Product name	Motorola E398	Sony Ericsson Satio	Nokia N900	HTC Hero
Editors' ratings (How we rate)	7.7 Excellent	8 Excellent	6.7 Very good	8 Excellent
Review Summary	The Motorola E398 with its host of features is well-suited for sophisticated mobile users while its smart outlook will appeal to executives.	The Satio delivers great pictures and comes with many high-end features, but the inconsistent user interface of the platform mars the overall experience of the device.	There are a lot of things we like about the N900, but just as many which annoy us. That said, it's still a very capable smartphone (if you call it that), but just not ready for primetime, yet.	A combination of good design and a fully customizable user interface make the Hero a great smartphone. A boon for the Android platform still in its infancy.
