Had mine over a year now, got a used one from ebay. Has been very reliable, still slim & slylish for a 2006 design and can cut it today. Fairly robust and a nice screen, average battery life, camera 3mp ok in daytime but led flash not so good. Prefer it to the U series with touch sensitive buttons. (read more)

Written on: 07/02/2009
The Samsung D900 is compact, easy to use slider phone. Reasonable camera. Calendar convinent and straightforward operation.
This is the very first cell phone ever that I have used where the screen has cracked! One day during use the screen gradually darkened and then a crack appeared across it but BENEATH the surface. The actual screen was not cracked but the LCD display was.
I have now upgraded to a Samsung G600 which is similar but somewhat improved (i.e. 5.0 megapixal camera, smarter...

Quite east to use, stylish, slim, and lots of memory and also extendable memory. Loud, and clear music. And the samsung pc studio is very easy to use and quick. The camera is very good and nice quality. And its a stunning colour that black just finishes it off nicely.
Its a very good phone the only one down fall which samsung should sort out is the lcd screens break quite easily.

I was very pleased with this phone when I received it, but long before my contract expired the LCD screen cracked. All I did was slide the phone open and the pressure of my thumb was enough to cause the damage. As always the phone company deny liability and Samsung as expected tried to claim it was damaged by the user. Read other reviews and make you re own mind up!!.
Samsung customer service is appalling. They had my phone a month and never contacted me once. When I chased them up myself...

I was very pleased with this phone when I received it, but after just over a year of use the LCD screen cracked. All I did was press my thumb on the screen and slide the phone open. I presume it was the cumulative effect of pressure on the same spot. As expected 02 blamed the manufacturer and asked me to sent it to Samsung. Samsung had the phone for a month and never had the courtesy to call me. I phoned them twice and was promised callbacks that never happened. Then I was told it was being... (read more)

I'm pleased with this as my first camera phone. It feels soo much smaller than my previous Nokia 3500i - hardly surprising really - as I had that for ages.

Samsung D900 Review - Screen cracking, keypad jammed after 1 yr and 6 months, the volume is very low, no fm radio, the memory card is not worth it buying it gives you a lot of hassle to use it !!! it doesn`t do all the features as it tells you in the book !!

I like the appearance of the Samsung D900 because of its sleek and thin format. highly recommended!

Written on: 30/04/2008
My d900 has been dropped down the stairs, into water twice, onto pavements, roads, floors. It just bounces and then works fine!
So they screen cracking thing doesn't happen all the time I'd say.
Overall I love this phone, it's been great. Only now, after 2 years am I having to trade it in (it's suddenly stopped texting). Overall though, easy to use, reliable, hard wearing and hard working.

Was happy originally but must admit cannot wait for my time to run out so can get an upgrade. When I close the screen after texting the wording is still visible -therefore I think the screen is on its way out. Also it does not seem to keep charged for very long and signal can be temperamental.Wouldn't recommend. (read more)

Do NOT buy a Samsung D900. The phone is not fit for purpose. My screen cracked (bled) internally for no apparent reason after just 6 months. Didn't drop it, didn't put pressure on the screen. Whilst only 6 months old and still within the 12 month warranty, Carphone Warehouse abdicated all responsibility for the product they sold me for £360, fobbing me off to Samsung. Samsung automatically denied the fault is a manufacturing one (which it clearly is, just read other blogs!) and said there is... (read more)

After a week's use I am impressed by the handiness and feature set of this phone. Good pictures, sound,calls and very customisable. Good for "posing". But, Because the battery is very poor with a measly 750 mAH, with a vulnerable, easy to scratch screen,I will be using this phone only for a night out, etc. For regular speech use I will continue with my 3510i. It lasts nearly 2 weeks between charges (original battery!) and you can't beat that fact for genuine reliability and convenience. (read more)

I have had my Samsung D900 for little over 10 months, and it has served me quite well over the past few years. It is a stylish and slim phone with good looks and a nice bright screen. A micro SD card slot allows for large memory - I have upgraded mine to a 1GB card. However, this is negated because of the frankly awful music player system on this phone. To play any selection of music on this phone (which is unrewarding because of the dreadful headphones), you must create a separate playlist... (read more)

Written on: 05/10/2007 by kenkanobi
Don't get the Samsung D900. I had it for about 3 months. Didn't drop it or hit it, it just cracked. This is due to the poor slider quality requiring the user to press on the screen to open the phone. Reception is atrocious and once it cuts out completely (eg. due to train tunnel) it takes AGES to decide that its got reception back, even though you know it should have reception. (read more)
“The Samsung D900 is an OK phone. ”
Written on: 23/08/2007 by draegon (9 reviews written)
The Samsung D900 is an OK phone.
It lets you stay in contact with other people so good on that point, but if you want a phone with great features, this is NOT it!
Picture quality is poor for a 3MP camera and the music file access is just plain crazy.
If you just go on looks though, you won't be too far off.

Overall, I'm fairly pleased with my D900, BUT some things do need to be improved. I find texting quite a palaver and I get really annoyed when numbers keep appearing instead of letters. Also I find if you hit the wrong key it automatically asks you if you want to save the text to draft! Why cant you just go back to where you left off?
My main gripe is the signal, I seem to always have less signal than other people, even if we're in the same vicinity and on the same network. Another thing I...

DON'T Buy this phone. I have had my D900i for just over a month and to my horror I found out it has an extremely week screen and cracks under very little pressure. Not to mention the reception seems poor and when other people call my phone they hear a loud annoying buzzing sound. Plus the software for the computer is faulty as I cannot transfer my text messages due to an error. Samsung were unable or unwilling to assist in fixing these problems so do yourself a favour and DON'T BUY THIS PHONE. (read more)

All in all this phone is very good, I've had it now for about 2 months. Haven't had time to play with the music player side of things yet- but hopefully will do soon, specially with the 1gb card I've put in it.
Would highly reccommend this phone as its slim and easy to use. I have accidently dropped the phone and no scratches or anything yet so quite a tough little thing!!

Firstly I would like to say I own the O2 exclusive Chrome Samsung D900. Ok now for the review, i will try to lay it out in sections to make it easy to read and understand;
1. Looks- Until recently the looks of a phone was not my top concern, I was more interested in what the thing could actually do!! Well as I mentioned before I have the chrome version of this phone, I didn't like it when I seen the looks of it in the shop.. but now it has grown on me and I love it. It is not a cheap look.....

Written on: 13/02/2007 by rabc2000 (2 reviews written)
The first thing that catches your attention with the D900 would be its 12.9mm (0.5") thickness, which is almost half that of the D600, and yet still not as wide as a lot of other slim phones. The D900 is extremely flat, the slight protrusion under the screen gives an anchor for pushing up the screen with one's thumb. The D900's keypad is surprisingly user-friendly, overall a good all round phone worth every penny. (read more)

The glass underneath the screen broke within 24 hours of purchasing it. Like your previous reviewer, I had to pay to have my Samsung D900 mobile phone repaired. Less than three weeks later it has since broken again. Samsung were very unhelpful when I complained. They told me to take it back to where I purchased it; yet when I complained on the first occasion, they told me that I should have sent it back to them. A complete whitewash!

Written on: 12/09/2008
I'm totally in agreement with your rating.I borrowed the D900i as a try out for my last upgrade-it was a terrible thing.The volume didn't work,the camera photo quality was poor despite the 3.2mp and the keys kept sticking.I couldn't send it back quick enough.
