Samsung U600 – Discover In Revel.
By Alice Erin

Building upon its forte of slim mobile phones, Samsung launches its Samsung U600 . The handset is a compact slider device that comes under the banner Samsung's Ultra Edition Range 11, and is just 11mm thick. While the slider mechanism is as smooth as that of any Samsung mobile, the colour scheme is unique and attractive. The device comes wrapped in a bluish colour, exuding a smart impression.

The exterior of Samsung U600 is dominated by a large screen. The screen has a good resolution, meaning viewing of pictures and videos become a real treat to the eyes. Readability is quite good, and the handset also has a sunlight mode to optimize the screen's contrast.

For better operation, two touch sensitive soft keys are provided beneath the screen. These keys are responsive and also have a good tactile feedback. A good looking keypad is revealed once this slider phone is slid open. The keys are not touch sensitive though,
and are a little towards the flat side.

The Samsung U600 comes close with a 3.2 MP camera at the back. The camera is enabled with LED photo light and also auto focus. For social butterflies and busy professionals, the device also has something called the Name Recognition Service. Here, the users can take the picture of business cards and store them in Samsung U600, for future requirements. One is also allowed to edit and customize the pictures clicked.

For musical bonanza, the Samsung U600 comes with a good music player, that is Mp3/ AAC and protected Windows Media files, compatible. The handset also has a FM radio and a Bluetooth headset. Further, the user is also empowered to shuffle or repeat, create Playlists, rate individual tracks, and adjust the equaliser. And for storing, the 60MB of onboard memory is a great help.

Samsung U600 has good battery life and offers versatility in terms of connectivity and network.
