Best Phone Blog

In this world in which stupidity, celebrity, plastic body parts, ignorance and general dissolution are championed, it’s nice to come across something that’s bucking the trend. And no, we’re not talking about some kind of Mormon cult or other freaky god botherers. We’re talking about a phone. The INQ Mini 3G, in fact.

And while at first you might struggle to see the link, we think it’s there for all to see. Proof of which came at the recent 2009 Global Mobile Awards. An award ceremony populated by bloated, sweating executives all hoping that their 12 megapixel / Wi-Fi sporting / AMOLED-screened / obscenely expensive handset would walk away with the coveted Best Mobile Handset award, guess who won? The budget, almost unheard of INQ 1. The first phone, in fact, ever produced by this little company.

So, has the fame gone to their head? Is the INQ Mini 3G some kind of all-singing, all-dancing celebrity of a phone? Far from it. In fact, as you’ll see by giving this INQ 3G Mini review just a brief glance, or by double-taking when you look at how ridiculously cheap these INQ Mini 3G deals are, just the opposite. This is a phone that does nothing at all extraordinary. But in (not) doing so, manages to be a truly fantastic little phone. It’s main selling point is the integrated systems designed to link up to all the social networking and email programs out there, and a new function that lets you synch directly to iTunes.

And fair enough this might not all be for you. But we think that there’s plenty of you out there that this will appeal to. And plenty who might otherwise have been conned into spending more than they need on their next handset. But trust us, there’s no need to spend more than you need. Who knows, the Chat 3G might be exactly what you need, and nothing more.
