Other features include Bluetooth 2, supporting A2DP, which is the current standard for Bluetooth stereo audio; a 3.0 Megapixel camera; and a Micro SD slot inside the phone, which inconveniently requires the battery to be removed.
Overall, the KF600 is a very usable phone. I recently used it for a week, and found it the most pleasurable I've used. The phone has excellent build quality with incredibly satisfying feedback from the sliding mechanism.
The touch screen was very informative, and took just the right amount of pressure to make it function, but a worry was that the soft plastic used for the touch screen was used for the rest of the screen as well. One great function was when images are being reviewed, the touch screen displays a thumbnail of the image, allowing speedy navigation across it whilst zoomed in...
The physical keyboard was very well spaced with good feedback from the key presses, but lacked spaces between keys. The screen doesn't cope brilliantly with bright sunlight, but this is the case with most phones.
The call quality is very clear, and the phone locks the touch screen whilst in a call to avoid accidental disconnection.
Limitations
This phone is not a smartphone, and neither does it try to be. It is ideally suited to a corporate market with its smart, sophisticated looks and build quality to match. This does mean that features such as 3G are missing, and other disappointments are the lack of a 3.5mm jack socket for headphones.
