Product name	Nokia N81 (8GB)	HTC Hero	Sony Ericsson Satio	Nokia N900
Editors' ratings (How we rate)	7 Very good	8 Excellent	8 Excellent	CNET Asia editor's take
Review Summary	We love the Nokia N81's mammoth 8GB of storage space and excellent music and gaming features. However, we wish it wasn't so bulky and that it had a better touch wheel. As a result it's not really the revolutionary multimedia handset that we were hoping for.	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.	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.	More info
