LG GW520 review

Tue, 03 Nov 2009 15:47:02 +0000

Packing a resistive touchscreen and slide-out Qwerty keyboard into a relatively compact chassis, the GW520 aims to appeal to social-networking fiends. The lack of Wi-Fi connectivity is disappointing, but the keyboard is excellent and the menu system is refreshingly easy to navigate

Sony Ericsson T715 review

Fri, 16 Oct 2009 09:53:01 +0000

The T715's unfussy appearance and straightforward operation match its no-nonsense name. But it still packs plenty of features into its attractive chassis, including a 3.2-megapixel camera, a music player and 3G connectivity. For those tired of over-complicated handsets, it's well worth a look

Sony Ericsson W395 Walkman review

Fri, 02 Oct 2009 15:17:01 +0000

The budget W395 Walkman music phone may not offer a fantastic screen or camera, but it punches above its weight in pretty much every other department. Its music player is excellent, the on-board speakers are great and it offers a decent feature set. At its current pay-as-you-go price, it's a steal

Nokia E55 review

Mon, 28 Sep 2009 13:52:02 +0000

The E55 smart phone impresses for numerous reasons. Its hybrid alphanumeric/Qwerty keypad is surprisingly effective once you get used to it, it offers excellent battery life, it's easy to use, and, for a smart phone, it's amazingly slim. Overall, this is a great handset

Sony Ericsson W205 Walkman review

Thu, 24 Sep 2009 14:21:01 +0000

You wouldn't flash it around down the pub, but the W205 Walkman is a decent music phone for those on a budget. Its sound quality is good, you can record tracks from the FM tuner, and its slider design is fairly slick. A bigger screen would've been welcome, but you can't complain too much about a phone this cheap

Acer Tempo M900 review

Wed, 23 Sep 2009 12:45:02 +0000

Running Windows Mobile 6.1, the Tempo M900 is a relatively bulky smart phone. But that has its advantages -- the screen is one of the largest we've seen on such a device, and the keys on the slide-out Qwerty keyboard are also relatively big. Its performance isn't too shoddy either

LG Viewty Smart GC900 review

Wed, 08 Jul 2009 09:27:02 +0000

The follow-up to the popular Viewty KU990, the touchscreen Viewty Smart GC900 packs an 8-megapixel camera into a slim package, sports a bright and clear screen, and offers a wealth of camera and editing options. But can this slip of a phone really snap a shot worth saving?

Apple iPhone 3GS review

Fri, 19 Jun 2009 10:43:02 +0000

With longer battery life, increased memory, speedier performance and a souped-up camera, Apple's latest iPhone is a worthwhile update. The 3G S isn't hugely different to the 3G, so not all 3G owners will want to upgrade, but it offers a great user experience and, for now, is the king of smart phones

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

Nokia 5800 XpressMusic review

Fri, 16 Jan 2009 17:36:02 +0000

The 5800, Nokia's first touchscreen phone, has video, music and GPS features to get the heart racing, but these are offset by a disappointing touch experience. While there's nothing outrageously wrong with the 5800, we're sure Nokia has better touchscreens to come
