The good: Sleek and slim; built-in camera; Bluetooth and IR ports; easy to customize; polyphonic ring tones.

The bad: Case smudges easily; calendar doesn't support all-day events.

The bottom line: Carving out a spot between the T68i and the P800, this Sony Ericsson model offers the perfect blend of size and features.

Review: After months of anticipation, the Sony Ericsson T616 has arrived in stores, and we're pleased to report that this small wonder lives up to the hype. Small enough to fit in the pocket of your jeans, the T616 ($299, or $249 after rebate) manages to pack a camera, a 65,000-color LCD, wireless Web and e-mail access, more than 20 polyphonic ring tones, Bluetooth support, and an infrared port into a slim, sleek package.
