First of all and for the record:
The phone DOES offer ringing & vibrating at the same time. It is important to me, as I always have trouble hearing my phones in busy environments, so I had set this option even before leaving the store; this little Samsung DOES have this capability.
Vibration is strong, and ringtones are quite loud and clear.
Another unique and quite wonderful (for me) function that no one seems to have mentioned, is the 3D messaging.
When you turn it on, it displays your incoming messages as if they were written on a typewriter, letter by letter, and if that is not enough, it recognises various words, like home, car, sun, cloud, bus, love, sorry, happy, etc and transforms these words into animated cartoons!!! Excellent little function! Thumbs up Samsung!
All in all this phone is the best handset I have ever had. It does its job (calling) brilliantly, has a beautiful display, it is incredibly slim, quite handsome on the whole and a menu that really completes the package. Trust me; after having this phone for a while, EVERY other phone on the market seems like a bulky, out of date brick.
This is future technology today. :)

well i heard samsung t519 that's coming out in u.s. next month are going to have the memory card (t-flash most likely by looking at the size of the phone) and also, it's going to be a 2.0 mega-pixel phone.. is that true that? ha... i'm not even sure if it's true but they said maybe... so any confirmation on that one guys?

Thank you MobilMania.cz for the extensive review on Samsung new slim product!
Please EDIT! Vibration and ring tone works in perfect harmony on my X820 ..

Thumbs up for this petite fone...DEFINITELY A WINNER - i dare say because while motorola spark the "bulimic-fones"-trend, they did not spark a pretty interface...Samsung has cracked it.

Samsung & Motorola are now both in the slim line competition. The D810/A900 is a good competitor to the V3/i. Its clear that brands such as Sony Ericsson & Nokia are not too concerned by the size of thier handsets but are more focoused on their functionality. I prefer this honestly. However comparison to the N70 may really be a bit on the off side as the 2 mobiles differ drastically. The X810 is quite slim, but since the camera apparatus is a bit protruding, it seems clear that an actual size was not stated. A better comparison would have been to the Motorola's L7 Slvr. The phone is okay in terms of size & capabilities. Great Review.

Relax, they just compared the thinkness with N70...and they picked the right Brand in my opinion. Nokia doesnt care about thinkness and weight. their phones are getting bulky and Ugly. There is nothing else to compare otherwise. N70 is in a different league.
Peace!

It seems a bit strange to compare this phone to a N70 since the N70 offers a much larger display, supports memory card, and least but not less runs Symbian.
In my opinion it would be more fair to compare it to a Series 40 Nokia if you do want to compare to a nokia.

Nice review.
Except one thing.
Everyone seems to believe that Motorola started the slim trend with RAZR. Thats not correct. Motorola and Samsung both lunched RAZR and V740 (now known as D810 or "BLADE"/a900 in US) on the same day in Korea.
