'snappy smartphone performance'

'well chiselled, handsome, and light phone'

'stylish phone'

'While the phone feels a bit heavy in the hand at 165g (5.8 ounces), it doesn't feel as bulky in your pocket due to its smooth rounded edges.'

'The Surround is another solid smartphone offering from HTC. '

'It also has the new Internet Explorer Mobile which is a huge improvement over the earlier versions. '

'excellent entertainment phone'

'Navigation is identical to the previous phone, the touchscreen gestures are intuitive and the Magic responds to these well.'

'Short on juice Battery life is acceptable but not outstanding, not least because the Magic is always chatting away with the internet to deliver and receive your emails.'

'in most instances touching the screen is easier.'

'Streaming video looked impressive though, or at least it did once we'd discovered the 'watch in high quality' button in the menu.'

'The Web-based Kin Studio backs up all of your phone's data.'

'Even more convenient, everything you do on your phone is mirrored on Studio, which means all photos and low resolution videos are automatically uploaded to your Kin Web page. '

'the Kin Two feels pleasant to hold in the hand - in both two- and one-handed operation it's an easy phone to pick up and use.'

'The outer surface of this phone is resistant to vibrations, drops and even water.'

'The phone can withstand everyday knocks and is resistant to thermal shock, humidity, fog and rain.'

'projected capacitive touch screen and superbly elegant interface'

'The entire 4 inch screen is touch sensitive and it seems that the screen will be quite smooth.'

'Sony Ericsson has something cooking for November 3rd, and we're thinking it's the XPERIA X3, complete with that beautiful gesture-based Rachael user interface on its 4-inch screen. '

'The Sony Ericsson Xperia X3, Sony Ericsson’s first foray into Android, is looking tasty to the point where its older, more official Windows Mobile brother may get overlooked entirely.'

'But the most exclusive feature of Xperia X3 is its large sized camera. '
