Typical price: £100
What is it: A superb-looking slider phone that is seamlessly designed and features a heat-sensitive glowing red touchpad
What we think: We're in love with the look of it, but the touchpad can be awkward to use and it's a shame about the lack of expandable memory

| Review summary | The LG Chocolate phone is the best-looking phone we have seen this year. With a seamless casing and glowing red touchpad, this phone took everyone by surprise. It definitely has that wow factor at first, but after using it for a couple of weeks you may realise that not everything is perfect. The touchpad looks great but doesn't always respond and the lack of external memory means this won't replace your iPod nano 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 |
