The fact is there are not many 5-megapixel camera phones available to the UK at the moment, when you try to think of one, you would probably come up with the latest Nokia N95 or even maybe Sony Ericsson’s soon to arrive K850i. But right now, there is nothing as thin and slick as the Samsung G600?

Have a look at this video:

However there are a few questions which remains unanswered, why doesn’t it have 3G or Wifi but only EDGE? Is that the reason they were able to make it slimmer? Will the G600 have features which allows you to install java applications like the rest of its rivals? And also will it have fixed the problem with its ringtone + vibration during music play by the time it’s launched? Let’s wait and see…

The Samsung G600 is expected to be out in the UK, by the end of August this year.
