Samsung SGH-i780 compared to the most popular

Compare to top rated mobile phones »

Product name	Samsung SGH-i780	HTC Hero	Sony Ericsson Xperia X10	Nokia N900
Editors' ratings (How we rate)	8 Excellent	8 Excellent	CNET Asia editor's take	6.7 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.	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.	More info	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.
