Keep a look at the mobile products like handheld, pdas, smartphones and mobile phones which have been examined by ProtectStar™. Products, which are labeled by an award-logo have been honoured by the "ProtectStar™ Mobile Security AWARD". You can download the relevant test reports as PDF-file:
VERTU Ascent passed all of the test routines with a good result. The test sequences regarding the mobile telephone’s security returned uniformly positive results. The cost-benefit issue is generally somewhat inappropriate in VERTU’s case. VERTU represents prestige items that are intended to appeal to their customers in their esthetic design and excellent workmanship as well as the extraordinary materials used. However, the manufacturer’s rather meager one-year extension to the statutory warranty period is somewhat surprising in view of the manufacturer’s product placement.
The SERENE passed all of the test procedures very successfully. One positive aspect worth mentioning is that all security settings in the SERENE are already activated in the default configuration, a clear indication that Bang & Olufsen and Samsung place high priority on security as much as on design, quality, and usability. The SERENE’s aesthetic design and motor-driven opening mechanism are innovative and eye-catching. There is no other mobile phone on the market that captures so much attention.
The Nokia9500 Communicator has passed the test series with a very positive result. This is an excellently equipped mobile telephone with an integrated organiser fit for everyday use. The good manufacturing quality, long battery life, and modern high-performance technology will especially appeal to business users. The security problem concerning IPv6 should be addressed and remedied as soon as possible.
