Typical price: £230
What is it: Tactile and stylish handset with average features, including a VGA camera
What we think: Beautifully designed and small enough for tiny pockets, but to meet the design brief some features have been compromised

| Review summary | The Pebl is all about looks, not features. Motorola has made some sacrifices to get the Pebl's appearance just right -- the outer screen is monochrome, there's no ugly (but useful) jack for connecting wired headphones, and the side buttons have no icons denoting their functions. You'd go for the Pebl because of its style, not its substance Read full review |
It may not be the most advanced handset in the world and doesn't have the longest battery life, but Nokia 6500 Classic's drop-dead gorgeous design, ease of use and good range of features make it a winner Read full review |
While this isn't the most advanced handset out there, it has a strong casing, a decent all-round feature set and an elegant, straightforward design. This is Nokia at its best Read full review |
LG has learnt from its mistakes and come up with a phone that not only looks good but works well. While some of the features are gimmicky, we think it gets the balance right and hope to see more phones like this in the future Read full review |

Clicking touchscreen may be useful for clumsy people, but ditching the Qwerty keyboard has its drawbacks
INQ Mini 3G
Sluggish at times, and not the easiest phone to use, but it offers a great range of features at a low price
BlackBerry Bold 9700
Has everything that makes the BlackBerry format great, but other smart phones offer more innovation
