The neoTouch P300 is a smartphone with a slide-out QWERTY keyboard that runs Microsoft’s Windows Phone operating system (OS). As such it’s going up against the likes of the Samsung Omnia Pro and HTC’s impressive Touch Pro2. However, it undercuts both those models in terms of price, so we were keen to see how well it performed.

The P300 feels a lot slimmer and lighter than the rather chunky Omnia Pro, and its design is quite appealing too – the metallic band that runs around the edge of the phone really complements the glossy black finish. Acer has sensibly added a standard headphone jack at the top, next to the mini-USB port and microSD card slot that are hidden behind a plastic flap. However, the overall build quality of the handset doesn’t feel anywhere near as good as that of HTC’s Touch Pro2.

For example, the battery cover is a tad plastiky and the sliding mechanism doesn’t feel as smooth as it does on either the Samsung or HTC models. In addition, the keys are covered in a glossy membrane that makes them feel quite sticky to use. There’s not much travel in each key and the layout is poor too. The keys are arranged over four rows so the number keys are shared with the top row of letters, but worse is the fact that common punctuation marks, such as full stops and commas, have to be accessed via the function key.
