Samsung SGH-D900 Mobile Phone

1 Big problem for me with the D900's is you cannot set your own text message tones, you can only choose from 4 or 5 set ones which are down right boring. Apart from this its a great phone and as a mobile shop sales consultant we see very few of these back faulty. One thing to be careful of with all new samsungs is the screens, we see more of these phones back with customer damaged screens than any other make/model. LCD's are very fragile and the slightest knock can crack the delicate crytals and cause bleeding under the casing, this can even happen with no visible damage to the outter casing. But as I have said, appart from these things the phones are very good.

This is the first phone I have had thats not a Nokia, and have found it to be Supreme.

Not omly is it light, slim and really easy to use, it has a 3meg Camera that is just perfect.The Blue Tooth headset is one of the smallest and best on the market.

Battery lasts about 5 days, and can buy extra on here for about £1.50.

Graphics are the best, and now is my main diary. 3 of my collegues have them and we are always finding new things to be used on it.

Overall great phone. Obviously appearance is the first thing you notice with a handset, and the D900i looks so nice, and much better than the normal black D900. A lot of people have complained about the camera being blurred, but it's not if you let it focus properly! The camera itself is really clear and produces good pictures. The mp3 player is great, it has good sound quality and it's so easy to put files onto it. Some people have also complained about the buttons for texting, but I think they're almost perfect. The # key is not the easiest to access because of the bottom lip, but the rest are fine. The message tones cannot be changed, but the ones provided are fine, and are what you'd expect to find as default. The handset itself feels good in your hand, the weight and size are great, and you can tell it's quality built, even from the smooth slide mecanism. People have also moaned about battery life, but i've used non stop for the past few days and it's only just lost a bar of charge. For the features it has, the battery is fine. Well worth getting!

The slimmest slider in the world is already on the market. Samsung D900 (12.9 mm thick when closed) offers almost maximum equipment. It has also been given a special final touch: a 3 megapixel camera and a superb display. Now try to imagine it all in a stylish sliding body. The price, however, is rather high.

Samsung D900
Mobile phones seem to have gone on a diet for good. The slim design first invented by Motorola and applied in its Motorola RAZR V3 model has become very popular among other manufacturers, of which some are slower, while others are even faster than the pioneer. There is no doubt that Samsung is the one who embraced the slim idea to the max. In a short period it has launched a slim model (being also the slimmest ever) in each mobile category existing on the market. After the ultra-slim classic model Samsung X820 and the clamshell Samsung D830 now Samsung is presenting the slimmest slider phone ever: Samsung D900.
Samsung D900 was first presented to the public at the CeBIT fair in March this year as Samsung D870. Later however, the manufacturer decided to change its denomination to D900, which the Koreans thought suited Samsung's ultra-slim line better.
This new Samsung model links to the famous and pretty successful Samsung D500 and D600, and more precisely to their design and functional equipment. Yet, Samsung D900 abounds in changes and improvements. Closed the phone looks like a dark flat square. Its dimensions are 104 x 51 x 13 mm and it weighs 85 g and is thus able to hide into the front pocket of your shirt. Samsung D900 is a little bit wide, which is however compensated by its extreme slimness.
All covers are made of plastic, except for the battery one. Along with matt plastics the manufacturer has also applied black glossy plastics - on top and bottom of the front cover, which make the phone look more vivid. Yet, we find these materials much too cheap-looking for the category the phone belongs to. A bit more of metal details would have suited it better.
The phone is only 13 mm thick Samsung D900 brings no crucial surprises in terms of design. It is basically a "flatter D600". Decorative silver elements have been applied moderately: a band above the speaker, a frame, the central area of the navigation key, and the lateral buttons. On the left side of the phone you will find a dual volume-control key; on the right side is the key that activates themsung D900 brings no crucial surprises in terms of design.
