CNET Reviews:�

The good: The NEC N908 is a credit card-size phone that’s stylish and elegant. It has a beautiful 2.2-inch touch screen interface, and its features include a 1.3-megapixel camera, a camcorder, and an MP3 player. It has great audio quality and call performance as well.

The bad: The NEC N908’s touch screen interface can take acclimation. You have to remove the battery to access the microSD card slot, and the N908 also does not have a speakerphone.

The bottom line: The NEC N908 is a beautiful design-centric phone with a luscious touch screen interface. Dialing and texting were a bit difficult due to the lack of a keypad, so it’s not a phone for everyone. But those who love compact and uniquely beautiful handsets will not be disappointed.
