I must admit, I was sad to see my D600 get sold as it did seem very capable compared to my wifes D500.
Unfortunately she wouldn't swap the D500 for the D600

Well done Samsung.
The D600 is without a doubt a very well designed piece of kit. As nice as it is I prefer the D500's form. The only real niggle other than the lack of autofocus for me would be the position of the camera lens. I'm sure in time I could get used to it but when having a play with one I found my fingers getting in the way when trying to take a picture. Obviously not enough of a problem with the judges.
Nokia win best camera phone, suppose they had to give them something. I know they are close in terms of performance but i would have said that

just pipped the post here !
Still, best 3G,and music phone is pretty good not to mention winning manufacturer of the year. Go

go

I've looked at the picture comparisons between the K750i/W800i and the Nokia N90 and it's clear that SE's pictures are far better.
And as for the Samsung D600 it definately did not deserve to win 'handset of the year' (not saying that the K750i/W800i should- what the heck, course it should!

). I held the dummy version of the D600 in a Phones4U Shop and it looks ugly and feels tacky (the Samsung D500 looks way more sophisticated with fine lines, as opposed to the curvy round look the D600 has got goin on)
And apart from the looks, the camera doesn't even have auto focus!!!
