The Samsung M610 is a beautiful yet basic slider phone, and while it is not going to set the world on fire with its features, it will look good while getting the job done.
Smooth rounded corners, polished edges and rounded corners give the M610 a very stylish look. The finish is a sturdy plastic. The top half of the slider does wiggle slightly, but this doesn’t detract from the look of this Samsung model.
Sliding the handset open reveals intuitive controls, and a well thought-out keypad. The buttons in particular provide excellent tactile feedback. Samsung achieve this by slightly raising the keys in order to provide extra finger support. The keys also give a satisfying little click sound when you press them. The rest of the controls on the M610 are also well designed, employing a five-way navigational pad, ‘Answer’ and ‘End’ call buttons, two selection keys and a devoted ‘Clear’ key.
