What is it: Slim tri-band phone with 1.3-megapixel camera, Bluetooth and MP3 player
What we think: It might look like a calculator, but when it's this small who cares? The P300 really is a pocketable mobile phone

We like:
The slim form factor; bright screen; leather case with secondary battery; 1.3-megapixel camera
We don't like:
Rearrangement of keys on the keypad
CNET UK judgement:
The P300 is an incredible achievement considering how large the first mobile phones were. It might only have a 1.3-megapixel camera and 80MB of internal memory, but with a phone this size it's incredible that it even makes phone calls, let alone take pictures that you can Bluetooth to your friends. We were impressed by the battery life and, aside from the rearranged keypad, we thought the P300 was very good
