    No memory stick? cmon, don't simply spam if u don't know.....

    I would like to know about the camera's shutter speed. Is it really that slow that you can't get a good pic out of it?

    And, can any real users post a detailed review, instead of like wat most ppl do here, juz come n spam pointless ideas? Cause i think a lot of ppl are interested to know about sound quality,camera,battery life,user friendlyness,etc etc.....post something productive like what Harrison or Fish did

          got my phone at last from o2, what a wait.

          just got rid of the w800 for this not sure if its the right thing to do.

          keys are fine do take getting use to.
          themes are rubbish.
          no memery card.
          no t.v. leads.
          no screen saver.
          screen is totally black in sleep mode not even clock.
          cannot set calender as background.
          cannot change msg tones.
          slide feels flimsy compared to d500.

          i will give it a go it does look good and seems to make calls but am a little disapointed

                Some users ask if E900 support 1 and 2 Gb microSD (TransFlash). E900 supports 1 Gb cards but I have no idea about 2 Gb

                    Some people just flame it without any thought. "THIS FON IS SHITTY CAUSE ITS IN BLACK". My.....they working for other company? lolz. Slider crappy? cmon, samsung made uncountable number of sliders already. Touch sensitive lausy? Get out of this forum and go get a phone with buttons instead.

                    One interesting part is the battery. The capacity of the battery is known, but why does people complaint about the battery life? Maybe the screen is drawing too much power?

                    Can any real user put a good full review here, about every aspects, battery, user friendlyness, download/upload, camera, ringtone(wma/mp3),wallpaper,file formats that it supports, etc etc...(Fish,want to try to post one to avoid "unwanted posts", once and for all?)

                    P/S: still waiting answer for my question :P

                      i find the battery to be awesome. I charged it on thursday and its now monday and its still goin on full bars. the touch keypad is easy once you get the hang of it.

                        Hi,
                        I was wondering if anyone else is having a problem trying to load an audio file directly from the memory card to a playlist?

                        When I try to add to a playlist from the memory card I get an 'empty!' message. Even though there is 500Mb worth of wma/mp3 on there!

                        This means I have to copy the files to the phone's internal memory and then fill the playlist from there.

                        Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

                          • ?

                          No offence but half the things people are talking about is a load of rubbish. The Inbox displays a bit of a message. Who Cares. Just open the message, you only have to press 1 button. The Sensitive buttons are too sensitive. Either buy a case i.e Body glove (Only £8.99 on internet shops) or simply just get a protector seel which covers the top of the phone. this will avoid the buttons being too sensitive (hopefully) For people who were not aware most Samsung phones vibrate when you put the phone on silent. Whats the big deal with that. Samsungs Battery is also a problem apparently. I have at the moment a Samsung E720 and before I got it a Reviews said the battery lasted 3 days. I managed to get two whole weeks! The Samsung E900 is a good phone

                                  I just baught this phone two weeks ago and the battery terminal/ headset jack is broken so I can't charge the phone or hook it up to my computer. I contacted Samsung, and they told me that since the phone is not intended for U.S. use, they cannot repair it or anything.Its a good phone, I like it, but dont get it if you live in the U.S.A.. reception is bad and so is the customer service.

                                    I bought the E900 two hours ago, i'm waiting now to finish work to take it back

                                    The E900 was to be my fifth Samsung phone, i love samsung, it's great, even my laptop is samsung, so although the touch pad on this phone had been given a bit of a bashing, i thought ah, it's still a samsung

                                    the touch pad is very light but you just have to get used to being more cafeful, not a huge problem, what i don't like is in you inbox it tells you who hte message is from and then the first line of the message

                                    e.g

                                    12.35 Sean
                                    can you go and get some dinner

                                    it is same for contacts

                                    e.g

                                    joe bloggs
                                    3939495959393

                                    i personally think this looks soooooo tacky and i cannot stand it, therefore it is going back, my other four samsungs just have contact name or who message is from not numbers and messages shown

                                    i think it looks awful this thing, and the choice of theme either black or white is also pretty poor really

                                    shame there aren't pictures of different screens on phones!!

                                      I bought my E900 a few weeks ago and there are some problems I would like to adress.

                                      The biggest problem I have is the short battery life, when used normally on a day, you'll have to recharge every day. the menu can't be changed colours, it stays orange with white or black. Most of the games on it are tutorials wich you have to buy. the button in the middle is very loose and some of the touch keys are way too sensitive while others aren't sensitive at all. It doesnt have an option for vibrating and calling at the same time, first it vibrates then it makes a sound.
                                      THere aren't many ringtones on it, so if you want a better ringtone you'll have to download one or put a mp3 file as your ringtone. It isn't practical to use, especially if you're used to SonyEricsson mobiles.
                                      Fragile phone wich gets easily scratched.

                                      A few positive points:
                                      The phone looks very good, slick design, good sound quality, price/quality is good. Lots of memory on it, you can have like 20 songs. good image/cmaera recording.

                                        thats weird, cuz there is no "none" option for camera sounds
