Cect 599 takes iPhone route

Story posted on: July 20, 2007. Filed in: others.

The Cect 599 from China shares plenty of design cues from Apple's iPhone, and the 599 model number resembles that of the iPhone's price as well. It comes with a 3.2" touchscreen display that boasts 240 x 400 WQVGA resolution which is easy on the eye, but too bad that good work is undone with video playback support of just 176 x 144 pixels. Other features include Bluetooth connectivity, dual speakers, and a 1.3 megapixel camera, all crammed into a 90 gram body. The Cect 599 retails for $150 and lacks any internal memory, relying instead on a microSD memory card slot for your storage purposes.

I have had a cect 599 for several weeks now and am really pleased with it - it is an easy unit to use and very close to the iphone in design - the spec is in many ways better, having dual sim etc. Recommended to anyone who wants the iphone style without the expense or being tied to 02. You can get a neat leather look case for it for next to nothing from ebay which makes it look the business entirely. Go for it! It costs peanuts but is excellent!!
