LG New Chocolate

Reviews

Jabra M5390 USB

Jabra's business-centric Bluetooth headset might be pitched at the boardroom, but it made us feel like we were stuck in a call centre.
Sony Ericsson HBH-IV840

The HBH-IV840 works well and looks fantastic doing it, but its price tag is outrageous for a headset with basic features.
LG GM730

The GM730's feature set makes it feel like it belongs in 2008. Unless you really like the design, there are much better WiMo phones out there to choose from.
Sony Ericsson T707

Call us shallow but we like the little T707 for its body, not for its brains. This sexy handset is great at the basics, but lacks any techy extras.
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.
Motorola VE538

The VE538 makes a great phone for someone who doesn't expect the extras. Motorola keeps the price of the VE538 low, but leaves out important accessories to do so.
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 HBH-PV740

It certainly looks the part, but this hands-free headset from Sony Ericsson struggles to give us what we want most — clear call quality.
