The Eten Glofiish X610 is an entry-level smartphone with Windows Mobile 6.1 and the SPB menu system installed as default, a GPS receiver built in and a two-megapixel camera. It is a quad band phone with GSM/EDGE support, GPRS/EGPRS Class B, Multi-slot Class 10, using a Samsung SC3 2442 400 Mhz processor with a 2.8 inch QVGA screen. The camera is 2 megapixels with fixed focus CMOS technology. The X610 has WiFi for 11b/g, Bluetooth 2.0 and a built in SirfStarIII GPS receiver. The battery is 1530 mAh. The unit is 107×48x14.7 mm, weighs 136 grams. That works out to 4.2×1.9×0.6 inches and 4.8 ounces. I used it on my AT&T net as a phone, as a PDA and as a camera. Overall, it worked pretty well. It does have a few quirks, but as an entry level device, it’s a good option.

You can see Chris’ unboxing video here. It’s a 15 minute video, so I’ll wait here while you go watch…

OK, welcome back. Chris had some observations and experiences that I can comment on. He pointed to the micro-SD slot on the bottom of the unit and wondered how that would work out. I can report that it worked very well. The slot is deep enough that the card goes in completely so that it is slightly indented from the bottom of the phone. To remove the card you press in and it pops out slightly so that you can get your finger on the little lip. I had it pop out completely once and fly across my desk before I could catch it, but most of the time it just popped out a couple of millimeters. I do have good fingernails, so if you have problems in that area, you can use the stylus to press it in.
