What is it: 3G slider phone with integrated Facebook, Skype and Windows Live
What we think: A remarkably inexpensive phone that focuses on doing one thing brilliantly

We like:
Integration with online services is really slick; HSPDA makes it all quick
We don't like:
Lack of flash on the camera; no 3.5mm headphone jack; design could be sexier
Also known as:
INQ1
CNET UK judgement:
The INQ 1 is a great achievement that proves good phones needn't be expensive. If you want access to Facebook, Skype and Windows Live Messenger without the size, complexity and expense of a full smart phone, this is perfect. We're disappointed it doesn't have a 3.5mm headphone jack and Wi-Fi would be great, but hopefully INQ will put them on its next phone -- along with a Qwerty keyboard
