Samsung D730 - User Reviews

  • I had and loved that phone....it was the in phone back then!!!!!

  • Wow, a Symbian Samsung. Don't get to see those everyday...

  • can somebody tell me if the camera in this phone has auto-focus feature? e900 gives me hell in its pictures...

  • this rocks

  • Did you mean Video caller ID? I have D720 and NO, it does not have it.All you can assign is picture, mp3 or acc as ringtone and speed dial.

  • It doesn't have videocall, does it?

  • Is it a trouble phone?How much in RM?

  • Can you upgrade the memory thankyou

  • I like this phone because it had Symbian OS and card slot, but there is external key/shorcut for mp3 like E730 or E770. How can i play mp3 while this phone is closed??

  • its the best mobile i ever had!

  • it is not gonna be released in the uk coz it is pants lol

  • the d730 and d720 are already on samsung fun club uk so it looks like it wont be too long before its in our shops mmc micros are already on sale up to 512mb heres a review of da best phone ever

  • Sorry, but I don't trust symbian. I have many friends with symbian phones, and they have a problem with the software. Only some Nokia models can have almost everything. And thats why I'm asking, is there samebody with this phone ? It is realy more possible, Opera and Excel will not work, no metter symbian !

  • It has symbian, so you can instal opera!

  • I saw, that internet explorer is xHTML - is it possible to install opera browser ?!?!

  • Do anybody knows, can I have MSExcel reader and editor on this phone !!!

  • im just wondernin is the memory big enough to to songs & photos is it better than the E720 memory or the same or smaller?? plzzzzzzz answer meeeeeeeee

  • MMC Micro is the smallest memory card developed by samsung with faster processing than to any other memory card available in the market. This is the first time that samsung included it in a mobile phone.

  • MMC Micro is NOT the same as miniSD; MicroSD is the same for TransFlash. MMC Micro is to compete with MicroSD=T-Flash=TransFlash; and MMC Micro is the newest standard of them all.

  • Is it possible to use themes that also are used for Nokia symbian phones? Do anyone know where it's possible to get themes for this phone?

  • I have contacted Samsung UK and they have said that they're not planning on releasing this phone over here, which really annoys me as this phone is exactly what i want in being symbian but also having samsung's styling, oh well, guess i'm going Nokia.

  • does this mean that this phone HAS upgradable memory then? so can increase it to put more music or photo's and stuff on? thanks

  • dus anyone kno how to add music onto this.. i am having so much trouble .. same with photos.. the add melody and add image icon always goes away when i connect my phone! =(

  • Sorry, wrong link.

  • Now it�s released in germany.

  • i think thats more than two memory card types lol!

  • There are these 2 types of cards: __________________ SD | MMC ------------------ miniSD | RSmmc ------------------ microSD | microMMC |(T-Flash) ------------------

  • MMC micro and RS-MMC is not same. MMC micro and Mini SD is same.

  • is a mmc micro the same as rs mmc

  • Just returned E730 as the cancel button kept clicking and seemed to catch on the other buttons which are all close together - was I just unlucky and it was faulty or has anyone else had this issue!

  • great phone, I have it, very good looking; does anybody know if it has another, more powerfull battery?

  • this phone is already released in germany and will be released in italy,belgium,holland soon

  • This phone will never be released... i�ve just forgoten him and looking forward sony W800. sad, but i just dont believe in it anymore

  • Look Cool But is it support buletooth V1.2 with A2DP or not? Can I use my buletooth handfree to listen the mp3?

  • is dere a diffrence between redeuced size mmc and mmc micro

  • this is the most beautiful symbian phone EVER! no? compare with n90 that is GIANT! this is small and beautiful

  • Hello Samsung this is the D730 talking. "Please release me" I need to get out and be used... I can't wait for this phone to come out shame it wont come out in Australia, I will have to have it imported from overseas, maybe even buy it on e-bay. (thank goodness for e-bay)....

  • a review of the phone here: looks like a samsung symbian phone is actually going to be released - YAY!

