ComputerWorldOverall, the Cingular 8525 is fast, memory-efficient and well-designed smart phone made particularly attractive by an intelligent keyboard design and relatively large display. It’s an excellent choice for corporate road warriors and geeks on the run. |

Shiny ShinyOverall, this is a good Pocket PC if you’re serious about your work. The design is attractive and ergonomic, and it’s not heavy enough to make you walk with a limp when it’s in your pocket. |

MobileBurnWhile the Cingular 8525 is a solid performer in most regards, it fails to show any real greatness. It has a good display, a good keyboard, and great connectivity options and data rates. But it is also very bulky, quite heavy, and more than a bit cumbersome to use at times. |

TrustedReviewsI’d been waiting for a smaller format 3G connected Pocket PC for a long time, and the TyTN lived up to my expectations. It’s neat, tidy, well designed and pocketable. The keyboard works well and it is nice to see the scroll wheel return. |
