Samsung D800 - User Reviews

  • £80 is the worst deal you can find for such a phone

  • i paid £80 for this phone (reconditioned)best phone i ever owned before smartphones came along

  • I had this fone but it got stolen :-@ so that totally pissed me off cuz it was a good one, i dint really use for anything else except texting and calling and it suit me just fine. it had a memory card slot so could alteast listen to music in my free time, dint get earphones with it and was plannin to buy it but then i lost it..so yea overall its a good simple fone but i dont think anyone would consider buying it now.. it may be nice for the older generation though :)

  • card memory

  • I have had this phone for 3 years now it's not the best phone, but it did last me for 3 years. As long as you take good care of it, it should be fine. I do know people that had this phone, and it broke within a few months, but it's because they didn't take good care of it. just dont be throwing it around and dropping it all the time. youknow? like just take care of it. The battery life of this phone is pretty good, i leave it on all the time and it lasts for about 2 days until i have to charge it. the features are pretty decent, it's ont bad. it's just average. a good phone if you don't want anything special. Right now it's kinda breaking (inside) because when people call me it shuts off on it's own. but then again i have had this phone for quite some time. i hope this helped!

  • I have D800 phone, i use dual sim in one time but primary is limited service please help me

  • gooooooooooooooooooooo

  • i have this phone it is a serious piece of crap it lasts but the things wrong with it are vast the metal sidings are nice but after about a year they get all destroyed and scratched this phone is good at making calls and texts but don't expect much else.

  • i'm planning to buy one, i just have this one question. does it have security keypad lock, i need it so that nobody can browse my phone even if it's on...

  • this phone does not last long like to restart it' self !

  • My D800 is white.Very nice.

  • The phone is very good & its user friendly but however, mine has been having network problem since the time it was bought. What should i do?

  • Loved this mobile

  • does this have an fm radio??

  • yes there is...

  • i dont care what u guys say this phone rocks its design its really beautiful and ..even thougt camera might suck a little bit 1.3 mega p. but hey its beautiful

  • i I have samsung D800 with a memory card, please how do I use it, as music loaded on the memory stick cannot be retrieved? please reply urgently. Thanks

  • d800 has flash???

  • the phone is just perfect , but i have a problem with it. when the phone is opened the display's light is turning off for a 5-6 seconds , even if i am pressing the buttons the light didn't turns on.can u tell me is that a software or hardware problem?

  • i love this phone but it would be better if it had a card slot

  • i have this phone in white n its damn awsome ive had it for more than half a year now n its not complicated at all

  • this phone is awesome... i am so upset because i dropped it into a puddle and now it won't work... i left it to dry for about 3 weeks and then it worked, but its weird, it will stop working after 5 minutes and goes all crazy... but i wish i hadn't dropeed it because it was probably my favourite phone... its simple, easy to use, and just all around a good phone... i recommend it to anyone who is thinking of gettin it... just don't get it wet :S

  • please someone i need help really badly..... my phone went crazy on me... when i make or receive calls i cant hear anythning or the person on the other side cant hear me... it tells me to plz remove ear phones but obviously none are plugged in.. and when i try to put in the ear phones nothing happens.. and ive tried turning it off and anything.... can someone plz help

  • its a good phone but i dont like the fact that u cant customize ur messaging

  • I have had this phone for over 1 year and I have had pretty good luck. Once in a while it will shut down for no reason, and the silver molding wears off easily, but I find it easy to use and the screen is easy to see. I've dropped it many many times and it's still working. Getting dirt in the slider is bad, because you can't get it out and then it slides rough, but I Can't really complain about this phone.

  • I personally love this phone! I've had it for over a year now. Although the camera is only 1.3MP, it takes pretty good pictures. The design is wonderful and I just love the keypad. =) I'm currently experiencing problems with mine though, in the middle of texting suddenly everything turns all weird and I can't see anything. I have to turn it off then take the battery out and put it back in then turn it on again before everything shows up properly again. Has anybody experienced this? Feel free to e-mail me if you have the answer. Thanks!

  • its a great phone. but i like many others have had problems where the screen cracks from the littlest bump or knock and is $300 to replace.

  • a really good phone

  • I love the simplicity of the device and the bright big and colorful display and the rainbow colored #'s are large and I just upgraded to a Samsung SYNC and it works almost exactly like it except better!

  • Bought SAMSUNG E900 as new boxed recently for �60, got it unlocked. It has few anoyances,light stays on while charging, txtng is pain, etc etc..all in all a good phone for the price i paid so why moan...

  • It has T9 text messaging if you buy the D807 revision of the phone. Also, the D807 has a card slot, so I bought a memory card of 2GB and it works great.

  • There is no T9!!!! Text messageing takes sooooo much time without it

  • i want to buy it but im worried that its memory is crap.can someone tell me the max numba of songs it can store.

  • im plannin 2 get 1 n ave researched it n has any1 got the white D800? btw it is triband :)

  • Does anyone know if this phone is tri-band?

  • I have a serious problem, it was raining heavely and me d800 was in my backpack and my telephone got wet and i tried to clean it and suddenly i got an sms and i want to read it, but my keybord wont respond so i layed me phone open my battery to and few day's later i tried again and in the beginning it worked but after 5 minutes it wouldn't respond again, but i don't wan't to go the phoneshop to get it fixed because if you wan't to fix you're selphone its a lot of money so will my selphone ever become normal again please help me

  • I got this phone for my birthday & i love it! i just wish they didnt sell out fast like they did here. I really wanted the white one, but the black is just as great! I dont really like the camera that much because its kind of blurry, but I can deal with it. I love the backgrounds and the ringtones. I think its just a very great phone.

  • Well the phone is cool and all but I feel thats it to limited in some areas. You cant do other things while your playing music. It wont play a music file if the file name is longer than 32 characters or if its higher than 192kps. It wont display pictures with quatlity over than 28kps. You cant have custom message alerts. And you cant set a file from your music as a ring tone. And also you cant have different profiles. These are just a few that I noticed. Also texting is kinda weird when it comes to holding the phone. But hey just the downs that I feel are relevent.

  • excellent phone !

  • Hello All, is there a way to turn off the home screen while charging? Or does it always stay on?? Please reply. Thank you!

  • A Great Phone IT even Works After You put it in the washing maciene on a 40 degree wash the speakers are great the camera is great but the keypad is a little hard to text with put you get use to it trust me even if i did lose it on a beach in malta BY THE WAY IF YOU FIND IT PLEASE RING ME XXXX

  • I had this phone for 9 months, I loved it! But the speaker packed in and I couldn't use it. Might just be my phone...

  • Hi! For me this phone is very good...great photos, good sound quality, 80 megabytes memory is enough for a typical user, Picsel viewer for word, excel and PDF files and more, more good functions...but I find one defect..you can't upload Java via data cable..:(

  • I got samsung d800 its wicked, buy it

  • i brought this phone second hand off ebay and it is stick in slint mode, anyone know how to change profile's it's driving me crazy

  • Hi guys, can u tell me how can I install softwares like Yahoo Messenger, or Opera Mini to my phone? i`ve got the setup of Opera Mini for the Samsung D800, i transfer it in "Other Files" in the phone..but I don`t know what to do next. please tell me how to do...or give some links..Thanks!!!