  • seems great~any1 got any idea how much internal memory it got?plus when will be the exact date released?will it be available in asia countries?

  • What's up with Samsung cancelling these nice Smartphones? Especially the i250 that runs in Windows. They going nuts or what???

  • wow this is like heaps kool and i want one. either this one or the e620 which i also luv. my birthday is on the 25th of august so if this one is out and not too expensive then i might get it but im not sure. i wanna no why it has inferard and bluetooth. why need both. how much is it gonna be here in australia approximatly? and also what colours is it gonna come in cause i like colourful phones. i hope i get it cause it looks like a really good phone and good luck to all the people who want it at the moment. S2 Ourdia

  • Got a feeling about it being CANCELLED! NOOOOOOOOOOOO! great phone, it has a memo slot that i really need

  • When will it be available in Holland?? And is it possible to use GPS naigation on this phone, he does have Symbian OS, but no-one can say for sure??

  • I like this phone, specially the design, but 256k external screen? wow! the fone looks slim, specially for a Symbian OS! although it doesn't say which version? what if it is the first version of symbian? and it's only Java MIDP 1! :( Oh well, we'll see when it is released!(thats if it does at all!)

  • Good to see a symbian os - all those apps/games and the memory expansion to accomodate. If it has the same video capability as the E720 then this will be my next phone.

  • I am sure that this phone will be discontinue, I mean, I was shocked to see that the second display was going to be also of 256K, there have never been a phone this amazing, I love this phone very much, but I am afraid to say that this phone might not make it.

  • isn't it the best ever...i can hardly wait for it to appear in Germany...i love it...an i've been waiting for something like this since forever...

  • MicroMMC is the same as T-Flash used in Motorola phones. RS-MMC and DV-RS-MMC cannot be used here.

  • is MMC-micro same as RS-MMC?

  • does anyone know how much this phone is and how long the video lasts? and when is it likely to come out in the UK on pay as you go????? thanks

  • I received an e-mail from Samsung in Australia, they say they are not releasing this phone here in Australia rather they will be releasing the E730 next month June 05. That model (E730) has no memory card slot, what a shame...... :(

Money is no objective for me. Thanking you all in advance Steven Drygalla

  • i like the products online and i will like to order it.

  • Actually I'm still waiting D700 but order cancelled n it make me sad n what's up D730 will coming soon I'm so happy coz it's a great phone, the design is very nice, I luv it n I really wanna hv it soon but I dunno when it coming to my country in Indonesia ? if u know, pls tell me =)

  • AAAHHHHHHH ITS A GX10 !!! SORRY MY MISTAKE. had a scare there. looks really simular to the sharp at first glance.

  • i want to know when are they ganna lunch this awesome phone here in uk? if there's anybody knows the release date here in uk pls i gatta know?.....

  • yess...Jay Z is perhaps correct cuz other sites do say that this phone is MMC-micro compatable...whatz the advantages of a MMC vs a MMC-micro and vise versa any1?

  • yo..thx Jay Z...lolz...i guess cebitz got it...laterzz

  • Sure, here you go: In the EFFICIENTS

  • hey Jay Z...i'm not too sure about that...cuz this phone isnt really released as such...where did ya get that info...if itz a good source of info can u give me the link? plzzz ^_^

  • Wrong specs.. Camera is 1mpx (1152x864) and the memory card is MMC Micro, which is 3 times smaller than original MMC. Also much faster.

  • i heard that it might be stereo. this phone looks similar in design and shape to the e700 series but with symbian like the d720. i seen the d720 and its features were awesome but its design was ugly so i was hoping for a flip phone version that would look similar to the e700 series. it has happened and looks to be my next and last phone as samsung are the best phone designers imo. this phone is compact for its features. playing emulators on it should be cool and all those symbian apps. i can now install gps on it thanks to symbian and i also found an fm radio installer for symbian and along with the memory expansion slot it is going to one hell of an awesome phone. i wonder how much it will cost and when it will be released.

