Motorola is a company that has become synonymous with the cell phone. For a number of years, the company has been one that continuously innovated the game. As of late, Motorola hasn’t been the company that there were a few years ago, but they still release some really decent devices. For instance, the Motorola Cliq has had some pretty good success, and this is something that the company has taken note of and released the Cliq XT, a phone that’s a pretty good update to one of their recent hits. The Cliq was a pretty good smartphone that was geared more to those that liked a bit more multimedia applications, and this version is one that doesn’t disappoint.
One of the first things a person will notice about the XT would happen to be the sleeker design of the device. It has an on-screen keyboard that’s very responsive, and that’s certainly not all. The 5 mega-pixel camera is topnotch and capable of taking some pretty pristine pictures. It has 3G and wifi capabilities, as well. Of course, there’s a drawback to this particular phone. While a lot of the world loves Android 2.1, this device runs the slower version of the operating system, 1.5. Lastly, the screen size may be a little too small for those who enjoy the larger screen sizes of most smartphones.
In summary, the Motorola Cliq XT is more than an update to the Cliq, as many would believe. It’s reasonably priced, sleek, and will definitely get the job done with it’s excellent call quality.

Nokia has long been a leader in the phone industry, releasing some of the most innovative phones that the world has seen. For a while there, they were the staple, and barely anyone had anything that wasn’t a Nokia brand phone. While times have changed, the company is still releasing some of the best phones in the market, although they may not get nearly as much as attention as the iPhone or any Android based phones. While that may not change, that is not to say that they are incapable of releasing a smartphone that people will love. While there certainly some misses with the company, the E55 is certainly not that kind of phone.
The Nokia E55 is one that is set to appeal to the business person as well as one that’s looking for a multimedia device. The design is something that isn’t seen on many smartphones, as it is extremely slim, but it doesn’t substitute that for any features. Also, one of the best things about the phone would happen to be that it’s affordable. We all know that there aren’t many smartphones that are on the market that are cheap, and it’s surprising to find one that has a pretty good price with some good features. It’s colorful, slim, and is perfectly suitable for the businessman and the person who likes multimedia phones.
For the person looking for a smartphone that’s slim, sleek, and cost-effective, the Nokia E55 is probably one of their best bets.

We all know about the various computer related offerings that the company has, but there are only a select few that have experienced their amazing line of cell phones. The company has been successfully making some pretty good stuff, and while a lot of people may be waiting on the Windows 7 phones, they surely haven’t been focusing all of their energy on that particular line.
The Kin One is one of two phones that have been the product of their Project Pink. It’s geared for the younger crowd, and those who may be admitted social media junkies. When it comes to looks, the Kin One is definitely unlike a lot of phones on the market. It’s small, rounded, and will surely catch the eye. What makes this phone genuinely great is the fact that it is probably one of the best social media phones on the market. It’s easy to sync and update a Facebook, Myspace, or Twitter account with a click of a button. Also, it is the first Windows phone that utilizes the Zune multimedia experience, something that has been talked about on the series of Windows 7 phones to come this year.
All in all, the Kin One is something that should be seriously considered if a person is looking for a phone with very strong social media implementations. And with the price and stylish look, it seems to be a pretty strong contender.
