Alexander Graham Bell, the inventor of the telephone, would probably have a blast today with so many mobile phones available on the market. New cellular phone models are being rolled out every couple of months or so, such that today’s newest model will seem totally ancient after a year or two. What’s surprising is how consumers are in the know about these new rollouts even before they hit the market. They owe it to the bevy of websites that announce the latest in the mobile world to consumers. Here, we preview some of the best online places to look for the latest in mobile communication technologies.

  1. Mobile Burn. If you’re looking for the latest in the mobile world, whether its new models, company and industry news, or phone deals, you can find it all at Mobile Burn.  You can find consumer reviews of mobile phones, smart phones, and personal digital assistants (PDAs) from major cellular phone brands, including Samsung, Nokia, LF, Motorola, HTC, Palm, Apple, and Sony Ericsson. You can also compare mobile plans from Alltel, AT&T, Sprint Nextel, T-Mobile, and Verizon in terms of minutes, cost, and other features. This will allow you to find the cheapest mobile contract for your needs. Aside from that, Mobile Burn also allows you to shop for mobile phone accessories, unlocked cell phones, and mobile service through its affiliate stores, Smartphone Experts and Simplexity. It’s also affiliated with Deal Alertz, a mobile phone comparison shopping site, where you can find cheap phones.
  2. O2 Mobile. This is the UK’s leading provider of mobile phones, broadband and SIM cards, as it claims to be. Patrons of the site get access to guides and expert reviews of mobile phones. They also get access to exclusive music, sports, and events from O2 as well as exclusive phone deals, sales, and applications. On the site, users can also shop for cheap contract phones under monthly or pay-as-you-go plans. They can also purchase phone insurance and mobile phone accessories. The only downside to the site is that its offerings and promotions are only available to UK consumers.
  3. PhoneArena. This is your one-stop shop for all things related to mobile phones. Users can find news on the latest cell phone models as well as reviews of all that’s available on the market, including Nokia, Samsung, LG, Motorola, Sony Ericsson, and RIMBlackberry phones. In addition, visitors also get the latest juice about mobile phone applications. There is also an online tool that allows users to compare differentmobile phones from different manufacturers. Its Phone Filter feature also allows the user to find the mobile phone that meets all their requirements.

These are just some of the websites where you can find the latest models of mobile phones. If you’re planning to buy one, it’s best that you look at these sites for more information and reviews. You can also choose to go to local cell phone retail stores, although the online world offers much more information than your average sales person can tell.
