Samsung U600

The Samsung U600 phone is slim and a nice quality slide action feel, quality buttons, seems reliable and does not look to bad, considering it was free. However the phone is drastically let down by the software. The menus are badly layed out and confusing to navigate. The absolute worst thing about this phone though is the text. It is almost impossible to send a text correctly. The predictive test is terrible. It keeps selecting the wrong words and is not obvious on how to correct them. The whole interface is clunky. However the absolute worst thing is when you try to delete a word (usually because the predictive text has messed up) then nine times out of ten it will delete the entire text. This is so frustrating that you ether stop texting or get a new phone. If the interface on this phone is common across all Samsung phones then I would advise that you avoid all of their phones.

First day i bought this phone i dropped it in a sink of water but it worked perfectly after wards! I have the u6oo black & gold limited edition, touch buttons take a little getting used to i was constantly coming out of the text screen and having to type it all again! could do with more text tone options and the camera takes ages to focus and actualy take the pic! other than thats i love it its very slim and stylish :)

The Samsung U600 is really not a bad phone overall. The design is sleek and sexy, and is a good size and weight. I have to be honest, I haven't had one technical problem with the U600 since I bought it a year ago (even after my son dropped it in the bath!).

My only flaw I think with this phone is the lack of options and features that gives it a little variety. Before the U600 I owned the D900 and between the two phones, there is very little difference in the features and modes etc. Both phones have the same awful black and orange menu screen (the white look is even worse), the same call tones, only a choice of 4 message tones and the same few default picture backgrounds.

Another annoying point is the response speed of some of the modes. Whe taking a picture and press the button, it takes too much time to actually capture the shot. Accessing the memory card is also a mini quest. Just trying to open a folder of images seems like a lifetime.

The major things that have made me keep the phone for so long (this is the longest amount of time I've owned a phone) is the beautiful design, light weight, great battery life and always a strong reception.

I love this Samsung U600 phone. Ive had it for a while now, but dropped it down the toilet today! Hopefully it will work ;( I love everything apart from camera as you have to hold a pose for ages before the phone takes the picture. Awful for taking photos of my dogs. Not sharp

this Samsung U600 phone has caused me the most trouble out of every phone i have ever owned and i have had phones for years.

Chose Samsung U600 because I previously had one of their phones (when I lived in Korea) and was satisfied with it, but am much less happy with this one. Partly the design is less good (I especially have had problems with the touch-sensitive buttons), and partly it's not well adapted to the UK market (the website is typically Korean in style, but is full of bugs and just does not suit a western cultural setting).

I would not recomend the Samsung U600 as it often crashes and i have to take the battery out and put it hard in when i turn it back on which can take a while. I have had it around 6 months but i didnt use it for long i used it for about a month because i never get any signal at all and cannot call out the camera is also awful andvery slow. The sensitive buttons are bad because, i kept calling people without knowing and going onto the internet the phone keeps beeping when i put the charger in and the battery doesnt last long. Memory is quite bad and i would recomend getting a memory card for it. Lots of other people i no also wud not recommend this phone and some of the other samsung phones.

From the start my Samsung U600 would freeze and turn off randomly. It is now less than a year old, however none of the touch screen buttons work. I cannot press call, reject, menu, pretty much all of the important buttons. All I can do is press numbers, which is useless since I cannot press call!!! A tremendous waste of money.

I have the purple one and most of the colour has chipped off to reveal black underneath. I believe that purple is the only one that does this since it is a more metallic colour than the other colours and it seems to chip easily.

Samsung U600 looks good & easy to carry ... that's it!

The screen on my first U600 started failing - negative image, reversed image, distorted image, or no image at all, making it impossible to use. You couldn't see who was calling in, text or make calls. My replacement U600 is going exactly the same way after 4 months. The only thing stopping me from returning this one is that my contract runs out in 2 months and I can't wait to replace it! hasn't put me off Samsung ... just sliders.

This Samsung U600 phone was free as part of my contract and I love it. It was an upgrade from a motorola, which was appalling, and I have had it over a year without any problems. However, I have found that predictive text does tend to freeze, but I don't use it anyway. The only real problem I have had with the touch buttoms is when I threw it into my locker before entering an two-hour-long exam. When I came back, it had switched on to the internet, which isn't part of my contract. My parents were not pleased with the extra money (nearly £20). Now I make sure I turn it off. The camera is slow, but I use another phone most photos for that and bluetooth it over.

I have dropped my phone so much, and it isn't too scratched. The biggest scratch is from when the dog picked it up and chewed it! However, the screen is difficult to keep clean.
