Very good |
Review Summary |
Though not perfect, the i780 is an excellent choice for those who want the most features in a sub-S$1,000 PDA-phone. |
Business users looking for a competent, no-nonsense smartphone will like the E72 for its breadth of features and stylish design. |
More info |
HTC's first smartphone with WM6.5 ticks almost all the boxes for an entry-level smartphone, though it needs to be cheaper to differentiate itself from more highly-specced products. |
