Typical price: £340
What is it: Multifunction 3G smart phone
What we think: An interesting smart phone that's packed with great features, but it's not as easy to use as rival handsets

CNET.co.uk judgement:
The P1i is certainly not short on features. It has brilliant connectivity, a good range of onboard office tools and some impressive extras like its business card scanner software. The clunky user interface and weird keyboard layout, however, make it more difficult to use than competing smart phones
