Samsung Gravity SGH-T459

The Samsung Gravity is attractively small and yet still contains a variety of connectivity options. It's sold by T-Mobile and is available for free with a $149.99 Web-only discount and a $50 mail-in rebate.

Samsung Saga

We were happy to see that the touch pad makes one-handed operation easy, whether you're opening applications or typing out e-mail. The home screen offers a tabbed interface that lets you quickly change connection options, open favorite applications, ...

The Fuze is fairly thick (4.02 x 2.01 x 0.71-inches) and weighty (5.82 ounces) for a small phone. The display measures 2.8-inches and 480 by 640 pixels

Motorola ROKR E8

Motorola Rokr E8

By Gerry Blackwell

We still don't like the interface, but the E8, a quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE unit, does deliver excellent music playback from a sleek, multi-purpose phone, which is what it claims to do.

Web browsing is constrained by both the tiny screen and slower EDGE connectivity. The camera works - but only if you don't mind grainy, soft-focus shots.

BlackBerry Storm / Thunder / 9500

We can see how it was meant to appeal to people new to touch screens who might not be comfortable with them, but using it is no pleasure. Making that little extra press is tiring, especially when you're composing e-mail.

BlackBerry Pearl FLIP 8220

BlackBerry Pearl Flip

By Amy Mayer

We found the Pearl Flip to be smooth and sturdy when closed. When open, the smartphone offered up a display with terrific graphics and a keypad with all the same keys as a standard Pearl, but in bigger sizes. The larger size and the smoother face of ...

The left-side convenience key comes set to Voice Dialing, which may not be so convenient if you're not a frequent user of it, and because it wants input from you immediately upon launch, it takes a few seconds to shut down. The other convenience key ...

BlackBerry Pearl 8120

T-Mobile BlackBerry Pearl 8120

By Naomi Graychase

Released earlier this year, the BlackBerry Pearl 8120 from T-Mobile is one of the most Wi-Fi-friendly mobile phones currently available to consumers. Along with integrated 802.11g Wi-Fi, it works with T-Mobile's Unlimited HotSpot Calling plan (a new ...

The compact smartphone also has a decent Web browser and a 2-megapixel camera with video recording capabilities, although the quality of the video we recorded was mediocre.

HTC Diamond 100 / HTC Touch Diamond P3700 / O2 Diamond / T-Mobile MDA Compact IV

HTC Touch Diamond

By Troy Dreier

We like the Touch Diamond much more than the HTC Touch, the company's first touch phone, and the improvements are everywhere. To start with, the Diamond is smaller, measuring 4.0 x 2.0 x0.6 inches, and easy to carry. The front is glossy black while ...

The Diamond has several surprising features inside, including GPS navigation (the first use is free), streaming subscription TV and radio (which loaded quickly and played smoothly over Sprint's EV-DO Rev. A network), the Opera browser, and an ...

HTC G1 with Google (Google Phone)

The result is that you get a device with a touch screen that superficially resembles what Apple brings to the iPhone. However, the G1 is also very different from the iPhone. Like the iPhone, you can touch icons on the screen to make things happen, ...

Using the G1 seems to be a case of an immature device that tries to be too many things to too many people
