General Comments

If you're looking for an honest review of the Samsung E600 then dont miss this one. I have had my phone for 4 months so I know everything about it. I love my phone to bits everyone is always saying how cute it is and this is one of its best qualities. It fits so many things into its small size. It has a great quality VGA camera which is capable of taking videos. The videos are great quality but they can only be a maximum of about 30 seconds and cannot be sent to anyone. The photos what you take are all saved into one folder (which can be password protected along with MMS messages, videos, wallpapers, ringtones,etc.) which means that you have to flip through hundreds of them when looking for a certain picture. In super fine resolution I have saved about 56 pictures before it says "full" but even in economy mode the quality beats my 7250i by miles. Then I'm sure you could save hundreds. You can also take photos in many effect modes such as negative, black and white, etc. The phones two 65K screens (one on front and the other inside) are great quality. It makes brings up the callers photo and name in great quality but the wallpaper on the front screen cannot have one of your photos on it. The front screen can also be used with the camera and the side buttons become zoom and brightness settings. The ringtones are great quality and sound amazing but the preset ones aren't even worth talking about. There is a nature one which would make you want to throw the phone out the window if it rang on the bus!!! If you download your own ringtones from the Samsung fun club site then you get free ones after registering. Many of them have voices and I have saved loads. It accepts Nokia Midi ringtones too which sound a million times better on the e600.

Now though I'm gonna be a bit negative because the text messaging will make you want to run head first at a brick wall if you're in a hurry replying to a text. You might as well send it in the post it would be quicker! Firstly it starts off in T9 mode which is the dictionary (pointless invention) and it also starts in capitals which drives you mad. However after about 3 months I began to just use the dictionary and capital letters because it's too much of a faf otherwise. One bad thing about my phone in particular is that it keeps displaying "LIMITED SERVICE" which is very annoying and potentially dangerous. It stops the phone from receiving or making calls/ text messages, etc which could be bad in an emergency. Don't worry though I think this is just a problem on my phone. Overall I cannot fault it but if they changed the texting then Samsung would be onto a winner but it is the same on every Samsung I have seen. It beats the E700 by miles because that don't even have video and is a lot more expensive and is bigger. Buy this phone and you will not be sorry!!! I hope you found this review useful. Sorry it is so long!!!
