The W600 is a North America-only phone; in other parts of the world, it is replaced by the '''W550i'''. W550i is virtually identical to the W600 except GSM frequency band.
A common problem with this phone is the top half (the screen and navigation buttons) detaching from the bottom half (the keypad). This problem is caused by four loose screws that hold the top half to a swiveling metal plate attached to the bottom half. It is possible for one to fix this on their own.<ref> {{cite web |url=http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php?threadid=898275 |title=W600 loose, Wobbly Swivel Home Repair |publisher=Slim724 of HowardForums |accessdate=2008-01-06 |last= |first= }} </ref>
