At a glance, you'll see "The Bottom Line" and the specs. You'll also see the price. You can add phones to your list and compare them all at once for ease in making your decision.
What the Reviews Include
For each phone, you'll have a quick overview, which includes the good, the bad, the bottom line, and the specifications. You then get the editor's review, which includes information about the similar phones and a link to that phone so that you may compare. You get an analysis of the technology features the phone has to offer as well as the editor's opinion on whom the phone is most suited for, plus information about the carrier and price.
The Editors' Reviews
The CNET cell phone reviews from the site's editors may include a reception test in their area and include comments about the voice quality on both ends of the call, clarity of sound, and so forth. They then try out accessories with the phones, such as Bluetooth headsets, Bose On-Ear headphones, and more. If there's a camera, you will find out how well the camera performs, in the editor's opinion. In some cases when there is a camera, you'll see a sample picture. Additionally, the editors test the batteries and give you the results of the FCC radiation tests. All in all, the editors' reviews give you just about anything you could possibly want to know.
User Reviews
The number of reviews and quality of reviews in the user section will vary, of course, as all customer reviews do on almost any site. You may find paragraphs of very detailed information, or you may find a short overview. That said, you usually get pros, cons, and a summary from someone who really knows their phone. You also have the option to mark whether a review was helpful and reply to it, too.
Additional Features
If you need a cell phone accessory, CNET can help you find out what it is that will work best for your situation. And CNET's not just for cell phones, so if you're searching for a phone in addition to a laptop, a desktop, a digital camera, a television, or even just an MP3 player, you can find reviews on the same site.
