While every man and his dog seems to be bringing out a smartphone at the moment, several devices stand out from the crowd. Here silicon.com rounds up the current crop of smartphone heavy-hitters - starting with Apple's iPhone 3G S, still the device all other manufacturers look to beat.

Apple's latest is known as the 3G S, with the S standing for speed, in the shape of a faster processor. It also has a better camera (3MP), a video recorder, a digital compass and even an anti-fingerprint coating on the screen for maximum shine.
