Samsung Ultra - D830, X820 and D900 - read the full textToday Samsung announced a new model series - the so called Ultra, which includes the bar phone Samsung X820, the slider phone Samsung D900, and the new clamshell Samsung D830...

 

Will be useless within a year? What do you mean? All phones get outdated within 6months... Useless? I think that is the wrong choice of words. They will be still completely useful: making phone calls, practical and im sure it will serve its owner well. Tell me a phone that is not outdated (or as u say,useless) within one year????

All the comments above is rubbish... These phones are freaking great. Just looka at them... and I'm sure they will be even more spectacular in real life. Who wouldn't want a sexy and slim as phone they ones above? Cheap? Design wise, that slider must be the most breath-taking out there. The folder one outclasses the slugish and ugly menu of the motorola razr... Im not so sure about the bar one though.. But these phones are great! No one makes phones like the Koreans

I do like the look of the Samsung D900. It's so thin! The only Samsung phone I've ever used personally is the outdated X497.

I think Samsung is really going for it now! These models are great. Phones that you can easily carry with you and now really easy to use with the Samsung OS...Wow

Hey!!!!...Samsung doesnt rip designs off of anybody.Thats like saying that sanyo came out with a candy bar phone....then motorola came out with one too!Its a design concept...thin...slide...flip...its nobody's idea.Cellphone companies have been dreaming up these phones from day one and now the technology is here they can do it.It's just that moto comes out with them first,but i think samsung lets them do that because they know that all their phones that are meant to compete with moto are better.Like the razr...its just like every other damn moto...but the blade(a900)..had a 1.3 cam,mp3 player,qvga screen,and so many other things that the razr could only dream of....even the v3i doesnt compete with the a900!And the slvr...well this new candy bar slim phone from samsung has a mp3 player,2 mp cam,and way thinner.....its way better than the slvr.Also moto doesnt really make that many sliders...neither does nokia.So SAMSUNG DOES NOT RIP OFF DESIGNS!

I'm a Nokia lover, and I must say that these Ultra-phones are very-very nice. The bar, the slider, and the calmshell are so thin and look fabulous. But then again, I'll stick to my Nokia. IMNSHO, preferences aren't arguable. Even if they built bricks. I'll always love my Nokia. Go Nokia, Go Samsung, Go to the he** SE. =)

N80 Lover... Your phone isn't exactly the pinnacle of original ideas either. People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones!

These phones sound ok tech-wise, nothing hugely groundbreaking, but it's the weight of them that will make waves. Under 10mm AND under 100g?! With a 2Meg camera and memory slot? That 9.9 sounds a bit fancy, can't wait to see how it runs.

I swear.. Samsung rips ideas off EVERY OTHER PHONE manufacturer there is in design and concepts.

Go to hell, Samsung phones..

How do you get a D900? Um, i think you just buy one when it's released, just like any other phone...

Its nice to look at, has features to satisfy any techno freak. But its just too thin! What if you sit on it accidentally?. Its way too fragile to be used everyday. But the perfect fashion accessory for when next you go to the hottest party on the block. 10 for beauty, 8 for feature set, and 2 for all round flexibility.

Thin - Yes but the design is far from impressive. I am not a big fan of Rzr either.

My only problem would be, the screen resolution isn't that low and becuz the battery would be thinner, how abyssmal can the battery life get? Would we be seeing Nokia N80 battery life? (Or less?)

With the exception of the D600 and the x700, i dont remember ever Samsung coming out with a decent battery life phone. This will probably have even shorter life then thier normal range. Sadness as the phones look the part and have the features.
