CNET's mega touchscreen showdown

Choosing a touchscreen smartphone is getting more and more difficult, with fierce competition delivering excellent new features to the super desirable handsets. Which phone will stand out as the best touchscreen smartphone?

Apple iPhone 3GS (32GB)

The iPhone 3GS is faster and we appreciate the new features and extended battery life, but call quality and 3G reception still need improvement.

Reviews

  • HP iPaq Data Messenger

    Though it comes with some business-centric security features, this iPaq falls short when compared with other Windows Mobile devices out there.

  • HTC Touch 3G

    Amongst the numerous HTC handsets this year, the unassuming Touch 3G may not make the strongest impact, but it is certainly one of our favourites.

  • Samsung Omnia

    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.

  • Samsung i200

    An elegant smartphone that both excites and disappoints at the same time.

  • HP iPAQ 912c

    The HP iPAQ 912c defines the middle of the road. When you consider its performance versus the price, the 912c is passable but painfully average.

  • Motorola MC75

    Enterprises looking to deploy a rugged, versatile mobile device will be impressed by the Motorola MC75's range of features. However, you pay a premium for smartphone functionality in a hardened form; this phone is not only tough, it is massive to the point of being unwieldy.

  • HP iPAQ 612c Business Navigator

    HP's latest iPAQ, the 612c Business Navigator, is a solid offering with lots of features and good battery life. It's a bland-looking and giant handset, but good performance and crisp touchscreen somewhat make up for the poor keypad.

  • Nokia E66

    While we like the E71 better, the E66 is a great smartphone with class leading features. If you want the functionality of a business phone without the bulk of a PDA form factor, the E66 is the phone you've been looking for.
