Motorola MS600 RAZR Z
Status
unknown 9th February 2006
Don't get too excited.. the Motorola
MS600 RAZR Z is a CDMA device, not a GSM device, aimed
at the Korean market. The MS600 RAZR Z is interesting
though, because it's a rare Motorola sliding phone and
it's quite possible that we'll see a GSM version sometime
during 2006.
At 14.8mm thick, the MS600 is one of
the slimmest sliders anywhere, but not by much.. the
Samsung
D820 is only 0.1mm thicker. There's a QVGA (240x320
pixel) display in 262,000 colours, a 1.3 megapixel digital
camera, 128Mb of internal memory and an MP3 player.
At 110 grams and 104x51x14.8mm overall,
the MS600 RAZR R isn't as light or as compact as some
sliders, and it doesn't appear to come with any expandable
memory (although we could be wrong).
There's been quite a bit of fuss about
this handset in some sections of the mobile phone press,
but ultimately this handset is pretty dull. All of the
features in the MS600 RAZR Z are widely available in
GSM phones and have been for some time. However, this
handset (and its sibling, the MS550) show that perhaps
Motorola will move into the slider market, currently
dominated by Samsung and more recently Nokia. Will we
see this handset for GSM networks? Perhaps we'll hear
something soon.
