The handset is compact & slim which only measures 113 mm x 59 mm x 11.8 mm & the phone weighs 99 grams which is lightweight when considering all the built in technologies of the Samsung smartphone.

The phone goes into a hanging state every now & then. The OS is still running but cannot make or receive calls. Only reboot fix this. I also found that if I have a feeling that it is not working anymore & I go to Band Selection, then it gives me an info message Unable to get band selection. Then I have no choice but to reboot. With this I am missing a lot of calls & receiving whole bunch of voice messages after the reboot.

THIS IS a rubbish MOBILE. AUDIO QUALITY IS rubbish.

IT'S GOOD FOR Wi-Fi & Internet BROADBAND CONNECTIONS BUT WILL DRAIN the BATTERY FAST.

I THINK IT MAY BE USEFUL JUST FOR PEOPLE THAT don't TALK MUCH & USE A LOT OF EMAIL OR CONNECTION THROUGHT LAPTOP.

BUT IF YOU ARE TALKING don't EVER BUY THIS KIND OF SAMSUNG MOBILE.

I HAD TO COME BACK TO MY OLD MODEL BECAUSE PEOPLE JUST DIDN'T UNDERSTOOD ME, I ALSO HEAR PEOPLE WITH VERY BAD QUALITY, LIKE BEING IN A BOX.

IT COSTED ME 250 EURO.

To Reviewer Raymondt From Gauteng, South Africa dated 5th Sep 2007.

It however is not upgradeable to Windows Mobile 6.

In reply to this statement, this phone can & has been upgraded to WM6. I got this phone recently & wondered the same. I have successfully done it. Though due to the South Africa version being slightly different you have to go through a ROM flash twice to achieve WM6. First to a European Rom then to the WM6 ROM.

I am my opinion, the phone is cool. It works well, & when 3G HSDPA is turned off the battery life is great!

It shocked me when I am seeing the negative comments about how troublesome the i600 would be.

I am buying this phone & loving it since day one. When I am receiving the phone, I've tested it anyway I can. I really push the phone for multi tasking. After few software (5 to 7) opened, the phone slows down. It's understandable considering the small size & the limited memory the phone have. (Hey, if you want to edit images, video etc. Get a laptop). BUT it only slows down, not going into state of hang, after I clear the entire task manager, voila. We're back in business baby.

It really does have all the tools I need, like push email, video call, camera, MMS, sms, a tons of tools. All work hassle free. Well. At least if YOU know how. He he he. Don't blame the phone.

The product quality speaks for itself. Well done Samsung. Cheers!

Best mobile phone if you want to have small laptop with wireless communication: open MS Office documents, Internet Explorer, synchronization with mail & appointments with Outlook, 54Mbps network. Fastest Wi-Fi for phone & best sms or email keyboard ever. You can download new Windows Mobile 6 & updates from Microsoft for free. Windows media player can play movies & MP3. Great sound & clear big screen. 1, 3 Mpx camera. I love this phone.

For normal users who call & send sms/MMS this phone is probably too much. For experienced user who wants all from one phone in nice package & MUCH cheaper than iPhone it's the best.

I have to give a poor usability note, because this phone has a very poor battery. Although I have a set of two batteries, plus an external charger, most of the time it is not enough for a day use. Ex: I changed for a fresh battery today at 12PM & it ran flat at 02 AM, & I didn't use the phone at all. It has been always in standby.

I waited ages for the Samsung i600 & when it arrived I had a bit of hassle setting up email. I phoned Vodafone who at that time weren't selling it (don't know if they are yet) & they told me to contact Samsung.

The guy on the Samsung help desk told me it was a Windows problem & to contact Microsoft! By the way, if you're reading this Samsung Help desk Guy you'd be better employed running a hot dog stand, because the phrase totally useless doesn't even come close where you're concerned. I never did get my email up & running. I binned it & got a Nokia N95 which is way ahead of the i600.

The i600 is a cool phone. It however is not upgradeable to Windows Mobile 6 & it has been stripped down from its international released i600. E.g. Voice command. It also has a niche of hanging-up on receipt of another call & you cannot look-up a number whiles a person is holding. Its international release can be bought for $99.00 as appose to R3'700.00 here in South Africa. I am pretty hacked off at Samsung for its blunt poor service & support. I am selling my i600.

I received my phone Sunday & couldn't put it down since then.

I love the futures!

