Hello all! I'm finally back after several months of inactivity on this site. Before I start this review, I would like to note that I won't be as active as I wanted to be before. This is mainly because of my laziness busyness...yeah...anyways, we will now get started
This phone is the SK 6000
There may not be anything weird about it when it comes up to design...but what I've experienced with this phone made me think differently
I will admit though, it's design is really nice. I love sliders like this. What's even more unique about this thing is that it doesn't include a camera, unlike most sliders. In my opinion that and it's weirdness makes it stand out in my collection.
Now, let's showcase the device turning on and see what weirdness it had to offer for us...
I honestly quite like the splash screen on this phone. Especially the quote "SK. U see it. U want it" which isn't wrong since I want a lot of SK phones like these but yeah
It also has a nice boot animation. Funny enough, this animation has appeared on many pelephone devices such as this one
Now we finally get into the phones home screen...nothing too weird though, yet. Let's start entering into the menu
I honestly really like the menu of this thing, despite you only having five things to choose from. I like their little expressions and everything. It seems so weird yet so wholesome. It's almost like those icons have personality. I also like how some get sad when you don't choose them, if you look closely enough you could see that. Now let's move on to something I especially find weird
IT USES A REBADGED MPLAYON THING INSTEAD OF BREW WITHOUT IT HAVING A KOREAN VARIANT?! WHAT?! I mean, it isn't a bad thing (I find it really interesting) but it still would've made more sense to me if this thing used brew. Sadly, my unit has no apps from the old owner. If it did, I would've showcased them here...
Also this thing does have some funny grammar moments. I won't make fun of it too much since the phone isn't American but whatever
Anyways, now time to give my final thoughts on this thing
This thing is really weird, but an awesome device nonetheless. If anything, it has to be one of my favorite slider phones (tied with the SCH-M309). It's weirdness makes me adore the thing and I love that. I'll give this phone a 8.5/10, Amazing! I would definitely recommend this device to you, but it's REALLY hard to come across. You'd most likely find one in Israel, where it was released. If you do ever end up finding such a rare gem like this, get it without thinking twice. Devices like these really need more attention shined onto them and it's sad that they don't get that much recognition. This is the end of the review, goodbye.
