The SAMSUNG SGH-X820 Proves that you never can be too thin, the world's thinnest phone sets a new standard for power and elegance, shaming other thin phones. Amazingly, Samsung packs in an MP3 player with stereo Bluetooth support, a 2-megapixel camera, an e-mail client with attachment reader, an EDGE modem, and a pretty good phone into something as thick as a stack of four quarters.

The X820 has a surprisingly loud speakerphone, a powerful vibrating motor, and decent reception. The interface is downright beautiful, the 176-by-220 screen is sharp, and the whopping 80MB of memory even lets you load in a podcast or two. There's no memory card slot, and battery life could be longer. More disappointing is the lack of voice dialling. Still, this standout is worth having to go to independent retailers to pick it up unlocked for $379.

PROS: The thinnest phone in the world. Excellent Bluetooth capabilities. Many powerful functions.

CONS: No memory card slot. Battery life could be better. Sold only through independent retailers.
