Nokia N97

RRP: $1129.00

Although the Nokia N97 dwarfs the iPhone in terms of features, the software doesn't match the standard set by Apple. The N97's flip-up design, keyboard and massive storage capacity are fantastic features, but it needs software upgrades and further development of the Ovi Store to truly become an iPhone challenger. As it stands, it has great potential but feels somewhat incomplete.

Apple iPhone 3G S

RRP: $1040.00

Apple’s iPhone 3GS is the best iPhone yet, but we aren’t convinced iPhone 3G owners will find it a worthwhile upgrade, especially considering the free 3.0 software update added plenty of extra features. For potential new iPhone owners, though, the extra speed, increased memory and improved features make the iPhone 3GS an excellent smartphone.

HTC Touch Pro 2

RRP: TBA

HTC's Touch Pro 2 mobile phone is more responsive and easier to use than its predecessor, but the extra weight and bulk won’t be appreciated by all. A fantastic display, a well-designed keyboard and an excellent user interface may be enough to balance the ledger.

HTC Touch Diamond 2

RRP: TBA

HTC's Touch Diamond 2 is a far better smartphone than its predecessor. The lack of a 3.5mm headphone jack is annoying, but a larger display, a professional design and a much improved user interface make this one of the best Windows Mobile smartphones we've reviewed.

Hardware flaws aside, the Palm Pre makes a solid impression. Its eye-catching design and smooth operation make this smartphone the most exciting device we've seen in a while.

HTC Magic

RRP: TBA

HTC's Magic, available on 3 Mobile, has corrected many faults of the previous Dream, making it an excellent smartphone on the whole. The lack of a 3.5mm headphone jack is disappointing and the Android Market is still in its infancy with no paid apps available, but the Android OS has massive potential.

HTC Magic with Google

RRP: TBA

HTC's Magic with Google, exclusive to Vodafone, has corrected many faults of the previous Dream, making it an excellent smartphone on the whole. The lack of a 3.5mm headphone jack is disappointing and the Android Market is still in its infancy, with no paid apps available, but the Android OS has massive potential.

Motorola MOTOSURF A3100

RRP: $849.00

Motorola's MOTOSURF A3100 is one of the most pleasant to use Windows Mobile devices we've tested. The screen is mediocre when compared to other phones and text entry will frustrate, but the TelstraOne Experience and Moto Homescreen skins make this smartphone intuitive to use.

Nokia E75

RRP: $979.00

Nokia's E75 builds on the style of previous E Series smartphones, and its QWERTY keyboard is excellent. If you're looking for a smartphone packed full of features that has a smart design, then the Nokia E75 will definitely impress.

LG Arena (KM900)

RRP: $799.00

LG definitely deserves some credit for thinking outside the box. The LG Arena offers a wealth of features, but although the new user interface certainly looks fantastic, it sometimes feels sluggish and this affects the user experience.

RIM BlackBerry Curve 8900

RRP: $929.00

Despite lacking 3G, the BlackBerry Curve 8900 is still an excellent smartphone, and it boasts an outstanding display. The stylish and compact design makes it the best looking BlackBerry yet, without compromising the end user experience.

Thuraya SG-2520

RRP: $1650.00

The Thuraya SG-2520 provides a range of features not normally found in satellite phones, like a built-in camera and MP3 playback, in small and light package. Call quality and reception are relatively good, but the lack of alternative satellites results in a narrow angle of coverage.

NV Mobile Sports Pro Mini Watch Phone

RRP: $549.00

Although we respect the NV Mobile Sports Pro Mini Watch Phone for daring to be different, the low call quality and the difficulty involved in data entry mean that this is a hard device to recommend.

HP iPAQ Voice Messenger

RRP: $649.00

HP's iPAQ Voice Messenger smartphone wins points for its looks, but it's not all good news. The optical controller is mediocre and the keypad is flat, making an otherwise competent handset frustrating to use.

Nokia E63

RRP: $399.00

The Nokia E63 is a cut-price version of the E71. It lacks HSDPA-connectivity and built-in GPS but retains much of the Nokia E71's design, including a full QWERTY keyboard. If you're on a budget and can live without super-fast mobile Internet speeds then it is definitely worth a look.
