Whenever Samsung does something, it does it in style. Samsung is a brand that never compromises on features – even the entry level Samsung mobile phones are the best in its class. Companies like Nokia and Motorola which have established a firm grip on the world mobile scenario, are getting stiff competition from this South Korean mobile maker. Although Samsung entered into the mobile segment a bit late, still it's enjoying huge popularity – on the sea, sand and surf.

Samsung has made a phenomenal journey into the thriving mobile phone market with its D-Series range of handsets. Then came the E-Series. But the best of Samsung was purely manifested in the X-Series handsets which were slim and slender in looks but high on performance. While U-Series marked the rise of mobile entertainment, the recently launched G-Series further stretched the mobile entertainment sphere.

As of now, Samsung has only one handset under its G-Series league – it's the Samsung G600. One more model, the Samsung G800 is launched recently. Here are the features and specifications of both the phones to get a glimpse of their capabilities.

Focusing on the music feature, the phone incorporates a highly powerful music player offering solid sound output even at full volume. You can experience distortion free reception for all radio frequencies through its stereo FM radio feature.