Only problem I have is that when I get an sms or Text message & use a song or long tune as the ring tone the phone won't stop the song & the vibrating even though I have read the whole message. No matter what I do it won't stop until it has played the whole song.

Is this just the way it is or is there a setting I missed somewhere?

Otherwise brilliant phone.

I ignored all the bad reviews & bought it & now wish I hadn't. The battery is bad & the manufacturer knows it, that's why it comes with a separate battery with a separate battery charger. An easy guess!

The operating system is slow. You don't get to where you want to get as quick as you would like. It's like operating windows vista on a machine that run on 126MB memory. Ssslllooowww!

I could go on but those two were more than enough to put me off so I am returning it!

For a handset with such high specs & good looks I was totally this-pleased with it.

The main problems for me were:

- Very poor battery life.

- Push e-mail didn't work.

- Wi-Fi had issues.

I have now bought a Sony Ericsson P1 & in my honest advice, the P1 is a MUCH I stress MUCH better.

Got the phone a couple of days ago & I have managed to master most of the functions even though the printed manual is a bit short on information.

Surfed the web via 3G. Set up & connected to GMail-mobile. Connected to my home wi-fi network & surfed the web (cheaper than 3G). Added a 2GB SD card & put tons of music on it & use it with the Plantronics 590A Bluetooth Headset, awesome quality & loads of volume.

I miss the Microsoft Office suite that I had on my I-Mate, but you can't have everything :-). Got 2 batteries with the phone, charged them up for 24 hours before use & I am getting good life span with them.

I cannot find a decent cover to protect the unit from scratches etc. All in all, very impressed.

This phone is pathetic, it looks great, has fantastic features but the main feature (the phone) works really badly. I always loose coverage with this phone & it doesn't automatically get it back, you have to switch it off & then back on again (so annoying) the battery is also useless. I'll have to back to using Nokia.

Well what can I say? I bought it & had it for one day. I returned it the other. Why? Well, let's just say the phone lived a life of its own. Hopefully, after they reload the software then it'll work fine. The not so fun part is that I got late for work because a 'device.exe' failed. I have to note that I turned the phone off for the night for it not to crash (just in case). Somehow the phone managed to crash while being turned off, beats me.

Overall, the Samsung scroll card menu or whatever they call it is very nice. Hadn't heard the music quality & hadn't even seen a video. In Poland the phone came with two batteries, a regular & an extended life. I managed to load mine only once.

Good phone overall & the opinions apart from mine seem pleasing. Luckily I got mine on a 24 month warranty program. Yikes, I am afraid the thought of buying a Smartphone without a warranty program just scares me.

No 2 megapixel camera, no autofocus no flash. Screen seems a bit too small. Call quality was average. My callers had trouble hearing what I was saying & at moments I had trouble hearing them. The loud speaker is I must agree - weak. I concurrently own a SE K800i & the speaker is much louder & clearer. Yes, it's a pain to get used to but (probably) after you do it's much more comfy. Oh yeah what's up with applications that keep running after you actually stop using them? The task manager is indispensible. Great tool for communication, wonder how media playback will be? Good luck.

The design is great & it is an OK phone with all the features you can except, from a phone.

Its product targeted at business users, who might want to use it, as you do with these products, to send/receive e-mail, edit/write documents. Here the i600 is out of its league completely, I would even go as far as saying that maybe Samsung does not lie in their publicity but they do 'gloss' over some important things.

You can 'view' Word documents & Excel spreadsheets, that's it! You can't edit them or create them (unless you buy additional 3d party software), a bit of a surprise when you have used Qtek 9100, etc before. I asked before buying it, does it have spell-check (like they usually do in this category), the answer was yes. FALSE - it has a strangely designed T9-function, not quite the same thing when it comes to writing a text.

This is a fantastic phone. Used to have an IMate SP5 so this was a natural choice for me. All my software loaded perfectly. Co pilot 6 works a dream. Very cool design for people in the know. This is the way forward. One critism is that it could be a little smaller in line with the next Motorola Q9. There is always something round the corner with Windows phones.

Best on the market at present though.

Looks fantastic, very sleek & stylish. QWERTY keyboard is a bit annoying in that you can't make out the letters & numbers very well, the lights turns off too quickly. There are plenty of features which are brilliant, love the camera & the ability to take action photos etc.

The major fault is that even on Orange, the reception is useless. The same chip in a Nokia phone receives much better in the same areas.
