The N86 is another impressive Nseries mobile from Nokia to compete on the Smartphone stage. It’s a sleek, stylish and professional looking slider phone which has both great design features and an impressive array of functions.

The slider is a two way mechanism, previously seen on the Nokia N95 and N96. The screen is a decent 2.6 inch OLED which is good enough for pleasant viewing. On the back of the N86 is an active kick stand, which when opened fires up a user-defined application.

The main draw of the Nokia N86 is the very impressive 8 megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss Tessar lens. It has angle optics, autofocus, dual LED flash and geotagging facilities.

The cameras capabilities are at the high end of what the N86’s peers can compete with and, along with the Symbian OS, it’s what will make this phone a popular choice.

The Sony Ericsson C903 is at the high end of the Cyber-shot range. This cameraphone is a fun, playful looking device which comes in lacquer black, techno white or glamour red; however its looks are deceptive as under its shiny surface you discover a high powered handset with enviable features.

The C903 is first and foremost a cameraphone and comes equipped with a 5 megapixel camera with auto focus and dedicated camera keys. The resolution of its image taking is not as good as some other camera phones but there will be no difference between a 5 megapixel image and a 10 megapixel image when viewed on a high resolution monitor or HD TV. The phone comes bundled with Sony Ericsson face detection, smile shutter and the innovative BestPic which takes 9 quick fire photos and you can choose your favourite one. Along with all this the Cyber-shot phone supports geo-tagging.

As you would expect from any phone associated with the Sony music giants, the C903 has striking music software for great audio capabilities and along with quick access to YouTube the phone is quite an exciting multimedia device. The phone comes with HSDPA for high speed internet access and good download speeds; however it doesn’t come equipped with Wi-Fi. Overall a great cameraphone with all the software you need to enjoy it to the full.

The HTC Touch Pro2 is the successor to the Touch Pro. Similar in specification to the smaller Touch Diamond2, the Pro2 has a larger screen and an impressive QWERTY keyboard. They both have a sleek, professional look and are expected to be this year’s best-selling business phones. The most striking feature of the Pro2 is its high resolution 3.6 inch touchscreen. Just fractionally smaller than the colossal screen found on the Touch HD.

The five row QWERTY keyboard is slightly larger than previous HTC QWERTY devices. It has an offset key pattern, just like on a laptop and the screen can tilt at different angles, which is useful. Place the Pro2 face down and it becomes a comprehensive speakerphone with a high quality speaker on the back, a microphone, noise cancellation sensor and a mute button.

The Touch Pro2 comes with Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional which incorporates pocket Office, comprising Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote, and PDF view. All of these features help make the device a very desirable prospect in the business marketplace. Bundled with a 3.2 megapixel camera which has auto focus for good quality image capture.

As expected with most Smartphone’s the Pro2 has Wi-fi, HSPDA (up to 7.2 Mbps), GPS and Bluetooth. Other features include the TouchFLO finger swipe navigation, touch sensitive navigation controls, handwriting recognition, a very good web browser, FM radio with RDS, a VGA videocall camera, the list goes on and on!

You can now get the HTC Magic free on the Vodafone Text 40 Value plan. Normally costing £40 per month, Vodafone will give you a £10 monthly discount.

This is applied directly to your bill, you don’t have to claim it. With the VAT adjustment you’ll pay just £29.36 per month on an 18 month contact.

You get 600 minutes per month, unlimited mobile internet and email on your HTC Magic, plus unlimited texts. This is great value for money.

The HTC Magic brings you everything you love about the internet, exactly how you want it. It will keep you entertained, up to date and in touch, wherever you are. Exclusive to Vodafone, the HTC Magic is the second mobile to run on the Android OS. The first was the T-Mobile G1. One of the most notable differences between the Magic and the G1 is the lack of a QWERTY keyboard. This makes the Magic slimmer, lighter and more pocket-friendly. The 3.2 inch touchscreen interface is also an improvement over the G1, with plenty of little tweaks in the latest Cupcake incarnation of the Android OS.

The Magic has an accelerometer for autorotation and the screen has the option of handwriting recognition or the onscreen QWERTY keyboard. The trackball makes it easy to navigate around menus and scroll though messages. It’s not to everyone’s liking and HTC have removed the trackball from their new Touch Diamond 2; however it’s not a drawback to the high powered performance of this phone.

As we get into what the HTC Magic can do, it becomes very impressive. The Android OS has Gmail, Google maps including StreetView and YouTube all just a touch away. The HTC Magic is a practical business phone. It’s equipped with all the standard document viewers and with Wi-fi, Bluetooth and HSPDA (with download speeds of up to 7.2 Mbps) this is a very useful device to have outside the office. The HTC Magic is a step up from the G1 and is probably going to be the best Android phone available for a while.
