Today (December 7) is the day the January issue of Consumer Reports hits the newsstands; it's also the day we post the issue's stories and Ratings at Consumer Reports Online. Although Ratings are available only to our subscribers, we also offer plenty of advice and information to everyone.
The January issue is focused on cell phones: the best new models, best and worst service providers, and more. Here's a link to our free cell phone content; enjoy, and remember that as a subscriber, you'll get to see all of our review and Ratings information as well.
Best cell phones and plans (overview)