  • I used this mobile for GPS. it is well and good.

  • Does anyone know the UK Vodafone Live settings for this phone?

  • This phone is right good

  • Hi, got the D800 today, my first samsung phone and it's pink!!! great looking phone, very sleek, my biggest problem with it though is how difficult I find it to type messages as the keypad isn't at all practical

  • i have got the D800 in pink. it is a good phone but the memory is crap. WHY CANT I HAVE A MEMORY CARD????? all my mates can have laods of songs on their phones and the most i can have is 13 or something. the battery life could be better to. but apart from that its a good phone. i have dropped my phone loads and it hasnt got a scratch on it!

  • can hold alot of text msgs... phone is great, and mp3 player sounds good.

  • i have a nokia 6230i i want 2 get a samsung d800 !please answer me if it worth to give mi nokia and 80 euro to get the d8001 thnx!

  • i have the d807. can anyone send me an email knowing and sites that i can get java games for free? and how to upload to the phone? i don't have internet one my cell

  • could someone please tell me how many text messages this phone holds. thank you

  • I got the samsung d800 for christmas, I have dropped it so many times, only in a hot tub and it still works great! The reception is awesome, the features are sweet... so much better then the chocolate phone! Its so not an imitation. My firend and I compared the D800 with the her choloclate phone, no comparison, the D800 was so much better!

  • Cannot find the way to transfer pictures from the phone to the pc via USB cable. In menu I find only bluetooth option, but I have got the original USB cable.

  • does the samsung d500 speaker fit into the d800?

  • I want to buy the samsung d800.But I am worried about buying an imitation version. How do i know the fon is original and not imitation.

  • i have the d807 and its quite easy to use the menu is not complicated as other brands camera is very good for a 1.3mp if you are a music lover this is a good phone

  • I had this phone for about 2 weeks in the white version and it looked beautyfull but i changed my mind about it when i experienced the fact that it had a very poor reception even with an antenna booster and the battery life is crap, if you play with it using the cam and video won't last more than 1 1/2 hour.I decided to go for the sony k750, now and i can't wait to receive it, i hope it's better than this, the features on d800 are not bad , the menu is acceptable and mine was never freezing, but how good is that if you have to carry a charger after you, and the camera is average to poor, nothing shoking.You can find better phones at the price of the d800.

  • Well guys, I have the Samsung Black Carbon. And if you should know, most of it is made out of plastic. And boy my phone scratches easily. And if thats plastic, think about metal or silver! Boy you are gonna need a case. If I was gonna get this phone I would definitely get it in white. This color minimizes the chance that people will notice the scratches. Trust me. Get white.

  • in my opiniojn great fone had it a bit now and amazin best fone ive ever had...looks great and expensive battery life is good and sound is loud and clear , camera is good except cant find the flash and i love the big clear screen i would recommend this fone 2 anyone wanting to buy it. x.

  • I had the D807...the overall design of the phone is good, very stylish. However, the overall performance is not that great. Reception is poor, drop calls, don't receive calls sometimes. The ringer volume is good however, when you use a mp3 as a ringer it is not very loud. The only upside to the performance is the battery, I would get about 2.5 days of battery life. There are other Samsung slider phones that perform better than this model.

  • the d800 is usually good i have a question when i need to take a picture at night do the camera flash or not

  • I previously had the SGH-D807 model (part of the 800 series anyways), and I must say: Pros � Very stylish. � Performance is above average. � User-friendly. Cons � Screen is very fragile. Cracks very easily. � Volume (overall, inc. speaker) is soft... too soft. I loved my d807... until the screen cracked heavily. I dropped it on a concrete driveway and my baby was dead. If you are going to use the 800s, buy insurance!

  • Amazing phone,best ive personally ever had, the D500 i personaaly was to small. This how ever was the best phone. Accept the low battery life - which is present in all samsungs. This phone has beeen overhshadowed by the d900. i would still have it accept the dog ate it :\

  • i hve this phone nd i like very much in my opinion it will be nice if he has memory slot but u should have 1 and about the colours its ery nice black

  • i put mp3's on the phone but it wont allow me to set them as ringtones. does anyone know whats up?

  • The best thing about this phone is the display...crystal clear. Mp3 player is nice too...all in all, a great phone.

  • gettin this phone 4 xmas but how big is it as in fat ways ...? can ne1 tell me tht has gt it plz ...

  • This is a underful phone, a good design.... to slider.... a great colour... black is a fantastique colour.... a classic colour... i like this... colour .... but i think... in my opnion.... he has a great phone to have a more memory to expandig a card slot..... i like very much this PHONE .... I HAVE ONE...

  • Omg! I adore the phone so i'm getting it for xmas but wondering if i sould get it in black, white or pink!

  • ive had mine for 6 month now it was ok until it started crashing wenever i tried to do anything on it!! also the camera iz onli 1.3 megapixel and it got no wer 2 pt a memory card! ne1 finkin bowt buyin it i recomend you by the d600 itz much better!!!

  • im about to get the phone but i cant make my mind up between this and a different one has this one got a good memory and battery or am i better off getting the other one?

  • this is s..t.if you want to buy a samsung you better buy d600.it have better specifications and also camera (2mp) and d600 have memory card and prizes are similar.

  • Great designed look... Absolute garbage when it comes to funtionality. 4 major flaws are:There is no Apostrophe key selection ('), yup... how do u txt msg's in shortform now. LCD stays on while charging, although there's a few tricks to keep it off, which you have to do constantly. The right soft key is hard coded to 'Contacts' (or 'Mall' if you have Rogers Wireless). The backgrounds when uploading your own, always contain a white border, unless you use a special program to crop and upload them, which you have to find on your own. All in all... 4 annoyances that make you wish you never bought the phone. Thankfully, I've been able to return mine.

  • it`s a grat phone and the price is good...even thought it has 1.3 camera it takes great pictures, like a 2.0 MP camera....and tthe quality and desighn are much better than samsung D600 ...the display in exceptional

  • bought this phone off a friend. it was hardly used. (he didnt like it and went back to nokia) it had only been out the packet 10 mins when i bought it but the key lights didnt work. otherwise, being a great phone, i decided to put up with it(im a yorkshireman so to tight to pay for repairs). also no flash, again, small prob. took it out my pocket to find screen cracked so looking at D900, or would still be using it. dont know if it was bought by my mate as damaged, but some minor faults in an otherwise good phone. P.S, as mentioned by others, battery sh*t

  • i cant find this phone to buy anywhere!!

  • Had this phone for about 3 months....loved it until i pulled it out of my pocket one day and the screen was cracked...great phone but keep the large screen covered

  • 19,200 pakistani rupees its about 274 US$ for 1.3 mega pixel cam and no card slot???u gotta b kidding:D...SE K750i is much much better n this!...also the price is low

  • I have this phone for like 3 months now. The first two were ok but now the phone backlight Stays off for a while after I slide it up or just stays off and if im in the internet the backlight turns off. Dont get the phone!!!!

