See the world the Top 5 Smartphones

Planning to buy a Smartphone and spoilt for choice. ET gives you a list of the Top 5. 

Apple iPhone 3G for Rs 29,650 Hot Buy: Apple's latest manoeuvre has the smartphone veterans reeling. It's taken the best gadget ever, added HSDPA broadband and GPS to its competition-trouncing mobile experience and knocked a huge chunk off its price. Sure, the 2 MP camera is disappointing, but glossy black or white finishes update the design and applications galore extend functionality in new and cool ways. It even supports Microsoft Exchange, so it can now be used as your business phone. The emphasis is still on fun, though, with 8 GB or 16 GB of pure pocket entertainment prowess. Buy one. Now. KILLER FEATURE: Best ever iPod, amazing video and web… and it makes calls.  HTC Hero (AKA T-Mobile G2 Touch) for Rs 31,990 A Google phone that plays down its Googly elements, the Hero feels next-gen in every respect. Its custom multitouch interface gives the iPhone a run for its money and its internet apps are superb. It has a 3.5 mm jack but only MicroSD for storage.

HTC Touch HD for Rs 49,900 The HD's 3.8 inch, 800x480 screen is exceptional. It makes this HSDPA-equipped handset a brilliant web browser and movie player, and glosses over WinMo's complexities. Other highlights include a 5 MP camera and a-GPS.  Nokia E72 for Rs 22,989 Just edging out the Bold 9700 as our favourite messaging mobile, the slender E72 offers a potent mix of multimedia talents (5 MP camera, GPS) and a fine QWERTY keypad. A metal finish and welcome 3.5 mm headphone socket seal the deal.  BlackBerry Bold 9700 for Rs 31,990 BlackBerry's updated Bold remains one of the stars of mobile emailing. It brings a sharper 480x360-pixel screen, snappier menus and ridged keys that are a delight to prod. There’s even a 3.2 MP camera with LED flash for fun outside the boardroom too.
