Currently, the RIM Blackberry Tour is one of the hottest phones on the market. It was released for Verizon Wireless and Sprint and as a 3G smart phone, it delivers what it promises. You can “tour” by making calls all throughout the world. What does it support? EV-DO Rev, of course — at high speeds. You can email, send IMs, SMS, MMS, and do all kinds of social networking. Naturally, of course, GPS is built right into the phone, which has a full QWERTY keyboard. The display is all about high resolution, the phone has a 3.2 megapixel camera, it supports video recording, has a media player to play videos, and of course users can enjoy the latest and best Bluetooth, music, and pictures.
So, guess what we will soon be seeing all over Hollywood? Blackberry is definitely giving the iPhone a serious run for its money!

It has to be said that the coolest and I mean the absolute coolest cell phone that was just announced is the Samsung Louvre B7610. This beautiful, incredible and all around perfect phone is absolutely great looking and this is the very first, official photo of it! However, I not only have the official photo, but I also have some of the specs for this phone so you can decide if you really want it or not!
First and foremost, you should know that this phone is obviously a slider, but what you might not know is that it is a slider that is super, super thin! It also has 3.5-inch AMOLED WVGA touchscreen, a 5MP camera with image stabilization, an accelerometer sensor for auto-rotate, an FM radio with RDS, a 1GB of internal memory, a microSD card slot (up to 32GB), GPS, WiFi, Bluetooth, HSDPA connectivity, a 1500 mAh battery and runs on Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional, which are all freakin’ fantastic!
The pricing is between two hundred and five hundred and honestly, it is supposed to be released in France in July … hopefully later this year in the US!

Now that we have talked about quite a few different phones, I think that we need to touch base on the Samsung ‘Yuna’s Haptic’. This incredible phone is by far one of the best phones in South Korea! While it is not available in the US yet, this phone is absolutely beautiful and is actually named after the figure skater Yuna Kim. The cool thing about this phone besides all of the technology that is packed into it is the fact that you can get it in all sorts of different colors!
Whether you want it in snow white, sweet pink or noble black, this Samsung phone has all sorts of features on it, including a ‘My Diary’ option, a 3MP short with auto-focus capabilities, T-DMB, SOS functionality and many, many more features!
While this phone is only available in Korea, you can get it offline if you wanted for just $481.00!

The Blackberry is increasing in popularity to such an extent that it is becoming a very real rival for the ever so coveted iPhone. However, in the Blackberry’s haste to become better than the iPhone, they may have finally crossed a line. There comes a time when even cell phone manufacturers have to cave into that dear old adage that if it ain’t broken, maybe you shouldn’t attempt to fix it just yet.
I’m not saying that the RIM Blackberry Bold 9000 isn’t spiffy — I mean, it’s a Blackberry, it’s almost a given. But the majority of consumer opinions and reviews available about this phone are disappointingly tepid.
By and large, it gets a completely average overall score. If this Blackberry was given a report card, it would receive straight Bs, some of them on the low side and some of them solid.
Its design is unquestionably sleek, its display is unquestionably sharp, and since it’s a 3G, it connects at high speed, but … those are about the only features which speak well for it.
For example, users do not appreciate the phone’s call quality. They aren’t fond of the quality of the camera’s pictures either. In fact, there are enough cons associated with this phone that people are beginning to feel its good qualities are not enough to justify the price. If you sign on with a two year contract from AT&T, you can get the phone for $300. If you don’t have a contract, it’s more than double that price: a whopping $680.

It has to be said that the HTC Touch Diamond 2 is definitely one of those phones that everyone in the world should at least try once.

The LG Arena is definitely a phone that I think is hot. Not only does it support 3 and 2G networks, but is also has a huge 16M screen that is a touchscreen. It is Bluetooth capable and it has up to 8G of flash storage. Really, how much better can you get with a phone? Oh, it gets better! The camera is 5MP and it is actually one phone that is super thin but a little heavy.
After reading up on the LG Arena, I finally decided to get it. The entire phone was too much to resist and I really, really wanted to see if it was as good as all of the reviews said it was and to be honest? It is! It is by far the easiest phone in the world to use, it’s durable and it is definitely a cool looking phone.
Now if you want fashion – the Arena is for you! It is lightning fast and looks hot!

Samsung is one of the most popular smartphone designer, and this I900 Omnia has to be one of my favorite phones they’ve released over the last couple months.
It’s slim, it’s high-tech and it’s an iPhone look-a-like, which is NEVER a bad thing!
