 Share this

30th June 2010

After a quiet start to the year, June saw a variety of major handset announcements from major manufacturers.

Apple

The biggest news this month was the launch of the new-look Apple iPhone 4 with major improvements in processor speed, the camera and display it was a must-have for most Apple fans. However, problems with the antenna have blighted the iPhone 4's launch.

Motorola

The Motorola Milestone XT720 is an enhanced but keyboardless version of the existing Milestone, based on the Korean MOTOROI handset. Heading for the US only, the Motorola DROID X comes with a huge screen and improved features, but it is a big beast of a phone. Aimed at large businesses, the Motorola ES400 Enterprise Digital Assistant is a high-end Windows smartphone for the always-connected enterprise customer. At the other end of the smartphone market, the Motorola FLIPOUT is a MOTOBLUR enabled device with a very unusual rotating QWERTY keyboard.

Nokia

The Nokia C2 is a low-cost handset that is also Nokia's first dual SIM phone. Cheaper still, but with a less sophisticated double SIM arrangement is the Nokia C1-00. The confusingly named Nokia C1-01 and C1-02 are very cheap traditional phones with surprisingly good features.  The Nokia X5-01 is a sliding QWERTY smartphone with a highly unusual square design that should turn heads.

Sony Ericsson

Sony Ericsson's second Android phone, the Sony Ericsson Xperia X8 is a bit more modest than their high-end X10 handset and is a lot cheaper. The Sony Ericsson Yendo is a Walkman phone with a touchscreen, but not much else to recommend it. The Sony Ericsson Cedar is a more environmentally friendly phone than most, but will customers desert rivals to buy it?
