Nokia 5800 XpressMusic Smartphone

$383.00 Est. at Amazon

from Grey, www.newegg.com
once you can get more random apps for this phone it will definitly be an iphone 3g killer.
from www.amazon.com
i wanted a new phone and i was going to get an iphone but then i saw this and how much the iphone fanboys hate it (lol).
from www.amazon.com
overall, i feel it has the potential to be better than the iphone or any other touch screen phone on the market today.
from www.amazon.com
if you only need languages already installed on the phone (which are different for phones sold in different market), it indeed is a great alternative to iphone.
from www.amazon.com
unlike the iphone, this phone has haptic feedback, good battery & it lets you add memory cards.

HTC G1 Smartphone

$425.00 Est. at Amazon

from mrsamylynn, www.shopping.com
after looking at the specs and reviews on just about every cell phone that's being sold right now we were debating between the g1 and the iphone.
from www.amazon.com
although the phone is pretty bulk its way better typing with it then the iphone and it comes in either white or black.
from www.amazon.com
it does not feel as refined as the iphone, but i have been a t mobile customer for a while and they gave me a good rate ($45/mo unlimited + $25 for data) the t-mobile store price matched amazon.com
from www.amazon.com
amazing phone; just picked one up ,and am dumfounded by the fucntionality and capabilities (definitely an iphone competitor)
from www.amazon.com
i don't use it as in browsing device option but when i do it is a much easier task than when asking the same of the iphone.

RIM BlackBerry Bold 9000 Smartphone

$350.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
while no iphone browser, it's more than capable to access info on the go, and feels pretty snappy (for a smart phone at least).
from www.amazon.com
i had an iphone before this and i love this phone way more!!!
from www.amazon.com
if you don't like blackberry's, get an iphone and quite worrying about it.
from www.amazon.com
i was really close to getting an iphone, but, there were a few things that iphone just couldnt offer no matter what the 3.0 software adds to it in june of 2009.
from www.amazon.com
so if your getting this phone for that then go with the iphone if you want a productivity tool that can also do good things with music and streaming video then you cant go wrong with this phone.

less than a month level of expertise: good title: another great treo date:?march 2, 2009 prosunbelivable touch and feel compared to treo 750, blackberry bold, and even iphone.
from www.amazon.com
this is not really palm's fault since it's a microsoft program, but until there is a killer media player for windows mobile, it will not be a true competitor of iphone.

it kicks arse over the "iphone"...sorry, but i need the tactile response of an actual keyboard...

if technology intimidates you, then buy this phone from a carrier, or go for a blackberry or iphone.

LG Dare VX9700 8 GB Cell Phone

$78.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
i have had the lg dare/vx9700 touch screen phone for over a month now and it is a great phone and certainly the best touch screen verizon has to offer and a great alternative to an iphone over on
from www.amazon.com
it is the closest you can get to an iphone for verizon.
from www.amazon.com
the voice is a woman's and slightly artificial, but the coolest thing ever...i don't think the iphone and instinct do that...is it practical, no but who cares it is damn cool.
from www.amazon.com
if you can live with a touch screen and are realistic about what having one means for functionality, i think it's a good alternative to an iphone.
from www.amazon.com
-the non-touch screen physical buttons on the bottom of the phone are great and practical (unlike the iphone) so you don't have to worry about searching for the send, clear/voice command or end keys

after i realized that i couldn't text on a touch screen phone, unless it was the iphone.
from www.amazon.com
i also have a mac, so the phone does not like to sync to my computer as much as i would if i had a pc, although i do prefer this phone to an iphone.
from www.amazon.com
i had an iphone before this, i liked the easy to use nature of the phone and the easy integration with my mac.
from www.amazon.com
in the end, i choose the 8900 because it didn't have a glass touch screen (no iphone or behold for me thank you, replace cost an arm and a leg), the device is one of the most ergonomic out there, and

thoughts: - some have mentioned fingerprints; i have the black version of the phone and i must say that it's not as bad as people are describing it, and i'm very picky (it's nothing like the iphone).
from www.amazon.com
prior to buying e75, i have done research on various high-end phones on iphone, blackberrry, sony and even various other nokia e-series and n-series phones and have also read almost all existing e75

it may not be as beginner-friendly as, say, the iphone but compared to the e75, most other phones (e.g.

Nokia N79 Cell Phone

perfect for someone who's not sold on iphones or anything that has a touchscreen.
from www.amazon.com
since when did the iphone had auto focus on its camera, maybe in 5 years but nokia n79 brings tomorrows technology today.
from www.amazon.com
(2) the keypad is a little firm, from a touchscreen iphone to actually clicking down, the keys could be softer!
from www.amazon.com
the built in browser is good and it supports adobe flash which iphone lacks for copyright considerations.
from www.amazon.com
sorry iphone, this phone has two cameras, video conference capability, lots of editing options, amazing battery life, wi-fi and more, all of these hidden behind a humble form factor.

HTC Touch HD Smartphone

from www.amazon.com
so, the product is great, the only compatative disadvantage with iphone for me is the slower response rate of the touch-screen.
from www.amazon.com
it's very clean and the screen is the best i've seen in a device (much better than the iphone).
from www.amazon.com
it has the same size as the iphone.
from www.amazon.com
i also considered the iphone 3g and the blackberry storm.
from www.amazon.com
undeniably, i think that currently, iphone has the best touch screen speed and sensitivity (i don't own one, but have played around with my friend's).

this phone makes me want to get rid of my iphone because of everything it does, let alone not have to pay to add on third party apps because everything works out of the box.
from www.amazon.com
i've had this phone for about 6 months so i'm still learning about new applications but so far i'm not entirely thrilled with the phone, but it does offer things that the iphone doesn't.
from www.amazon.com
tried the iphone....amazing gadget but mediocre reception (do a google search on the topic) and lousy camera.

never had any listening problem like i had with my iphone.

sure this phone is $6-700, and yeah it is not an iphone but in the long run, you are paying it anyway if you are in the usa.
from www.amazon.com
i'm a music lover and the music player is not as good as the iphone's (that i owned before) i wish some day we can get itunes on this phone, and everything would be wonderful
from www.amazon.com
the only problem i had with it was the backlight wouldnt turn on sometimes but last night i updatedthe firmware and it went away...so now, my n97 is perfect...iphones are sooooo overrated!!!
from www.amazon.com
while it could have been my friend's iphone, it was also clear that the only plausible fault in this situation was the n97 since every previous call with the e71 had been trouble-free.
from www.amazon.com
i have owned the n95 for a few years and it's the best phone/camera/phone hybrid ever-a bit buggy but ok-the n97 is a great improvement-i also have an iphone.

it isn't a smartphone so for those of you coming from a centro, or touch diamond, iphone etc...

every time i read a review on a mobile device, suddenly iphones appear as the industry standard.

i must confess to a (possibly irrational) antipathy to all things apple so didn't consider the iphone, though i have no doubt that the iphone is probably more user-friendly.

windows mobile is often found to be lacking when compared to the iphone.
