The half pint with fly weight, the SonyEricsson T600.
Positive about the Sonyericsson T600: small and extremly light
Negative about the Sonyericsson T600: barely any features
After a shit load of work it was finally achieved, the weak T66 has a successor, the masterpiece of SonyEricsson T600! Constructing a mobile that small and that light really is something to be proud of!
I saw the SonyEricsson T600 the very first time at a technology fair and I do have to say, that I was taken by the tiny thing. Although I didn't visit the fair as a mobile phone specialist, the SonyEricsson T600 did catch my attention in the deluge of mobiles since it barely weighs a thing.
The SonyEricsson T600 may be described as small, light and aesthetic indeed.
The SonyEricsson T600 is designed plain, yet tasteful and elegant. If u touch the SonyEricsson T600 for the first time u'll surely think that something must be missing, since it is so very light. With its 60 g the SonyEricsson T600 does not put too much on the scale and u will keep on thinking that something as light as the SonyEricsson T600 can't possibly work properly. Wrong, that's the way things are supposed to be with modern mobiles, they are supposed to have a minimum weight, however a high quality performance.
It's logical that the battery of the SonyEricsson T600 can't weigh too much. That the battery of the SonyEricsson T600 however has an impressing performance is rather surprising. Entire 5 hours of talk time and a 180 hours stand-by time are covered by the battery of the SonyEricsson T600.
Since the SonyEricsson T600 is so very small, the ease of use of the SonyEricsson T600 is just as small. The keys of the SonyEricsson T600 are too small for a smooth use. Apart from that the user is welcomed by the usual SonyEricsson menu, which is generally known as averagely.
The SonyEricsson T600 is a small multi-talent. The few grams of SonyEricsson T600 cover a broad band of features, which are most suitable for a business use.
Since the SonyEricsson T600 is a TriBand mobile, u can make phone calls with the SonyEricsson T600 from all over the world.
All the features of the SonyEricsson T600 may as well be used on the entire globe, the calendar of the SonyEricsson T600 is especially useful for all those globetrotters.
Sadly the SonyEricsson T600 doesn't have to offer all too much in terms of data transferring. U can only find a modem and a rather ancient WAP-browser in the SonyEricsson T600, no traces whatsoever from GPRS, USB- or IrDA-interface.
The SonyEricsson T600 tries to balance this rather big deficit with its distinct entertainment character. Any kind of messaging is possible with the SonyEricsson T600, let it be SMS, EMS or even MMS. Striking about this, u can even change ringer tones with owners of mobiles from other manufacturers.
There are some games and a ringer tone- /picture editor to be found on the SonyEricsson T600. But that's about it.
The SonyEricsson T600 can't be proud of much more than is tininess, lightness and handiness. It's kinda hard to find a category of mobiles the SonyEricsson T600 would fit in, since the SonyEricsson T600 is neither a business- nor an entertainment mobile. U could define a new "race of mobile phones" for the SonyEricsson T600, maybe the "easy-portable mobile". No matter where u are heading, the SonyEricsson T600 can be taken anywhere. The SonyEricsson T600 even fits into the smallest bag and is even barely felt. The SonyEricsson T600 is ideal for partying if u don't wanna bring a bag, u ladies out there! Nobody would realize the SonyEricsson T600 in your trouser pocket!
