Reviews

  • Vodafone Internet Stick

    For those blessed with excellent 3G reception in their homes the Vodafone Internet Stick will serve you well. Be sure to check Vodafone's coverage map before coughing up the cash.

  • Sagem my511x

    Like a bug in amber, the buttons on the 511 are maddeningly trapped within a translucent substance. For this reason, we can't recommend it.

  • Palm Treo 500v

    Although it's a good smartphone, the Treo 500v needs either Wi-Fi or HSDPA to deliver that knockout punch.

  • Vodafone 1210

    Want a Blackberry, but can't stretch the business budget to afford one? Vodafone's 1210 might suit your needs, but you'll need to put up with a lot of compromises along the way.

  • Vodafone Mobile Connect 3G HSDPA USB Modem

    Vodafone's compact USB modem boosts accessibility to the telco's high-speed 3G mobile network — but the speed can range from over 2Mbps to less than 300Kbps depending on your location.

  • Vodafone Mobile Connect 3G HSDPA Card

    Vodafone's enhanced notebook PC Card delivers what the mobile telco calls 'business class 3G broadband' — but until more of the 3G network is upgraded with HSDPA, most users will remain stuck in economy seats.

  • Sony Ericsson V630i

    The Vodafone-exclusive V630i is a good all-round 3G handset with a decent range of features that will appeal to a broad-range of users.

  • Sagem my400v

    The Sagem my400v is an ultra-thin, inexpensive and basic mobile phone. It's a lightweight handset with a built-in VGA camera and not much else.
