Samsung D900 / D900i Review
Phone rating:
In a nutshell: The superslim D900 is a supersexy sliding phone,
complete with a high quality 3 megapixel camera with flash and autofocus,
and a fully-featured music player with expandable memory to replace
your MP3 player. The D900 has been one of Samsung's most successful
phones and was the best selling phone of Winter 2006 / Spring 2007.
The D900i is virtually the same but with an FM radio.
Review: August 2006. Updated November 2007.
The
Samsung D900 puts the WOW! in WOW! FACTOR. Seriously, a phone this exceptional
doesn't come along very often, perhaps not since the Samsung
D500 in 2004.
You can tell we love the phone, so let's get on with the reasons why.
Firstly, this is the world's slimmest slider phone (now beaten by the
Samsung U600!). Samsung have really perfected
the slide design, and the D900 is silky smooth. The physical appearance
of the phone is unbeatable, with a lovely magnesium surface coating
and a small but functional keypad making the phone very tactile and
easy to use. The LG Chocolate and
the Samsung E900 may look cool with their
touch-sensitive keypads, but you can't beat the ease-of-use of a conventional
keypad. At just 13mm thickness, the D900 even beats the Motorola
RAZR in the thinness charts.
Looks aren't everything however, so let's move on to the next reason
for choosing the D900 - its 3 megapixel camera with autofocus. This
is simply the best camera currently available in any phone after the
Sony Ericsson K800i. It gives
results of amazing clarity, and what is really astounding is that Samsung
have fitted their best ever camera in their thinnest slider phone! We
are in awe. The video camera is also of high quality and records in
MPEG4 format. The display on the D900 is very finely detailed with outstanding
clarity and does full justice to the camera. Some reviewers are mistaken
in believing that videos cannot be viewed in full screen, but they can
- just press 1 to switch to full screen mode.
Next the music player. This handles a good range of formats - MP3,
ACC, ACC+ and e-AAC+ - and has very good sound reproduction with 3D
virtual surround sound and a digital power amplifier. The player is
easy to use with playlists of up to 30 tracks. You can use the stereo
headset supplied by Samsung or a wireless Bluetooth
headset. The built-in memory is 70 Mbytes, which is enough to get
started, but if you're serious about using the phone as an MP3 player
you can buy a Micro SD
card - a 512 Mbyte card costs around £15. The only real downside
on the music front is that there's no radio included.
The phone has all the usual features that you'd expect - messaging,
email, MP3 ringtones, speakerphone, Java games, etc, etc. The full spec
is listed below. There are a few bonus features - a document viewer
for viewing MS Office files, offline mode for use when listening to
music on a plane, a TV-Out connection for viewing images directly on
a TV screen, and EDGE for fast internet access. Connectivity is via
Bluetooth or fast USB. The user interface is very nice and friendly,
with a new menu design featuring a black background - very smart. Battery
life is good. One gripe is that you can't use an MP3 for the SMS alert
sound (same with all Samsungs), but good news - you can select
vibrate and ring simultaneously.
2006 has been an exciting year for phones, but the Samsung D900 has
got to be a serious contender for phone of the year. The D900i is virtually
the same as the D900 but it also has an FM radio (but is missing the
document viewer). The new Samsung U600
is even slimmer. The G600 isn't quite
as slim, but features a 5 megapixel camera and is an outstanding phone.
The D900 has been the best selling phone for the first half of 2007
and there are now some incredible deals available. Use our links at
the top right of this page to shop around for a bargain.

I had a D900 for 2 weeks then returned it. I found the camera to be
the worst on any phone that I've had. And yes I did have it on the correct
settings! You can't take a decent photo in anything other than bright
light or the shot comes out dark, grainy and usually a bit blurred.
I can't fault the phone in any other department and it looks great.
I just need a phone to take decent photos ( I use them in my business)
and unfortunately the D900 just doesn't. I exchanged it for a Nokia
N73 which takes good photos 99% of the time - it's not as pretty as
the D900 but at least it can take decent photos. Only gave it 2 stars
because I've never had to take a phone back before.

I've spent hours online looking at all the available phones from all
networks and I honestly think that the Samsung D900 is the best there
is at the moment. I just got mine this morning, after signing a new
contract, and without being too melodramatic: I was stunned! It is unbelievably
thin; I mean I knew that it's been dubbed the World's Thinnest Slider
but it's still remarkable when you hold it in your hands. However it's
size and weight aren't it's only merits, the 3 megapixel camera is fantastic
- second only to the Sony Ericsson K800i. I've been fiddling about with
it all day and the battery seems to have held up fine too. In my opinion
this is the best phone this year and may remain so for a while. ...but
(yes there's always a but) I do have one minor niggle: the lip at the
bottom does make it slightly awkward to press the 0 if you have chubby
fingers.

