'The original iPhone's flat slab design wasn't terribly comfy to hold while the curved back on the new model fits in the palm more naturally.'
'We chose white, since it was less likely to pick up fingerprints, though black looked quite sleek.'
'we were down at our local O2 store before opening this morning to pick up ours, thanks to the nice chaps at O2 - the UK’s exclusive iPhone carrier.'
'The iPhone's back side is a textured silver, rather than the polished stainless steel of the full-sized iPod models, so my guess is that both the front and back of the iPhone will be more resistant to scratches than either the full-sized iPod or the original iPod nano.'
'Even in a noisy environment, I could listen to audio from arm's length'
'Call quality was the worst we've heard on a high-end device in years'
'The device can get warm with constant use, and you'll need to wipe smudges from the glass screen frequently with the included cloth.'
'It weighs 130g and measures 113 x 58 x 17.4mm, but it feels very robust and solid, and we reckon it could take quite a kicking before anything fell off or apart.'
'Relatively bulky and heavy • MicroSD card slot is on an outside edge and unprotected.'
'SiRF III GPS receiver and optional TMC module'
'the P750 is able to update satellite data quickly – providing fast and accurate location fixes for navigating while on-the-go.'
'The supplied headphones are pretty decent, but if you don't like them, the phone has a standard 3.5mm mini-jack so you can swap them for any pair you like, which is handy.'
'bad design and buggy performance'
'include a bunch of multimedia functions'
'the camera and some aspects of the general user interface were disappointing.'
'large attachments could take a great deal of time even if you were on the fastest wireless G connection possible.'
'The 320-by-240 display is gorgeous, and navigating the device via the small--but very usable--QWERTY keyboard and BlackBerry Pearl -like trackball is quite comfortable.'
'The device can be sluggish at times, especially with numerous applications open..'
'It's a bit tough to slide the card in, and it goes in upside down for some reason, but at least it's not under the battery.'
'It was even easy to see in sunlight, something that can't be said about most screens.'
'The HTC's rear-firing speakerphone is more like a PA system: extremely loud (the phone vibrates with the power of the sound and folks in the next room will likely hear the call with no problems even at half volume).'
