Good: Everything was good

Bad: Nothing was bad

Comment: I had this phone for over 3,5 years til I lost it. I loved this phone and I'm still missing it. Some people here wrote about the camera, but they never figured out the way it works. The camera is absolutely brilliant, simple freeze your hand for 2 seconds after you made a picture, and you will see the quality. The pic comes our smugled when you move your hand straight away after you shoot. It was an excellent phone and I don't know why so many people complain about the cracked display. My phone fell on the concrete too many times and nothing happened to it. The material it was made of was absolutely fantastic. This phone had never dissapointed me. It was a super fantastic phone. I was crying when I lost it..

I own it

Good: Nothing

Bad: Easily Breakable

Comment: My d900 only lasted 6 months of my 18 month contract becasue somehow it sustained water damage (How i am not so sure :-s) and also another mystery, my screen cracked whilst in my pocket therefore not a very durable phone.

Do not buy this phone!!

Good: Most of it. Definately one of the best phones I have owned so far. Graphically pleasing and I like how it feels.

Bad: Slightly awkward to txt with the top three buttons, nothing major though.

Comment: I have just bought this phone, and I can safely say that it was worth every penny! I got the pink one, and its very pretty. It is the best phone i have had and I would highly recommend it as a first phone, or just if you're not looking to spend a lot; but also wanting a great phone! 9/10!

Good: How slim it is, colour, price

Bad: nothing yet

Comment: This was my first samsung mobile, and words cannot describe how pleased i am with it. It has to be my best phone ever. The layout of the button are so easy to handle. The screen is much bigger than I had expected but this is a good factor as it complements the 3MP Camera nicely. The Auto Focus is brilliant and give Clear, Steady Photos. The music Player has got to be one of the best, even beating the sony walkman music player on my last phone (W800). The included headphones are brilliant. The sound quality is superb. I have had no problems with it at all. I highly recommend this phone to any one, Great christmas present.

Good: Style - looks amazing

Bad: only good thing is the look; really.

Comment: Not great features, camera is beyond terrible at night and only slightly above average in the day. The ''flash'' is just a light! Not a proper flash - get it together Samsung please!

I bought it for stlye at the time but have just upgraded to a sony ericsson K810i and am much happier now.

Overall - looks amazing but thats all its got to offer; no where near good enough with competition at the moment.

Good: The phone looks good and handles good, but.

Bad: keys get pressed when answering the phone.

Comment: I find that when you buy a phone you should be able to go through the manual and give each facility a test run. My problem is, and maybe I am being trivial, and maybe it only applies to O2, but, the word I used before, the speed dial facility does not exist for the user. Samsung and O2 blame each other, Samsung says Speed Dial works on other service providers, and O2 say that they don't have the wherewithal to lock the Speed Dial to their numbers, why should Samsung do it? Neither of the companies would send me a code to unlock the Speed Dial and allow me to put the numbers in that I want. Subsequently I have returned the Samsung D900 ( Red ) to the company I bought it from, having been told it was only peculiar to this colour Samsung. I went to get the normal Samsung D900, tested it in the shop, left the shop because the same problem was there.

Good: Design, screen, camera

Bad: Can't tell how many texts I've sent, worried about screen breaking

Comment: Wow. I got this phone a few days ago, 12 month contract from O2. I love it... I love the design, the camera, everything (apart from the light isn't very bright). I haven't had any of the problems reported with keypad awkwardness, and the screen is better and bigger than any other phone I have seen or owned (RAZR, K750i, Motorola V180). The only thing is that you people have worried me by all saying that it has a weak screen :S I don't know where to keep it and take it now, for fear of it breaking... are the rumors true?

Good: The d900 is superb for surfing the net.

Bad: The keypad is awkward at the bottom but you get used to it.

Comment: Having had the d900 for a few days now, I find it a superb all round phone, the most annoying thing about it is becouse I was used to the d600, when I come to search for media files, I find myself pressing the search for media files on the web button, instead of search for my downloaded files. Relay p****es me off, otherwise superb.

Good: I like it all!

Bad: I think the screen gets dirty too easily

Comment: I totally disagree with what everybody is saying, I've had many phones through the past year but this one has truly been sensational. The only bad thing I can say is that the screen attracts a lot of fluff and dust. I think this phone is really up there with the Nokia N73 and the Sony Ericsson K800i. I have been converted and now I follow Samsung all the way!

Good: The look, features

Bad: Made from eggshell!

Comment: Totally crap phone. I upgraded from the excellent D600 and assumed it was a step in the right direction... BUT NO.
Screen did its trick of breaking without it being mis-used.
SIM card back in the old D600 and D900 off back to 02.
