Would you like to see some mobile phone reviews on DH?

Only high end products like the Nokia N-series please

comp_ali · Feb 9, 2009, 11:45 AM

Well , Reviewing high end only seems imperfect to me , Just look at the people voting in the 295gtx thread ( About 80 % said they are fond of them but can't afford ) . The best reviews I really appreciate in DH are mid-range cards round up. That doesn't mean ignoring the high end but these kind of reviews (refers to the mid-range ones) helped me to choose which card to buy within my budget limit. When looking at the high end reviews I just care to be in touch with the new technology developed and the technical specification improvments.

Absolutely we are living in a mobile world and personally I don't know as much about this technology as I would like too

Never owned a cell phone, and hope I never need to.

id like to see reviews of phones from midrange smartphones to high end ones...

no basic phones though, nothing interesting there...

agreed kris "midrange smartphones to high end ones" that would be nice! Although i dont really care much about phones; as long as i can call and send SMS'es am fine

blibbax · Feb 11, 2009, 12:48 PM

I wouldn't mind the odd phone review (maybe PDAs more relevent to this audience) but in particular I would like to NOT see an iphone review

.

I think you should reviews on more than just top end phones, that way peeps have a shot at not buying junk midrange stuff too. Dont forget to include some gaming on them too!

Go for it!

dagski · Feb 19, 2009, 11:48 PM

any phone worth reviewing. great for slow news/tech days..

procupine14 · Feb 20, 2009, 05:10 PM

Only high end stuff like the HTC Diamond and midrange stuff too I would venture to say nothing lower than in comparison to a BlackBerry Pearl

and as long as I get to review them hahahaha

considering I upgrade my smart phone about as often as my PC I'd like to get some reliable tech news about these devices

ET3D · Feb 22, 2009, 04:45 AM

I voted "not sure". I'm a big phone fan, but on the other hand, there are so many of them that I think this can get overwhelming. I don't want this limited to just high end phones, because I typically buy mid-range. I also don't want this to cannibalise other reviews.

Perhaps roundups are a good idea. For example, music phone roundup, networking phone roundup, ... Or articles about these features, such as browsers and e-mail for phones; music programs, formats and stores; phone gaming, ...

The article idea might be most appealing. Finding reviews of phones is not that hard, but finding a comparison of browsers on various phone platforms, or comparison of user interfaces, and so on, is something that could really help choosing a phone.

ET3D · Mar 10, 2009, 07:43 AM

Okay, you really need to review the Samsung I7410 when it comes out.

Customgamer1 · May 6, 2009, 12:24 PM

High end phones would work.

No need for the cheap ones since those are all more or less the same anyways. They all do a good job texting, talking etc.

The expensive phones are where the differences come into play!

comp_ali · May 6, 2009, 12:39 PM

I am thinking it would be nice if DH made a Mobile forum ( discussing issues , softwares ,models , ringtones ...etc) .

cbeasley0 · Jun 23, 2009, 09:12 PM

Yeah, im a huge smartphone junkie. I think MID's and mobiles should be discussed.
