers and promotions from competing cellular carriers, that number will most likely continue to rise. If your monthly cellphone bill is starting to feel like a burden on your wallet — or if it already is — there are plenty of ways to cut the costs.  | | | |

|  | | |  | | | Even as large phones and phablets pop up everywhere, some people still want a phone they can easily use with one hand. The HTC One Remix (free with a 2-year contract, $450 full price) is a smaller version of the manufacturer's One M8, appearing very similar in design, but lacking the same power. The HTC One Remix competes with similarly sized phones such as the Droid Mini and the Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini, and its specs place it strongly in the midrange smartphone category. So how does it stack up?  | | | |  | | | Motorola gave its flagship Moto X a major overhaul for 2014, but it hasn't forgotten about the phone's little brother. The refreshed Moto G ($180 unlocked) has a bigger 5-inch, 720p display than its predecessor and louder speakers, while retaining the curvy, customizable shell. You also get a clean build of Android 4.4 KitKat, supplemented by handy apps such as Motorola Assist and Alert. Is this the budget Android phone to beat?  | | | | | | |
