Best touchscreen phones with keyboards

Mon, 07 Dec 2009 11:59:02 +0000

It's touchscreen madness these days, but keyboards remain a must-have for business users and keen texters. Here are four of the best touchscreen mobile phones with keyboards

BlackBerry Bold 9700 review

Thu, 12 Nov 2009 11:08:01 +0000

The Bold 9700 is the best of the BlackBerry bunch, offering all the features that made previous models great and improving on everything else. It may not be as innovative as its smart-phone rivals, but its zippy performance, vivid screen and reliable email service are very appealing

Palm Pre (UK version) review

Tue, 06 Oct 2009 23:00:00 +0000

The Pre has finally landed on UK shores, and it's been well worth the wait. It's a beautifully designed, intuitive and speedy smart phone whose multi-tasking capability gives it at least one leg up on the iPhone. The App Catalog needs some attention, but Palm says it's on the case

Motorola Dext review

Thu, 01 Oct 2009 16:58:01 +0000

The Dext smart phone breathes new life into the cooling corpse of Motorola's mobile-phone efforts. It looks frumpy, but its fun social-networking features, peppy touchscreen and slide-out Qwerty keyboard help make it a solid Android handset that should appeal to Twitter addicts and Facebook freaks

Samsung Galaxy i7500 review

Fri, 18 Sep 2009 17:03:01 +0000

Samsung has joined the Android fray with a flourish, flaunting the Galaxy i7500's flashy AMOLED screen and 5-megapixel camera with LED light. It doesn't toot its own trumpet with a conservative black design, but inside it parades all the power of the Android operating system and its many apps

T-Mobile Pulse review

Thu, 17 Sep 2009 11:21:02 +0000

The first pay-as-you-go Android phone, T-Mobile's Pulse is well worth its meagre price tag. It's not without its flaws, such as a plasticky body and fairly sluggish on-screen keyboards, but it offers a large touchscreen and affordable access to the scintillating world of Android apps

Palm Pre (US version) review

Thu, 04 Jun 2009 16:32:02 +0000

It's not without its flaws, but, when the Pre's good, it's very good. Its multitasking functionality and notifications system, for example, are streets ahead of the competition, and the webOS is a really solid and stable platform. The iPhone may still have the edge but Palm is back in the game

Motorola Aura review

Mon, 30 Mar 2009 16:02:02 +0000

The Aura feels like luxury from the moment you crack open its swanky leather box. It's weighty stainless-steel body and stunning round screen will impress the crowd, but it's light on advanced features. For those seeking a luxury phone for making calls and not much else, the Aura could be your hand candy

Best music phones with standard 3.5mm sockets

Fri, 24 Oct 2008 14:58:02 +0000

If a music phone doesn't have a real headphone socket, we're not going to recommend it very highly -- unless it blows us away in ever other way. Here are four favourite music phones that work with decent headphones natively

Motorola ZINE ZN5 review

Wed, 08 Oct 2008 16:13:02 +0000

The Motorola ZINE ZN5's camera is one of the better ones to have graced a phone, with impressive low-light performance and 5-megapixel action. It's got a 3.5mm jack and amazing battery life, so you can play around on it for hours. But there are some drawbacks to keep in mind, most notably the phone's lack of 3G support
