The new pro by HTC is a true all-rounder, with multimedia and navigation just part of its ammo, and has every premise of becoming the most complete Windows-powered device to date. HTC Touch Pro is armed to the very last one of them QWERTY teeth, almost every worth having mobile phone feature on its list. So much so, that a viable alternative is hard to find on the current market.
It’s a similar phone to the Diamond in many ways. …

What really makes the Bold "beautiful" is the HUGE screen. I thought the screen on my previous Curve was great. The screen on the Bold is twice the resolution (480×320 vs… 320×240). It is absolutely amazing. Not only is it stunning for movies and photos, it makes browsing the web and simply reading emails so much easier. You can fit significantly more information on the screen. The same auto-backlighting feature found on the Curve is also on the Bold. …

The Nokia E71 phone is chrome and while it’s definitely a fingerprint magnet it looks really sharp in person. Everything is proportionate and sort of just works well together. It’s a remarkable piece of engineering ergonomically, as well. Cramming a full keyboard into a chassis this narrow is easily enough done, but making it usable is much more of a challenge.

Nokia 5310 made thousands of fans with its very announcement. Packing a 16M color QVGA …

The Shuffle gets smaller with every release. The latest is smaller than a AA battery, or about the size of a tie clip. It also comes with a stainless steel clip so it can be worn. The VoiceOver technology on the $79 device, which the Cupertino company calls the world’s smallest digital music player, also recites the names of playlists, giving users a new way to navigate their music on the screen less iPod.
The new 4-gigabyte device — which …

With the sales of netbooks expected to double (to 20 million units worldwide) in 2009, and Mac enthusiasts already shoehorning OS X onto existing netbooks, it stands to reason that Apple is paying attention.

The Storm outperforms most BlackBerrys with its crisp, innovative touch-button screen. Boasting a 3.2 megapixel auto-focus still and video camera, the Storm impresses by packing numerous features into its sleek and sturdy form-factor.
The Storm is a striking device. From the second you lay eyes on it, it’s clear that a lot of time and care went into crafting this phone. The majority of the front panel is display, a large 3.25-inch (480 x 360) touchscreen sitting just shy of …