  • had this fone for about 2 weeks cant sop playing on it i love it! has everytink on it just what neone cud expect! looks very stylish and expensive!! intrent acss is vry good ! every1 stop moaning no quarms at all apart frm the light stays on wen charger thts all no biggy!!ite inabit x

  • I have this phone for gift to my husband and he really like it. Hes a fun of samsung cellphone.He does not want any brand except samsung.

  • I bought the D807 a couple of days ago, and this is a great phone, the only drawback is that it does not save SMS to the phone's memory, it saves them directly to the SIM. As far as an MP3 player, it works great, get a 1G card and load it up with music. It takes great photos (but lacks a flash). Give it a try, i was looking for a mega-pixel mobile with MP3 player and slick looking and this is the best phone I found.

  • how do you set the missed call alert? i've read through the manual and tired playing around with the phone but i still can't figure it out. Thanks for the help

  • Ive had the phone for like 5 months now and its only bug is that when I exit the browser the phone just shows the startup screen again and resets. Another bug was that when I make a call to someone that is far away and I don't use the long distance code (011) the phone freezes and I have to take the battery out and turn it on again to make the phone react. Too all people that are thinking of buying this phone buy a Sony Ericsson w810i or a LG KG800 or a Sony Ericsson K750 or a Razr V3i or V3x. All these phones that I just mentioned are by far better than D800. Probably the people that just buy the phone without thinking are driven to the phone by emotions rather than by sense. If you like Samsung for phones, get a D900, D820 P200, E730, D870, D807, X830 or something.

  • Hi guys, i like to start using my D807 to listen to music, what is a good headset i can get, what do you guys have and like? let me know. thanks

  • I loved this phone until i got it. I am a big nokia fan, and this fan has been disappointing, the battery life has this phone going dead on me every day. The features are nothing close to my old 6620, nd overall i shud've stuck to the bigger, uglier phone with better features, sorry if i ruined it for neone, but im just being real

  • I got the D800 and within a month, it broke on me. Since it was an overseas phone, I can't get it repaired in the US or UK, so now I'm stuck with a broken phone that I paid alot for. The problem with it is that I can't even get pass the starting screen so it needs a reset or something. And there's no flash although it said there's flash. I can't find flash anywhere.

  • Where can I find the lastest firmware for D807?

  • isnt this the same as the cingualr d807?

  • ive got the d800 white one. but the camera resolution is different to the black d800. all d800 white ones has stripes going down the screen. changed the camera, had the software changed and also changed the lcd screen but same problem. does anyone know the solution to this??

  • i have a slight problem.do u know if where the charger and the data cable goes in that small "tongue" is supposed to move a little bit?is it nomal?i mean stick something thin in it and see if it moves.Pls email me at [email protected] a milion

  • I have this phone about a few hours,and I think that is amazing mobile.I Like D800!!!

  • Had this Phone for 3 Months now and I think it is great I am a big SE fan and it took a lot of convincing for me to get the handset but i do not regret the decision for a moment The only negative comments I have is that it took me maybe a day to get used to the keypad There you go C Ya

  • I got the d800 yesterday. im the kind of guy that plays around with a phone a lot. i haven't had a single problem. Guyz, don't listen to the bad comments. Its a great phone

  • Think the phone is fantastic, great style , great performance and generally fab, only bad thing i can see at the momant is the keypad can be semi difficult to text as its almost flush with the phone,but after a while you get used to it, only thing left is to figure out how to download songs from my pc to the phone itself?!!! One last thing the colour is fantastic, Pink, definatley the way to go with the ladies!!!

  • Hello People! Last year in November I bought a D800. 5 months I had no problems with this telephone. Suddenly my display did not funtion good any more. I still do not know how this is possible... So I advice you to buy not a Samsung D800. Maybe it is better to buy a telephone from another brand... Greetings, Tim

  • Hey mXwH go to and click on the software on top write and download that pc studio, and then all u need is either a blutooth pc capable or if u have the USB, u wont have any problems with file formats or moving mp3 files or anything. it even has tools to work on ur music files and stuff, its pretty handy.

  • @dj it takes like 14 songs.f**k 50 cent.THE GAME 4LIFE.

  • There are few differences between the D800 & the D807. The keypad on the D807 is a bit more efficient. The D800 has a camera key while D807 has it as the left soft key.

  • can any one tell me if i can call europe with this d800 phone from usa.. or send text messages at europe. pleaze write me back at my e-mail [email protected]

  • how many songs can the phone hold ! PLEASE HELP

  • hi im the girl who wrote the previous post. well i managed to get a song on my sisters phone - turns out all i had to do was download another song because the songs already on the comp wernt recognised. now all i need is to find out how to transfer images from the PC to the phone . the file format is always not recognised or something :S wuld lyk sum help plz xxxx

  • PLEASE sum1 help me ! wen i send songs to the phone, it dont play and i cant send pictures to the phone! WHAT SHOULD I DO ?????? pls help im trying to fix it for ma sister :(

  • I have the d807, the volume for some reason is very low, sometimes i can barely hear the other person. also samsung need to do something about the limited filename length. i have to cut all my mp3 titles down to 32 letters and it can be really frustrating. the exterior feels really cheap. the sound quality of the mp3 player is not as good as moto or se, when i am out of the room i cant even hear the phone go off. the design, clarity, expandable memory, and camera is good but thats about it. i had a slvr and a s710 and i think those phone would beat the quality of this phone overall. i would rather get a motorola or se then a samsung anyday after i tested this phone.

  • if u want a unique fone get the p300! d design is unique and fabulous! i really love it! i owned 1 for 3 months now and still im loving it!

  • To Christina: I hope you get this on time... 1)the d800 is a tri-band(900/1800/1900), d807 is quad (has 850MHz)- which means that you can make a call in any part of the world. 2)Also, d807 has a microSD card slot which is very necessary (as least for me). 3)D800 has a tv output, while d807 doesn't. 4)D800's display is higher in resolution, but it really difficult to see. I don't think the lower resolution display is a big drawback in d807. Personally, american d807 is better than d800. Good Luck!!!

  • the d807 is a quad-band and the d800 is only tri

  • To roger: The battery life is good, the only reason why people say it wouldnt last a day is because they play music and games continuously and what kind of bisiness people would do that?

  • To: Adam Smith It IS Sexy AND Hot! to whoever down the bottom: this phone DOES have melody AND vibration.

  • To Christina Both phones should be the same, it is just that the firmware / software is slightly different, usually the language it support is different, but they should all support english. eg I know D808 is the version they are selling in asia and support chinese. anyone correct me if i am wrong.

  • HELP NEEDED! does anyone know an easy way to open the battery cover? I cant open it without pressing on the screen and with a LOT of force...I dont want to damage the screen... Please anyone help!

  • i've had this phone about 3 months and i've had problems twice i've had to take it into repairs cos of software problems the screen goes gunny and the phone dont work beware all of u with this phone

  • Hey, could anyone tell me if there is a diference between d-800 and d-807? and if so, what is the diference? Please help me! Im just visiting the USA from Denmark, and im soon going home. Just want to have a phine with me home that you can not get in Denmark.

