Hi guys! Ive had the samsung x820 for a year now and must say that of all the phones that ive had (for some weird reason fones dont usually last with me for a year except this one)this one is SUPERB!!! it is very slim - never fails to make people get awed, lightweight - i have a habit of circling fones between my fingers and this one usually flies off, in connection with that VERY STURDY. ive dropped this too many times to mention, and i mean dropped-it-battery-popped-out kind of dropping. yes it is one of the old models, though still the slimmest to date but personally, it is one of Samsung's masterpieces!

I am pleased with it!

u could have enabled the Mobile tracer functionality which is available in the Security section in the Settings menu. That might have helped u out in finding the culprit...

I purchased a Samsung X 820 in the Uk in 2007. It made it to 2008, just. I had to send it back to the UK for repairs, because Samsung Australia were not willing to assist with one of their companies'faulty products.
I have been advised by the repair company in the uK that it was irreparable.
The 'fault'with the phone was in the design, in that it was made up of layered plastic that had a weak point midway that termonated at the screen top. This ended with the phone virtually breaking in half.Of course if you purchase this model be prepared to invest in $ and time to get it repaired if it fails. Other than that the phone was absolutely great technically.
I am advised by the repairer in the UK that the phone is now not avalable and has been supeceded.
They replaced mine with a Nokia 6500

Best of luck

Bought this phone 2 years ago. It is for people who have style and for those who don't care about technical characteristics. It's more like a jewel than a high-tech toy. If you go to parties often then get this phone. If you stay at home every night... don't get it. ;)

Enter

==>Light Settings
==>Keypad Light
Alter the setting to ANY TIME.
This will help u out.

For newbies(new mobile users), most of the guyz will have trouble in accessing and having a good feel on the device keys.
It will take approx 2 months(max) to become 90% comfortable with the X820 keypad.
