A Well-Kept Secret!
Review of Navman PiN 570 by d_biro

Advantages: Many features, easy to use, customisable, portable, price.
Disadvantages: Volatile memory, no bluetooth, charger connection.

...to or edit them, the Navman automatically updates itself next time I connect it to my PC. It's also very easy to add software (plenty of free stuff available) for all kinds of uses. It has a microphone for dictation, and you can watch video, play games and listen to MP3s on it. The downsides are that it doesn't have that much memory, but this is fixable as the Navman as an SD card slot. The Satnav is a little fiddlier than better-known applications ...
...wrong turning! There is infra-red but no bluetooth or wi-fi, but you can pick up compatible wi-fi cards for the SD slot. I have one, and it works fine. Also the charger connector does the job but is quite flimsy so I recommend buying a cradle for it. It's worth noting that the built-in memory is volatile, which means if you leave the battery flat for too long it will wipe, so it's best to always recharge on the same day that it runs out, or keep ...

Blackberry Pearl? More of a diamond...
Review of Blackberry Pearl 8110 by mallamaloo

Advantages: Does most things it should simply and well whilst still being phone sized
Disadvantages: Viewing some attachments is virtually impossible

...I also get a blackberry instant message from a mate asking if I want to go for lunch. Nice! On the train to work I look at the emails to see what I'm going to face when I get to the office. Not much to worry about so I fire up the brickbreaker, the 'pearl' in the middle has taken some getting used to with brickbreaker but I'm starting to get some decent scores. More seriously though the 'pearl' at first is a little awkward but before long you're ...
...can get it on the blackberry as it's a word doc (pdfs I don't even bother trying because it's a nightmare with the blackberry). On the way home I catch up on a few emails, the predictive texting is ok and takes some getting used to but I'm a speed demon on it now so I can ping off a couple of emails within five mins. Sort that out and then text the wife to let her know my train time. I wouldn't say this is a smart phone, personal digital assistant ... Read review

Nokia n96
Review of Nokia N96 by Gippon

Advantages: Massive internal memory with option to expand, large 2.8" display, wi-fi support, 5 MP camera
Disadvantages: Same battery as n95, annoying camera button, no light sensor or integrated graphics chip

...sleeker than both the original Nokia n95 and the n95 8GB. This is in part due to the removal of the camera slider which was present on the n95 and it is also using the same battery as the original n95 (950MhA). This could be seen as a disadvantage considering the awful battery life of the original n95, this problem was somewhat addressed by Nokia with the release of the n95 8GB which included a higher capacity battery (1200MhA). However Nokia have ...
...in landscape mode. This time Nokia have realised this by the inclusion of a "kick stand" on the back of the phone positioned under the camera. This acts as a stand so the phone can be angled at viewing pleasure when it is placed upon a surface. The camera itself is the same from the n95 and n95 8GB and like the n95 8GB this does not contain a slider for extra protection. Nokia have now included dual LEDs for flash photography but I personally would ... Read review

The Bold and the Beautiful
Review of BlackBerry Bold 9000 by mynameisrui

Advantages: Great looking, very easy to use
Disadvantages: Poor Battery

After recently getting the Blackberry Bold I thought I'd share my thoughts about it. Traditionally a Blackberry is known for being solely aimed at the business market with one of its main selling points being the fact that you have constant email access which is of course very important for some people. They were not aimed at the consumer market in terms of looks or capabilities. However, the Blackberry Bold (BB) aims to change that. With the recent ...
...the Blackberry isn't so businessey and may have some appeal to the consumer market. The BB has been very much designed not only for practical reasons, but also in order to attract potential new customers. Gone are the brick like Blackberry's and in is the very attractive looking Blackberry Bold. Design Looking at the phone from the outside it certainly looks very good. On the front you are presented with a full QWERTY keyboard which is sized very ... Read review

Htc TyTN II
Review of HTC TyTN II by anurag440044

Advantages: Faster, incorparated gps
Disadvantages: size a little bulky

HTC TyTnII is a value for money phone. It has a special function of the qwerty keyboard, which slides underside of the phone. Allthough its a little bulky, it provides with quite good features. The HTC home plugin has been incorporated in the phone on the today screen. The phone has a special function of 3g, Video conferencing, which is absent in the TyTn. The qwerty keyboard provides easiness in typing word documents and notes. The email in this ...
...GPS in this phone is pretty accurate. The GPS can also be used on Livemaps. The Traffic Tv on this phone, lets user view realtime traffic flow in specific areas. The newly incorparated OS6 in this phone is pretty faster than regular WM6 os on any other wm powered device. ... Read review