  • I prefered it was with a sim card slot....it will be cool the phone...

  • i just got this phone yesterday and it works good. one problem/concern im having is that whenever im charging the phone, the main face light goes to dim mode, and never turns off. this makes the phone warm and warm. anybody know how to turn the light off when charging? or is it the way it comes? can ya e-mail me at [email protected] please thanks.

  • I was so tired to wait untill Cingular gets the nokia n80 (i live in US); finally got the d807. I should say I'm quiet happy with it. Thin, nice-looking, pretty smart, has a microSD card slot. Just wish it had a 2 megapixel camera with flash and higher resolution display. I think that microSD slot is what makes this phone great, much better than the European version. Anyways, everybody switch to Cingular=) !!!

  • the phone could be more smarter for this price.

  • this phone is great looking and quite smart.i like it

  • Wow, just bought the Cingular USA version of this phone and I can't wait to go back to my t809(T-Mobile branded D820). The keypad is cheap, it seems like a rubber shield the dentist uses when you are getting a root canal. The slide is really tight too, had to use some force and the thing popped right out of my hand.

  • Samsung oftenly claim that their D series is for business people but the battery life is contradict to their claim. Considering the battery life..It's a kid phone for God's sake! I just wondering will samsung release their phone (especially the D series) at least 450 hours standby time and 8 hours for talk time... Hmmm neeehhhh i think it will be xenium series of philips (yup that real business phone)...

  • Its Sexy but not HOT.

  • I just bought the phone and i am preety pleased...if this phone had 2 MP camera and a memory slot...it would be a perfect phone...ohhh..and the screen that stays on while charging...i don`t know why samsunng thought of this

  • I have games for this phone on a disk can anyone tell me how to get them on the phone as the games folder appears to be hidden when i connect it

  • oh btw i actually have the d870 or watever thru cingular....not the d800 ha i meant d807...OOOPPS!

  • does anyone know howwww to um change the text message tones to something other then the default ones they have on the phone? i actually just got this phone today...and is there anyway to get rid of the STUPID clock thing thats SO huge on the main display? it covers up half my picture!

  • I have the D807 with Cingular. Ive had it for about 3 weeks now and I love the phone. Unlike many believe, you can do vibe and ring at the same time, you just have to go through the settings. Though the mp3 player is not very loud, its still nice to have. This version, unlike the D800, has the microSD slot, making the mp3 player actually useful. The slide mechanism is much smoother than the D820 (T809 on T-moblie) and looks much nicer as well. The camera does not swivel like it does on the D820 either, which I actually prefer...thats less thats gonna break on me in the future. The oversees version of this phone is almost identical but for the no flash, external memory and the quad instead od tri band. I think it a great phone for the value as apposed to the Moto L7. It does have better sound, its just not worth the price tho...

  • i have tried to turn off my backlight while it was charging and it didn't work...can anyone tell me how ur supposed to do it?

  • Can anyone help me, I want to set the new tone for the coming message (the default tone for coming message is boring) but I don't know how to do that. I can set the new ringcall tone for new calling but how about for new message? Thank you very much.

  • no vibe and ring at the same time.. and the battery life is pretty good no complaints here

  • if you go in2 settind u no u can turn off the backlight while it is charging i woz able to do it

  • Hiya. Will some plz e-mail me and tell me the truth about what this phone as im thinking of buying 1 and it doesn't seem 2 have a good write up about it. tash

  • hi,can anyone please tell me if this phone will vibrate and ring at the same time and also what the battery life is really like regards Lee

  • Does anyone know if this phone supports 3D gaming?

  • Hiya. Will some plz e-mail me and tell me the truth about what this phone is lyk cause i'm finkin ov gettin 1 but it doesn't seem 2 hav had such a gd write up. thnx luv jen xxx

  • I Just bought this phone and I agree that it's a huge pain that it stays lit while charging! I wonder how long that'll allow the phone to last before the screen dies. Anyway, it CAN ring and vibrate, but only for phone calls (as far as i've found) it can only ring OR vibrate for texts. Overall, i completely dig this phone, despite the very bright nightlight it provides.

  • The Samsung D800 is an extremely slim sliding phone at just 14.9mm thick and follows on from the popular D500 and D600 but adds a new design, slimmer body and less weight making for a perfect pocket phone. The integrated 1.3 megapixel camera will capture both photos and video clips which you can view on the large 240 x 320 pixel 265,000 colour TFT display. The Samsung D800 also offers a multimedia player supporting WMA, AAC and MP3 file formats plus dual speakers for listening to your favourite music tracks. The internal memory of 80mb should be enough for most people to store their photos, video and music files although if you prefer expandable memory then try the Samsung D820.

  • hey, just wondered if this is better than e900 as i've just ordered the e900 but then spotted this phone?!

  • How can you use the tv-out ? Cant find any cable for it. I'ts a real pain in the ass for typing messages! Overall the phone is not bad, but it coud be better. Greetz

  • I got Cingular's d807 yesterday. It's not a bad phone, but there a few things I don't like. First of all, the large screen stays completely lit during charging. I don't know any other phone that does that. Also, I don't think it can ring and vibrate at the same time. Also, you can't personalize the rings to the individual incoming call. And the voice activation seems a little sketchy. In all fairness, I've only had the phone a little more than a day - but I feel like there are a few annoying things about it, even though I like it overall. The call quality - reception and voice - seem to be top notch. I hope someone reviews this d807 soon - I'd be curious to see their take on it.

  • This phone is great. Expandable memory, 1.3mp camera, excellent reception. Working for Cingular, I got my hands on it early, and haven't let go of it since. Biggest perk though is the fact that there is no hinge that wears down after using the slide for a long time, it's a little arm that moves up and down and holds the top screen very firmly. Speaker could be louder, having mp3 function, but it's not bad at all.

  • does anyone known how to switch between viewing contacts on the phone and those on the sim card? have tried searching on the net, but to no avail.

  • Cingular-USA has an upgraded version D807 with quadband and microSD card slot. That's a better choice. Isn't it?

  • of course more better is black

  • whats better, white or black????

  • Oh look, a flat D500.... why?? Why would you want this when the D6 is better spec? How odd...

  • it can get scratched very easily and the speakers aren't that loud which is a downfall but ye its an ok fone

  • Phone looks the bizz (reaaly swish) Sound - speaker, echoey sound from speaker. Txt - difficulty finding O, efforts always find D!!! Had phone two weeks on O2 network, still unable to get registered for MMS. Battery life!!! pathetic, have to charge every other day - with hardly any use

  • Excellent Phone well better than the d520 , soon to be mine =D

  • No it does not have a flash.... This is a good phone. My only gripe is It feels cheep and plastic, I've had loads of Samsung phones and they have always beaten the compatition becaus the feel so well built, The always feel sturdy But this hanset feels cheep and plasticy. It moght be becaus it's so light. The D820 feels much better in the hand.

  • i love this phone

  • Yes it does have a flash :)

  • I would just like to know if the d800 has a flash??

