This feature-packed quad-band phone from Samsung combines a super-slim slider design with the latest technologies, making it a must-have tool for those who demand the best. Goodies include Bluetooth, support for EDGE high-speed data, a 1.3 megapixel camera, a music playwer, and a microSD memory card slot. The Samsung D807 is the perfect way to take advantage of all that Cingular service has to offer. Design
The D807's sliding design hides the phone's number pad under the display until you need to make a call. The big 176 x 220 display supports up to 262,000 colors -- plenty of resolution and color depth for your videos and photos. A five-way center control button is positioned below the display, as are shortcut and selection keys. The phone's 1.3 megapixel camera is housed behind the screen. There's also a connector for a stereo 2.5 mm headset. Calling Features
With 18 MB of internal memory, the D807 is designed to hold all the contacts, phone numbers and addresses you can throw at it. A call list remembers your most recent missed, received and dialed calls, and in addition to a vibrating alert, the D807 supports polyphonic ringtones and MP3-based music ringtones. You can also download additional MP3 music ringtones from Cingular's MEdia Net service. A speakerphone lets you talk hands-free while you're doing other things, and picture caller ID lets you assign a photo to specific callers. Similarly, a ringer ID lets you assign ringtones to callers. Speaker independent voice dialing makes it easy to speak the name of a contact and dial it instantly. And lastly, the phone's Bluetooth connectivity means that your favorite Bluetooth headset is fully compatible. Messaging, Internet, and Tools
The D807 has all the bases covered when it comes to messaging. Support is built in for sending and receiving text, video, graphics and sound via messages. When used in combination with the phone's built-in camera, MMS opens up a whole new world of messaging fun. Messaging clients for AOL, MSN, Yahoo!, and ICQ are included. Meanwhile, the phone's email client lets you stay on top of your emails when you're on the go. Getting on the Internet is easy with the D807, too. It supports the GPRS protocol, as well as the high speed EDGE data protocol. When used with a Cingular data plan and the phone's Bluetooth data capability, the phone can be used as a wireless modem for laptops and PDAs. There's also a built-in browser for MEdia Net downloads and mobile Web browsing. Cingular's MEdia Net service lets you receive and send emails, read news headlines, get weather updates, download games and ringtones, and more. T9 text entry, which is a technology that makes it easier for people to enter words and text on handsets, is built into the unit-- a plus for mobile text messaging users. A number of handy productivity tools are bundled with the D807 including a voice memo recorder, an alarm clock, a calculator with unit and currency converters, a calendar, and a to-do list. Imaging and Entertainment
The D807's built-in 1.3 megapixel camera captures stills and video to the phone's internal memory, or to an optional microSD memory card. The still camera features white balance and brightness controls, as well as a multi-shot mode and a self timer. Into music? You're in luck with the D807. Store your favorite MP3-based music on a memory card and listen whenever the feeling strikes you. And if you want to dress up the D807, picture effects, custom screensavers, backgrounds, and themes can be set to fit your personality. Java support is built into the D807, making it a powerful gaming companion. Games are downloadable via the MEdia Net service. Vital Statistics

it might just be me but i'm getting sick of the razr.. it seems like everyone i know who think they're "hip" thinks they need to buy it. anyways, the samsung d807 is a nice alternative to the razr or the slvr from cingular.. i had this phone for 7 hours now and i was mostly impressed by the camera and voice dialing system.. 1.3mp is all you really need for a clear picture and a video recording function is one useful function.. but for some reason, i cant access media mall and hopefully i dont have to sign up for an online access plan.. it sucks because i can't download the ringtones i bought from the website without mediamall so i'm stuck with the default ringtones which arent too exciting.. plus the design is a bit nicer than samsung t809 in my opinion.. i think you can buy a micro sd card and store more mp3's and use it as a mp3 player but i'm not sure about that.. theres always ipod for music..
anyways if you need to do more than just call people on the phone, d807 is the perfect choice.. |

| I recently upgraded my phone from the LG 7200 to Samsung's new slider phone. So far, I am impressed with the phone's features, appearance, and quality. The Camara is nice and takes clear pictures.Also, if your into small phones, this may be what you are looking for. Samsung has never let me down when it comes to cell phones. Very Impressive |

What really drew me to this phone was the screen quality. With a 1.3 megapixel camera built in, the images could pass for ones taken on a camera. The sound quality is also excellent, and there's a built in mp3 player i'm still trying to work out how to fix.
The only downside to the phone is that all numbers from my old phone are stored in the SIM card, and in order to use many of the features involving placing or recieving calls the numbers must be transferred to the phone memory, thus taking up more of it. |

I just received this phone as a replacement (from insurance) for my sony s710a and I could not be more disappointed with this phone.
The phone would not pair up with my jabra bt250v which I could possibly live without however with the phone being in my pocket I was unable to hear it ringing with the volume on 5 (the loudest it would go, also there are no "profiles" to possibly make it louder) The actual sliding portion did feel like it "locked" into place however the top portion of the phone felt very wobbly and cheap. The phone has no flash and you have to adjust the brightness for every photo which makes it useless if your kids are doing something that is a "kodak-moment". I didn't find the phone to be user-friendly out of the box, for instance factory default is when you dial a number and close the slide it hangs up the call. this can be disabled but it was a shocker the first time.
All in all, go with the w600i sony phone (that's what the insurance company is going to be sending me as yet another replacement) |

| I wasn't able to transfer my old # either, but that is not Amazon's fault. It's just the 2 carriers (TMob & Cing in my case) refusing to play along together. |
| CAN'T KEEP PHONE NUMBER??? | Rating: 2 |
| OK, the phone is great, esp at the price, but I don't see why Amazon can't let you transfer your phone number from a previous provider. grrrrrrrrrrrrr |
