The Spice Edge S-1000 is a capable smartphone with almost all features in place, but the fact that it doesn’t support EDGE will lead to slow web browsing speeds and the lack of a full QWERTY keypad will lead to frustrating messaging and email sessions for business users who would prefer a keyboard to T9.

• It is very cool and sexy mobile, it gives royal look. black mobile with everything black , i have no words for this stylish mobile.
• The phone supports recharging via USB, so you can recharge the phone anywhere you can find a computer or a laptop.
• On the other hand, the S-1000 is the only Windows Mobile phone with a large touch-screen and a numeric keypad.
• Three days is fair enough for a smartphone with these features.
• With WiFi and Bluetooth off when not in use, the phone lasts around 3 days with a moderate amount of calls.
• With a good amount of WiFi activity, the phone was out in just a little over a day, or at maximum, 2.

The only problem here is that the phone takes too long to recharge. Even an hour after recharging a fully drained battery, unplugging the USB cord will give you the “Main battery low” message.

The ASUS P750 is top of the line, 3G capable PDA phone that has every possible feature you’d ever want. The design is gorgeous, and the phone looks great in its matt black outfit.

Though oriented towards executives, the P750 lacks a QWERTY keypad; it does have touch screen, which in combination with windows mobile 6 makes up for the lack. There are five input options available, and the XT9 option works like a charm-it can predict words better than the old T9 dictionary most other cell phones have.

The P750 comes loaded with an abundance of pre-installed applications- Microsoft Office 6.1, including Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Notes and Calendar, is the highlight. The P750 also features GPS, a business card reader, UR time home screen, Remote presenter, Java, ASUS launcher, etc-this phone is a treasure trove.

The P750 performed admirably. The signal reception was good; in low reception areas calls weren’t dropped. Voice clarity is great, and the speaker-phone is loud and clear. Most importantly, the P750 deliver in the area that matters the most-usability.

The P526 is an affordable PDA phone that goes head-to-head with Sony Ericsson P1i and Nokia E61i. The headset’s design is very similar to its high-end sibling, the P526. The P526 is well proportioned, and feels more comfortable to hold than Nokia’s E61i.

The P526 is also comes bundled with the necessary applications- Mobile Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. PIM functions include a meeting Time Planner, Remote Presenter, Voice commander, business card recognition and Java support. The phone also includes GPS, but the corresponding software needs to be installed separately.

The P526 doesn’t have a joystick, and completely relies on the touch screen for navigation, which isn’t very intuitive. The soft menu buttons and two dedicated buttons are in the form of a small thin strip, and are difficult to operate. The keypad is well spaced, and offers good tactile feedback.

The ASUS P526 has good signal reception, and we had no problem with dropped calls or static. Voice clarity was good, and two days on 45 minutes of talk, GPRS usage and tinkering around with GPS.
