Reviews

  • LG Xenon

    Matching a touchscreen with a full-QWERTY keyboard at this price point is fantastic. Anyone looking to make their cyber-life mobile should check out the Xenon.

  • Motorola MOTOSURF A3100

    The MOTOSURF A3100 is a valiant attempt at a Windows Mobile handset, but its various problems affect important aspects of the phone and spoil the overall experience of using it.

  • Samsung UltraTouch (S8300)

    Its camera is great and the screen looks amazing, but the UltraTouch is not a knockout. It's a weird mix of business looks, average apps and dodgy performance, and we just can't tell who exactly Samsung is trying to sell it to.

  • Samsung S7330

    The S7330 is little more than a basic mobile phone with a flashy-looking touch panel for navigation. It works well but it's a little pricey for the phone you actually get.

  • HTC Dream

    Google's Android is awesome, but the Dream needs work. Parts of this handset are superb, but its lacklustre design and poor battery life hold it back significantly.

  • HTC Touch HD

    The Touch HD is a fantastic phone, if you can afford one. It out-performs every HTC phone previously and looks fantastic doing it.

  • Telstra EasyTouch Discovery

    The EasyTouch Discovery is the perfect first phone for people who are not confident with mobile technology. Designed for ease of use, the Discovery has a few extra toys to play with once you've mastered the basics.

  • 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.

  • LG Chocolate phone: Simple but stunning

    We still can't get our heads around why LG chose "Chocolate" as the pet name for its KG800 mobile phone -- is it because it's desirable, comes in chocolate box-shapped packaging or has smooth, touch-sensitive navigation?
