BlackBerry Storm / Thunder / 9500

The clickable touch-screen UI is generally excellent, as is the video function and the social networking apps

The clickable touch-screen UI is generally excellent, as is the video function and the social networking apps.

There is no Wi-Fi and BlackBerry fanatics will find the virtual keypad fiddly.

If it had Wi-Fi, this would have been a five-star phone

Nokia N85

The N85's navigational experience is among the best we have ever encountered.

The N85's navigational experience is among the best we have ever encountered.

Despite being boxed with an 8GB memory card, 85MB of internal memory is rather pitiful.

An excellent all-rounder that is sure not to remain in the N96's shadow

HTC Touch Viva

The Touch Viva has a nice design, and it is responsive and easy to use.

It lacks 3G and GPS.

Anyone with an original Touch might consider an upgrade

O2 Xda Zest

O2 prepay customers could be attracted to Windows Mobile for the first time.

The Zest has a good user interface, nice design, and plenty of features.

It doesn't offer any unique features compared with other Windows Mobile smartphones in the market.

HTC G1 with Google (Google Phone)

The Google Android platform has wedged open the door for new applications.

The Google Android platform unearths an abundance of possibilities in terms of applications, from the ridiculous to the sublime.

While we can just about forgive the lack of a 3.5mm headset port, to not include Stereo Bluetooth is infuriating.

The Google Android platform has wedged open the door for new applications. We just would have preferred a more aesthetically pleasing device

HTC Touch HD / HTC Blackstone

Despite its reasonable bulk, the HTC Touch HD is a thing of beauty, most emphasised by its cracking HD display.

One of the most vibrant displays we have cast our eyes on.

The touch-screen interface is not quite what we have come to expect.

Despite its reasonable bulk, the HTC Touch HD is a thing of beauty, most emphasised by its cracking HD display. However, the experience as a whole is disjointed with both the touch-screen and internet experience proving temperamental

Sony Ericsson W902

The first Sony Ericsson Walkman phone to boast a five-megapixel camera.

The first Sony Ericsson Walkman phone to boast a five-megapixel camera.

Although an 8GB memory card is included, for a music phone to only offer 25MB of internal memory is disappointing.

A more than competent handset that is sure to sell well. We just can't help but feel that Sony Ericsson needs to freshen things up a little

Samsung Pixon M8800

3G UMTS/HSPA mobile broadband technology continues its momentum

A fabulously well-endowed device that also happens to be a record-breaking slim touch-screen with an eight-megapixel camera.

The stitching in panorama mode was a little jagged and face detection only works on close-ups.

A touch-screen phone that promises loads and delivers in spades

Motorola Motozine ZN5

Carma Developers deployed Trellia's solution to enable seamless

Kodak Gallery is a great and easy way of storing all your photos and ordering prints.

The inclusion of Wi-Fi doesn't make up for the lack of HSDPA or 3G.

The camera experience is adequate, but there's not enough going for the MOTOZINE ZN5 to make it truly memorable

HTC Sirius / HTC P6500

This large handset is not for the small-pocketed or the bling lover.

The P6500 has lots of memory, a vast screen, and a fingerprint scanner.

This large handset is not for the small-pocketed or the bling lover.

The P6500 is designed for use in business. You won't find many consumers wanting to carry this one around
