Unboxing the Glofiish X600 and X800


Time for an unboxing! In fact, make that two unboxings - one of the Glofiish X600 and one of the Glofiish X800. Each packs quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE support, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, an FM radio, a camera, a microSD slot, and Windows Mobile 6 Professional. The X800 packs a little more, though: tri-band UMTS/HSDPA support, a faster CPU, more ROM, and a VGA (480 x 640) touch screen.
But enough small talk. Jump the break for more pictures and stay tuned for comprehensive reviews of both devices.

I thought the X800 had a keyboard. Do you have any pictures of it?

The X800 is the version without the keyboard.
The M800 is the version with the keyboard.
I like that the X800 looks fairly slim in the pictures. With so much hardware inside, it could easily be quite fat.

thanks, Julio. I realized that soon after I posted the comment. The model numbers between products are very similar, and I have accidentally and unintentioinally confusing the M and X lines.
However, thanks for the help!

If I remember correctly, the Q800 (and M800) have a 256MB ROM but only 64MB RAM. It still stuns me that that would do this - make such a feature jammed phone, but still leave off such a critical difference, going with 64 instead of 128 MB RAM. I swear, these companies do this on purpose, refusing to make an "ultimate" phone, maybe hoping people will keep buying and trying new phones instead of settling on one "ultimate" phone.

no offense , but it's the very first time , a company , directly related to us , through selling end products , is not responsible for Limited ( and not too low) RAM , it's Samsung's CPUs , which makes it impossible to have 128 mb RAM on them , and the 256 mb ROM is also it's highest available . since Samsung CPUs are multilayered , and come all in one , there wasn't anything they could do.
i own a x800 , a very happy user, sure it won't beat Dell Axim x51v in speed , but take into account , that dell doesn't have a gorgeous 2MP AF camera , a FM Radio , a wonderfull GPS ,and 15.8mm thickness. so i think , it is the ultimate device right now