  • is it stereo or mono mp3??

  • i want to see this released with video calling and possibly a 2mp camera.

  • I ment EDGE and UMTS with the network features. And gprs sucks, cause it's very slow, meaning the latency time and speed.

  • hey Jay Z...what itz soo bad about this phone'z network services...itz a tri band phone...what u expect it to be 6 bands or something. and what if its lacking EDGE. we can all live without it. next time u decide to write to bad review...check what your sayin to make sure that u make a little bit of sense. ok bye ^_^ have a nice day

  • OMG! Poor network features, only GPRS eventhough it's class 10. Why doesnt it have EDGE?

  • when is this phone comming to norway or europe???

  • samsung + symbian + 1.3MP camera = a perfect birthday present 4 me!!!!

  • hey all...i think i want this phone now...lolzz...if u check the reviews for the e730 u'll see me sayin that i want that phone...when i comes to chosing the right phone i'm very conflicted especially when itz down to only 2 phonez...lolzz...but i tink ir eally want this one.

  • they better release this phone. awesome looks, awesome features, symbian. this is my favourite phone if released it might do better than some of the symbian nokias.

  • Great thought but doubtful that Samsung will laungh it for real! Many of Samsung's phones were announced but never actually laungh it! so wht about tit 1?

  • Now this is waht i am talking about.Flip symbain phone woth 1.3mp!Cool.Hopefully they will launch it.

  • how long can this phone take video? Is it with flash?

  • This phone is not the copy of D500 neither is E720.Check again if u don't believe

  • omg daisy duck u are soo right...i changed my mind from this to the e730 1 prob is that both are lacking speaker phone but we can live with that even though these phones are soo close to perfect there iz alwayz atleast 1 thing lacking like IrDA but thatz not reall important to me...bluetooth allowz a wider range of wireless communication welll me go bie bie now

  • Oooohh nooo, why there are not those mp3 buttons below the external screen, like on the e730? Every phone which is almost perfect is missing always something.

  • OoooooH my GOsh,...dia fon is HOT, HEAVY seen yea!! BLood, im gettin it fo shizzle my nizzle, trust! U people best recognise, u best put it out, coz its just too HOT!! Holla at ya gurl/boi wen its out yea...peace A town...dudududu.....*click,click*

  • hey all....this phone is soooo hot!!!!!!i want it!!!me like..lolzzz

  • Wowww.....Time to change the "N****"brand....Two thumbs up for samsung....When this baby release in Indonesia????

  • This phone must be manufactured! Samsung! do you hear me!? Everybody stand in line after me!

  • how much and when available in UK? is this better than motorola v635?

  • Well its my time to switch branding...Its a great flip phone design that comes with MMC card slot! Too sad there's neither radio nor built-in handsfree...Megapixels should be higher too! Thnx!

  • Well its my time to switch branding...Its a great flip phone design that comes with MMC card slot!

  • Why don't you guys read through the specs, before you write such stupid things. The D730 is a Symbian phone, just as all D7xx phones before (But none of them actually made it to the shelves). It's likely that this one won't reach the retail shops just as its predecessors. And no it's not a flip copy of the D500! E720 is a flip copy of D500. Well we can only hope that this time Samsung will actually release this phone. the D700 is officially not going out, the D710 is "Coming Soon" from last year's CeBit. Tendencies show that D720 and D730 will be just concept models. I really wish that I'm wrong abput this, I wanna see this phone, cause I'm sure that Samsung can make Symbian phones hist as good as Nokia.

  • there's no build-in handsfree for speakerphone, the only downside. other then that, it looks nice, from whati can see.

  • Hi I think if this phone has symbian OS it is the best of the world. But I do NOT guess so it is so little and light.

  • hi how much is it for? is it available in uk?!

  • n1

  • it's my dream phone...i want it now

  • I am proud to be the 1st to comment on this phone. I think its nice, with good specs!. i also think that the phone is a D500 FLIP.
