Just got my phone and it is indeed a superb phone. I have used many Samsung phones previously and I do admit that it has one of the best screens but the functions sucks. BUT not the D820 .... one of the best phones I have used and the bluetooth functions better than SE, Motorola and Nokia. Very fast. The screen is large and crisp clear. A good phone investment. I carry 2 phones now - Motorola black V3 and D820. Both nearly the same and beautifully black. Samsung has done it!

    first of all, both d600 and d820 are samsung phones.. both have the same features (i guess) the only difference is the thickness... i don't have anything against d600... i even thought of buying it.. but when i got both phones in my hands, i decided to go with d820...




    i don't think there's something wrong with the sliding function of this phone... my functions well! :)

              Can anyone tell me whether D820 can receive POP3 email? I am going to buying this phone but e-mail receivable is very important for me.

                  Hmm .. well if u r talkin bout the reviews were givin to the both fone's in phonescoop so 14 user's review'd to the D600 and 54 for the D820 !! so i guess this is tellin u everything now ! Beside half a point not a big deal if u consider it that much anyway .. why not all the feature's of the D600 in a new slimmer better design like the D820 .

                    HERE WE GO AGAIN-SAMSUNG!
                    15mm thickness (why????????)
                    t809 is a crappy phone comparing to excellent d600 slider!

                    WHY?
                    Well, d600 has normal thickness (23mm)
                    Therefore it doesn't have software issues, sound clarity issues, etc...

                    For those who still don't believe that thickness of the phone is matter, read the reviews of T809 (3.5 Score) and of D600 (4.2 Score) at http://www.phonescoop.com

                      Well , if its just bout the slide issue i will tell you one thing , this fone has no problem with the slide its only ppl how used 2 work wiz da D600 would feel so and i will tell you why , the D820 slimmer and has a quite curve build in the bottom of it so the designer's did it this way to avoide some prob in the future with the machinsm of the slide [by the use] and the best way that u can work it by the middle of it [press'n on the bottom of the screen] but ppl get used 2 open slide fone's by press'n from the of the fone , so that's why the feel akward when they do the same with this fone .. and thats all , but im tellin you there is no prob with it when use it by the right way .. otherwise Samsung is very familiar with the slide fone's and they are expert , so no worries :) !

                        this is a great fone. i plan on buying this fone soon. my question is that if anyone would recomend me to buy the d600 instead because of the sliding problem on this one?

                          Undoubtedly a good phone.. has got some real high end features.. but what sucks real time is its battery.. if u use the phone moderately.. still u'll end up charging it everyday..

                            Hey guys. i just bought the D820 2 days ago, ive sat down with it for a long time, gotten used to all the features, and the keypad. its an amazing phone, tho they really couldve made the flash menu a little faster, and ofcourse the battery life is just appaling, that is when u are listening to music. the speakers are very good. yea, def. worth the buy

                              I just bought this phone yesterday. Its a very cool and nice phone but I seem cant connect it to my Bluetooth Headset (Bluetrek E2). This phone can't find the Headset. This phone is Bluetooth v1.2 so do the Bluetrek E2. Any opinion?

                                  nice phone.. been using it now for a week and i havent had any problems with it...

                                  u can turn off keypad tones on the sound setteings menu... theres a separate menu for the keypad tones which includes an off option...

                                  the sliding fucntion isnt that bad.... it takes practice to get used to it... i slide mine by pushing the lower left side of the fone below the call button... it's easier for me that way..


                                  camera is nice... good enough to take pictures... if u want the best quality, buy a dedicated digicam...

                                  you can take pictures even if the slide is closed... if you twist the camera and you have an upside down screen, just press the volume key on the left side of the phone and it will fix it...

                                  i like the image editor... it easy to use...
                                  i really like the mosaic shots of the camera.. good feature... and good effects....

                                  video is great.. i can say its better than nokia (no offense though)... again, if u want a great video.. buy a dedicated videocam....

                                  mp3 player is good but not the best among mobile phones... of course se walkman phones are better.. but this phone will do...

                                  radio function??? im ok with the fact that it doesn't have a radio.. i dont really use that function from my previous phones..

                                  sms and mms: so easy to use...
                                  but it will take u a day to get used to it if you're new in using samsung phones...


                                  sms alerts??? i can only use the preset ones... im a bit annoyed coz sometimes i cant hear it when im in a crowd... but it will do... seven of the ten selection tones sucks.. hehe..


                                  games... hmmm.... not that bad... but also not good.. intalling java games is a bit complicated.. but there's a site that teaches u how to... the instructions a bit hard to understand.. but if you need any help, just post a message here... and by the way... DOES ANYBODY KNOW WHERE I CAN DOWNLOAD OTHER GAMES??????? the site i found contains a lot of downloadable games for samsung d600 but most of them needed a password of some sort so you can download them...

                                  when i installed a game on my phone (which by the way is a game for samsung d600 and d500) well i was able to play it... but it only used like half of the screen.. but all the functions good... i also intalled a some games that are compatible with nokia phones... i was able to play the games but it only used 1/4 of the screen... it's a bit hard to find games for this phone... but with a little luck and good web surfing techniques (hahaha), you'll eventually find some....

                                  picsel viewer is a nice function...

                                  the phone memory is great..
                                  they said you can use 1 gig micro sd... i dont know.. havent tried using one.... i use 512 mb.. and its great....


                                  cons bout this phone:
                                  -the battery is so average... well it's not that bad.. but if you're using the mp3 player with the speaker phones or even with earphones... it will suck your battery like hell...

                                        I'm very satisfied with this phone. Very slim, very good camera very good movie quality, very logical menu, very fine sound, security lock on all you can imagine if you are interested in this, better numeric pad than d800 very good screen quality, an advanced unit convertor.Very easy to use phone.
                                        Battery life between 2 and 3 days normal use and 3-4 hours listening Mp3.Charge time from zero can take 2 hours.
                                        Mp3 cannot run in background like d800 and this is very strange because d820 has an transFlash card and d800 has no card option. Anyway, sound quality is much better on d820 than d800 both on speakers and headphones.
                                        Buy it.