  • the phone is pretty,but the specifications is no so good,for example samsug e760 is much cheeper than d800 but have better specifications.

  • If you had the choice, would you prefer this model, or the D720 in terms of build quality and functionality? Or is there another slider phone under $350 USD that is better?

  • Well, I've had the phone for a while now. I love it. Dont listen to the bad comments. It has a big, bright screen and its features rock. It has a better camera than the D600 (the 1.3 MP of the D800 is still better than the 2.0 MP of the D600, what is supposed). I've had the D600 and the D800 has everything better, except the D600 is smaller. I've noticed the D600's screen isn't as bright as the D800's screen.

  • to shelly et al... d specs says it has loudspeakers with 3D sound..where is the speaker located?is it loud like moto e398/se w550i?how is d sound compared to D600?

  • well i've only had my D800 a couple of days and must say i'm impressed!! it's a very nice phone with plenty of features...ok so its not got a memory card slot but it has more than enough memory for what i want. i've just got rid of a nokia 6280 which was a nice phone but quite heavy....i've also had the D600 which i kept for a 2 weeks! but the D800 get 9 out of 10 from me!! its light, slim, stylish and has a large screen for viewing!

  • well what can i say..i love the phone. Seriously i have fallen in love with it, i really don't see why people have so many complaints about it because in my opinion there really isn't much wrong with the phone..before this i had the D600 and well what can i say The D600 has absolutely nothing on the D800!! Its simply great..worth the money!!

  • I bought it a month ago.I was not very sure which telephone to buy between d800,d600,w810 and 6131 and i went for the most elegant.It looks amazing,has enough memory for my needs,pictures and video are good enough for a phone,very good and clear sound.D600 and w810 have better features but i think a phone must be good looking first of all. Cons:average battery life(around 2 days)

  • i bought it about 2 weeks ago and its simply great. the screen is big and of good quality. the screen is also kind of scratch-proof as i've had it already for some time and it doesnt have one scratch, and im not one of those people who wrap the phone around a handkerchief so it wont get scratched. the design is excellent and luxurious and all of my friends love it and they compare it with the nokia 8800. keypad is good and one-of-a-kind and the lighting is also very good. no regrets... good sliding too. i advise everyone to buy it. ps: pictures look very good on the phone

  • anybody got this phone is it good or wot? xxxx

  • Sorry that should have read I'd have gone with the D600.

  • Bought this phone a week back, being the first time owning a Samsung I can't really comment on how good it is or not in comparison to the D600. This is the first real move up for me in the mobile phone market and I must say I am very impressed with my D800. Some have said the texting is bad? I have large fingers and have experienced very little problems with the texting mode one criticism I have on that is the predictive texting ( total waste of space ) Samsung take a look at the Motorola L6 predictive texting is spot on. Love the compactness of the phone but hate the browser button being incorporated in the main centre button I keep finding I have to cancel it a lot. The playback on the MP3 and videos is quite low????? but not a real problem however videoing drag seriously needs a look at? Love the compactness of the phone and the loss of Mega Pixel people talk about doesn�t really bother me. My major snipes on this phone are: 1. Battery life is abysmal I have to charge the thing every day however my Nokia 3220 has not been recharged in the past four days. 2. The My folder feature is a total waste of space. the statement my folder would suggest it is for your personal messages / pictures however Samsung forgot to integrate a password protection for this file so making it publicly available should you have nosey friends and family. Granted you can input a phone lock pin etc but once you've done that your phone is extremely venerable. Lets hope the phone has a flash memory ability and Samsung develop an free software upgrade to close that loophole. 3. The fact that you loose the mega pixels and the phone does not allow for upgrading memory I can see being a major bug bare for some and to say the Phone is an upgrade of the D600 concerns me because looking at both phones knowing what I know now about the both phones I�d have gone with the D800 even if it is a little more bulky. All the mini moaning apart I think this phone is a very good phone. But the my folder situation is a major issue to me and would have governed my choice of how much I paid for the phone.

  • it is the most horrible phone i hav ever seen it is no better than the d600

  • Great phone but............doesn't work properly in USA , always show "R" on display and had very bad reception.

  • gd phone

  • the samsung D600 is way better then D800. the D600 has more features, better camra 2 mega pixels 81 mb memory and much much more please take the samsung D800 off da market please

  • I just got this phone and honestly I am not loving it. the # button is very hard to press b/c of the design of the phone. Text messaging isn't as easy as it should be b/c of the keypad layout design. I suggest another phone.

  • aahhh mate!what a phone,I lurve it!

  • I don't know evrything about phones,like most ppl but i think this's fantastic.If like me,yoo're not a sadact who cares about Megapixles and all that rubbish which these lot do I recommend it.You'll be the envy of all your friends.ps the keypad is sound, don't listen to these txt'eads

  • i have this phone just got it.. i don't like it though.... screen is easy to scratch and its kinda big >_> i don't really suggest getting this phone its ok for like "show" value but other than that its not so great u'd rather get the d600...

  • Can someone tell me why the keypad on the Samsung D800 does not light up at night please. It is hard to see in the dark places, unlike other phones that the keypad always light up when in use. Thanks

  • i buy one month ago but inside one problem some time its hang why i dont no sorry about this but its true.

  • Hi all, I just received this phone couple days ago. It's light and has an attractive look. One problem is that I couldn't find the "Voice Command" option in the "Application" menu, although it's mentioned in the user menu. Does anyone have any thoughts? Thanks.

  • hey all! i bought this phone about two months ago and i think its one of the better phones out there. i traded my d500 for this and the functions are quite similiar. my friend bought the nokia 6270 which is like the 808 and the functions on her phone are not quite user-friendly. the only complaint i have with this phone is that the speaker phone sucks and the keypad is aweful for text messaging. all in all, i think samsung is doing a great job on improving their phones in such a competitive market.

  • does anyone know where abouts on the phone you can connect a wrist strap if you can at all

  • well i brought this fone just last night after my old fone dying.. several times... and im in love with it.. i love the screen... its really slim.. alot smiller than the other slidey fones.. I LOVE IT

  • stop moaning and get ova it its only a phone!!

  • Hey..hi there to all..can someone who owns a samsung d800 let me know whether it has the voice clarity function or not..i wud be so thankful. Thanx Prince

  • Had this phone for 3 days after crunching my D500, and it's living up to my expectations. I agree that the keypad could be better, but the functions outperform those on the D500. The screen is excellent, especially the facility to have your videos play on full screen. On the performance so far, I'd recommend this phone !

  • the d600 has a much better screen and the d800 only a 1.3 mega pixle's so that means the d600 is a higher features so this can't be the upgrade then ? from the d600

  • dont get it you get less fone for your money. i tried the d800 on contract and it kept breaking so i got the samsung d600 and it can do far more things than that the d800 it has better battery life and is more reliable

  • The white version is also available for sale in Hong Kong.

