Techradar reviews the BenQ E72 and writes, “BenQ isn’t one of the big hitters in the mobile phone market and the E72 won’t do anything to change that perception. It’s a ho-hum mobile handset, solidly-built, but with nothing slick or eye-catching about it. In fact, the E72 is easily eclipsed by entry-level models offered [...]

Trusted Reviews does a first look review of the Nokia N96 and writes, “The N96 feels a bit like a missed opportunity for Nokia.

CNET UK reviews the Nokia N78 and writes, “The N78 is a mixed bag. It packs more features than most phones, but the camera is underwhelming and the navigation key is fiddly to use. It’s by no means a terrible phone, but it’s not a great one either…

CNET UK reviews the Nokia E71 and writes, “Most business phones leave you yearning for something a little more refined, something that will get the job done but also work well as a phone for home. The Nokia E71 is the business phone we’ve all been waiting for…

NetWorkWorld reviews the Samsung Instinct and writes, “t’s hard not to immediately start comparing the Instinct features with the iPhone, but there are some differences that make the Instinct stand out. First and foremost, the phone can access Sprint’s EV-DO Rev. A network, which offers faster download speeds than the original EDGE-based iPhone, and [...]

CNET UK reviews the Toshiba Portegé and writes, “With the Portege G810, Toshiba is trying to coax smart phone users to go without a trusty stylus. Instead, it wants them to rely on its touch interface that it’s grafted on top of G810’s Windows Mobile OS. It’s a similar tactic to that adopted by [...]

PC World reviews the Samsung Instinct and writes, “I have a couple of additional observations. First, opening the back of the phone to switch batteries was very difficult. The rubbery plastic back of my unit did not want to slide off no matter how hard I tried to follow the manual’s instructions and push [...]

PC Pro reviews the Nokia E71 and writes, “Are these weaknesses enough to put us off the E71? Absolutely not. Few people buy a phone like this for its photo-taking or music-playing abilities, and the proprietary connectors - while annoying - are issues most can live with…

The Sydney Morning Herald reviews the Apple iPhone 3G and writes, “The phone is not without its flaws. It is not - repeat, not - perfect. And Apple has chosen to omit features which are standard in many other less high falutin’ phones…Despite conceding its technical advantage and failing to address some avoidable deficiencies, [...]

PC Pro reviews the HTC Touch Diamond and writes, “Back when we reviewed the HTC Touch, we had one key message to say to HTC: drop Windows Mobile so far back into the background that people hardly need to use it.

ZDNet reviews the Samsung i617 (Samsung BlackJack II) and writes, “..I was recently sent a Samsung Blackjack II (SGH-i617) running Windows Mobile 6.1 to evaluate for a bit and have to say the device is very impressive and it is great to see a manufacturer still making non-touch screen devices. I know the device [...]

PC Pro reviews the Apple iPhone 3G and writes, “The iPhone 3G is an evolution rather than a new species, beyond adding 3G and GPS support, it is the original phone with a new skin and poor battery life…The first thing that will strike you with the iPhone 3G is that it is looks [...]

PC Mag reviews the Palm Centro and writes, “The Centro exemplifies the classic case of a company that figured out how to buy extra time using its existing, aging product line. But that’s not a sustainable strategy in the long term. Palm OS is actually losing capabilities; for example, its Java license expired in [...]

Mad 4 Mobile Phones reviews the Toshiba Portegé G810 and writes, “Toshiba has also included a number of entertainment features.

PDAStreet reviews the HP iPAQ 110 Classic and writes, ” Getting in touch with our PDA past was fun, and showed us how unproductive many smartphones are for anything except messaging.

Australian PC Authority does a first look review of the Apple iPhone 3G and writes, “The iPhone 3G is truly an impressive device, although those familiar with its predecessor will lament the lack of features such as MMS, cut and paste and tethering (using the phone as a wireless modem for a notebook) - [...]

CrunchGear reviews the Nokia N78 and writes, “Overall the N78 is more of the same. It’s a beautiful phone and folks who enjoy T9 typing and Symbian’s very specific learning curve will probably enjoy this phone.

Australian PC Authority does a first look review of the i-mate Ultimate 9502 and writes, “The i-mate Ultimate 9502 qualifies as a worthy successor to the 8502 and adds to an expanding i-mate range, that continues to impress. There are still a few quirks to be ironed out to achieve our highest rating, hopefully [...]

MobileTechReview has a review of the Nokia E66 and writes, “Though it’s a business phone, the Nokia E66 is slim, stylish and packed with multimedia features.

