I really like this phone very much but why there is so complaints about this. I just don't understand and shut up your big mouth if u are saying bad things. I hope it can upgrade to 8GB memory and 1800mah battery as soon as possible. Please tell me the details as soon as possible.

I've found another con when dialling phone number under sunlight.......the reflection of sunlight from the stainless steel metal blind the eyes.

-This phone is well made. Look is very personal.
-Features quite lousy.......not even a dictionary nor radio.
-There is no vibrate & ring feature.
-Searching for available network (especially in manual mode) is extremely slow.
-Lots of static from the speaker phone when turn up the ring volume to 4/5.
-The camera quality is only acceptable.
-Prints are a bit too small to read comfortably; except those for dialling a phone #.
-Ring volume too quiet & the ring quality from the speaker is un-impressive.
-Not comfortable to handle (too wide).
The battery standby time lasted longer than I had expected.
My advise :- If anyone like this phone because it's made from stainless steel; buy the Nokia 8800 if you can afford the extra cost (I own both of them).

Hi Fred, there doesn't seem to be any option for the sms to save to the phone automatically.
Well I've had this phone for just over a week now and I'm still loving it. The only thing I don't like is the usual Samsung lack of 'vibe and ring' option. So if anyone nows where I can download a 'ring ring' type tone with built in vibrate let me know!

Dear Nigel,
Thanks for your advice.
However, is there anyway to set the sms automaticallt stored to the phone when it arrives. It seems like all the sms are automatically stored in all other phones except this one.
Thanks again.

had the phone for 1 week and impressed thus far. agree that the phone must be seen in person to get a good idea of quality, design and size.
Overall the phone has good features and best of all is the unique design and size. my previous phone was the V3 and i like them both. everyone has the V3 so i bought this when i lost my V3

Bought the Samsung P300 last week. It is a fantastic looking phone and very comfortable to hold/ definitely an eye catcher. I have, however, returned the phone and am in the process of purchasing the new Sony K800i. For me the limitations of the phone outweigh the cool design. My main criticims are:
1) Very bad audio quality (documented design flaw) - ask the person you have called to report back on how clear the call is.
2) Very quiet ring tone and no vibrating call.
3) Rather poor camera (compared to the 2/3mp phones available now).
Despite these problems it is a nice phone but I figured I would be bored of it after a couple of months and would be tied to an 18m contract.

Hi Fred, texts are stored automatically to the sim, to move to the phone open the message, hit 'options' then option 4 is 'move to phone'.
And no you can't change the SMS tones, your stuck with whats on the phone.

Just got the phone. Have 2 questions that I can't figure out, see if anyone out there can help me out.
1. All the sms I received were stored in the simcard, how can I change to store in phone.
2. Can I use my own mp3 music as the SMS ringtone?
Thank you very much in advance.

My phone arrived today and so far I am impressed, the "0" key takes some getting used to and I must say that the sound is not that loud ringing and I have found that I have missed a few calls, could this be a ploy to get me to ring people back, very impressed with the overall quality of the phone, My last phone was a black berry, and a V3i this is much better. I would highly recomend that you see it a shop first as the web images do not do it justice.

I weighed it on the postage scales in my office so give or take a couple of grams it should be correct.

Nice looking phone. Look delicate but is very strongly build(good quality).
I brought one about 10 days ago but never have the chance to use it yet as I have been away on a business trip to Beijing, China.(I brought with me my Nokia 8800 & a very nice looking China made mini PDA phone with me). I am quite excited to try out/play with the P300 when I am free at home tonight. I shall keep you guys posted on my opinion of the P300.

Nigel,
Thank You for the information. May I ask you though, did you weigh it? Sorry to be a pain about this, but a dealer insures me it weighs 65g, and it makes a difference I think.
Thanks
Anders

neQk's right. The point of this phone is the design. The fact that samsung was able to put the features that this has is amazing enough. I mean check it out: its a phone, 1.2mp digicam, video recorder, calculator, organizer and mp3 player that fits in your calling card case!!! Its the size of a stack of credit cards! C'mon, that's amazing no matter how you look at it.

It weighs 79g or 140g with the case.
I got this phone last week in the UK, and it is the most amazing phone I have ever owned, my last phone was the V3i and this is far better. I'd say to anyone that hasn't actually had this phone in there hands and used it to keep there opinions to themselves until they have. Most reviews on here have missed the point of this phone, your not buying this for gadgets your buying it for the unique design. But even saying that since the specs are pretty much the same as the D500 thats a big bonus. The screen is the best I have seen on a mobile, it's very clear and bright even in direct sunlight. The battery life has been amazing and that's without the second battery built into the case. Signal strength and call quality are pretty much the same as the V3i.
I haven't found anyone that has tried my phone saying they don't like the design, my girlfriend was one of the 'ha! Calculator' people, she has ordered one this morning after trying mine.
Go to a shop and actually try one out!
