Oh my god the CK box in d 1st post is kinda cool... >.<

@ evilguy

Tuesday's Star newspaper InTech reviewed that k800i can only last for 2 days on normal use and 1 day on hardcore usage... OMG... If this is really the case then glad to say that D900's battery life is much more better! Cheers!

@ starbox

Almost all people say that k800's camera is way better than Samsung's. But i don't see much difference... Probably cause i'm not a hardcore camera user. Maybe it's the Cybershot logo that brain-washed people. But i gotta say that SE has more camera functions, though samsung lets us tweak things such as ISO that i think SE doesn't have. Correct me if i'm wrong. The bad side of d900 is that we have to hold the phone very still for a few seconds (around 2-3) in order to focus and capture the pictures, otherwise it will be blur. This is not good for spontaneous shots i'd say.

of course you can buy spare battery. but you still have to charge it. it is troublesome to keep open your casing and switch battery to charge. i heard that the battery cover is so hard to open.

the camera can be said 2nd compare to k800i. low light condition, this phone canot take good picture couse it dont have flash like k800i. The price is about rm1470 - rm1599


really k800i battery is that bad? hard to believe. someone from k800i forum surely will deny this statment i think all the pros and cons is subjective. some say this and some say that. i really cant rely 100% on them we must try it ourself. but to try we have to buy it

is the ISO tweak is realy good for d900? i also not a pro photographer. but i like to take picture. what ISO setting should we choose to take good picture? how about the night mode setting fo d900? got lot of noise or not?

@ evilguy

Ya the batt cover takes forever to open, as much force is needed and we don't wanna break this phone apart. Opening regularly is not recommended. For total darkness, the camera flash can only take bright pictures from a range of less than 50cm. ISO is just settings to tweak about. I usually set it to auto. As for night mode noise, i didn't really looked into it. Try looking at comparison review pics online.

here is the night mode shot. it is consider good but with some blur. probably because shaking hand.

Darn, could i only get that CK box at the front?Its awesome...

i hope i wont break the phone...
yeah...got a bit blur...but the colour still not bad...

lol luckily i'm not a CK fan...the pouch is nice though..

The pouch look like any black leather pouch leh? Sorry la maybe it's my eyes but I really don't see the significance...

actually not much diff from a normal blakc leather pouch...and now im wondering whether the pouch can be closed...

how much you guys bought that phone as in the normal set not the CK one??? 1.4k?

The phone uses MicroSD (T-flash)

the price here at penang is RM1430 for fmg set. man, after so much hardwork listing of pros and cons between d900 and k800. I've made a disicion to buy k800i. if i able to buy both, i will do that couse i really love the look of this phone. but in life we have to make decision and this is what i've decide. but i'll be stick to this thread eventhough i dont own one couse i really d900

evilguy,

What a tough decision you've made. Well, I'm still had enough time to decide. Maybe sometime in December after the rumoured 3G version is released.

you know what... after all i want to buy d900. however the reason that make me change my mind last minute becouse my friends told me a story about his friend using samsung phone. he said his friend bought samsung phone and it always rosak after a year. that person buy 3 samsung phone in the last 3 year and all of them rosak. not totally malfunction. but some minor rosak like speaker become slow, lag and other minor2 stuff.

seem like it hard to believe. i also dont know how i believe such a rumor. maybe due to satisfaction in SE phone i used before. that is why it is so hard for me to jump to samsung phone. but as i said, i really love d900 even though i dont have it

@jimbet1337

choose wisely. hope you satified wit your decission later on. gud luck.

@ lord

AFAIK samsung ONLY uses MicroSD. =/

@ samurai1337

Samsung makes great sliding mechanism and crisp screens.

@ evilguy

Ur fren's prob seems 2 b firmware related 2 me. However i witnessed hardware probs. From experience, it's QUITE true. However, i don't know whether is it i'm just plain lucky, but flagship phones tend to last longer. The most fragile part is the flexi-cable inside. My flip e700's (flagship) screen gave problems abt after 2 yrs. Mom's slide e800's speaker starts 2 b troublesome after abt 1 yr caused by d cable. Bro's e760's keypad starts 2 hav probs nearly after 1 yr. Thankfully my d500 (flagship) was perfectly fine after more den 1 yr except for a more loosened sliding mechanism.

har...dont scare me leh...i'm expecting this phone to last at least 2 yrs...i don wanna any problems to occur...i have frens who used samsung phones n they said not tat good...but they were using those old models so i tot may be now got improvements... my sister has a k800 from uk but none of us wants it bcoz we think is too big...don really like thick n big phone...

What is so special about the cK edition other than the box (which you don't carry it with the phone usually), the pouch and also the pre-set wallpapers (which you can find it easily)? It's like doing free advertisement for cK only

well af 1st i also thick k800i is thick and bulky. but after i hold it on my hand... i love it it not so thick and heavy actually. my previous (and still using it) 3310 is much heavier. lol. it it the legend phone after all.

we not intend to scare you. just tell base on story. but LiNKInPaRk108 story is base on his experience. maybe it is true after all. but... all phone may not last forever.

i dont see and different between those CK and normal version. i think it just as the davinci version of w810i. the phone is almost similar plus additional accesories.

dont think got big diff...they should at least change the colour or add a CK at the back or somewhere....

yeah...was considering n73 but the keypad is too small for me...will just go for d900...

sorry,noobie here..I having some difficulty to change the sms tone.. and keypad tone seems can't be off? What is the lastest firmware for this phone?
