Are you in the market for a new Android phone? See what our expert reviewer's recommend with our editor's choice selections. These Android smartphones are a rank of the top 10 handsets based on personal selection by the PC World Australia editorial team.

Our August editor's choice list is headed by the excellent Samsung Galaxy S II, which scored a whopping 4.75/5 stars. This makes it the highest scoring Android phone currently available on the market. Its followed closely by HTC's flagship Sensation, which is exclusively sold through Telstra, and the popular HTC Desire HD, which is available at Vodafone.

HTC Desire S

The HTC Desire S is an evolutionary rather than revolutionary upgrade over the original Desire. It remains an excellent smartphone, but it hits the market at a time when competition is fiercer than ever. We think it's a good all-rounder at a competitive price, but the Desire S does little to stand out amongst the crowd.
