Neither, their both awful.
G600 is somewhat better than the G800 in my books, apart from the optical zoom and Xenon flash.
The menus on the G600 are similar to those on the new U900 and are very sleek and smooth, and the phones far far smaller. With the G800 or Viewty for that matter, size does not equal more functions. Especially when other phones that size chuck in GPS and WiFi too.
N82 or N95 8GB if you want all singing all dancing really.

Looks or features, you need to make a choice.
If your concered about looks, have you actually LOOKED at a real G800?
It's big, heavy, impractical, it's size vs features is a joke, and it's the same size as an N95 with hardly as many features.

Comes down to looks for me to be honest. Weight is not a big deal, and to be honest size is not a big deal for me at all, just appearance.
Looks nice to be to be honest. And yeah the n95 is good, but after having a N series phone (n73) an n95 is just an upgraded version of it. I want a new interface.

Well, the G800 uses the same one from the D900i and E900 within reason.
Ironically the G600 has the new, slick, cool interface thats far far better really.
Seriously, go play with a G800. We've had 8 of them sitting gathering dust in our stock room since launch, and with good reason. It's a turd lol.

Can you recommend a phone that does not look like a normal phone ( i mean a typical chocolate bar type mobile phone) that has a sharp screen with maybe a colourful interface? To be honest I am not too bothered about specs, appearance is all that matters for me (within reason)..

My friend has a W910i, I quite like the screen and stuff on that, colourful, very sharp and bright!
And what about the sony ericsson p1i, i quite like that.

If it's just appearance and not features, then any of them will be fine, just down to what you like the look of. But if your at all style concious, the G800 will have a heavy impact on that, pun intended
If your call, go into your local phone shop and have a look. But, bear in mind, practicality is often badly sacrificied in good looking phones. Personally I don't like the look of the G800 due to it's size, but you like it, so it makes me hard to recommend one.
Go look, go play, best advice I can give really. Especially if you don't care about features.