  • Just to remind you all that the D800 in Bogey Green is EXCLUSIVE to the Jimbobs Fone House in Doncaster

  • now when these arrived in my store i was so happy as they along with the n91 are the most asked about phones. to have them in white i was so much more happier as you dont get many white phones. once out of the box my feelings changed i like the look but the buttons didnt feel right to hard and cold. the camera is good no where near as good as its younger sister the d600. Also y cant you expand the memory

  • Just a quick note...the d800 is exclusive THE LINK stores in white!!!

  • If this is the upgrade to d600 how come there is 0.7 megapixels gone walkies

  • Well if this one is not so great what about the samsung z510? and the samsung d600?

  • I got this phone yesterday and already I cant wait to take it back - I loved it at first but that was before I tried to text on it - its practically impossible - the space button is awful, and u have to press each button quite hard. Also it has to be said its quite thick and too sqaure - Samsung has got most things right on this - just forgot that it would be nice for the keypad to work occasionally!!! Dont buy it!!!!

  • You can get the white version at a phone shop inside the Lisboa hotel & casino in Macau. (Pls. note that my D808 is an OME version, not a grey market phone!) FYI, You can buy the white version in Mainland China.

  • Wher can I get the White Version of this phone? It does exist but no store is selling it

  • I brought this phone in white colour a week ago. It look so, so much better than black!!! Love it. I brought it from Macau, China.

  • Please, please, please don't buy this phone. If you insist on a Samsung, go for something like a D600. The D800 deserves to burn in a pit of firey torment. It's hell to develop games on, and not particularly good at running them anyway. The keypad is also quite nasty. There's virtually no action in the buttons, so it's hard to tell whether you've pressed the button properly or not. It also doesn't have seperate buttons, so all too often you will press 6, and it will think you pressed 3 too! Aesthetically, it takes the D500 & D600 case design, removes all the coolness, and squares out the edges.

  • Amazing handset very nice features as well.

  • it is low wide and attracts sight from all around. samd800 is luxry flat bar with sliding construction. featuring a display of exceptinal quality and pretty rich software equipment.the two part slide smoothly .brilliant display with QVGA resolution.phone weight is only 98 grams.

  • i want the d807 its an upgrade to this. with a MEMORY CARD!!! cant wait till cingular gets that phone

  • you can minimize it, but you can't use functions as the camera for example. But you can still use textmessages and stuff. I wouldn't recommened to use mp3 on your cellphone anyways. (IT DRAINS!) And you don't use a slick dsign phone for mp3. You use it to impress ppl?

  • The review for this phone says the mp3 player is NOT minizable, but the one i recently bought, you CAN minimize the mp3 player and it will play songs in the background while you are using other functions on the phone. Just htought i would point that out. Plus it supports voice dialing.

  • I have a D720..love it. But It has same Idle screen issue like this one. Wish I can see time and date. Another thing is D720's service light doesn't flash when you get a misscall or sms like my other samsung flip phones does.It gives only one message and goes black after 10 seconds.It really bothers me coz every now and then I have to press buttons and keep checking when the phone is not with me. Is it same with D800? By the way D800 is not a D600 upgrade. You might say its D870..but then D870 has a different form factor(whole front panel doesn't slide up,it has a base)..which looks more like a D820 upgrade.

  • D 720 is Better than d 800

  • Ok call me simple but judging by the d600 being an upgrade to the d500 then surely the d800 is a step further SO WHY THE HELL HAVE THEY GON BACK TO A 1.3MP camera !!!!

  • note to a comment before me.. it lacks an idle screen.. you have to press the volume button to see the time..why? I think it's because the type of screen samsung has used. It seems that the d800 has a darker screen than the d500. I own the d800 and I think it s really great..it's looks great and I don't need music (80mb is plenty)/radio/memerycard on a phone, SO yes �'m quite happy with it. The battery sucks though.

  • Missing FM Radio. It has become essential feature now for the money.

  • Considering buying this phone. I have a D500 and like the fact that when its idle the time and date are displayed on the screen,something which was lacking on the D600. Can anyone tell me if the D800 has this facility please?

  • D870 has external memory support, thinner profile (13mm) and different UI

  • the d80o is same as the d500 the specs are the same and the d600 is a totally differnt phone

  • What's the difference between this and the D870, apart from the camera?

  • the video quality isn't so good as the review says. The picture quality is great but the audio is very crappy. Nokia n70 has better videorecorder and 6280 has unbelievable 640*480 resolution videorecording. If the video recorder is an important issue when buying a mobilephone, i dont suggest this one

  • The review says "Do not try to assign the phonebook application to the down-way key of the navigation button, as it is no good. Quite surprising, but true." Can I ask why?

  • Personally, I think the Z540 is a much better phone except I like the fact that the D800 is a slide phone as opposed to flip. Apart rom that I like everything more about the Z540

  • can you attatch a strap to the phone like the other phones?? please tell me lol

  • Yeah that's exactly right, this is an excellent phone; nice responsive, easy-to-follow menu system, amazing screen, good quality camera and excellent sound reproduction for it's size. Samsung really have the multimedia end of things covered. Oh, and 1.3MP Camera as opposed to 2.0? You're comparing a miniscule amount of pixels, if you want proper photos buy yourself a digital camera.(This goes for both phones) Little annoyances include: - the keypad buttons - which are not the easiest in the world to use, but I guess it's the price to pay for good looks. They're not impossible to use, it's just that sometimes you press the wrong button because there is little distinction between them. - lack of memory card slot - which is a real shame because it features amazing MP3 playback and playlist management. Unless you're looking specifically for a phone and MP3 solution in one 80MB is plenty to play with. Pros include: + Excellent screen - Brilliant, vibrant and well-saurated. Naturally a Samsung LCD Panel + Excellent multimedia handling. Support for MP3, AAC, AAC+, e-AAC+, MIDI, WAV & WMA, who could ask for more. + Features - No it's not a D600, but heck it does just about everything a D600 does. + Awesome design - This is business-class at it's finest. This phone does for sliders what the RAZR did for flip phones. And if you're like me you'd prefer this sorta design over the eggshell-D600 design anyday. + Sturdy slide - It slides smoothly on sturd metal railings. One slide and you know immediately that this thing ain't gonna fail anytime soon. Cheers.

  • @ Y9IW 2006-04-09 03:03 This is true. You can't choose to have vibration + tone at the same time. Don't know why. You CAN choose to have it vibrating before the tones start tho, works fine for me but the setting you're mentioning would be even better.

  • i really like the look of this phone. i heard that D800 can not mp3 ringtone and vibrating at the same time, is that ture. it sucks if it is ture.....i really like this phone...and i m about to buy it

  • isnt the d800 as same as the d500 just with a differnt slide to it specs look the same

  • do it play wma?

  • Can someone tell me if D800 supports Korean language? Can one send text msgs in Korean? Also menus can be displayed in Korean as well? Also, does it come with 850 band at all???

  • is it possible to attach a handstrap to this phone? not sure whether to get this phone or the Z510, recommendations anyone?

  • It's just incredible, i downloaded the manual, and it seems that it's still impossible to create in your calendar a note like "call XXX", where XXX is someone who's in your contacts..... Nokia does it since ages, god, D500/600/800 users, tell me there's a way to be reminded to call someone like on any Nokia phone... ??? (if yes i buy it. .. ...)

