Sony Xperia S

From the moment you pick it up, it's clear that Sony pulled out all the stops when designing the Xperia S. The phone's curved back felt great in my hand, the lighted strip at the bottom is snazzy, and I love how it stands up on its end. And, yeah, the features are pretty high-end, too. It was the last of the four award finalists and will be sold unlocked in the United States.
