With the Samsung Ultra Edition 12.1 (U700) making its exit, Nokia and Sony Ericsson once again dominated our monthly Top 10 list. Although the Nokia 6300 ceded its pole position to the Sony Ericsson W910i Walkman phone in December 2007, the entry of the 5610 XpressMusic tipped the chart in favor of the Finnish company 7:3. Scroll down for the full listing.

	3.	Nokia 6500 slide   CNET Asia rating: 7.7 out of 10 The good: Solid build quality and one of the best sliders available; Carl Zeiss optics for the 3.2-megapixel autofocus camera; quadband GSM with dual-band UMTS; A2DP.

	4.	Nokia E51       CNET Asia rating: 8 out of 10 The good: Slim, solid design; stainless steel construction; multiple dedicated buttons and shortcut keys; excellent tactility; HSDPA, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth stereo A2DP; generous 130MB of onboard memory; snappy performance. The bad: Rose Steel version attracts fingerprints easily; preinstalled Quickoffice is read-only version; no front-facing camera for video calls; average image quality.

	6.	Nokia 6300   CNET Asia rating: 8.3 out of 10 The good: Slim design; sharp color screen; easy-to-use keypad; slick-looking user interface that keeps it simple. The bad: No auto-focus or flash on the camera; lack of 3G connectivity. The bottom line: While this isn't the most advanced handset out there, it has a strong casing, a decent all-round feature set and an elegant, straightforward design. This is Nokia at its best.

	7.	Sony Ericsson K810i   CNET Asia rating: 7.9 out of 10 The good: Auto-focus and xenon flash on camera; new and improved camera cover. The bad: Keys are a little too small on the keypad; Web browser could be better; no killer extra features over predecessor. The bottom line: It's a good camera phone, but it lacks the wow factor of its predecessors. If you already own a K800i then it's not worth upgrading, although others will want to check it out.

	8.	Nokia 5610 XpressMusic   First take The 5610 is a sexy slider handset that comes in red and blue editions. It's a bit larger than the its little brother the 5310 (99mm tall by 49mm wide by 17mm thick; 110g), but it's still small enough to take on the go. It doesn't have the same side-mounted music buttons, but it does have a sliding control above the navigation toggle that activates the music player with one swipe. Also, the camera lens on the 5610's rear face has a flash. First take | See full specs | Rate this
	9.	Nokia N95   CNET Asia rating: 8 out of 10 The good: HSDPA; Wi-Fi; onboard GPS; 5-megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss lens; 3.5mm audio jack; mini-USB connector. The bad: Build quality doesn't justify the premium price; poor battery life; sluggish performance when multiple applications are running; premium price. The bottom line: There's no doubt that the Nokia N95 is one of the most full-featured smart phones available right now, but its poor battery life could very well be its Achilles' heel.

	10.	Sony Ericsson W580i   CNET Asia rating: 8 out of 10 The good: Slick and slim design; funky features including Walkman music player and pedometer; solid build. The bad: Buttons can be difficult to press; not 3G; no camera flash. The bottom line: Sony Ericsson's W580i is a sexy, thin slider that you'll want to carry in your pocket for its MP3 music player, radio or just to use the built-in pedometer.
