| Review summary | The NEC 338 is a low-cost 3G phone with a minimal range of features. It suffers from a poor camera for video calling, no Bluetooth, lack of on-board memory and no memory expansion options. 3G browsing is good, though Read full review |
Sony Ericsson has always produced good camera phones but the C905 outdoes them all. The high resolution camera with xenon flash produces sharp shots even in low light and we were impressed by all the extras, such as GPS and Wi-Fi. If you're looking for a serious camera phone that could replace your camera, this is it Read full review |
For a relatively small and lightweight 3G phone the Sony Ericsson K800i is positively dripping with features and the headline 3.2-megapixel camera isn't the only good thing about it.

The K750i is a great mix of good hardware and software features. It's small in size, sleek in design and has some of the best features we've seen in a handset. The standout is the camera, which is both easy to use and well specified. We could see ourselves getting standard prints from this phone -– something we've never wanted to try before Read full review |

Samsung Pixon
Its high-end camera takes excellent photos, but the Pixon's touchscreen is less impressive
