HTC Touch2 (unlocked)
  • Editors' rating: 3h stars
      Overall score: 7.0 (3.5 stars)
HTC Touch2 (unlocked) Reviewed on 10/06/2009

The Bottom Line: With the design improvements and enhancements of Windows Mobile 6.5, the HTC Touch2 makes for a nice smartphone for first-time users. Unfortunately, it's not bound for the U.S. and may not be worth its unlocked price.

Specs: WCDMA (UMTS) / GSM 850/900/1800/1900, Up to 440 min, With digital camera / digital player, 3.9 oz

Sonim XP3 Quest (unlocked) Reviewed on 08/31/2009

The Bottom Line: We're astounded by the lack of multimedia messaging, but the Sonim XP3 Quest should withstand most torture tests.

Specs: GSM 900/1800/1900 (Tri-Band), Up to 1080 min, With digital camera / FM radio, 6 oz

Pharos Traveler GPS 137 (unlocked)
  • Editors' rating: 3 stars
      Overall score: 6.7 (3.0 stars)
Pharos Traveler GPS 137 (unlocked) Reviewed on 08/27/2009

The Bottom Line: While better designed than the Traveler 127, the Pharos Traveler 137 still suffers from performance and navigation issues.

Specs: WCDMA (UMTS) / GSM 850/900/1800/1900, 240 min, 4.9 oz

LG Crystal GD900 (Unlocked)
  • Editors' rating: 3h stars
      Overall score: 7.0 (3.5 stars)
LG Crystal GD900 (Unlocked) Reviewed on 08/14/2009

The Bottom Line: The touch-screen LG GD900 Crystal's transparent, touch-sensitive, glass keypad looks cool but is pretty pointless. And, while two touch-sensitive surfaces mean there are more places to poke, it also means it's easy to make erroneous taps. While the phone sports plenty of interesting features, their implementation is sometimes lacking.

Specs: WCDMA (UMTS) / GSM 850/900/1800/1900, 360 min, With digital camera / digital player / FM radio, 4.4 oz

HTC Hero (unlocked)
  • User rating: 4 stars out of 9 reviews
HTC Hero (unlocked) Reviewed on 07/22/2009

The Bottom Line: If you can stand the Hero's occasional sluggishness, it's a fantastic smartphone packed with great features. We like its distinctive looks, and its innovative user interface brings Android much closer to being as fun and good-looking as the iPhone OS, while being far more customizable. Occasional lag and Android's rough edges mean it's not quite an iPhone killer, but it's definitely fighting in the same class.

Specs: WCDMA (UMTS) / GSM 850/900/1800/1900, Up to 470 min, With digital camera / digital player, 4.8 oz

Beyond E-Tech Duet D8 (unlocked) Reviewed on 07/02/2009

The Bottom Line: The Duet D8 offers support for two SIM cards, but its touch screen and keyboard result in a frustrating user experience.

Specs: GSM 850/900/1800/1900 (Quadband), Up to 240 min, 4.8 oz

Nokia N97 - silver (unlocked)
  • Editors' rating: 3h stars
      Overall score: 7.0 (3.5 stars)
  • User rating: 3h stars out of 39 reviews
Nokia N97 - silver (unlocked) Reviewed on 06/24/2009

The Bottom Line: While the Nokia N97 is packed with features and offers the freedom of an unlocked phone, its clunky touch interface, sky-high price tag, and outdated operating system make it hard to recommend when there are better touch-screen smartphones on the market.

Specs: WCDMA (UMTS) / GSM 850/900/1800/1900, Up to 400 min, With digital camera / digital player, 5.3 oz

Nokia N97 - black (unlocked)

  • User rating: 3 stars out of 8 reviews

The Bottom Line: The HTC Touch Cruise offers road warriors and travel lovers great navigation features in a compact smartphone; we just wish it had a better screen.

Specs: WCDMA (UMTS) / GSM 850/900/1800/1900, 400 min, With digital camera / digital player, 0.2 lbs

Nokia 5800 Xpress Music (Unlocked)
  • Editors' rating: 3h stars
      Overall score: 7.0 (3.5 stars)
  • User rating: 3h stars out of 75 reviews
Nokia 5800 Xpress Music (Unlocked) Reviewed on 04/24/2009

The Bottom Line: The Nokia 5800 XpressMusic offers an attractive design and feature set, but the touch-screen phone has some shortcomings compared with the competition.

Specs: WCDMA (UMTS) / GSM 850/900/1800/1900, Up to 540 min, With digital camera / digital player, 3.8 oz
