I'm a Nokia phone user for a long time and i thought this D880 will make the step to switch to another brand; BUT sadly,,, greatly disappointed.. :'(
It was the best of the dual card phones available, the reason i got it..
OK! The phone looks good in terms of design, although personally i don't prefer the slide type..
I've been using it for two months and dropped it once but nothing wrong happened with it.. Heavy duty..
The camera is far less than you expect for 3MP, in addition to the bad quality of images that you get if the thing you are shotting is moving even slight movement. The camera sittings and options are great but useless with this bad camera..
Getting used to Nokia smart menus and easy options, i'm struggling doing multiple message-deleting or even sending a text..
The software is really stupid and the theme personalisations are veeery limited..
Don't let the attractive Samsung colors of the screen disguise you because soon you'll discover that they're the only nice fetures when using it..
Talking about the Duos function its the best available but still so annoying that you cannot send an sms or call from the secondary SIM without rebooting (which takes 40 seconds on average)..
The worst part for me that you cannot manage keypad lock by yourself AT ALL..!!
You have to wait 15 seconds till the screen automatically turns off and this happens whatever you're doing and on any screen..
The keypad locks once you are dialing a number and if you want to end it lags for several seconds; besides, you will need to unlock it again..
If you are a non-Samsung user, you'll discover the numerous annoying features of this phone.. My friends told me that other versions of samsung do not have the same problems..
Anyway, i'm SoOoOoOoOo disappointed using his phone and really regret it to the point that i don't want using two SIM cards anymore and wished to return it one week after buying it..
Pleeeeease Do NOT buy this phone..

jerry, 07 Nov 2008I bought this D880 just a month ago and it's quite good act... moreI've bought this model just for the dual sim capability in order to take advantage from the different pricing policies between mobile phones companies.
The quality of the material is not the best but is quite acceptable. The battery cover could be much more stiff and firm. I've realised that it has a very good camera in daylight shots. The camera mode is activated really fast in this model. The camera functions are plenty and very usefull. As with most mobile phones the shots in dark place are poor. Its menus are very simplyfied and easy. I find very good the calendar and the internet browser. In addition if you install the java opera mini 4.1 you'll have a very powerfull browser, compatible with nearly every site in internet.
What I find in general bad is the battery consuption. Under a mediocre usage I've to charge it at least every two days. However there is some solutions about that.
Firstly try lowering the brightness of the screen and enable a short period of time for the dim function . Disable the brightness in keypads as long as you don't realy need it .
Secondly if you really don't want both sims activated at all times is easy to deactive one of them without rebooting the phone, such a thing will prolonge the battery life at least one day.
Thirdly the radio FM and the Gprs especialy with the use of java Opera mini 4.1 will drain the battery after a few hours.
Fourthly avoid the permanent activation of bluetooth for the use of wireless headset. Use the wire headset instead and by deactiving the bluetooth you'll save much power.
The policy of samsung is to use different batteries for nearly every model in order to make the use of no name batteries difficult. Such a thing is really incovinient since the phone under normal use don't have big stamina and the need of spare battery is imminent. I guess the the reason of the low battery duration is its size, which is relatively very small for the size of the phone.
Somehtings else I find anoying is that when I connect the phone to PC in mass storage mode I can't receive or make phone calls.
The maximum size of microSD that operates normaly is 2 Gbytes and that is really very low when there is in the market HighCapacity microSD of 8 Gbytes reasonably priced. Also is imposible to change microSD cards without turning off the phone since it's situated behind the battery.
The media player of the phone is very basic but not bad at all and it plays mp3 and 3g videos.
The size of phone is quite big but is reasonable since it operates constantly with two different sims.
Keep in mind the only the first sims provide full mobile services at three band mode. The second sim is in only dual band mode and offer only phone call and sms. So be carefull at the first installation of sims. The side button for sellecting instantly the sim you need is really good.
If you ignore the dual sim function it's very overprised with similar single sim mobile phones. Nevertheless is very reasonably priced an I'd say unique with the constant dual sim support it offers.

Outer frame shinibg paints peels after 90 days normal use and scraches on screen being plastic. Sam has to improve its trade mark is looks gorgeous but finish horrible and fittings sub standard. Still it has not opted for any OS jumping on symbian WM or its own Dud one.Omnia or others have never clicked except innvo8 being symbian only. N95 after 2 years excepy cam. G800 810 were failure too.