  • Well i looked in the store for this phone and it was huge between the D600 then i love D600 no switch for me. Just little too BIG!

  • The D800 is a fine phone; it does have flash and a 4x zoom, while the D600 has a 2x zoom. The D600 has however better functions, but the difference is very little.

  • no flash.

  • I was just wondering, does anyone have this phone in canada? does it have good reception? and is this one better than the D600? and what about compared to nokia phones? (6270 or 6280) I wanna buy my bf a phone for his birthday & i'm trying to see which one is best-he likes the slider type phones!

  • Does this phone have a flash because in the specifications it says it has a flash but I have seen photos of this phone and it doesn't seem to have one?

  • my gf bought me this amazing phone for my birthday a few days ago and i just love it! this is probably the best all-around phone i've had so far - large bright colorful and crisp screen display, excellent speaker & camera quality, and easy to use menu just to name a few. the only "not so positive" comment i have is that the "9" and "#" buttons are hard to press at times but other than that, congrats to samsung for yet another wonderful product and a big thank you to my lovely gf!

  • nice fone but bad memory

  • One of the best & most impressive phones today in the Market. We at http:// www.soundtech.com.cy in Cypris selling it along with D820. If you like to have external T-Flash MMCard and/or Rotating camera then go for the D820 and spend the few extra $$. Both are same dimensions and are extremely slim compare to D600 which is bulky. If you like clamshell design and 3G technology then definitely buy the Z510 which is equally slim.

  • I just bought this phone using my salary. Overall I like the t710 better because its cheaper and lighter but if u dont care about weight then i guess this is the one for you. lighter means faster tho.

  • I think Samsung is going backward,this phone supposed to better than it's sister(D600)....averall,it's a good phone if you wouldn'd mind much about the Camera&Memory's card....It's very sexy phone which feel good in your hand and very good to look at....Price is not bad too.

  • Hello I already have d600 but i dont like where the camera is. I like d800 where is the camera located on the phone please let me know.

  • i got this phone today and its awsome its well worth it. my mate has the d600 and this is much thinner and lighter and over all better even he thinks so. so i recommend this phone to boys and girls.

  • to d one who just got d phone...pls make a mini-review of d phone regarding the UI, MP3, Video, Display.....does it play video in full screen?is d sliding mechanism smooth?how's d ringtone, is it loud?can u use mp3 as sms tone?tnx.............

  • ohhh.. i got this phone yesterday. and im already loving it... jus hope that theres no manufacture defects!!!.. i do maybe perfer a card slot.. but this design is way too stunning.. i can not resist not to buy it when i saw it in the store yesterday!!! :)))

  • Nice phone but the D600 is better with preferences and the look i like this one too but i prefer D600 just a better allround phone.

  • ok ive spent 1hr reading like 10 pages with the diff between the d800 n d820 which aint that much but then i compared it with the d600 it aint that much better im not sure y they made it i was lookin 4ward to the d800 butim not sure if i want it

  • this phone wont be available in the philippines for d next 2-3 months...:-( i called up samsung & they have no advice abt this unit...

  • It's smaller than the D600 and is made from magnesium so it looks and feels fantastic. Who cares that the camera is only 1.3 megapixels.

  • can mp3 be set as SMS tone?anyone..tnx

  • The phone is absolutely amazing. i mean, great style, great looks but honestly, why cant they have a phone that has ringtone and vibra at the same time?? Nokia seems to have covered that but not much choice on this one is there. Someone help!!!!

  • y is this expensive than D600 when it (D800) doesnt have memory card slot & d cam is only 1.3MP?anyone...............

  • I have D800 and I am wondering, where are dual speakers??There is only one speaker and the sound quality is wery poor..

  • Is there men or woman, who can tell me secret codes for this samsung? I now only for *#06#

  • RE: Antoine Hi there, i was annoyed by the same issue there and what i did was i downloaded a ringtone that has vibration and ring at the same time. All problem solved except i didn't have pretty much of a choice of having other ringtones.. :( Hope helped

  • A good replacement for the D500, the features are almost identical. THIS PHONE IS NOT MEANT TO REPLACE THE D600, Its meant to replace the D500 and compete with the Motorola V3 Razr (to be honest two plastic cups and a peice of string will compete with the razr). If you have the choice get the D600, the cameras better, the screens better and it has a memory card slot.

  • Hi i just purchased my d800 and its great, its sofisticated but i have one thing, im from mexico and the manual is all french, the box and some reviews said that the camera has flash but where is it? iCant find the flash please somebody help me or send me an email thanks.

  • This phone is great. The ONLY problem I had, is that I changed the voicemail server number, and now I cannot access it. Anyone with this phone, could you please tell me what the DEFAULT voicemail server access numbver is? Its under Settings/Network Settings. Thanks, it will be greatly appreciated.

  • I just got this phone on Saturday and the manual book is in French, I can't read it and having alot of trouble figuring how to use their features like MP3 or transferring music from my comp to my phone. Can anyone help me? Please email me or send me an IM. The disk that comes with my phone also doesn't work. I don't know what to do. Other than that the phone is good. Please help.

  • I got one this saturday... Pretty nice looking phone, very impressive screen, big, bright and colorful... However i'm coming from the SL55 and I cannot get used about its size. Yes it's thin, but it is a bit large and long... I'm considering getting the D500 instead... Yes it's thick, but overall it is a smaller phone with nice design and similar specs... + it is very cheap right now

  • This is my first samsung, had only nokia's before. I love it...only there is one thing. You cannot set the phone to vibrate and ring at the same time...and its freakin annoying me. I dont hear it all the time...but its not always in my pocket. What lame man... Can i hack the damn thing to do this or something...or whatever??? And the keys are kinda getting used to...i got normal fingers, but if you have fat porky fingers...forget about buying this phone! ;-)

  • A full review on D800 :

  • Does this phone ring and vibrate at the same time?

  • Why this one has only 1.3 camera??? Don't understand Samsung's way of business.

  • yeah nice opinions, but i prefer D600 just better just better, and if you guys want a phone, like MP3 omg why use a phone for MP3? then u better take D600 couse the battery lifetime is much longer then these one but this is also a nice phone. but your opnion counts.

  • Is it me or this is the same phone as D600 but this time with out a expansion slot for memory card ( and not many curves as D600 to )?

  • If I see this, I am happy with my Samsung D720 which is not known in verry much country's. It is in Holland though. Its design is nearly the same. what this phone has as a pre is its battery time. a Samsung D720 has only 120 hours up time. and belive me thats not much after having a Siemens SL55 which had 300/400 hours of up time. I know little to nothing about the D600 other then that I do not like its design. And I do like this style. Its more sleek. more Uncommen then the D600. If it is not a smart phone, no, I do not think its a good phone to take. Other then that the "numbers" you type are nice and black again.... Unlike with my Busniss Phone that has "Collor" full numbers... Rainbow collors...

  • Any hands on reviews for the d800 out there???

