 Mobiledia
editors see a lot of phones. And every quarter, they ask themselves, "What
cell phones would we want to slip in our own pockets?" Scouring the latest
mobile devices on the market, special attention was paid to design, features,
functions, as well as value. What they came up with in the end was the Mobiledia
Editors' Choice Award for best overall cell phones.
Not every cell phone is right for everyone, and that's why the Editors'
Choice list is so diverse. Considering a wide variety of demographics, the
best devices were chosen in a broad range to ensure everyone can find a cell
phone that best fits them, from the businessman on the road to the party animal
in the club.
Cell phones chosen for the Editors' Choice Award were selected from devices
at the time of release. Thus older phones may be lacking compared to
newer devices. Please make note of the release date.
