I try to avoid posting here nowadays.
Nothing personal, its just that there are too many childish remarks from time-wasters who can't afford to buy anything for themselves in the first place.
I have a number of gsm phones, ranging from I-mate, Sony Ericsson, Motorola, Nokia and LG.
So before you start with your pointless comments, I'll let you know now that I've used most of these popular devices way before they became popular.

I've owned this phone for a few months now and I really love it. Its a beauty to look at and it works VERY well. However, the battery life is truly a joke (I had to get a spare battery from Plemix) and I don't like that it can't ring and vibrate simultaneously (Ring THEN Vibrate is the best you get).
Someone here mentioned jpegs not showing. I'm able to get GIFs and JPEGs to work as my wallpaper, but you'll need to resize them to 220 x 176 for optimal veiw because for the screen size/design.
I'd say more, but the phone has already been reviewed here. I will tell you all point blank...this is my favorite phone right now and for a guy like me who swaps out his phones almost every 3 weeks...that's saying a lot.
Peace and Love to you all.

      Oh, I forgot to ask:
      Does this phone has at least a soft ringing sound??? Because if it does, then SAMSUNG is a magic brand that inveted hearable ringing chip that is 6.5 mm thick!!!

        The phone itself offers a real slim look and has lot of currently popular and user friendly features, however being a heavy user, the battery is a main thorn in the back of the phone as it lasts almost not more then a day which makes it a lesser choice for a heavy phone user like me despite its other attractions. Secondly no notes feature and no themes to download.

          Hi...my frend just got the x820. however wen u set the wallpaper jpeg images wont show up. only bmp or gif seems to be working. Is it a fault or just samsung didnt cater for jpeg wallpapers.

            Phone charms? On this good looking phone? Hmmm...you can SUPERGLUE the charm right beside the camera pinhole. But in my opinion a cracked screen would look better on this phone.

              Verizon works on CDMA network as far as I know. So far i havne't seen any report of this coming in CDMA version.

              However T-mobile will be launching this GSM one in US soon.

                    Exelent piece of art work, however the only and the worst drawback is NO MEMORY CARD SLOT.

                          very post modern design.
                          really good screen colours
                          very low battery and the keyboard's main joystick is not for 'big' fingers

                                  hi people

                                  i have just got this phone, i am trying to get on the internet.

                                  it opens the hotmail home page, but i cant type in my address or password and open my account.

                                  it then comes up with a page saying that the browser doesnt support the java script.

                                  is it not possible to go to hotmail on this phone?

                                  is this a settings problem from my provider or is it a phone problem.

                                  strange as i can go and check my email on my old samsung d500.

                                  help please.

                                  cheers

                                      I have been using this phone for 5 days. Excellent performances and features.

                                      Battery life is a bit short, about 2 days. Luckily my package comes with two batteries and it can be charged by itself with a charging box. SO I can use the phone while the other battery is still charging.

                                      The camera is a disappointment for 2MP.

                                        STOP posting negetive comments using MY NAME.

                                        USE YOUR OWN NAME.

                                        This is the thinnest phone and of course its worth the money.
