Samsung SGH-D900 User review
Strengths: erm, its thin, oh and I guess the 3 mega pixel camera is good.
Weaknesses: See below...
Summary: I HATE this phone! This is the worst phone I have ever owned. I have had the phone for just over a week, and being a geek I have read the user manual and played with all the functions it has to offer.
These are the main reasons I hate this phone...
1) Only one theme is provided with the phone, which you can not update.
2) The polyphonic ring tones that come pre installed sound very dated and you would feel embarrassed if your phone rang in public.
3) I bought a 1 GB micro memory card - if you turn the phone off it DOES NOT recognise the card.
4) In order to use one of your MP3' s stored on your memory card as a ring tone you need you need to copy it to the phone..? - WHY?
5)If you have the head phones plugged in a little "flap" of plastic sticks out of the phone - I will put money on this "flap" of plastic breaking off my phone before Xmas...
6) Any MP3's you upload will need to have very short file names with no "special" characters i.e. -)(*&^%$£"! your phone will not recognise them.
7) You can not view any photos on your memory card in "slideshow" mode (again you have to copy them to the phone to do this! (WHY!?)
8) The phone came pre installed with a demo of Sonic The Hedgehog - WOW! I thought, but the phone is too slow to run the game! Sonic is often to be seen suspended in mid air.
9) The other guy who reviewed this phone has obviously never owned a PDA - This phone has VERY limited synchronisation with Outlook, and any notes you have saved with contacts will not be transferred. (You can view XLS, DOC PDF files on the screen, but the screen is so tiny it is not worth it.
10) The phone feels “cheap” very flimsy plastic battery cover, and I think it will get scratched very quickly.
11) I admit the phone looks very nice, has a great 3mb camera, but as soon as you start using it you will grow to hate it. The only people that have been impressed by this phone are my girlfriend’s teenage brother and sister, and my drunken student mates who looked at it like it was a gold ingot… STAY AWAY FROM THIS PHONE!
