    HP iPAQ Voice Messenger

    24 Mar 2009 12:32 PM

    The iPAQ Voice Messenger is at best, mediocre. There's nothing here that HTC, BlackBerry or Apple don't already do better, and unless your company already has a great HP contract, it's hard to recommend.

    Specs: Candybar , Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, 3G, HSDPA , 128 MB, QWERTY keyboard , microSD , 3-megapixel

  • Samsung HD Icon

    If you have a desktop hard drive full of media files that you wish you could take with you on the train to work, there is no better phone than the HD Icon.

    Specs: Touchscreen , Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, 3G, HSDPA , 8000 MB, Touchscreen , microSD , 8-megapixel

  • Nokia 6710 Navigator

    17 Sep 2009 2:42 PM

    Nokia's third Navigator in the series is the best of the bunch thus far, though its small screen will dissuade many from binning their TomToms for in-car use.

    Specs: Slider , Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, 3G, HSDPA , 50 MB, Numerical keypad , microSD , 5-megapixel

  • HTC Touch Pro2

    16 Jul 2009 2:37 PM

    Those who can afford the Touch Pro2 will be buying a feature-rich smartphone with a unique conference calling feature and a decent suite of business apps.

    Specs: Slider , Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, 3G, HSDPA , 288 MB, QWERTY keyboard, Touchscreen , microSD , 3-megapixel

  • LG Arena

    22 Apr 2009 3:58 PM

    LG's touchscreen features class-leading multimedia support, but we're not convinced it makes an excellent phone. Its flashy new interface looks great but tends to make things slower and more difficult.

    Specs: Touchscreen , Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Next G, 3G, HSDPA , 8000 MB, Touchscreen , microSD , 5-megapixel

  • Nokia 6700

    28 Jul 2009 1:56 PM

    The Nokia 6700 Classic is not a fancy-pants smartphone, but its high quality, 5-megapixel camera and brilliant screen help make this phone a front-runner in the mid-range market.

    Specs: Candybar , Bluetooth, 3G, HSDPA , 170 MB, Numerical keypad , 5-megapixel

    Sony Ericsson G705

    13 Jan 2009 3:47 PM

    The G705 looks like a nicely designed slider, but without any new technology or a smartphone OS to lure us to it, the G705 will have to be priced carefully, or we expect it to be lost amongst the crowd.

    Specs: Slider , Bluetooth, 3G, HSDPA , 120 MB, Numerical keypad , Memory Stick Duo , 3-megapixel

  • Nokia 5800 XpressMusic

    24 Mar 2009 2:57 PM

    Nokia may have been late to the touchscreen party but we like what it's finally delivered; a responsive, full-featured phone with some deal-making extras.

    Specs: Touchscreen , Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Next G, 3G, HSDPA , 84 MB, Touchscreen , microSD , 3-megapixel

  • Samsung Omnia

    30 Oct 2008 5:02 PM

    In terms of features the Omnia stands out as one of the best smartphones to date. It's a shame this doesn't translate into a phone we'd enjoy using from day to day.

    Specs: Touchscreen , Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, 3G, HSDPA , 16000 MB, Touchscreen , microSD , 5-megapixel

    Nokia N85

    18 Dec 2008 2:43 PM

    The Nokia N85 is another solid N-series phone but if you're looking for something different this won't be your bag.

    Specs: Slider , Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, HSDPA , 74 MB, Numerical keypad , microSD , 5-megapixel