The D900 is a fabulous phone with it’s sleek and sexy design,
the camera is amazingly clear, and the 3 million pics is very useful
when you have forgot your digital camera and you want those quality
pictures. The video is very good but it seems that a few people out
there and a few on this page do not know how to get the full screen
on their video playback, all you need to do is PRESS 1 whilst the video
is playing. The reason I have only given this phone a 4 star is because
I have had to send 2 phones back due to poor built quality, my first
phone had a screen malfunction, and my second phone lost the use of
its back/contact button..

how intuative when returning to menu and even sub menus it returns u
to where u left off, previously had a d600 and found it cleaver but
not as user friendly as this, it looks great but u need some sort of
cover or screen guard to keep the good looks. shows a picture of big
ben at day time with clouds moving and birds flying during the day and
at night it changes automatically to a night scene with big ben and
shooting stars and fireworks this phone is so cool, must admit i was
a little dissapointed how similar it is to the d500/600 but the changes
made by samsung are worth paying the extra cash.

I have had this phone for about a day after waiting for it. I had never
seen this phone or even held it but it looked very very impressive in
the carphone warehouse book and so i bourght it on contract, so far
i am loving it, i took it to a wedding and took loads of pictures with
it and i am very pleased with the quality! Only problem is the video,
it seems a little pxelated when videoing but i hardly use tyhat anyway.
Its lous and is very slim, i dropped it and it hasnt even got a mark
on it so it is a tough phone too! A must have, its 200 texts and 50
mins for £20 a month from O2, GET IT!

This is the phone to have in 2006, probably 2007 and 2008 too. Superb
design, neat styling. Feels great in the hand with faultless slide mechanism.
Top spec camera, top spec display, and it plays music if youre bored.
Ive been playing with this for three days and battery is only down one
notch! Minor niggles are that I dont think its possible to change the
SMS alert sound. And the two second delay when the keypad unlocks is
irritating- although you can slide up to unlock. Also some MP3 files
are rejected when I try to load them- though they play fine on computer.
Also I would have made the max ringtone a bit louder. Altogether this
is a thing of beauty as well as a phone- looking forward to recording
some vids on it.

I got this phone yesterday after returning the LG Chocolate, and it
wins hands down! The screen/camera are amazing and the call clarity
is good. The only thing i would pick it up on is that it doesn't automatically
save sent text messages, and sometimes doesn't ask whether i want to
save them. If you don't need to go back for reference as I do, then
this should not bother you. If anybody does know how to set the phone
to save them automatically please tell me. Apart from that I would recommend

Pros: - Light, thin and very sexy looking phone. Slightly wider than
I thought, but this is not an issue for me. - Sliding mechanism, while
not as smooth as the D500, is smoother than the D600 and has very little
play. - Superb screen. Absolutely crystal clear and bright. - Camera
quality seems excellent (over 3MP), although I have not had a chance
to play around with photo features yet. - Menu system is intuitive,
very fast and quite similar to my previous D500, so no complaints there.
Cons: - SIM card slot! Having inserted my SIM card, it is now virtually
impossible to remove it without the aid of some tool. Unless you have
very small fingers and possess the grip of a vice, there is no way of
removing the SIM. Not of huge importance, admittedly, but an oversight
by Samsung and an unnecessary design fault. - Battery life. A full charge
lasted me just a few hours and I made/received no calls and sent only
a few texts. I spent a while entering all my contacts and generally
getting to know the phone and customising all the settings. I am hoping
battery life will improve once it has been charged a few times. - The
cover for the charger cable seems fragile and unnecessary. I wonder
how long it will last before coming off completely. Time will tell.
- The ridge which forms the bottom edge of the phone gets in the way
when using the three bottom keys (*, 0 and #). I have gotten around
this by adjusting my grip slightly but people with bigger fingers will
find this annoying. - Still no "profiles" as feature on the Nokias,
but I am used to this now as I have had a D500 for 18 months. But the
option would have been nice. Overall, the D900 is a superb phone and,
some minor niggles aside, I would highly recommend it.

