Unboxing the Motorola Milestone

We've been dying to get our hands on the Motorola Milestone (aka Droid in the US) since the moment we heard it was announced.

HTC Hero

With excellent web browsing, email and access to apps, the HTC Hero is one of the few mobiles to truly challenge the iPhone this year.

Reviews

  • HTC Hero

    With excellent web browsing, email and access to apps, the HTC Hero is one of the few mobiles to truly challenge the iPhone this year.

  • Samsung Galaxy Spica (i5700)

    On the surface the Spica looks like a very competent smartphone, but we're beginning to expect a lot more from manufacturers that take on Google's OS.

  • 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.

  • Virgin Mobile Broadband WiFi modem

    This WiFi modem/router works well and provides great value on some plans, but we're still left wanting better performance out of Virgin Mobile's actual broadband.

  • Samsung NC10

    The NC10 betters previous Samsung netbooks with a built-in HSDPA SIM card reader and the portability this provides. Optus wireless broadband bundles seem like excellent value.

  • Motorola Dext

    Motorola has taken the wraps off its first Android-based smartphone and its exciting new Motoblur user interface. Can the Dext bring Motorola back from the brink?

  • Samsung Galaxy Icon

    While we like the design, Samsung needs to do more with the software. Without customisation, Android's absent features are glaringly obvious.

  • Optus E1762 USB Modem

    The hardware performs its part of the equation just fine, but if you're considering Optus' wireless broadband make sure you take advantage of its seven-day trial period.
