CNET UK judgement:
Sony Ericsson's M600i shows just what can be done when you try to design a sleek, serious-minded 3G handset. Small and light, it is a tidy phone, and its battery life is good. But there is no camera for either shooting stills and video or for making video calls, which is a great pity
