O2 Xda Orbit 2 review
The O2 Xda Orbit 2 may seem like business as usual, but it's a smart phone with oomph. Featuring HSDPA, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, you get a plethora of connectivity options to keep in touch with the world. Throw in GPS for good measure, and you won't be lost either Read more

LG Optimus One P500 review
The LG Optimus One P500 smart phone packs plenty of punch, offering all the joys of Android 2.2 at a rock-bottom price. We just wish LG's tweaks to Android didn't look so clumsy. Read more

Vodafone 845 Joy review
If you want an Android smart phone but are strapped for cash, the 845 could fit the bill. Its small, low-resolution screen means it doesn't offer the best Web-browsing experience, but it runs the latest version of Android, 2.1, and offers a cute, compact design Read more

Acer Tempo DX900 review
If you want a Windows Mobile smart phone with support for dual SIM cards, the Acer Tempo DX900 is currently the only option available in the UK. A competent handset, it does a good job of handling two SIMs, and its touchscreen is fairly responsive, but its design won't inspire envy Read more
