Overview

Redfly Mobile Companion

Editors rating
Rating: 5.0
Verdict

The mini-notebook-like Redfly Mobile Companion is a £250 paperweight without a Windows Mobile device to provide it with computing power and connectivity. It can do nothing on its own, and that's its big problem.

Typical price

£ 250
