Samsung D300 - User Reviews

  • I love this phone for being a small size and has qwerty keyboard, but I didn't buy it. I will buy it if it has an sd card slot, a wifi, a 2mp at least with VGA camera, better battery around 1000mA-1500mA, and the color of the phone is snow white. It will be cool if samsung modify this phone and releases a phone with better features, but keep this flip up and flip side-way feature of the phone. Hope Samsung will release this a similar phone like this, but better features in GSM band. Teenager will love it.

  • yes this phone can play mp3 ringtones. iv bluetoothed some over from my other phone and it plays them.

  • cingular (at&t) picked it up (d307)when it came out.

  • i have a problem with the sms of the sms.... i have New York time, and when I receive a sms its says that the time is 5 hours later than the real time, for example i receive a sms at 1:00 pm and the cell phones says 6:00 pm... anyone now how to solve this?? thanks

  • do samsung phones have minutes? and thats an ugly looking phone on the outside but inside the key board is awesome!!! love ya all bye

  • wat company do you use this with a looks like the alias from verizion lol

  • Interested in purchasing this one but I keep getting mixed information about mp3 ringtone capability. Some say it can, some say it can't. Can anyone clarify this for me? Necessary software, etc? E-mail me at [email protected] Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks all.

  • I Loved this phone. Mine broke :-( but the only things that I thought it was missing was a camera and itunes or just a place to upload music from your computer. (hint hint samsung)

  • I have the D307 (USA only) it took me a week of using the phone to acctualy understand all it does. it was complicated at first because this phone does so much. But now that i've had it for a week i love it. It also has voice command for dialing and text message. It also has vibrate, vibrate and ring and silent. I dont know why the negative reviews. I plan to use the phone for text message. I realy like that you can write a text message and have the option send it via email or to a cell phone. This phone is complecated to use becasue again, it does so much. The only thing i don't like are the polyringtones. But the screen colors are sharp. I recomend this phone is you do not like bar phones with qwerty keypad. The D307 is the only cell phone out there that is a flip qwerty keypad and i love it.

  • I liked this phone, but unfortunately no Camera is built in. Therefore, I will not buy it.

  • The reason i want this phone is because is doesn't have a stupid camera. I use phones to make phone calls and text message so without a camera i'll have less garbage to deal with. i wish they custom made phones but this one is close to my custom dream

  • yea this phone iz great but i dont know wen it came out

  • Honeys, don't get your underwear in a twist... I love this phone too, but it's a real shame that it doesn't come with (at least a 2 MP) camera... That's also the reason I won't buy it..

  • Thank you Samsong for finally coming out with a phone that worth it.

  • thank you samsung for fianally coming out with a phone that's worth it.

  • YO THIS PHONE OWNS! I LOVE IT! call my peeps, and then boom switch it over to text message people. ZOMG THIS PHONE ROCKS! worth all the money! IT OWNS!

  • oh hell on earth...damn!!i ws of the view of buying thi fon d300,bt wat people hv talked abt it really scares mi...a calculator pad!oh no!try and mek some attractive fon displys,not just marketing calculators.i lov sumsang but i dnt no which one to buy.

  • Worest and uglist phone i ever saw in my life...? samsung wht u have done...its a calculator or wht...? rubbish...

  • The worst phone that i ever have.

  • Oh damn, another calculator in FLIP mode? My only guess is that Samsung are trying to take over the calculator world and make it into 2 in 1!

  • looks lik a calculator

  • this is the worst piece of machinery and design i have ever seen!

  • It looks like the Nokia..... HA HA HA HA HA...................... It actally looks ok, but what an ugly keypad.

  • Can this phone be used in Japan? it said somewhere that EDGE (which the fone has) has the minimum requierments for 3G, which is used in Japan. I'm still not sure though.

  • ergh, they got this phone for cingular here in the us, but im not sure if its available in the uk to the person who wants to know. i don't think this phone gave me the impression of when i first looked at this page.when i held it in my hand , it felt fragile to me. go try it, not an extrememly bad phone!

  • I like the design of this phone, especial the keyboard.

  • it says the phone is available but can it be bought in uk!? i really like it!!!

  • Is the outside of the screen color or what everybody says that this is a super phone so I want to know.

  • hmm, no camera and only 5MB internal memory. come on samsung, you can do better then that...

  • F**k Theres no Camera :(

  • can someone tell me what Samsung D307 USb bluetooth adapter version is is it 1.2 / 1.1 or 2

  • I have D307 and i been wanting to know what Bluetooth Version is it 1.1 or 1.2 or 2... can someone tell me ?

  • the design looks same 2 N92......

  • Guys! no wonder why there is 5mb memory and no cam. Just checked Samsung SPH-B3100. With 1.6M screen,Transflash slot,2mp cam that's a multimedia player in the same design. No QWERTY keyboard though. Thats more like a N92. But well it's for Korea. Here is the link. I hope the put some features of B3100 into D300 and release a new one.

  • Its not meant for everyone ANI. Then again it should have more memory and a camera wont hurt much. If I send email and text messages, I might like to send some pics as well.

  • very boring fone,i would say

  • a phone with as low as 5MB shared memory should have a memory slot since it has MP3

  • seems like a terrible phone to me =(

  • seems like a boring fone...

  • NO Card slot wat is the use of having Mp3 n other functionality if thers no memory slot present ?

  • Be advised that this phone's QWERTY keyboard has very limited functionality. You cannot use the keyboard to enter text if you are browsing the internet and you cannot even use it to enter a new contact into your phone book! Samsung has stated that they have no intention of fixing this with a firmware update. This is absolutely inexcusable. I have boycotted Samsung forever because they had the audacity to release such a crippled device.

  • hm samsung n92? atm theres a lot of copy in forms.

  • fone ees veri good. i like. i buy from toys r us? yes? thankyou pleese.

  • I just wanna add that motorola pioneer this form factor I believe it is the mpx300.

  • Nice to see that Samsung has the courage to go against the wind and not waste weight with a useless 'camera' like everybody else! Is this the smallest clamshell with qwerty yet?

  • I meant "We", I'm in the US too.

  • Well you mostly unlucky people in the states(when it comes to cell phones), got lucky somehow this time..LOL. Samsung didn't release this for the rest of world which will work on GSM 900 / GSM 1800 / GSM 1900.So its "coming soon" for them.

  • i have this phone and it is great. this phone has been out for a while on cingular. i dont know why it says its "coming soon".

  • Nooooo! Nokia phone's name is N92 Show next site..

  • It is similar to Nokia DVB-H Phone N72 the shape and multi direction clamshell type uuuuuuuuuuuuu SamSung

  • @Dayo, Not sure who copied who, but the fact is N92 is still "coming soon" and this one is available for quite some time now as D307 in the States. So you do the thinking. Both of them has the same opening mechanism. But they meant for differnt end-use. N92 is more of a multimedia player. Its big in size(107.4 x 58.2 x 24.8 mm,)Heavy(191g, 16m color, card slot, 2mp cam, But it doesnt come with QWERTY-keys. D300/307 is more for messeging/emailing.It doesnt have camera/memory card but comes with QWERTY-keys in a much smaller(95 x 49 x 21 mm) and lighter(122g) package. Here is a complete review. check it.

  • this is a stupid copy of the nokia N92 design

  • Its available in the US through Cingular.But its 850/1800/1900 MHz. Wish it has a camera and card slot. Nothing could beat it then.
