Saw the X820 @ the shop. It is super amazingly thin, compact & lightweight! How i wish it comes in combination of silver/black, it'd b more appealing in the aesthetic dept then.

Is it true X820 CANNOT vibrate+ring simultaneously?

      i have this phone

      battery life from first charge was about 2 1/2 days

      cameras fine not that i use it, memory is not an issue as all my mp3 ringers are compressed sensibly

      doesnt feel like its going to break and the screen isnt too small.

      bluetooth 2.0 is quick enough however would have liked a data cable in the box like my LG KG800 has.

      cant understand why it doesnt have vibe & ring though, quite annoying.

      good phone though 8/10

        You sound as if you own a warehouse of all samsung phones.
        Whats the last time you used one?
        from what i knew you never liked their models.You are just a hater, nothing more than that.

          Terrible battery life.
          Feel like made of cheap plastic.
          Although thin, too wide & long.....not nice to hold when talking.
          Low ring tone volume & speaker volume.
          Cheap quality handsfree speakerphone.

          To be honest, this cheap phone is a piece of junk!

            also: unlike the motorola, this phone is not slow in operation.

              i use this phone a lot for messaging and the battery easily lasts me 3 days. to increase battery life, screen brightness can be reduced and keyboard light can be set set to be used only between certain times. had D600 before which had an awful battery life (I'm talking half a day). x820 screen is amazing and menu comes in "black" and "white" and is very modern - not the usual samsung menu.

                Here are the things I don't like about the phone. (had it for 2 days)

                1. Battery Life is SHORT!!! (you need a charger @ home/car/office)
                2. All Contacts are listed in phonebook insted of just primary name.
                3. Cannot assign a funciton to the Soft-Keys
                4. Video record time is short!
                5. You can't creat shortcuts for a lot of items.
                6. No Memory Slot

                Sometimes i think it's too thin! If the entire phone was as thick as the camera end, it would still be sexy and hot and improved all the above issues.

                  Price of the X820 already dropped down to around US$250(depending on the store mark up).......almost half what it cost a couple of months ago when it first came on the market!

                      This model will come out to Tmobile USA under Samsung SGH-T619. Exactly the same but different color (gray instead of black). Tmobile will also come out with another slimmer slider much like the D820 they currently have out right now. I have no exact time when Tmobile will release these phones. But im hoping sometime this fall. I really wanna get my hands on it.

                          Sabri - I put it in the front pocket and dont have any worries about it breaking. Just dont lean on anything to make sure. It's easy to forget you even have it as its so light and unobtrusive.

                          you can text with the mp3 on. Just no bluetooth or tv out with the mp3 on. its in the manual

                            again - do you put this phone into the pocket of your pants? don't you be afraid that the phone might break?

                              i love............the blue one. but how will i get one? i don't think they are now selling those others colors here in middle east, especially bahrain.

                                    I bought the x820 a few days now and I can honestly say that it’s perfect in every way! It makes my old phone (Motorola v3) look like yesterdays news….And it is!
                                    Comparing the size, features, and refreshing new trendy style of x820; other slim mobile phones at this moment, cannot compete!
                                    only set backs are that it does not accept a memory card, so your stuck with a 80mb phone and its fragile so you must look after it carefully!
