I bought this mobile on the basis that it was shiny and new primarily (yes I know I am shallow) but I have since been very impressed with the features, ease of use and quality.
I normally use a mobile to only telephone people with and the Samsung SGH U600 does that with ease. Reception coverage has been flawless everywhere from Southend up to Derby. However I have found myself using the other features more and more.
I like the simple way it handles text messaging ( I don't bother with grammer/punctuation but do spell words correctly). I work away from home a lot and have found that the radio function is really useful with excellent reception everywhere I have found myself. It saves having to take another gadget with me as well. Likewise I have found the music player excellent also. (I did buy a 2 gig memory card to cope with all my music). Again this has saved me having to take my ipod and all the cables and charger etc. I have also used the sound recorder to good effect.
I have not used any internet or java functions to date.
All in all this 'phone has been a real delight providing far more functionality than I had ever planned. It looks good and the quality of the build is impressive. I reckon it is one of the best slider mobiles around.
