The beginning of 2010 has already given us some superb mobile phones, the best of which were first released last year. Let's take a look at the best three phones so far this year.
Nokia N900
We begin with the most powerful smartphone in Finnish manufacturer Nokia's range. Their newest smartphone is the first of its kind; this is the first mobile phone ever to feature the new Maemo OS (previously seen in Nokia's internet tablet range). Give a warm welcome to the Nokia N900. This Maemo OS gives the Nokia N900 a finger friendly UI, and not only that, but the phone has an integrated QWERTY thumbboard, so it has more methods of interacting with the phone than just the touchscreen. It's not only about the interface, though, as the Nokia N900 is packed to the gills with high-end features. A 5 megapixel camera makes for beautiful photos, the multimedia player is stunning, and with HSDPA and GPS, the Nokia N900 certainly isn't short of connectivity options.
Palm Pre
However, in the world of the phone's interface, one single phone canes both of the other mobile phones in this article, without a doubt: the unique Palm Pre. The reason for this is simple: the Palm Pre is built on a completely custom UI known as WebOS, which is undoubtedly the sleekest, most user-friendly interface that's ever been made. As well as intuitive gesture controls and finger sweeps for EVERY interaction on the phone, the Palm Pre also gives you tight synergy between its different apps. Book a ticket for the movies on one app, and the Palm Pre instantly updates the calendar with the time. Multitask lots of powerful apps, and be amazed as you watch the Palm Pre run without slowing down at all. When it comes to the user interface, essentially, the Palm Pre just cannot be beaten!
HTC HD2
So, there's the Nokia N900 with its Maemo operating system, and then there is the Palm Pre, which features WebOS. And finally you have the HTC HD2; it holds the record for the biggest screen seen on any mobile phone. Coming in at a whopping 4.3 inches, it is truly vast, and the high, 800x480 resolution makes it incredibly easy to use things such as scrollbars in menus. However, the HTC HD2 actually does a very good job of making it so you do not need to drill down into the normal Windows menus very much, since on top of the operating system, the operating system is HTC's intuitive Sense UI, where everything is achieved by way of various finger swipes and sweeping gestures. It is truly intuitive, and it (as well as the truly awesome 1GHz Snapdragon chip) is the reason why the HTC HD2 is such an unmitigated joy to use. Of course, it's not all about being raw processing power, a phone has to have compelling features and the HTC HD2 has them in spades, from the 5 megapixel camera, through GPS, to incredibly fast HSDPA internet access (not to mention the superb Opera Mobile web browser), which is why many people see it as the best mobile phone EVER.