I fist bought the LG KG800 Chokolate, and well I hated it, it felt so
limited, and sound was bad... so after 3 days I went back to shop and
swapped for the D900, and what a change. This phone is great. Menu system
is fast and easy, Camera makes great shots, sound is crisp and clear.
Reason I did not give it 5 start are few. No mp3 message sounds. Not
possible to connect your own headphones. Several Menu Items are greyed
out or missing, I guess it is related to the differences in Asia and
Europe Versions.

Is it possible to be in love with a mobile phone? :) Seriously though,
what an amazing phone. It has all the fanastic qualities of the previous
models and more. I upgraded a couple of days ago from the Samsung E350
which I have to say has served me well for a year, also a dinky little
phone. I have to admit having bluetooth is a luxury I had overlooked
in the past but its well worth paying that bit extra for it with any
phone. The camera quality is excellent, although doesnt quite beat the
Sony K800i. The phone itself is sleek and sexy, similar to the Motorola
Razr in size but obviously slides open instead of flipping, which is
sturdy by the way, doesnt feel like its going to fly off or break! I
would recommend this phone 100% - its great all round and I havent found
any faults as yet!!

First day of use, so far only two points of confusion (not in manual,
so lost a star on that): 1. How to edit an imported contact to add a
picture - can't seem to make link between photo/contact or contact/photo
in either direction. May be due to the contact being imported from old
phone v/s added as new. 2. How to modify the Incoming Text Message tone.
Can't set from sound file option, and set-up won't let me in either.
Perhaps something to do with Orange UK set-up. Ideas anyone?? Otherwise,
VERY happy with phone (upgraded from a SE W800, which had been nice
till camera broke 1 week after warranty expiry). To answer Bob Hurley,
yes the "DJ Markly" seems to be standard. Also to author "and", thanks
for the tip on turning keytones off.

Picked up mine yesterday, and I am absolutely flabbergasted by it. This
phone is so cool and sleak looking, with very user friendly menu's as
well, not to mention the 3 MP camera. Sound quality is excellent as
well. It is also really light-weight and thin. Only complaint I can
think of, is that you cannot hook up a regular set of earphones, it
connects through some bizarre plug. Does anybody know a workaround for
this? If you are in need of a new phone, do not hesitate and get this
one.

I received the D900 yesterday. I've used a D600 for the lat 18 months
and found it to be the best phone so far so decided to replace it with
what I expected to be an improvement. The new phone is slimmer, with
a marvellous camera and great display. I'm a little disapointed that
the charger from the old phone is different which means further expense
and I'm so far unable to find a way of changing the desk top theme.
My first impression is that it's not quite as well made as the D600.
Other than that it's a great phone.

Looks are deceptive with this phone - firstly i'll start with the plus
points. The phone couldn't possibly look any better, sleek, sexy and
sliding, top marks for appearance. The phyical qualites are excellent,
this phone must be the slimmest on the market at the moment not to mention
the lightest. Yet that's as far as it goes I'm afraid. The guys at Nokia
must be splitting at the sides with laughter at Samsungs latest D-series
edition. It simply does not compare to the sliding Nokia range. So as
anticipated here comes the moan. The phone is priced around the same
as the Nokia N80, N90 both of which are similar. Yet with the Samsung
D900 you do not get a memory card or built in fm radio. You cannot customise
your message alert tone - its a choice between the best sounding (sort
of cheesey not to mention embarassing) default tone. The video capture
cannot be played back in full screen, meaning that recorded and blue-toothed
video is played on a very disappointing small screen. Why have they
bothered with such a large screen? Itmay be of high quality yet it is
frustratingly small to decipher, and there is no way of changibng this.
The Nokia phones offer just as good a camera, yet they are able to offer
a memory card - which can be expensive, and a built in fm radio. I've
only had the phone for 1 day and already ive packed it back into its
box. In all, it's a very poor attempt from Samsung its no different
from its previous D-series apart from an up-graded camera and thinner
handset. The Nokia phones are pioneering the way forward at the moment.
Better value and more for your money.

The phone looks fairly nice and is ok to use once you get used to it.
I previously had the sony ericsson w800i. I feel that the camera, although
its a 3 megapixel camera, doesnt perform as well as the sony I had.
The pictures are slightly grainy and in poor light the flash doesnt
seem to make that much difference. Also, the menu sounds and the pen
sound when entering numbers are good, although to have them on you must
have the annoying "house phone" type key tones. When txting this is
really irritating!The ringtones arent the best and neither are the message
tones. I feel the phone is decent although, I do think Sony Ericssons
are better. Based upon looks I would say this is a much more attractive
design than the sony's. The Battery on the phone also leaves a lot to
be desired, i have to charge mine every day, which isnt a hassel, but
my sony ericsson did last around 5 days before having to charge. All
in all, a good looking phone with decent features, but I wouldnt say
the phone was outstanding.

