While many phones on the market have Facebook functionality, this handset has been specifically designed for not just Facebook, but a large number of other social networking sites.

The INQ 1 (pronounced “Ink One”) will not only let you write on your friends’ Facebook walls as easily as you can on a PC, but it’s also designed for fans of Skype, Last.fm, Windows Live Messenger, eBay, Yahoo! and Google.

If you’re a bit old fashioned and prefer using email to communicate, this handset can also easily access Hotmail, Yahoo! Mail and GMail accounts.

All of these social networking applications are at the very centre of why this phone exists in the first place, and eliminates the need for add-ons which other handsets require before you can access your IM screen.

The idea that the phone’s usability is focused on social networking also means that you can create your own “inbox” where you can collate all of your SMS messages, emails, IM and Skype Chat plus Facebook notifications including the all important pokes and messages.

What social networking phone would be complete without the means to add to your online profile? The INQ1 comes with 3.2 megapixel camera and 1GB microSD expandable memory.

The INQ1 is a 3 handset and is available on their network for £15 per month or on pay as you go for an outlay of £79.99.
