Accidentally drilled through your power lines? Good job you've got BT's rugged phone torch in your pocket to phone a friend…

Wonderfully ergonomic design. Built to withstand the elements - except perhaps fire

No answer machine and no SIM reader. The screen is unprotected

Philips has fashioned another attractive glossy black DECT phone - but are its claims of aural hi-def fair?

Neat design. Good call quality. 30 mins of message space

Smudgy colour screen. Poor ringtones

It's brightly-coloured, compact and stores a lot of numbers ' will BT's Aqua be your wet dream or just a washout?

Dinky. Strong call quality. Decent range

Cheap-looking. Handset is bulky in the hand

Handset discomfort

Stylish. Sim card reader and writer. Handles text messages

Not cheap. Preposterous convex keypad. Monochrome screen
