Top 10 smartphones with physical keyboards

These 10 smartphones have physical keyboards for serious typing sessions.

T-Mobile MyTouch 4G Slide

The MyTouch 4G Slide has one of the best cameras we've ever tested--and the rest of the phone is pretty amazing as well.

Motorola Cliq 2

The Cliq 2 is an excellent follow-up to the original Cliq with a superb keyboard and some very useful features, but if you take a lot of pictures with your phone, you’ll be disappointed with the mediocre camera.

Motorola XPRT

The XPRT has the features and the keyboard to please any business or IT professional, but its small display will turn off multimedia junkies.

HTC EVO Shift 4G

4G goes mainstream with the HTC EVO Shift, an inexpensive Android smartphone with a full-QWERTY keyboard.

Motorola Droid 4

The Droid 4 is the phone to buy if you are looking for a physical keyboard, though the blurry display leaves some room for improvement.

Research In Motion BlackBerry Bold 9930

The Bold gains a touchscreen, loses a few inches, and rocks an HD camcorder, but these features aren't enough to sway Android and iPhone owners--especially at such a high price.

HTC Status

While the Status might not have the most advanced specs, the software and hardware integration with Facebook is very cool.

HTC Arrive

A decent Windows Phone 7 offering for Sprint customers, but its 4G Android counterpart might be more enticing.

RIM BlackBerry Torch 9810

The BlackBerry Torch 9810 improves on where the original Torch left off, but in specs it remains far behind the competition.

Samsung Replenish

Although you might feel like a better person for buying an ecofriendly phone, the Replenish's specs and features are largely underwhelming.