PC Mag reviews the HTC Touch and writes, “There’s nothing else quite like the Touch in Alltel’s lineup, at least in terms of its combination of price, power, and a large touch screen. The BlackBerry Pearl is also affordable, but it isn’t Windows Mobile. If you’re looking for WM power on Alltel, you can [...]

Geek reviews the Samsung Instinct and writes, “In summary, Sprint and Samsung did a great job with the Instinct.

MobileTechReview has a review of the Toshiba Portegé G810 and writes, “Toshiba doesn’t make many Windows Mobile phones (they were once a large player in the Pocket PC PDA market), but when they do, they go for cutting-edge features and trendy elements. I doubt the touch screen will become unfashionable any time soon, so [...]

All About Symbian reviews the Nokia 6220 Classic and writes, “Teething troubles apart, there’s very little wrong with the Nokia 6220 Classic. The small 2.2″ screen won’t be to everyone’s taste but it’s still good enough for someone wanting a traditional ‘candy bar’ phone. The numeric keys could do with more physical differentiation (come [...]

MobileTechReview has a review of the T-Mobile SideKick LX and writes, “The Sidekick LX is the flagship device in the Sidekick family and is by far the best Sidekick device we’ve seen.

Mail Online reviews the Apple iPhone 3G and writes, “Web browsing is excellent, although annoyingly we found the BBC’s iPlayer site did not work.

MobileBurn does a hands on review of the Nokia E71 and writes, “The E71 has a great feature set that includes not only HSDPA but also WiFi for data. A 3.2 megapixel autofocus camera is also on board, something of a rare thing in what is decidedly a business device. The E71 uses Nokia’s [...]

Brighthand reviews the Apple iPhone and writes, “Many people use their phone for different tasks. As for me, when I’m not home, most of the time I’m on the Internet or texting. 3G is widespread where I live, so it’s worth it…If you live in a 3G-less area, maybe soon they will offer 3G, [...]

MobileBurn reviews the HTC Touch and writes, “For me, the Verizon XV6900 addresses these problems. I rarely need the stylus at all in typical use.

Gizmodo reviews the Apple iPhone and writes, “This is really not a revolutionary phone. It’s more like the iPhone we wished Apple made last year.

MobileBurn does a hands on review the Palm Treo 800w and writes, “Sprint and Palm are pushing the Treo 800w as a business device, and as such they each have created dedicated support teams to deal with Treo 800w users. Sprint is offering enterprise level support services on an ala carte basis, so companies [...]

CTV reviews the Apple iPhone 3G and writes, “There are several new cellphones that mimic some of the iPhone 3G’s features; its touchscreen, 3G data speeds, and ability to play videos, but Apple’s handset is the only one that uses them with real purpose.

ZDNet reviews the Palm Treo 800w and writes, “I am quite pleased to see Palm finally release a device that has integrated WiFi and GPS and think it will probably do well since there are lots of enterprise customers who like to use Palm’s Windows Mobile devices.

InfoSync reviews the Apple iPhone and writes, “With its faster networking, GPS for location-based services and, best of all, the App Store, Apple takes a significant step forward with the iPhone 3G as a consumer-centric device.

Digital Trends reviews the Samsung Instinct and writes, “The Sprint Instinct from Samsung is one of the hottest new phones on the market, thanks to its slim profile, vibrating touchscreen, and standard headphone jack.

Trusted Reviews has a review of the Orange SPV E610 and writes, “As if to prove me wrong, the Orange SPV-E610 managed to get the keyboard right, then undermine that good work with a weak hardware offering and lacklustre software.

CNET UK reviews the Toshiba Portege G910 and writes, “The first thing you’ll notice about the Toshiba Portege G910 is its design: it bears a striking resemblance to a cigarette lighter case and its faux leather finish will not look out of place at the local golf club. Hidden beneath the exterior lies a [...]

PC Pro reviews the Toshiba Portege G710 and writes, “Unlike the BlackBerry, you won’t find the Portégé discounted to zero on an 18-month call plan.

CNET Australia reviews the Palm Centro and writes, “Depending on your view of design aesthetics, the Palm Centro is either unerringly cute or bares too much of a resemblance to a bar of soap.

LetsGoMobile reviews the Samsung G810 and writes, “The Samsung G810 is a multifunctional mobile phone with a business-like appearance.

CNET reviews the Nokia E71 and writes, ” It may be that the Nokia E series sometimes suffers from Jan Brady syndrome, as it gets overshadowed by a flashier member of its family–the Nokia N series (aka Marcia Brady).

CNET Australia reviews the HP iPAQ 312 and writes, “In the end, we were left with very mixed feelings about HP’s stab at the portable GPS market.
