Reviews

i-mate 810-F

Though able to withstand extreme conditions, the i-mate 810-F doesn't have a design that makes you feel like you have to carry it in a large backpack and, best of all, it is meant to be easily available to the regular consumer.
Maxon Visimax Projector

Despite the promise of its tiny size, the Maxon Visimax projector is little more than a gimmick, and an expensive one at that.
Nokia E71

With its combination of excellent features and performance, matched with sleek design and its affordable price tag, Nokia's E71 manages to outshine recently released smartphones as our business phone of choice.
Sony Ericsson W760i

The W760i is a solid performer, and we've found it hard to fault this handset during our tests. Yet, with strong competition hot on its heels, the W760i falls short of bowling us over.
i-mate JAMA 201

The JAMA 201 smartphone looks the part of a smartphone, but it's not good enough to be the real deal.
HTC Touch Cruise

While the touchscreen PDA experience won't be for everyone, the Touch Cruise stands out as our favourite of the recent HTC releases.
i-mate Ultimate 9502

The i-mate Ultimate 9502 is one of the best smartphones we have come across -- and if you're happy with Telstra -- the i-mate 9502 makes an excellent alternative to a Blackberry or iPhone.
i-mate Ultimate 8502

The first HSPA smartphone released in Australia may also be the best Windows Mobile available to date.
