5 of the best smartphones
May 18, 2005 [General] | By Edward J. R.

The biggest British magazine about mobile phones - "Total Mobile" - in the latest issue (131) has a special devoted to smart phones. How well Windows Mobile scored in this special - in comparison to Symbian and PalmOS?

Windows Mobile scored very well taking 1st and 3rd positions:

5 of the best ... smartphones

Orange SPV C500

Sony Ericsson P910i

i-mate JAM / T-Mobile MDA Compact

Nokia 6680

PalmOne Treo 650

Furthermore "Total Mobile" elaborates:

Orange SPV C500 - Seriously pocketable package that's tacked with smartphone functionality in a stylish, compact design. A Windows Mobile -based smartphone, it comes with suite of familiar desktop-style apps onboard and has plenty of scope for adding software.

i-mate JAM / T-Mobile MDA Compact - The O2 Xda and MDA range of full-size Windows Mobile Pocket PC Phone Edition devices are seriously powerful, but i-mate JAM / T-Mobile MDA Compact has comparable functionality, software and versatility in a pocket-friendly device that delivers on the promise of a phone-sized but powerful Pocket PC. And with a 1.3 megapixel camera, too!

"Total Mobile" magazine is now on sale at newstands in UK for 3.99 British pounds. Website of this (paper) magazine is here.

Please note that Windows Mobile has beaten Symbian also in German press: here is overview of a test that showed, that Symbian based Nokia 3230 is inferior to Windows Mobile powered Motorola MPx220.

Conclusion: clearly Windows Mobile software for mobile phones is very powerful however only in combination with small size of devices, this power translates into popularity among end users and journalists (see above).
