Laptopmag reviews the Motorola MOTO Q and says: “Just like Verizon Wireless’ silver and black versions, Sprint’s MOTO Q measures a very slim 0.5 inches thin and weighs a mere 4.1 ounces, but it sports a dark-gray color scheme. We prefer Verizon’s black MOTO Q, which has more of a rubberized feel, but this device is […]
Mobileburn reviews the Samsung Upstage for Sprint and says: “From a purely aesthetic standpoint, the UpStage is a beautiful thing. It is compact, at only 104mm x 44mm x 11mm (4.1″ x 1.7″ x .4″) in size, and feels as solid as a rock in terms of construction. This, of course, in spite of its […]
Mobileburn’s review of the LG Fusic says: “The LG Fusic - (LX550), housed in a clamshell type design, has very smooth and clean-looking lines reminiscent of many Asian handsets.

GsmArena reviews the Nokia 5300 XpressMusic and says: ”At first glance Nokia 5300 failed to impress us with its design and the materials used for its body. In fact we think that the white color and matt plastic with rubber elements make it look cheap. It’s not among the slimmest devices either.
But armed with the highly […]
PCMag reviews the Nokia 6133 and says: “The Nokia 6133 practically glows with a soft European elegance. It’s made from velvety black soft-touch plastic with chrome-like, silvery interior and accents.

LaptopMag has a review of the Samsung t309 and says: “With its antenna-free design and two-tone black-and-charcoal body, the three-ounce t309 makes a good first impression. Open this clamshell and you’re greeted with a nicely spaced dialpad and a 65,000-color display that’s fairly easy to read. The screen doubles as a viewfinder for the reasonably sharp […]

PCMag reviews the Verizon CDM-8945 and says: “The underpowered Verizon Wireless 8945 makes clear calls, but its features don’t measure up well against its competition’s. Given its hefty price, we can’t recommend this phone. The 4-ounce 8945 is moderately handsome, looking like a 3.5 by 1.9 by 0.9-inch slab of obsidian. The plastic case feels […]
Laptopmag reviews the Sanyo SCP-2400 and says: “Targeted toward parents concerned about their children’s safety—not to mention shockingly high phone bills—the Sanyo SCP-2400 offers a lot of versatility for a very reasonable price.

Mobileburn reviews the Motorola SLVR L7 and says: “Motorola’s SLVR L7 is a very thin phone, even if it is not the thinnest available. It measures 114mm x 49mm x 12mm (4.5″ x 1.9″ x .5″) in size, and slips perfectly in just about any pocket or purse. In spite of its thinness, the SLVR […]
