Review Summary

While we like the E71 better, the E66 is a great smart phone with class-leading features. If you want the functionality of a business phone without the bulk of a PDA form factor, the E66 is the phone you've been looking for.

This is the one and only handset you should get if you have a PlayStation 3 at home. On its own, the Aino is a very capable multimedia feature phone. Who knows, you may be tempted to fork out money for a PS3 after that.

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.

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.
