Verdict

Toshiba's latest Tecra is as nice to look at and use as its predecessor, but we were a little disappointed with this 1.6GHz Mobile Pentium 4 system's performance, and battery life was less than expected. Hopefully production machines (which will have a slightly faster CPU and more RAM) will be quicker... Read Full Review.

Pros

Cons

  • Not as fast as expected

Nokia E63

Review Although it's missing some features (chiefly HSDPA and GPS), Nokia's E63 is a well-thought-out, ergonomic and affordable smartphone.
