Overview

Samsung SGH-i320

Editors rating
Rating: 7.5
Verdict

Samsung's SHG-i320 is a handsome Windows Mobile smartphone with a plentiful, and for the most part useful, array of add-on software. You may want to try the keyboard before committing to a purchase though.

Typical price

£ 365

Featured Talkback

Put simply, what is the compelling reason to pay ~$200 extra for an Eee with Windows XP? A Windows Eee won't come with any useful applications and you'll have to buy anti-virus software to boot. The truth about low cost computing is that nobody really cares whether the machine is running Windows or Linux as long as its cheap, its easy to use and it works.
