Featrues I'd go with the 6600

Looks id go for moto v600.

If its a long term phone id go for the motorola cos its a classic and itll be there for ages

if ur just looking for a temporary phone, then go with 6600, i know theres loads of apps for it but thats just my opinion

If both cost the same, then I would go with the motov600 cos it looks nice, (plus ive got 7610 atm but that shuldnt really count as a point)

The 6600 wins hands down for games, it has the symbian operating system so there are a lot of games around, also it handles java games. The V600 can only handle Java games, but only a limited amount.

The V600's camera is better, and also it has 4x digital zoom compared to the 6600's 2x. The only drawback of the V600's camera is that it does not support the capture of videos although this is not a big deal as the 6600 does not do this so well.

If you are bothered about Bluetooth headsets, the 6600 only supports Handsfree profiles, whereas the V600 supports Handsfree and Headset profiles.

I have first hand experiance of both phones, i like my 6600 more, but my Dad prefers his V600, it just depends what features you want.

I hope this helps,

using it for 1 yr or more? Nokia 6600 definitely. Gaming alot better, expandable memory, u won't get boring.

These both phones use the same type of camera VGA. And also they both got video capabilities. If I were, I'll go with the 6600, also it has an MMC slot, which the V600 doesn't. And because 6600 has symbian while V600 doesn't.

If you really mind the size of 6600 i suggest not getting it.

I have seen it live, and it's not that big. Nope.

Motos definitely have the style :D But it does have the limitation in which one cannot fully utilise BT + Cam to send out the captured image via BT.

Hmm in my personal opinion though bigger I'd go for the N6600 ;) Expandable and yes, Symbian powered!

:p

the 6600.

it has more features and is more versatile than the v600. The v600 does look good though. (and is smaller too).

I think that a phone's "good looks" can fade away after some time of using it, like, after several months or so..... but a phone's versatility or expandability will still be useful.

cheers!
