Samsung UltraB S7220

Samsung Ultra B S7220 Review

By PhoneArena Team

The Samsung Ultra B S7220 is the successor of the Soulb and comes in a classic candy-bar form factor. At the same time, it has the DNA blueprint of the UltraTOUCH. Its less hefty price ......

Stylish design, Awesome screen, 5-megapixel camera, Snappy interface

Poor call sound quality

slider before jumping on board. It also comes in pretty stylish, but features a larger, 2.6-inch screen

Sony Ericsson C702

Sony Ericsson C702 Review

By PhoneArena Team

A walk on the beach or up a mountain can fall out to be abundant with such occasions, the thing is normal cell phones don´t seem to take dust or water splashes all too well. That is why ......

Splash and dust resistant, Built-in GPS receiver and excellent navigation software

Annoying buttons, Mediocre in-call quality, Camera quality is OK, nothing more

, while you voice is overly sharp and (intrusively) strong. All told, in-call quality is second rate at best

Sony Ericsson W395

Sony Ericsson W395 Review

By PhoneArena Team

The Sony Ericsson W395 won´t take you by surprise in terms of innate intelligence, but will certainly manage to have you immersed in waves of gracefully blending sounds. It´s a perfect ......

Attractive design, Ease of use, Awesome sound quality

Uncomfortable keypad, Sound through the stereo speakers could and should have been louder

Despite the fact the phone doesn´t sport the full range of all the rage functions and this shows with its price, the Sony Ericsson W395 Walkman handset leaves us greatly pleased. In contrast to the all-in-one devices that have been pretty popular ...

HTC Touch Diamond 2

HTC Touch Diamond2 Review

By PhoneArena Team

Тhe HTC Touch Diamond2 comes out to lend some more color to the otherwise nice, but aging model that was released last year. Hitting the shelves less than a year after its predecessor ......

Comfy and responsive interface, Awesome in-call quality, Decent outdoor picture quality

The display is hardly legible in the sun, Mediocre multimedia capabilities, Accelerometer is not perfect

Unlike its predecessor, even early units of the HTC Touch Diamond2 are fast and promptly responding. Apparently, the increased amount of system memory proves beneficial to the good-looking smart phone. The screen is also very sensitive and reacts to ...

Nokia E75

Nokia E75 Review

By PhoneArena Team

We are bringing the Nokia E75 to your attention. One of the latest business series add-ons of the Finnish manufacturer was officially announced at the MWC 2009. It´s the current flagship model in ......

Extremely well performing QWERTY keyboard, Thinner than phones featuring similar design, Decent email improvements thanks to Nokia Messaging, Screen quality is good and things are discernible even in direct sunlight

Bad in-call sound quality, Rather hefty

After running all tests and hearing of every witness, the plenary session at PhoneArena adjourned and called a closed meeting to order. After a heavy, 3-day-long email writing session, it finally reached an agreement on the verdict. Everybody, stand ...

Samsung i8910 Omnia HD

Samsung OMNIA HD i8910 Review

By PhoneArena Team

After we came up with an exhaustive preview, it´s about time we got down to a thorough look at one of the most thrilling cell phones on the market as of now. Let us (again) introduce ......

Huge AMOLED display delivering good image quality, HD video playback and capture and very good snapshot quality, Robust battery that lasts, Quality sound through a headphones and built-in loudspeaker, Slim form factor

Quality of sound during talk is below par, Image details are hardly discernible in bright light, Back panel flips open way too easily, Surface that loves fingerprints, Email settings are manually entered even when it comes to popular providers

Well, here we are at the grand finale of our review on one of the most exciting cell phones as of now. The Samsung´s monster, the OMNIA HD i8910. We took a scrutinizing look at it, we used it to listen to music, talk, take pictures, capture and ...

LG Arena KM900

LG ARENA KM900 Review

By PhoneArena Team

An exhaustive review on one of the most intriguing cell phones of 2009, LG ARENA KM900! The new interface of the company, S-CLASS 3D also makes its first ......

S-CLASS 3D interface rocks, High sound quality during talks, Good internet browser capabilities (it´s not Safari, but still…), Far from looking luxurious, the phone looks great

Plays DivX и Xvid, but just at 320 pixel resolution, Snapshot quality is not so good, Keypad is good, but rather small and typing in with both hands feels uncomfortable

The sound quality of LG ARENA KM900 is really good both ways

Acer DX900

Acer DX900 Review

By PhoneArena Team

Do you find the opportunity of putting two SIM cards into a single cell phone running Windows Mobile appealing? Well, let´s take a look at how Acer has measured up to the task with the DX900. …...

Allows use of two SIM cards at the same time, Top notch quality of sound during talks

Bulky and unattractive, Sluggish interface, Weak multimedia capabilities, Dialing numbers through the second SIM cannot be done via the Contacts menu

Do you really need a dual-SIM card phone and what are you willing to pay to get one? It´s not all about money here. Carrying the Acer DX900 around in your pocket will certainly fail to make you happy, but that´s an innate feature that most Windows ...

Samsung S8300 Ultra Touch

Samsung UltraTOUCH S8300 Review

By PhoneArena Team

Being an Ultra series phone, Samsung UltraTOUCH S8300 brings along many of the advantages of other, more narrowly specialized devices in a nice and good-looking body, making it ......

Fashionable appearance, Downloadable widgets, Fast 8-megapixel camera

Lagging interface, Unhandy sliding mechanism, Very poor sound quality of calls

In our view, being a phone is pretty easy these days, especially if you pack a lot of features. This way, stuff like bad voice quality or crackling loudspeaker often gets more easily accepted. However, there is no question of give-and-take in our ...
