Reviews

  • Nokia X6

    Nokia has announced its next Comes with Music handset, and it looks to be the goods. Gone is the resistive touchscreens of its earlier models, plus it has a whopping 32GB of storage to keep your music on.

  • Nokia N86 8MP

    There's a lot to like about the N86 8MP, but it's hard to fall in love with it too. While it's well made with good features, it looks and feels like a phone from several years ago.

  • Nokia 5230

    Nokia looks set to flood the market with its growing touchscreen line-up across all the major segments, with the 5230 filling the budget model gap.

  • The Beatles: Rock Band

    After a string of disappointing Guitar Hero franchises, Harmonix looks to reinvent the "band-based" rhythm game genre with The Beatles: Rock Band.

  • Sony Walkman X-series (16GB) NWZ-X1050

    Great sound, brilliant OLED touchscreen, noise cancellation and as much YouTube as your Wi-Fi can handle. Shame about the extortionate price.

  • Nokia E75

    Nokia's E75 looks the part and mostly performs well too, but its single day battery life is a major let-down when compared to last year's E-Series offerings.

  • Sony Ericsson W302 Walkman

    The Sony Ericsson W302 Walkman delivers good sound quality in a neat design for a low price. For those who want a decent, inexpensive phone that plays music, it's a good choice, but don't bother with the poor camera and web browser.

  • Sony Ericsson C510

    The C510 rises high above its low price tag and our prepaid prejudices. The camera is decent and it's assisted by excellent shooting modes and settings.