Had my D900 for a day now, and I'd give it a 3/5. There are some annoying
flaws: Camera lag is about 2 seconds, with no way to reduce it. Cant
use my own tone for message alerts. Font size is too large and cant
be changed, wastes a great screen. SyncML is missing. That said it's
a great size and weight, really good screen and camera, and responsive.

i like samsung products...well built and stable esp d500 which i liked
a lot...so had no hesitation to order the d900 when i saw it a couple
of weeks ago on vodafone. All the issues people speak of can be sorted..i.e
video view full screen by pushing 1 key...keytones off by using volume
key when phone shut..if you encounter a prob just look it up on the

I got this phone as an upgrade from a D500. The user interface is similar
to the D500, so didn't take long to get used to. The phone is very good.
It's packed with features, and has an awesome 3mp camera. I have read
some reviews that slate certain things about this phone. I have to say
that from what I have seen on my phone, most of their problems stem
from not actually knowing how to use the phone properly. HEY YOU GUYS
- TRY READING THE MANUAL!! I rate this 5 out of 5. Worth every penny.

This is a great improvement to the D600 which was a good little phone.
D900 beats the E900 by miles cos the E900 has them pointless touch-sensitive
buttons which were a huge mistake for Samsung. But they got back on
track with the D900 which is great all over! The 3.2MP Cam is the best!
The only other mobile with 3.2MP is the Sony Ericsson K800 which is
huge, bulky and weighs a ton! Also the Cover for the Camera on the K800
keeps sliding down in your pocket. So if u was a phone that takes blank
photos in your pocket all day, get the K800. But if you want a light,
slim and a huge screen then get the D900. I know which one I'd get...

Right then - I took delivery of a SE K800i last week. After reading
a few reveiws (yes I know I should have done this first but....) and
trialling it for a few days, I sent it back as I wasn't happy with the
camera lens cover - it comes off easy and once its released the phone
is activated so if this happens in your pocket or bag, then your battery
runs down (very poor desgin) I also thought the keypad was on the small
side. Apart from these two gripes, the phone is the nuts, superb camera
and video and navigation is very user friendly. I swapped for a D900.
When I took delivery of this phone this morning, I was well happy, it
looks the part and feels good in the hand. However, what is happenin
with the video ? You record in full screen and it plays it back smaller
than the size of a stamp meaning you can't see anything. Half the screen
is taken up by a virtual keypad for you to stop/play/pause etc etc.
I've searched the manual and settings and can't find anything to suggest
you can watch video playback as you recorded it ie. in full screen.
I've bluetoothed a couple of vids to the phone and they are the same.........get
the magnifying glass out - Am I missing something? Samsung also missed
a trick by not putting a radio onto this model - why ? I am really tempted
to send this back and get the K800i back, what is the point of the big
screen if you can't use it ? Was nearly 2 stars - average !!!!

The camerea is great, except that it doesnt seem to take good ones at

so still gettin used 2 it so the settings may be wrong. Anyway, for
the person who asked about how much memory it has, well ive read that
it had 80mb, but in fact it is only 60mb, but it has the slot for MicroSD
cards, so u can have as much as you want. The one thing i wanted 2 ask,
when i got mine, the security seal was broken, but because it was the
last 1 in stock, i didnt want 2 not buy it. So when i got it all home,
it came with an mp3 called 'DJ Markly & Bungle' and was curious 2 whether
it comes on the phone, or someone has used it. I would appreciate anyone

Had this delivered today. First impressions were that it looks nice,
reasonable size, but not as small as expected (is infact similar in
size to my SE K750i), it also feels slightly flimsy when sliding. Shoved
a sim in and powered it up. Screen is good quality. Menus I find fiddly,
options aren't instantly obvious. Camera good quality but not as intuitive
as SE equivalent. sound is ok but not wonderful, loud but lacks clarity.
Can easily use mp3 as ringtone, but no option for a custom message tone
so are stuck with the rather dull default ones. Usb cable included but
needs software to transfer files to phone which is a tad poor. Vibrate
is very positive a bit too positive in fact! My real problems with this
phone came as i tried to type a text message in. The keypad looks ok
but the bottom three keys are far too close to the lip at the bottom
of the key pad (allowing the slide out to be flush with screen section
when closed) now my fingers are not the largest so chunky fingered people
beware! I'm sure it's a fine phone but 90% of my phone use is text messaging
and e-mail so this makes it a very time consuming and uncomfortable
process. I think it will be replaced by SE K800, asap!

