Telstra T6
The T6 is the phone we never expected to see from Telstra. The price tag on the T6 is spot on for a phone with this feature set, and the Telstra Blue Tick should offer those in remote areas some peace of mind.
-
Samsung C5220
The C5220 is a passable prepaid from Telstra. Its low-specs are elevated somewhat by Next G compatibility, though there's little else to recommend it.
-
Telstra Turbo 21 modem
Telstra's Turbo 21 delivered the fastest wireless broadband experience we've seen. This excellent performance will be enough to justify its high price for some.
-
Telstra T165i
The Country Phone will feel at home in those remote areas that struggle with mobile coverage. It makes up for an absence of bells and whistles with great performance of its essential features.

Samsung A811
Samsung asks us to imagine the world's fastest phone when thinking about the A811. Whether this is the way it should be thought of is yet to be seen, but access to the Web via Telstra's Next G is definitely a step in the right direction. The A811 will be available with a 2-inch screen, a 3 megapixel camera with auto focus and video recording, and media playback for a standard range of audio files.

Telstra Next G Prepaid Broadband
Telstra's prepaid wireless broadband offering is good for casual browsers or those who'd rather avoid dodgy Net cafes, but beware — there's a pricing sting to be considered.
-
Samsung A411
The A411 looks decidedly retro-styled, but as an entry-level Next G phone it performs surprisingly well.
