D600 or V3i???

bradisace · 03-06-2006, 00:24

Hi I am getting a new phone very soon but am undecided as to which one to get, at the moment its between the Samsung D600 and the V3i.

I currently have a V3 and dont know if to get the v3i because I think I will be bored of it very quick as they are basically the same phone. Also I cant stand my V3 for its speed or lack of it - when navigating around menus or creating a text message the phone struggles sooooooo much to keep up.

On the other hand I am looking into getting a D600 as I am pretty sure that any Samsung is fast for creating texts and navigating around. Also they are very reliable and easy to use. However after reading some reviews on this phone I have had to think twice about getting it because I have read things like - when taking photos there is a delay so in the end you get a blurred photo, photos can not be viewed in full screen - typical samsung, ringtones get increasingly louder instead of just a constant set level - this is annoying to me as I have had phones like this in the past and have hated them for it, and lastly the screen goes totally blank when on standby unlike other phones where the time is displayed.

Any advice on what phone you think I should get would be much appreciated as I am stuck in the middle of them both at the moment. Thanks!!!

Well my mate said exactly the same to me but he doesnt like Motorolas. I take it you own a d600? If so do you have the same problems e.g. ringtones getting louder, screen going off on standby (stated in my first post)?

I would choose the D600 over the V3i for the following reasons:

-Smaller
-Sexier design
-D600 has a 2 Mega Pixel camera over the V3i's 1.3 Mega Pixel camera
-D600 has 72MB phone memory, V3i only has 10MB
-D600 memory cards up to 1GB, V3i can only take up to 512MB
-D600 has dual speakers - 3D sound
-D600 has TV output
-D600 ringtones have 64 channels, the V3i has 24 channels

I would be in doubt of which phone to buy from those two.
