We’ve been sent a whole heap of information about “self-learning” mobile phone simulators, the friendly, online interactive tools that guide users through the features of phones they’re thinking about buying (or trying to blag).
There are plenty of sims appearing to guide us through today’s BRAIN-BENDINGLY-COMPLEX new smartphones, but the best of the bunch is this interactive showcase of the HTC Legend – which tells you all about the features of the phone and even how to pop open the battery compartment.
Have a go on Vodafone’s super-impressive interactive HTC Legend here…
…or check out a few more self-learning sims below…
A slightly clunky text-based list of the features of the Motorola Dext can be found here…
Tesco’s lovely demo of the holier-than-thou iPhone is super-swish as you might well expect…
O2′s guide for the X10 is here and particularly technically adept…
If you’re wondering what possessed people to buy a T-Mobile Pulse, find out here (you’ll have to navigate to the phone’s page, as linking to individual pages doesn’t work)…
And finally and not particularly “on message” we have a demo Virgin is offering, showing off the “power” of the Nokia 5800. Have fun learning how to set-up POP3 email accounts on the Pulse, everyone…
Motorola’s latest flagship dual-core Android monster is a massive, original powerhouse, that’s a big improvement on previous MOTOBLUR mobiles – but still isn’t a total winner.
A slim and glamorous phone from Sony Ericsson, with the sharpest display around. It’s no powerhouse and the screen’s not the biggest out there, but we don’t mind. Because it’s cute.
LG’s first glasses-free 3D phone is a heavy, fat monster, with a clever 3D effect that works rather well. As a smartphone, though, it’s heavy and underwhelming.
A very shiny thing from Sony Ericsson, with a 3.7″ screen and Android 2.3.3 inside. But is it exciting enough to win fans in today’s spec-obsessed market? Can man live on one core alone?
INQ’s Android phone is an interesting “boutique” piece of hardware, packed with unique interface customisations that go far beyond the headline Facebook integration. We like it a lot.
