What is it: A slider phone with a 2-megapixel camera and a heat- and touch-sensitive touchpad
What we think: It has enough features to keep gadget lovers happy and its seamless design makes it a bit of a looker, too

We like:
The expandable memory slot; mechanical navigation button; Bluetooth and infrared connectivity; speakerphone
We don't like:
Uncustomisable message tones; limited amount of themes; clunky slide mechanism
CNET.co.uk judgement:
The Samung E900 has a very similar feature set to the Samsung D600 and is a marked departure from the classic Samsung slider design. There are a few flaws with it though, and while we like the specs, using the E900 was a little lacklustre at times -- the 2-megapixel camera doesn't take the same quality of pictures as the Sony Ericsson K750i, and the audio quality on the music player was disappointing
