Nokia N97 review
Mobile phones

The keyboard is disappointing, and the Symbian OS feels outdated compared with those of more intuitive Android and Apple phones.

Palm Pre review
Mobile phones

The Pre is interesting but flawed: it has some amazing features but is let down by a slow processor, poor battery life and software quirks.

HTC Hero review
Mobile phones

The new Hero is fast, with a good screen and camera, and Android's unrestrictive software is complemented by HTC's Sense apps and interface.

LG GC900 Viewty Smart review
Mobile phones

Despite the disappointing camera, the Viewty has good basic apps, plenty of storage, long battery life and a great screen

HTC Touch 2 review
Mobile phones

Small and light with a good interface and plenty of apps, but the touch control lets it down, and the screen and camera aren't the best here.

Samsung S8000 J?©t review

RIM BlackBerry Curve 8520 review
Mobile phones

The 8520 has an accurate trackpad button, good application support and is great for music, but lacks GPS and high-speed 3G.

T-Mobile Pulse review
Mobile phones

A decent screen and camera, and a more customisable version of Android, but the highlights are the pay-as-you-go tariff and reasonable price.

Epson Stylus Office B40W review
Home office Inkjet printers Printers

A simple, well-built network inkjet that performs well and is inexpensive to run. It loses out only to the better-value HP Officejet 6000.
