Stylish design, but sounds like speaking underwater, had replacement but same problem with the new one. Also, sounds like the call has been cut off halfway through, but comes back on again. Wouldn't recommend.

I was really happy when i bought it. it took me 10 min to select the mobile. But i guess, there is a problem with the display which went cranky suddenly after 2 months. when i went to service centre, they just replaced a bus inside. they didnt even ask what other problem i had. they even had a replacement pouch ready. thats when i wondered whether the same problem exists in other mobiles too. Being a samsung fan, it wasnt a good experience.

Just got a Samsung D840 and I'm v pleased with it, but have managed to put the wrong SMS service centre number in. Can anyone tell me how to delete this so I can enter the right one?

The phone is really annoying, with no software compatibility it's a thing to palaver for its users already. Even the servive centres arn't good enought to regard the problems quickly. The battery back up is just 13-15 hrs on stand-by..rather say the battery is faulty. I advice not to buy such a toddler with just chrome covering and nothing else and flaws everywhere.

My bluetooth on my samsung D840 when faulty 7 days out of warranty . Spoke to Samsung and were not interested in helping then I had the phone repaired at company recommened by my service provider. A month later , same problem - repair company closed down and no one around to uphold guarantee on phone. Spoke to Samsung again - Not interested . I feel once the sale is done , Samsung gives no customer help.

very short battery life - less than 2 days on the second brand new battery that they've sent me.how many of you have this problem? also the speaker quality is very poor with a metallic,tinny sound on most calls including the 121 voicemail service.anyone want to join me on a march to downing street to take this further?

I have had this phone for 3 days now and am disappointed with the quality of the speaker. Either on normal or hands free setting the quality is not as good as my old D500. It sounds a bit like it is being put through some sort of voice Synthesiser giving the caller a computer like quality to their voice. The mic also goes quiet when near my computer so that the person on the other end can barely hear me....my old phone didn't do that. Has anyone else experienced these problems or is it a fault with my handset only? Yes....the battery life is also VERY poor.

THIS PHONE IS GREAT! i just got it today!
TIGHT FEATURES
*themed wallpaper is animated based on service (good service= clear skies, bad service=Cloudy skies)birds fly during the day and commits during the night..
- and changes on location e.g. USA has the statue of liberty. or like europe would prolly have the leaning tower or something as a wallpaper..
*radio shows what song is playing on the station. artist name and song title
* has a flashlight
* lots of internal memory
* has all the basic features a normal samsung but has more options.
-ringtone alarms can be music, stock tones, or dl sounds.
* camera is average. but that doesnt matter cuz i have a digi cam.
* speakers are pretty loud.

overall this phone has cool features and a fantastic design. light weight, thin and smooth slider.

the ONLY CON that i ran into so far is the middle 'I' button.. sometimes it gets in the way of scrolling. since its elevated i sometimes push it on accident.

>> i will soon post a video on this phone and it's features soon

Absolutely awful. Had replacement phone - still no good. Does not hold charge - standby time is less than 3 hours (so up to 250 hrs is way off the mark!)
