Reviews

HTC Magic

Parts of the phone are as the name suggests, magic, but the absence of outstanding multimedia jeopardises the success of this latest Android.
Samsung S7330

The S7330 is little more than a basic mobile phone with a flashy-looking touch panel for navigation. It works well but it's a little pricey for the phone you actually get.
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.
HP iPAQ Voice Messenger

The iPAQ Voice Messenger is at best, mediocre. There's nothing here that HTC, BlackBerry or Apple don't already do better, and unless your company already has a great HP contract, it's hard to recommend.
HTC Touch 3G

Amongst the numerous HTC handsets this year, the unassuming Touch 3G may not make the strongest impact, but it is certainly one of our favourites.
Samsung Omnia

In terms of features the Omnia stands out as one of the best smartphones to date. It's a shame this doesn't translate into a phone we'd enjoy using from day to day.
MWg Zinc II

The Zinc II looks great on paper with HSDPA, Wi-Fi, a touchscreen and QWERTY keyboard. However, poor design mar the experience, with input being tremendously frustrating.
HP iPAQ 912c

The HP iPAQ 912c defines the middle of the road. When you consider its performance versus the price, the 912c is passable but painfully average.
