Samsung G600 review
Samsung is consistently pushing the boundaries when it comes to cramming the features into a slim device and the G600 is a testament to its engineering capabilities. It’s definitely worth checking out if you’re looking for a good camera phone.
If there’s one thing Samsung knows how to do really well it’s make very thin phones crammed with lots of features. This time round it has pumped out one with a 5-megapixel camera that’s only 15mm thin — 6mm slimmer than the Nokia N95, the only other 5-megapixel camera phone currently on the market.
Design
The G600 isn’t the most revolutionary-looking handset in the world and sticks very close to Samsung’s traditional slider phone layout. It’s not ugly, but it doesn’t have the wow-factor of slider phones such as the LG Chocolate or Shine.
It comes in a rather tame two-toned grey casing that keeps in line with the Samsung’s generally serious aesthetic — it certainly won’t raise any eyebrows. What will impress you, given its feature set, is how slim it is, measuring a compact 15mm thin.
Features
The G600’s 5-megapixel camera is by far its star feature, which is probably why Samsung decided to keep it nice and safe behind the slide mechanism. You access it by opening the phone and then pressing the dedicated shutter button on the side.
Pressing this shutter button very gently in camera mode activates the autofocus, which takes a bit of getting used to as it’s very sensitive. The camera lets you adjust a variety of settings, including picture size and flash mode.
