Sony Ericsson continues to set high standards with their current range and the W850i is no exception. If you can look past the uncomfortable navigational pad, this is an excellent 3G phone.

The Z610i is a handset that will appeal to those who want something extremely stylish, yet not without substance.

The K608i proves that 3G handsets don't have to be big and bulky. It comes recommended and has an array of fine features, but an uncomfortable keypad and small internal memory detract from the overall package.

The F165 Country Phone doesn't really look appealing, but looks can be deceiving. In addition to claiming excellent reception in rural areas, the F165 has a sturdy rubber casing and is lightweight.

At this price, Telstra's T6 is reasonable value and it boasts some good features. However, there are better designed handsets in this segment of the phone market.

The Telstra F158 will definitely appeal to tradesmen who require their mobile phone take a beating, but if you look past the ruggedised design, there isn't much else on offer.

The F159 improves on its predecessor by adding assisted GPS and Telstra's TalkNow service.

The EasyTouch's personalised home screen is an excellent feature, but the rest of this handset is solid, without offering anything outstanding.

Although it has some design issues, the F256 should appeal to those who are on a budget, but still want access to the BigPond range of services through the high-speed Next G network.

The F852 is a solid but far from outstanding option. Its appeal lies in the fact that it can access the full range of Next G services and content on a relatively inexpensive plan.
