Best Mobile Phones Reviews | Editors' Top-rated Mobile Phones

Perfect for entry-level smart-phone users, the Nokia X3 Touch and Type is armed with both a touchscreen and button interface, as well as a drop-dead-gorgeous design. Its relatively outdated operating system won't please smart-phone veterans, though. Read more

LG Chocolate BL20 review

The LG Chocolate BL20 looks like a smooth operator, but in terms of functionality and features, it doesn't present that much of a step up from its older sibling -- the KG800. If you're shopping on a budget then this is worth considering, but there are better phones available in its class. Read more

One of the cheapest handsets we've seen so far, the Nokia 1616 is perfect for people who just want a phone for making calls and sending the odd text. Anything more complicated than that is off the agenda, but this could make an ideal gift for an elderly relative or young child. Read more

T-Mobile Vairy Touch II review

Impressive features such as upgradeable storage and a camera with video-recording capability are undermined by an unresponsive touchscreen and lack of 3G connectivity. The T-Mobile Vairy Touch II is billed as an entry-level touchscreen device, but could potentially end up putting people off button-free phones. Read more

Nokia 5230 review

A cheaper version of the 5800 XpressMusic, the Nokia 5230 is acceptable as an entry-level smart phone, but its design quirks and lack of Wi-Fi are hard to swallow. Read more

Nokia Asha 300 hands-on

The Nokia Asha 300 is shaping up to be a solid bet if you want a simple, small and cheap phone. A resistive touchscreen could make it fiddly to use though. Read more
