My cousin is looking for a 'cheap' 3G fone . . . I think she'll END up with only these 2 units: K600 and the K608i Pros and Cons please . . . Thanks! [addsig]

K600 has a better frontcover and look, but crap keypad, 608 isnt that good looking and full plastic, but comfortable keypad imo

The best combination would be 600 with 608 keypad and cam lense slider of v version. If u take both in your hands u ll get what i mean. 608 isnt just made of plastic, it looks like plastic and thatswhy cheap imo. K600 looks more t610 at least at the frontcover and the black middle apart makes it more elegant.

@boba - Looks like branded ones just ADDs a little cosmetics on the cover to be more appealing How I wish we just live in the same place, so theprospective buyer can SEE your unit. BTW, why are you selling it Boba Looks like it has some NICE features, minus the 31 MB memory space [addsig]

Dont wish to go off topic,just allowed myself a bit advertisement. Anyway, the most disturbing at 600 is the keypad, its at the same level as the cover, at least 2mm higher would be much better at usage. But the joy is metallic on 600, on 608 its just plastic.

@boba - Why OFF-TOPIC mate . . . your 2nd to the last post was just APPROPRIATE to this thread as we are discussing about the K6 fone dude, and it so happened that you are selling yours and I won't be getting it . . .

Now, tell me the reason why youare selling your K6 so that I can tell the buyer the disadvantages of it if there is mate. I can be contented with it's 1 MP cam, does it have a radio:???: Also, who do you think GIVES better quality images, the K608i or the S700i? Thanks! [addsig]

K608 has both radio and a 1.3mp camera... It actually gives quite nice pictures. About the K600 keypad, you say its at the same level but should be 2mm above, my Z800 has the keys below the level of the case and i dont find it annoying

@rekoil - Thanks! But how about it's MEMORY Can you say then the the image quality captured from it's cam is comparable to that of the S700i, both is 1.3 MP I think [addsig]

Sorry jn, i mentioned in case u would be interested, it was a sign for using pm if it is... Cam quality isnt that good imo and the limited memory is a joke. Why isnt this fone worth for a k750i solution? 2mp cam, expandeable mem etc and why that weird usb slot, if at any other se models the cable can be used at the bottom connector? Weird. Btw the screen small for video calls aswell.

I am using now k6,joy is ok,but i hate not to feel the keypad with my fingers,so i have to click with my nails and thats very uncomforteable. I am a thick guy, it hurts to to push the keys after short time. T610 kdypad would be great in k6.
