We test 11 keyboard-based smartphones to find the best tools for staying connected on the move

The Touch Pro2 is the ultimate corporate smartphone in terms of features, but it’s just too big and beefy.

A highly desirable device that still leads the way for ease of use, even if it isn’t the most rounded phone around

A good effort by Palm, but it’s a long way behind the best both ergonomically and functionally

Costly and fiddly to use, despite a decent keyboard and high-resolution screen.

A great keyboard, wonderful screen and loads of features, but battery life is weak and it’s a touch pricey

Jonathan Bray and Alex Bradner put 12 high-end handsets through our gruelling tests to find the best one for you.

Packed with features, but the keyboard is terrible and the touch-enabled OS confusing.

Well made, lots of goodies and an improved interface make this the best touch-only phone from HTC so far.

The HTC Magic, available through Vodafone and Three in Australia, may be the second Android phone but it's the first worth considering.

The 3GS is not a revolutionary upgrade, but one that finally makes the iPhone the smartphone to own. Here is our full review and summary of all the important features

Durable and laden with features, but let down by average performance and poor battery life

Slim, sleek, powerful and good value, but poor battery life rules this phone out of the running

A powerful phone with a superb keyboard, but it’s simply too costly to win an award

A gorgeous phone with impressive battery life, good features and a very tempting price

Brilliant ergonomics and admirable ease of use make this a great choice for those who need business email on the move

A great multimedia phone with surprising business features, but it feels clunky

Sumptuous design, a fantastic screen and a high-quality feel. Not as easy to use as an iPhone, but far more powerful

This phone can do it all, but it’s exceedingly frustrating to use, and that counts it out

The most intensely anticipated phone over the last six months in our labs has to be the HTC Dream. Read our first look here.
