Reviews

  • Samsung S6700T

    If you're looking for an inexpensive phone with a nice, simple interface and a decent number of features, you won't be disappointed with the Samsung S6700T.

    Specs: Slider , Bluetooth, Next G, 3G, HSDPA , 110 MB, Numerical keypad

  • Uniden BTSC1500

    It tries to pack a few too many features on to the one button, but otherwise the BTSC1500 makes for a good in-car companion.

  • Sony Ericsson HCB-105

    If you never plan to share it and will never use it in a loud vehicle, the HCB-105 is a good sounding, simple to use choice. Everyone else should look elsewhere.

    Specs: Speakerphone

  • HTC Tattoo

    If you want an affordable Android smartphone, the Tattoo will fit the bill. Power users should look elsewhere.

    Specs: Bluetooth, Wi-Fi (802.11b/g) , GPRS, WAP, EDGE, UMTS, HSDPA , 3-megapixel , microSD

  • Cygnett GrooveTransmit

    It mightn't offer the best fidelity, but the GrooveTransmit is a handy, non-invasive way of getting your MP3 collection to play through the car stereo.

  • Sony Ericsson Xperia X10

    Sony Ericsson has finally satisfied our curiosity and thrown the covers off its first Android-powered handset. A veritable powerhouse, the X10 features a 1GHz processor and a high resolution 4-inch display.

    Specs: Bluetooth, Wi-Fi (802.11b/g) , GPRS, WAP, EDGE, UMTS, HSDPA , 8-megapixel , microSD

  • Mophie Juice Pack Air

    It costs a pretty penny, but for people who need more juice in their iPhone, the Juice Pack Air is worth every cent.

    Specs: Case

  • Sony Ericsson Yari

    The Yari looks great but doesn't have stellar features or applications. If you're in it for the games then be prepared for a serious disappointment.

    Specs: Slider , Bluetooth, 3G, HSDPA , Numerical keypad , microSD
