            This G600 is a 3G phone! Can't you see a secondary camera for video calling in the picture?

            Actually, and honestly Nokia are way behind. Do you know why Nokia has got the most share in the market? Because Nokia makes a lot of low-end phones that most people can afford. Samsung must be the best in technology and premium (high-end) phone market.

                  i always believe samsung tech is the best,sony sucks with it's vaio n some software problems so i wont interest that much with sonyericsson,nokia doesn't have experiences in photography,just use carl zeiss as gimmick

                    lol!!! have you even held or used an n95!! essor your a joke, your just repeating what everybody else who hasnt owned an N95 is saying! this samsung phone will be a disappointment because the battery will follow suit for samsung and last about 1 day and it doesnt do anywhere near what the N95 does so you cant fairly compare them unless you hav no concept of reality!!

                      G600 has also dual mode bluetooth feature in which you can connect to two stereo bluetooth headset simultaneously. You and your partner can listen to the same music. What about that ugly N95 fans?

                        Samsung announced a new 5-megapixel which will come as the hi-end cameraphone of the manufacturer. The SGH-G600 is a GSM which will first ship in European region. As it is a slider and is only 0.58” (14.9mm) thick, Samsung claim it to be the world’s thinnest in its class.

                        Being quad-band GSM it will be usable world-wide, but featuring only 2100 MHz UMTS band will keep the 3G capabilities for Europe/Asia only. It has 2.3” QVGA (240x320 pixels) display, stereo Bluetooth v2, microSD slot for memory expansion, music player and FM radio.

                          it's 3G..you can see clearly the second camera for the 3G in the picture


                          anyway..
                          Samsung is the best...and 5MP not strange for this company...
                          it's ready for 10MP or maybe more...who know?
                          wait for more from Samsung

                            Dear GSM Arena, the Samsung G600 is NOT a 3G phone! I have visited the official Samsung site and it's GPRS only. Very sad but at least the battery will last longer. Then again, my old Sony Ericsson V600i is 3G and lasts ages.

                                Do you really think n95 is not ugly? Or, do you even think that n95 is even sexy? OMG, OMG

                                I'm buying this G600.

                                  You guys are funny. You're arguing about the N95 in the Samsung section. Go talk about it in the N95 area you geniuses!

                                  And if you must talk about the N95 plaese don’t talk about it unless you've actually HELD IT IN YOUR HANDS!!! It is actually quite different in person (and not in a good way). The phone is not particularly big but because of the design it FEELS like its really big hence why people think it's ugly. It's short and wide which gives the illusion that its bulkier than normal but when compared to phones like the K800i its not that much bigger. The other major problem with it is the plastic they constructed it out of. The slider mechanism makes noise and doesn’t feel very sturdy. Obviously, this is all subjective. Everyone will have their own opinion. Some people even prefer having a shorter device but let’s not be children and insult others for their personal preferences ok?

                                  And on a side note there is no other phone out there currently or announced including the Samsung here that can do everything the N95 can. So if you want all those features this is the only game in town so no sense in complaining. This phone is more about practicality over aesthetics. I personally like the K850 over these two simply because I don’t need wi-fi, gps, etc that’s in the N95 and I have never cared for the response times of Samsungs UI many units have problems with shutter lag(which I cant stand). But you don’t hear me preaching that the K850 is the best phone do you? Why? Because I’m intelligent enough to know that everyone looks for different things when buying a phone. Please grow up as this space is here for us to appreciate and express excitement for these devices not to tear each other down. We have politicians and governments to do that for us…(but lets not open up that bag of worms :P)

                                      Hey go to that link. Then scroll across the the left side. until you see a trolley in the middle. Highlight it and it should say "Promo video" (its the 2nd trolley)

                                      It shows you a video of the phone. Its amazing!

                                        Wow...lol. I musta hit a little too close to home. As far as styling goes, the Samsung phone is a good looking phone. I have owned several Samsungs in the past, and I find them to be cheaply made.

                                        Now if the 6500 Slider was made by some other company...then no matter, I would buy it. Just so happens it's made by Nokia. Sorry to disappoint, but I don't get jealous over inanimate objects.

                                        i like the calling me a F A G though.....very original. Did you come up with that all by yourself?? If you did, good job!!!!!
