Top Ten: 3G Mobile Phones

1. Sony Ericsson W900i: This is the first 3G Walkman phone, and while its storage capacity can’t match the Nokia N91, its system for transferring music from PC to phone is extremely simple, playback is strong and the handset’s rotating front is effective. Bulky, but recommended. 2. Nokia N91: This is the real music-lover’s phone. It has a 4GB hard drive so you can take the phone and leave your iPod at home. Sound quality is extremely good, adding tracks is straightforward and if there’s a fault it’s that the phone is not exactly tiny. Out next month. 3. Samsung i300: This phone comes with a 3GB hard drive so you can store a lot of music or photographs on board. That’s ...

Nokia N80 3G Phone

Nokia hatched the Nseries as an elite brigade of 3G multimedia virtuosos. So elite in fact, that with the exception of the popular N70, getting your hands on these ‘multimedia computers’ has proved problematic. The N90 didn’t even get picked up officially by a network operator. Its 4GB-hard-drive-packing musical sibling, the N91, hasn’t yet hit the shops despite being unveiled just under a year ago. And the N92 TV handset won’t even make it to UK shores because we don’t yet support Digital Video Broadcast for Handheld (DVB-H) technology. Nokia has gone on record declaring that the Nseries is an exercise in chest thumping and concept building, showing just how high mobile technology can reach, but these ...
