Samsung G600 review: Slide and snap

Samsung sets two contenders running for glory, with two 5 megapixel newcomers on the cameraphone market. The Samsung G600 was first to be announced, and had the mobile community astir. Featuring quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE support, a...

Stylish design ; 5 megapixel autofocus camera with LED flash and VGA video recording ; 16M color TFT display of QVGA (320x240 pixels) resolution ; Ambient light sensor for automatic brightness control ; Bluetooth with A2DP ; microSD memory card slot ;...

How about a brief look back though, before we go? You know, a little bit of context won't hurt. Samsung D900 proved quite a gifted contender in the 3 megapixel shootouts we did in the past. In fact, it even got our recommendation as the best...

SAMSUNG SGHG600 review | cellphone prices in php | cellphones | www.CgeNa.com

In a nutshell, G600 is a fabulous phone, combining design, superb camera and a fully featured music player that is really effortless.

We say it's a slider phone that is pleasant to use with great touches. True to its promises, the 5-megapixel camera produced high quality results. There are a few minor points for improvement though; we'd like to see the camera perform better in low...

Nokia N95, Samsung G600 and Sony Ericsson K850 Camera Comparison

We put the three 5-megapixel cameraphones next to each other and to a digital camera, took total of 157 images in different conditions, to see which is best. All feature auto-focus and various options, but which one will be best overall? See and decide!

Samsung G600 Cell Phone

This is probably the cheapest 5mp camera-phone that one can have. Here are its strength:1. slim and compact. It is heavy than it appears. The built quality is top notch, as is the material used. The sliding motion and mechanism is best in the world.2....

Compact, awesome sliding mechanism, easy to use, highly customizable, firmware can be modified.

photo quality does not stand up to Nokia or Sony 5mp camera's, shuttle lag, bluetooth connection affected by sliding customization, display suffers under sun light, and no voice dial.