I owned a Motorola V600 way back from its birth. It had it all, but
is now an oldskool phone! It was time to move on. When searching the
web for an complete phone I came to the D900. Naturally the D900 has
it all with more. As I came along the K800i I was wondering what to
do, but finally the D900 is my choice, why? For starters the form factor
is excellent, I tried them both (D900/K800i) and it lies fine in the
hand, the interface works fast and has some features that makes it all
a bit more beautiful. I’m not a fan on rubber slot doors, but
they are strong and open and close properly. The sliding mechanism works
smooth and feels really stable. The K800 is a bit simple in its form
and more from the same out of the old days, but the cyber shot with
xenon flash is excellent. But comparing the results of the images from
both the phones I came to the conclusion that they are not so different.
The Led flash on the D900 could be brighter! (K800i video in QCIF, D900
video in CIF) The memory slots where also one of the issues in my choice.
The K800i with it's Memory Stick Micro (M2) is not a good choice of
SonyEricsson as it is expensive and short on stock in my country and
others, so check it. The D900 has a more stable price worthy microSD
(TransFlash) card in it. As the form of D900 is only 12.9 mm thick,
I think this is a correct choice. The volume of the ring tone is correct
and voice clarity makes a call in unstable environments more clear for
the receiver. This is very great when in noisy places like bars or airports…
D900 over usb is not great v1.1 but who uses it! BT 2.0 is all we need.
More in a month or so…

lets the phone down big time. The D900 is slimmer, looks better, has
a better keypad and the camera is hidden. Would have liked a memory
card but then the micro sd card is a lot cheaper to buy than the sony

to edit photos on the memory card it won't let you do it and when i
decided to try to transfer all files back to phone so pics would fill

on pc with samsung pc suite and when you try to export it back to phone
it says file not supported too large,whats that about.the pics im trying

within a few mins,also when you want to use a wallpaper or tune from

copy to phone in order to use it,totally defeats the object of having
expandable memory as what happens when your phone memory is full,your
going to have delete stuff in order to make use of the files-STUPID
STUPID ,also why can't you specify which memory you want to save files
to phone or memorycard like sony's it's so annoying and you should be
able to have the option in settings. But now i have calmed down and
still loving it anyway cuz apart from them annoying problems it's great.Now,lets
get onto the positives of this little gem eh! the camera is excellent,AUTO
FOCUS YAY !!!! (finally) and even better when you manually change camera
settings such as white balance,iso etc,the flash is excellent and the
pictures are crystal clear with all the extra features on the camera
such as effects,frames,mosaic shots(lots of fun these are)the video
is clear and sharp also with the same features offered as on camera
too.It's slim and sexy and matt black so doesn't pick up greasy finger
marks like the e900.The buttons give a positve click too.Im glad to
see that samsung seem to be listening to us customers as they have put
one or two basic ringing tones on this phone and the vibetonz too so
it will ring and vibrate at same too.the battery is okay,not as long
as SE but not as bad some other samsung models at present.Volume of
tones is good and loud and i have not missed any calls/texts at all
even in loud environments,so in conclusion i think this phone will be
very popular as it is an excellent one and i do love it enough to put

spotted one, the Samsung D900 a phone that would be the size of the
V3 and easy to use, so on the 31st of July I got one and it has been
great, I got it on an O2 contract and it came with plenty of games too.
The camera is good, easy to use etc, texting is easy, making and reciving

it's a good phone. Nice n light. Buttons r a bit fiddly at first. Battery
leaves a lot to be desired. I have to charge the E900 two three times
a week compared to my K750i which lasts for ages. As for the D900...
upgraded version of D800 but bit too plasticky n wide for my liking.

My Samsung D900 was an upgrade from the D500. Im going to list the D900
good points and bad points. Good Points: Touch sensitive Buttons Nice
size display Generous internal memory Upgradable memory Nice camera
Bad Points: Touch sensitive buttons (if you got fat fingers) The display
doesnt stay on permantly (unlike D500) The display stays on all the
time its being charged (anoying when its by your bed at night)
