Toshiba TS608 / TS30

 

Here is a name you do not hear much in the cell phone world, the Toshiba TS608 (also known as the TS30 in Asian markets) is an ultra-slim handset, exclusive to the Vodafone network. At just 9.9 mm thick, it's one of the slimmest phones around and it weighs just 81 grams. Thinner than the Motorola SLVR and only beat by the Samsung's latest bar at 6.9 mm thick.

The Toshiba TS608 features with a 1.3 megapixel camera, a 1.9" 176x220 pixel display in 262,000 colours and Bluetooth, plus the TS608 has an MP3 player, FM radio, microSD expandable memory (up to 512Mb), a web browser and email client. One neat feature on the Toshiba TS608 is the top-mounted media controls, something we've only seen before on the BenQ-Siemens E61 - this means that you can control the TS608's multimedia while it's clipped to a belt.

One disappointment is that the Toshiba TS608 is only a dualband GSM 900/1800 device, rather than a triband or quadband device. Data connectivity is through GPRS only - the TS608 doesn't support EDGE or 3G data. Talktime is a maximum of 2.5 hours with 6 days standby time, which is a little on the short side.

The Toshiba TS608 is already available in some Vodafone markets in Europe and Asia (where it is sold as the Toshiba TS30). I think this phone, while not the thinnest, is one of the best looking bar phone out there, not sure how well Toshiba works though.