  • its funny that with time samsung is downgrading its fone features instead of upgrading it with time. We have better options available in the market

  • In the netherlands it is out and you can buy it, but i prefer D600 just a better phone at now for samsung. Only thing that they are doing is to play with the phone's with the design and features. Just My 2 Cents..

  • Its sleek, just like my head

  • just buy the D600

  • to sunny - you most definitely did NOT see this phone at tmo today - they carry the t809 - which is different from the d800 (you saw the t809)

  • sir,pls.send mp3 to midi converter(convert sing tone)

  • i saw this phone at tmobile today and it does have a trans flash card slot

  • oooh i like that

  • ­ ­ Micro SD??????????????

  • huh...whats wrong with 80mb of memory?

  • no memory card means bad phone

  • They downgraded this model. what the hell? my d500 is better than this

  • it is cool!!!

  • owwww very low memory very bad!!!!!

  • I would rather buy this device if it had memory card slot in exchange for keypad and phone connectivity.

  • d800 has the same feature set as the d500, but with a new feature which you can view microsoft word/excel/ powerpoint etc, and a HTML viewer. also, this phone has a QVGA resolution lcd, which is larger resolution wise, and physically compared to D500's 19in lcd. this phone is in no ways worse than D500

  • aw man it really is a shame that they screwed us with the memory!

  • low memory...useless

  • Its a budget handset from Samsung, at a high price. They're having a laugh. Its worse than the D500, just thinner and has a better battery. but why have they taken the memory away, the 512Mb card in my D600 isnt enough, we need more! Maybe a i300x for me next!

  • what! no sd slot? i thought this was the t809, its looks newer and a store in my city(montreal) just received it.

  • wads the exact space memory for this..?

  • its amazingly wonderful.

  • my friend said he is gona get this n its not even out yet

  • I write from Russia. At us only advertising about D700 today has appeared, And about D800 I have learned only on the American sites. On sale of it anywhere is not present. On a kind abrupt phone business a class

  • To Kimby It says its been announced in 2005, hasnt got a release date yet. "Announced - 2005, 4Q Status - Coming Soon"

  • Looks almost like the american T809 for T-Mobile. Got mine couple of days ago. I love the phone, don't know, really, who would buy D800 for $600-$800 if T809 is only $250-$300 and is a better phone (it has a memory card slot which will expand the memory up to 512mb)Design wise the only difference is that D800 is black and silver and T809 is all black + it has a rotating 1.3mp camera

  • I would like to buy this phone, but it says it is coming out in 2005 and we are now in 2006. Please let me know!

  • i had this fone for a week it came up with problems like low battery life after a couple of hours so i switched contracts to the d600 best choice i made love the d600 no problems at all

  • It's like an advanced slider samsung razor!!!!!!! I have it for t-mobile USA and it does have a card slot. Music quality is really good. I was looking fo something to replace my beloved nokia 7710. though this isnt quite it, it a good attempt. ive also had the moto v360 and this is way better!!!!

  • T-Mobile in USA has them now, they went on the floor today (Thursday 15 December). Price US $299.99

  • hmmmmmm new 1 buh i fink d600 iz betta den d800.n yeah wo abt its megapixels 1.3 !!!cumon samsung improve yo new cell phones megapixels..lyke how cum samsung company built 2.0mg in d600 n 1.3 in d820,d800....

  • i have the d800 i work 4 samsung i think its the best phone out ive been offered �600 for it and i wont take that sowwie

  • does the fact that Sony Ericsson copying Pantech and Curitel make it bad? The K750i is a direct copy spec and design wise to the Pantech&Curitel P1 sold in CDMA network in S.Korea since 2003.

  • It looks great, very executive!

  • Dear SEGO.. that is market, u cant say copy other brand.. coz it is different design (although u said its similliar but it isnt!) and different specs.. For me, this is an attractive phones :P

  • samsung is good but price is very expensive

  • This phone simply reminds me of CRAPPY NOKIA 7650. Now after copying Moto RAZR, they got a copy of 7650 too... Sadly, they copied the crappy features too. I will not be surprised to see a copy of Sony Ericsson K750 or W900 in the future. It's a loser's phone I guess. Features no better than from where they copied it.

  • hello! im finkin bout gettin dis fone 4 xmas nd i woz just wonderin how much & where frm! It wuld b such a help if sum1 could tell me!! Fanx!

  • this phone has a modest features but has a great design, slider which is very slim and i know samsung phones in personal is very attractive and this phone would be very affordable. NOKIA and Sony Ericsson do not have the technology to make slim phone.

  • Mart.. No one have to follow my opinion coz it is my own opinion & every one is free to think, do what ever he/she likes! i was just pointing-out to the good design of d800 & whishing if it is equipped with the latest features since we are in the 3G era! not 2 remind u that �marketing wise� all companies nowadays r promoting 4 their products based o features & designs! Again this is only my opinion. SALAAM

  • Yup yup so true, if everyone has the same tastes, all the phones will look exactally the same.... I like the 820 :D

  • I'm realy digging the look of this phone. I think the design is a little more 'fluid' than the D600.

  • D600 is the one for looks! but i dont like the look of these two new ones yet -but the older models are much better designed

  • Rami! Not everyone wants every feature in the world! Companies do not make phones specifically for you! There are other people in the world. If you don't like this phone, then don't buy it! Simple!

  • Frankly, I can't understand the policy of Samsung!! No doubt that the last few models ,which was released by Samsung or had been announced to come soon , are stunning, but again why we see nowadays a breath taking model like D800 & yet when it comes to the specification it is very poor!! No radio, no flash, no good cam, no second cam & even it is not G3!! If we want to compare it to the new coming models announced from Nokia or Sonyerrecson & siemens...Etc I am sure that we will feel sorry for the stunning design of Samsung which is a waste when it is equipped with such poor specifications! Thanks

  • no it's not out in Korea``` that's a different phone look more colsely~

  • this phone is out in South Korea (pitty it's in CDMA type). I'd have to say, it's looking pretty damn GOOD!!!!!!!!

  • Joe wants to know.. the release date!!

  • Clearly you haven't seen face-to-face a Samsung D phone :) (or you are just a fanatic)

  • for samsung to roll out this phone at the high end is a joke! Their mid range x640 and e530 clamshell has been upholding the samsung names very well but the D series just ain't good enough!

  • Looks like a NOKIA 7650 to me!!!

  • so beautiful.. in luv' :>

  • this is a modis phone,not like nokia so bulky and SE which is bad in clamshell design too bulky maaannn..but good in PDAphone.i dont mind if it didnt have an xternal memory card cause i think 100MB is more than enough

  • More pictures @

  • I�m realy dont understand Samsung designers. 1.3 MP ,no card slots.... what a Crap phone.

  • hmmm whats with samsung, they dont like to put memory card slots do they?

  • Nice phone, but not not shining in performance

  • This phone looks really nice from the small picture, and the features are ok :) I don't need the camera anyway.. if I'd want to take pictures somewhere I'd bring my camera. I think this will be my new phone :-)

  • well its different i mean it looks nice but 1.3 megapixal plzzz its a d series this is not back to the future i would have expected at least 3 mp from the next samsung and no tv out put comon
