Which is the best smartphone on the market today?

It's a question often asked: which is the best phone on the market? Let's take a look at three possible winners, and find out which is best.
Nokia N900
The Nokia N900 shocked a great many people when it was announced earlier this year, and the main reason for the excitement it's generated is that it's the first ever phone to use the sleek, intuitive Maemo interface, making for a touchscreen experience that is both simple, and entertaining. The Nokia N900 also includes a full, slide-out QWERTY keyboard, so that after you've navigated through the cool menus, actually typing that text message or email is going to easier than ever. Nokia are billing the N900 as a true mobile multimedia computer, a view backed up by the keyboard and incredible interface. However, the Nokia N900 also has its fair share of features to earn that title. You get a 5 megapixel camera for pin-sharp photos, you get a superb multimedia centre, that makes music and movies so compelling. You also get HSDPA internet access, at true broadband speeds, and GPS. Put simply, the Nokia N900 is astounding.



Palm Pre
When it comes to interfaces, one phone beats both of the phones on this list, hands down: the groundbreaking Palm Pre. You see, the Palm Pre is built on an entirely custom interface called WebOS, that is easily the slickest, most intuitive interface that's ever been released. With intuitive gesture controls and finger sweeps for EVERY action on the phone, the Palm Pre also brings in tight integration between its apps. Book a cinema ticket on one app, and the Palm Pre automatically updates your calendar with the time. Multitask many different apps, and watch the Palm Pre run without any effort or lag. In the world of interfaces, basically, the Palm Pre just cannot be beaten!
HTC HD2
So, we have the Nokia N900 with the Maemo interface, and then there's the Palm Pre, which sports WebOS. And then there's the HTC HD2; it holds the record for the biggest screen seen on a mobile phone. At a huge 4.3 inches, it is truly vast, and the high, 800x480 resolution makes it genuinely easy to use things like scrollbars in menus. However, the HTC HD2 actually does a very good job of making it so you don't have to go into standard Windows menus that often, as on top of the operating system, the interface is HTC's patented Sense UI, where everything is achieved through various finger swipes and sweeping gestures. It is truly intuitive, and it (along with the truly awesome 1GHz Snapdragon processor) is the reason why the HTC HD2 is such an unmitigated joy to use. Of course, it's not all about being pretty, a phone needs to have decent features and the HTC HD2 has them in spades, from the 5 megapixel camera, through GPS, to incredibly fast HSDPA internet access (not to mention the superb Opera Mobile web browser), which is why many people see it as the best mobile phone EVER.
