- — 08 March, 2011 09:00
If 2010 was a landmark year for Google's Android operating system in Australia, then 2011 is set to be the year it truly explodes. Offering a number of benefits over Apple's iPhone including an open applications market, a customisable user interface and full multitasking, the Android smartphone platform continues to go from strength to strength.
There are now a wealth of Android smartphones on the market in Australia from a wide range of manufacturers including HTC, Samsung, Motorola, Sony Ericsson and LG. For those who want an alternative to the iPhone, we've rounded up the best Android smartphones currently available in Australia.
11 / 22
The Motorola Atrix doesn't stray too far from the norm once you look past its dual-core processor and fingerprint reader, but it is a slick, super-fast Android phone with good battery life. Anyone after a new Android phone with a big screen should definitely consider the Atrix; we just hope Motorola gives Atrix users the latest Android updates.

Tarun Khanna's poor reception comments are irksome but it does make a good point. It is very difficult to find a review on a mobile phone that includes a comment on it's reception capability. In Australia, for many consumers, it is the number one criteria for a smartphone so one would expect an Australian reviewer would know this and include it in their review.
