| Review summary | The U800 looks clean and modern, is easy to use and has a good range of features. As well as supporting HSDPA for fast downloads, it has dual cameras with realistic colour reproduction. If you were hankering after a Nokia 6500 Classic, we'd seriously recommend you examine this one first 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. We aren't big fans of Sony's new tiny Memory Stick Micro, but if nothing else the K800i stylishly shows that 3G handsets have at last made it mainstream Read full review |
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 |

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
