Top 10 Smartphone

10. Motorola Droid X

Motorola Droid X shines at multimedia playback, network performance, and features; but the interface can occasionally be sluggish.The follow-up to Motorola’s wildly popular Droid on Verizon, the Droid is one of the hottest phones.Its specs outshine those on the other Droid phones available on the network, but it falters a bit when it comes to performance.

9. Google Nexus One

The Google Nexus One impresses with a stunning AMOLED display, speedy performance, and cool tweaks to the Android OS; but some network issues prevent it from being a superphone.

It lacks some valuable features–like multitouch and Outlook calendar syncing–that we’ve seen on competing models, and the Android keyboard can be difficult to use. That said, the Nexus One’s speedy Qualcomm Snapdragon 1GHz processor definitely sets it apart from the Android pack in performance.

One asterisk attached to the phone’s performance involves its interaction with the T-Mobile network. The phone has run into some network issues, a distressing shortcoming on a phone with so many connected features. Nevertheless, it is a very good handset and marks real progress for the Android platform.

8. Motorola Milestone

Motorola has been extremely quiet in Australia over the last few years but i’m hoping it comes to market with the Milestone, which is similar to the Droid that Motorola launched in the US.It runs Android 2.0 and has iPhone-like multitouch support, with users able to pinch the 3.7-inch screen to zoom on web pages, maps and photos. The phones comes with Motorola’s turn-by-turn GPS navigation software, MOTONAV, a slide-out QWERTY keyboard and a 5-megapixel camera.

7. T-Mobile myTouch 3G Slide

he myTouch 3G Slide has a 3.4 inch display, side slide out QWERTY keyboard, 5 megapixel camera, 600 MHz processor, and Swype touch keyboard. The new Android features include the Faves Gallery, myModes, and Genius button. myModes is a cool way where your device can be setup to automatically change the customization of the HTC Sense interface based on time and/or location so you can have it switch from business to personal mode after the workday ends.

6. Nokia N8

The N8 is also the first Symbian^3 powered device. While the user interface doesn’t look much different than what we see in S60 and Maemo, it does have improvements that will probably appeal to Nokia and Symbian fans around the world and may even bring in some new fans.

Specifications include 5-band 3G data support, anodized aluminum casing in five colors, 3.5 inch 640×360 pixels resolution OLED display, 720p video recording capability, 12 megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss optics, internal 16GB memory with support for microSD expansion cards, HDMI port, USB , FM transmitter, 680 MHz processor, and USB On-the-Go so you can plug in USB devices to use them without a PC.

5. Apple iPhone 3GS

The iPhone 3GS provides great video recording with its 3MP camera as well as editing features and allows you to shoot video in any way you please. The camera allows you to record 640 x 480 videos at 30 frames / second, which is almost DVD quality. Trimming options allow you to remove any unwanted footage and with just a click away you can easily share these videos on YouTube. When emailing videos, the iPhone 3GS increases compression and shrinks videos’ dimensions to 480 x 360 to get the bitrate of 800 kb/sec. The quality of the resulting videos drop down but it is adequate for the casual users and comparable to most videos created with cell phones.

4. HTC Droid Incredible

Specifications of the HTC Droid Incredible include a 3.7 inch 480×800 WVGA AMOLED display, 8 megapixel camera, Android 2.1 with HTC Sense 2.5, 1 GHz Snapdragon processor, and 8GB internal memory and support for microSD expansion cards. The Incredible feels great in your hand with its unique back design and soft touch outer shell material.

3. HTC EVO 4G

The speedy HTC EVO 4G packs in some powerful specs and a variety of multimedia features into a stylish, minimalist design, but not everybody will get to enjoy one of its best features–4G connectivity.HTC has struck gold again with the HTC EVO 4G, which is easily the best Android Smartphone available. The EVO 4G packs powerful specs and a lot of features in a slick, stylish design. The biggest drawback is that not everyone will get to experience 4G connectivity, one of the phone’s best features at launch–yet they’ll still have to pay for it.The EVO 4G goes a step further with an 8-megapixel camera with a dual-LED flash. The EVO 4G comes with the bare minimum: a Micro-USB cable, a USB wall charger, a 1500mAh battery, and an 8GB MicroSD card.

2. Apple iPhone 4GS

The iPhone 4G boasts of a higher resolution with its display capabilities. Maximum display output is pegged at 960 x 540, half of the display that can be projected by a Full HD LCD/LED TV. This is a wonderful improvement. Many people watch videos with their portable devices, and the new resolution has just made Apple’s flagship product into a powerful, mini multimedia monster! Of course, the line’s audio playback is already legendary. The higher resolution only adds to the value of the product.

Previous iPhone models were capable W-iFi net phones. But the 4G now possesses 802.11, which makes it an even better portable internet device.

The line is also known for its fantastic camera, despite its low resolution. But the 4G bumps this up to 5 megapixels, and adds a front camera for one of the unit’s most prominent additions…

Yes, the iPhone 4G is now capable of video calling! The usefulness of this added feature, however, depends on the user’s preference. Though majority may like the new video calling capability of the device, some people may find it as a mere novelty

1. Windows Phone 7

There’s a lot riding on Microsoft’s next mobile operating system. For the last 18 months Windows Mobile has lag newer rivals like the iPhone, BlackBerry and Android. Its market share has dropped..it’s clear Microsoft has wiped the slate clean and started fresh with a new platform and a revamped, innovative user interface.But Microsoft’s insistence on manufacturers keeping its tile-based UI may limit phone makers like HTC, which has done wonders to dolly up Windows Mobile 6.5 with its Sense interface. And the inability to upgrade existing Windows Mobile phones to Windows Phone 7 may frustrate those who recently shelled out for a 6.5 device.
