U600

Advantages: Very slim and stylish
Disadvantages: Browsing files makes it very slow.

...The Samsung U600 is the slimmest slide phone, even slimmer than the trendy D900 which is now replaced by u600. I bought mine for 85 pounds which is a dark blue colour. It has an amazing 3.2 mega pixel camera if you look how thin the phone is, with flash and 4x digital zoom. If you take a picture of a business card it recognizes all the field and enter them automatically, this is a new feature. It also records videos in mp4 format and the maximum video size is 352 x 240 which is good. It has a 2.2 inch TFT 262k colour screen which has great graphics because I downloaded 'Horton hears a who', converted it into MP4 format and saved it on my phone to see if it works and it worked. The movie has exactly the same size as the phone screen and has very good graphics. I also downloaded a trailer and when I played on my phone it looks...

Digital Ixus 960 IS

Advantages: Image quality, face recognition, viewfinder, ease of use.
Disadvantages: 3.7 zoom, user guide.

...I've just got back from two week's holiday in Crete and Santorini with this camera and I am very impressed with the shots I've taken. I bought the Canon Ixus 960 IS as a solution to taking a digital SLR, plus lenses etc. due to hand luggage restrictions as it easily fits in a pocket. The image quality is pin sharp, focussing exceptional and since I have problems with camera shake due to arthritis I was overjoyed to find that the image-stabiliser technology works really well, except in the very darkest of night shots (taken on the cruise ship's deck). Facial recognition works surprisingly well, even when multiple faces are grouped together. The 3.7x zoom is the only real drawback, but it's a small enough niggle. In use I found it easy to swap between the different shooting modes, using the scene mode for most of my...

Review of Canon Digital IXUS 960 IS

W960i...Bravo, Sony Ericsson!!!

Advantages: touchscreen, walkman player, adjustability
Disadvantages: I've listed a few

... Sony Ericsson W960i One of the newest Sony Ericsson cell phones on the market, a great promise, but what's inside for real - can SE live up to its promise, can't they or do they give even more? I've upgraded to W960i after years of using W800i and a brief Nokia E51 experience. Quick summary The phone takes about a minute to start and you can select among switching on the phone or a flight mode - safe to use the device on board or in hospitals as a music player only. It plays music and video files, allows you to listen to radio and browse the internet, take photos and videos as well as record sounds and keep all your important notes and agenda in one place. It runs on the UIQ 3 system, which is a big change from Symbian, as it's not so intuitive and actually it's rather like a little computer than a cellphone. It...

Samsung U600

Advantages: Looks good, easy to use
Disadvantages: Scratches easily, turns itself off randomly

...I got this phone about 11 months ago on an upgrade with T Mobile. I had no idea what phone I wanted but when I explained the functions that I needed, the Samsung U600 was suggested to me. It is a nice looking phone, grey, small and thin, you can carry it in your pocket without it being too bulky. It is a slide phone with a large screen. The number buttons are under the screen and are displayed when you slide the phone down. The menu and call and hang up buttons are touch screen. To describe some of the features that the phone has- Camera- It has a 3.2 mega pixel camera which is very good quaility, however it annoys me how it takes a while for the camera to capture the picture before it actually takes it. You have to have a steady hand and be patient! It does however have a digital zoom and flash which is handy. The video...

Canon IXUS 960

Advantages: Perfect for Holidays or just general use at home
Disadvantages: Price can be a bit steep

...I'm in no way an expert photographer, but like to take pics whenever I go out and about, and therefor need a quick and easy Camera to use, one that wont give me a problem when a once in a life oppurtunity comes by and you need to take a pic quick! Too many times have i missed an oppurtunity to take a photo because of my camera not working properly of just simply too much of a struggle to switching it on and having it ready! I researched many types of camera's and ended up buying the Canon IXUS 960IS and thus far am impressed! The body work is made of Titanium which is a big plus if you tend to chip or break your camera and the 2.5 inch screen is just right, not too big that it drains the battery and not too small so you cant see it. There are many options on this little camera, including Optical Image Stabilizer (anti...

U600 freeze!

Advantages: Gorgeous, thin, light weight!
Disadvantages: Freezes during texting, turns off and then eventually is coput!

...I loved my U600 when I first got it. It is a very nice looking phone, it is very thin and strong and although I had a case on it, it hardly looked used. However after a few months it started to freeze whilst I was sending text messages. It would switch itself off and restart itself again and so I eventually couldn't send text messages because the phone would switch off every time I tried. It would allow me to make calls but if, like me, you mostly text then this became terribly problematic for me. I was not the only person I know that had had this problem with their U600, infact everybody I know that had one had said that they were experiencing similar problems, even if not as extreme as mine my friends were still experiencing the minor problems that I started with. The phone also had limited memory unless you bought a memory card. I...

Review of Samsung SGH U600 Ultra Edition 10.9

Samsung U600

Advantages: Very reliable and easy to use
Disadvantages: Lack of features and internet access

...Samsung U600 A Samsung U600 is a phone I would strongly recommend to anyone who wants a decent/high quality phone with a fair few number of applications - a reliable phone, where you will, in my opinion get your moneys worth very easily. However, I would say that it is not a phone, that should be used as a buisness phone, or one which would you used all the time, as the battery strength and endurance is not too good. Also, there is a rather limited amount of applications available. There is no satellite navigation or maps available, which for some people can be frustrating. Also, a real negative I have found with this phone, is that the internet services on it, are very poor indeed. Furthermore you cannot search through search engines etc. I would suggest that if you are in need of access to the internet that you do not purchase this...
