Number 08: Motorola Cliq
The Cliq was announced a few weeks before CTIA, and we saw a lot of this intriguing handset at the show. While I used the Cliq only briefly, I already knew that I liked its design best out of all the Android phones. Like the Samsung Moment, it has a keyboard and a touchscreen. A physical keyboard is necessary, as the native touch keyboard on the current version of Android is far from perfect (as we found out in our review of the T-Mobile myTouch and the HTC Hero). I got some more hands-on time with the Cliq at CTIA and loved the keyboard’s ergonomics and bubble-like keys.
The Motorola Cliq will also be the first phone to showcase MOTOBLUR, Motorola’s skin for Android. In my quick hands-on tests, I found the MOTOBLUR interface to be clean, intuitive, and responsive. MOTOBLUR has a lot of cool features, such as a Happenings widget that gives you instant access to your social networks from the home screen. It also aggregates all your contacts and their information from various sources and displays them in one seamless client.

iphone as 1 and 2? lol apple fanboy
the iphone failed hard with its antenna which needs an accessory to use it for it main purpose, a phone.
the iphone, blackberry and omnia are useless. the only non android phone that deserves to be on the list is the palm pre. the nokia n900 should be added too.
That’s Bull SHIT …crappy top 10 () btw even Nokia 5230 is better tan iphone 3gs

Samsung Moment or Samsung Omnia are the ones from which I need to choose from. I feel Omnnia seems to be a better choice…
Samsung mobiles like Samsung Omnia II awesome mobile.
Very nice article…..but my personal opinion is iphone is very good phone gadget….:)
REAL CRAPY TOP 10.. where is the Nokia N900????
Same CPU has the iPhone 3GS and it has 32GB internal memory, Flash, USB transfer, Multitasking…
@AmilCar…..lol. You are insane. I had both N900 and iPhone 3GS. There is no comparison what so ever. Having processor is one thing but how about apps, display and smooth navigation.
On a side note, I think that the list is pretty good.
err, this list is US-based. im pretty sure the rest of asia/pacific/mideast got different top 10′s as well
Hey,why N8 is not here.It not fair.
not bad samsung mobiles let’s a try top 10 mobile’s
samsung 3g mobiles are extremely newupbroinging features and latest qualities
both the iphones are crap…….. motorola droid or google nexus is the best…..
Are you insane. Whole world knows that Galaxy S series beat the shit out of every mobile in 2010 and that is not even in the list. Even iPhone 4 is lagging behind the sale of galaxy and all operators throughout the world are preferring Samsung over apple because of shitty non customizable iOS.
i like samsung touch series
I thuink LG GT540 OPTIMUS is also good phone
my nokia n900 is a lot best than those….

The top 10 is a crap. Of course apple should be on top because its a us-based products and they are in favor of their apple product be the no.1. Just like apple and microsoft. They are murdering the windows in fact its the os that is totally used all around the globe even in the very poor countries and places. Therefore the same with that apple does not deserve on top. Galaxy-s wipe them all out. and next year maybe the sony erricson and windows phone will burried that apple phone down.
Dying to buy this phone…hopefully i can have it before this month end…really outrageous!
i think iphone still the best
