all of the phones should have been tested in every category for a fairer test rather than eliminating phones that might have done better than others in different categories. disappointed as was interested in how the torch would do in the photo/ video tests.

I think both male and female presenters should carry out each test. I noticed that Pollyanna had long nails that made texting difficult. This makes her result's unfair because most people do not have long nails. Tests should reflect how 'most' people are going to cope with the gadget.

The show is in danger of losing credibility by being so predictable.

I think you are all reading too much into what is in essence a light hearted approach to review technology. There is never enough time to review each aspect of technology for every model. The presenters pick up on one or two things about each manufacturer. With technology there is never one right answer there are several. You pay your money, you take your choice. Blackberry make a great business solution - Apple make a great consumer solution. Put your requirements down and do your own evaluation - thats where the fun is. The Gadget show just trys to highlight the current market place of technology. Enjoy it for what it is.

Seriously.... SERIOUSLY!!!!! Sorry but I know the tests are a bit of fun but the blatant Apple love is becoming a bit sickening. I mean c'mon Pollyanna couldn't decide on a dress... really. If anyone ever thought anything other than the iPhone 4 was going to be allowed to win they are mental. Same thing with the MP3 player, The Sansa Clip+ v the Ipod Nano. Are you having a laugh. The Sansa Clip+'s main competitor at it's price point is the shuffle, in which the Sansa wins hands down. The Nano should have been up against the Sansa Fuze. Of course you need to be sure of that Apple win, don't you?

If you want a fair test Gadget show should give me the latest iPhone and the latest top spec HTC android for a week each and let me keep the one I feel works best. As a Deacon my phone is very important and needs to do a lot of different jobs so this would be a good test. :D

Don't moan the iPhone was the best. I know you're all against TGS for loving apple products, but the thing is, THEY'RE THE BEST!!!!
