- recommendedHTC Wildfire review The Wildfire is basically a Desire Lite, with the utility of HTC's Sense software and the open nature of Android, but with a smaller screen.£224
- Sony Vaio EC2S0E/WI review Reasonable 2D and 3D performance and a great design work in its favour, but the EC2S0E/WI's Blu-ray drive alone doesn't justify the high price and the display should be Full HD.£914
- Mesh Matrix 945CS review A good all-round system, with a Full HD monitor and enough performance to handle multimedia editing, but CyberPower's Infinity i3 Apollo XT is far better value.£600
- Asus G73Jh review Desktop-level performance and a great Full HD screen make the G73Jh one of the first truly desirable gaming laptops, but it's pricey and the keyboard's build quality is questionable£1566
- best buySamsung GT-I9000 Galaxy S 16GB review Slim, light, with a gorgeous AMOLED screen, fast processor and Android's easy-to-use interface and wealth of apps£510
- best buyEclipse Fusion A925R575 review A 24in monitor, fast graphics card and the latest storage technologies edge this PC ahead of the competition, but the short warranty is a touch disappointing£700
- Acer beTouch E400 review It's relatively cheap for an Android 2.1 handset, but the resistive screen and 600MHz processor mean that it's not as responsive to use£234
- Acer T231H review The T231H isn't a bad touchscreen monitor, but it's simply too expensive to recommend.£310
- Acer neoTouch P300 review Despite a good selection of apps, Windows Mobile has a poor touchscreen interface, and the ugly P300 doesn't make life easier with its poor screen, battery life and keyboard£280
- Mesh XGS 965BE review A fast processor, Full HD display and plenty of room for expansion make the XGS 965BE seem a decent choice, but Eclipse's Fusion A925R575 offers even more for the same price£700
- LG GT540 Optimus review Although it's good value, the sleek Optimus has an out-of-date version of Android, and LG hasn't done much to improve on the basic interface£150
- Dell Streak review The Streak's size will divide opinion, but its battery life and interface improvements are great£449
- best buyHP All-in-One 200-5020 review The full HD, LED-backlit screen has excellent contrast, and the dual-core processor is powerful enough for most applications. It's excellent value for an all-in-one.£611
- Google Nexus One review Hard to distinguish from HTC's Desire, the Nexus One lacks HTC's Sense software and more practical controls£500
- RIM BlackBerry Bold 9700 review A smart, well-made phone with top business credentials, the Bold 9700 can be a pain to set up correctly, and doesn't offer a large screen or a wide variety of apps£350
