Samsung Soul

Giving machine souls isn’t a very good idea- just look at all the hoo-ha with replicants in Blade Runner. Nobody wants a toaster with depression or a TV that’s afraid of horror. Thankfully, Samsung’s latest ultra edition handset isn’t capable of self awareness. The HSDPA-packing, 5MP- camera-toting slider is only 12.9mm thin and keeps its … Continue reading

Sony Ericsson W890i

The Sony Ericsson W890i has finally toppled by…..its younger brother, the W890i. It’s every bit as slim line as its predecessor but opts for a far usable keypad than the minute Lozenge buttons of the W890i. There’s HSDPA for snappy downloading and a 3.2 MP camera. Photos are bright, if a little shabby on close … Continue reading

Nokia E51

When the E51came out we were very impressed. Strong on paper specifications and a rugged phone that was sleek and stylish. The build quality of this phone is great, and the phone itself has been well designed. This thin, stainless steel E51 has a 2-inch display (240 x 320 pixels) with a good depth of 16.7 … Continue reading

HTC Touch

The first to utilize the touch Flo concept that Apple used for the iPhone and the iPod Touch and quite frankly it wasn’t as well implemented as we’d liked. Imitation is the best form of flattery, but only if it’s well executed. Needless to say without any sort of keypad, and Touch Flo not working … Continue reading

Nokia E61i

Nokia’s E61 and E62 belong to a family of phones spawned by Nokia’s obsession with sumo wrestler or some other monolithic object. The E61 suffixed with an “i” for a camera, is a bulky device that’s quite well built, and features a well laid out, and spacious QWERTY keypad, that was slightly improved ergonomically over … Continue reading

LG KS20

The LG KS20 borrows deeply from LG’s desire to make hot devices for the young, urban crowd. Unfortunately, too much of a good things kill as the proverb goes, and the chrome down the sides of a shiny black exterior may be viewed as garish or tasteful- depending of course on your aesthetic sense. While the … Continue reading

HTC P3470

HTCs P3470 is a PDA phone based around a Windows Mobile (WM) 6.0 Pro OS. It’s rather plain to look at and will garner no beauty accolades. Although built quality is good, nothing is inspiring. The lack of a QWERTY and any form of number pad will ensure that serious PDA users will look elsewhere. … Continue reading

Sony Ericsson K850i

The K850i targets users desiring a good camera phone-exactly what their K850i achieved some three years back. This is a device that will strike you with  its sheer build quality-its like a little rock, and feels exceptionally solid in hand. The color scheme is cool-shiny black with dark green stripes down the sides and on the joy-pad-and … Continue reading

Samsung U900

Samsung makes excellent sliders, Definitely true, if the U900 is any indication. Besides being very well built , slim and featuring a brushed metal body, the U900 has a lovely screen. It’s compact too, and very much for the college goer looking for something powerful and chic. The call accept/reject button are large, you could … Continue reading

Nokia N82

For those who don’t have the money to buy the N95 8GB, or want something more compact the N82 will appeal. For one it’s solidly built, although the keypad is very cramped and will take some getting used to, even if you happen to have long nails. Features wise it’s identical to its costlier sibling, but … Continue reading
