This ultra-mobile PC has cool features, such as easy Web access and online calling, and is a snap to use, but it only works with certain handsets.

Before embarking on a series of reviews of the family of electronics devices known as ultra-mobile PCs, it's worth noting that there's much debate over exactly what an ultra-mobile PC is. Nearly every device claiming to belong to the category is ...

While it has a few flaws, this smartphone offers versatility, plus impressive call and photo quality.

With a product name like BlackJack, a reviewer is tempted to make all sorts of gambling references. But the Samsung BlackJack phone turns out to be no gamble at all. If you are in the market for a smartphone (and not interested in saving your pennies...

Bang & Olufsen's Serene cell phone is a head-turner, but pared-down has its limits. At this price, you might want more than ear candy.

Remember those early days when the cell phone was the ultimate status symbol? It was the size of a brick, and only doctors and high-powered executives carried one. Today more than 50 million people have purchased Motorola's hit Razr phone alone, and ...

A trackball, a camera, and an MP3 player are among the handy additions that make this Research In Motion's best BlackBerry yet.

I can't count how many times I told Jim Balsillie, one of the two chief executives of Research In Motion (RIMM), that his company's popular BlackBerry wireless calling and paging device was missing one crucial feature: a camera. The BlackBerry has ...

The handset giant's latest smartphone entry is a decent device, but its multimedia and e-mail features can't justify a $600 price tag.

A year ago, Nokia (NOK) made clear its intention to own the fast-growing smartphone space by introducing its new N series. I recently took the head-turning N91 on a test run and found it a good first attempt, but at $600 it's too pricey to meet the ...

The successor to the RAZR sports snazzy looks and top-notch audio but has some drawbacks in the video department.

Like its N-series cousins, the Nokia N80 is billed as an all-around device for an increasingly media-centric world. With a 3-megapixel digital camera, it certainly delivers on that front, but I found the device to be a tad too feature-packed—with...

This multifeatured phone puts form too far above function; even at the lower price, this device left me longing for my BlackBerry.

People at the Monaco Media Forum watched as I pulled the phone out of my pocket, and at least five of them had the very same reaction. "Nice form factor," they said. That's geek talk for "great design." The sleek new Dash, from Deutsche...

It lacks reliable WiFi connectivity and picture or video taking. For the price, this multifunctional mobile phone should offer more than great media playback.

On any given day I carry around a cell phone, wallet, iPod, and keys. With only so much pant-pocket room, I'm pretty choosy about anything I'll lug around in addition to these essentials. I am considering adding a device that will help me stay ...
