Reviews

  • Navman MY500XT

    Improved, but still deeply flawed. We'd suggest checking out the lesser fruit from the Navman tree first.

  • Sony Ericsson Yari

    The Yari looks great but doesn't have stellar features or applications. If you're in it for the games then be prepared for a serious disappointment.

  • Bose SoundDock 10

    While it's expensive and isn't loaded with features, the Bose SoundDock 10 is classy looking and sounds excellent for a compact iPod/iPhone speaker.

  • 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.

  • Samsung HD Icon

    If you have a desktop hard drive full of media files that you wish you could take with you on the train to work, there is no better phone than the HD Icon.

  • Samsung Omnia Icon

    Its excellent multimedia support, storage and gorgeous display make the Omnia better for people who put pleasure before business.

  • 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.

  • BlackBerry Curve 8520

    With the BlackBerry Curve 8520, RIM has done a good job of creating an affordable phone with all the right features, although you might miss 3G connectivity. Just make sure you get it in black.
