  great phone

If you are reading this and your getting ready to buy this phone but aren't sure because of all the bad reviews people give it. don't listen to them most of it is ridiculous about bluetooth and what not the phone is awesome it has great features and the thing with the battery life, just make sure that you don't play with the phone right away let it charge completely and hey just in case buy a car charger. I'm the type of kid that is constantly playing with their cell pone and texing 24/7. but yet i still have full battery life at the end of the day.

MY PROS:
big screen
INSANELY clear camera
+ it swivels
mp3 player
tex/video/instant/picture messaging
loud speakers
video caller ID.
and speaker phone


MY ONLY CONS:
if you close the phone while your sending a TeX message it automatically puts it under drafts don't get me wrong it still sends (minor thing though)


Hope this helps you

  Excellent phone
Review created: 08/05/08

I decided to buy this phone because it has a speakerphone option, which makes it easy to avoid having to put it up to my ear to talk. It also has a low SARS rating, so if I do, the radiation emitted is limited. There still is controversy regarding this issue of radiation, but I think a common sense approach is to expose yourself, and especially your brain, to as little radiation as possible.
Other reasons to like this phone are its slim design, and ease of use.
I've used Samsungs ever since 2000, and am very happy with the brand.

I bought the phone because i needed a replacement and because it took over 3 weeks after my payment was received to get this phone. I am utterly dissappointed with seller for slowness. I paid on time and expect my product on time, was that too much?

This is the best phone we've ever had :)

We bought this phone when it first came out and cost an arm and a leg (around $250.00). Never had a problem with it. Reception was great, pictures were the best from a cam phone, we've seen and the video quality was great too.

Loved the sliding action of the phone, very cool!

The hubby eve had that case that, I don't know if if was a magnetic thing or what, but when he opened the case, the phone made a lil beep or something.

Well, I love that phone and with all the new technology coming out, I'd buy that phone again, except its not compatible with the "Fave 5".

The phone has really good looks. A nice black slider with a large screen. However, the earpiece volume just didn't go high enough for my liking. Calls came in very soft and I could barely hear anyone in my car which isn't that loud like a concert or anything. It is a camera phone and supports bluetooth, but I just didn't think the phone is all that exciting.

ike that pattern of cellular, it is very sophisticated, and has many extras, as mp3, camera of 1.3 megapixel, a very luminous screen, is also thin and light, for that reason it is that I like this mark samsung a lot.

Just take 2 minutes and read this. This is very EASY to do! It literally takes 10 minutes to setup. Simply follow the steps below. I promise you, this is 100% real. Here is what you do. Click on the link below, register, pick an account type (referral is the easiest) and complete just 1 offer (Very important that you complete the 1 offer otherwise your account will sit in limbo until you do). The best offer to do is STAMPS.com. Its free, all you need to do is register and follow the instructions. And you’re on your way to your free prize for just completing this offer!

There are plenty of cool offers to choose from such as Blockbuster online, Stamp.com, Netflix, Gamefly which are services you would regularly sign up for anyways and their all secure networks, why not use them to get a free PS3, flat screen TV, iPHONE, ipod or cash (I did the Stamps.com for a 4 week free trial and it is free! I don’t have to do anything with it). Look at the offers and choose the one that works for you. After signing up and completing your one offer, simply refer 5-14 people or friends (depending on the FREE prize you choose) to do the same under your link (just post the same thing as I have on eBay or any other message board, and you'll get your referrals before the auction even ends.)

Then they will ship your selected item for free. No Joke, 100% REAL!!! The reason these companies make money, is because most people don't bother getting all the referrals. All you have to do is post it on EBAY! They use us as advertisement by word of mouth which saves them tons of money which goes toward yours and my free gift. These are legit companies such as Blockbuster, Netflix, Gamefly etc... You can copy my listing if you want. You must use your own authentic link though. You will get your own personal link after your orders placed.

Step 2: Sign up and chose an account type (Referral is the easiest and best).

I like that this phone is compact, has a web browser, camera and is easy to use. What I dont like about the phone is that the numbers are to close together and a case is hard to use for this phone you have to actually take it out of the case. Overall this phone is great and I really enjoy it.

This is a very good phone. I like it way better than my RAZR. I'm not into really hi-tech phones. I just like fun and easy to use phones, and this one is both. If your looking to buy a RAZR, this is a good option. Plus this phone can be unlocked so easily. The design looks more sophisticated and elegant than the RAZR.

I actually bought this phone so i can keep in contact with my brother. The call quality is great, the speaker phone option is awesome as well. My brother loves music and for someone who isn't very computer literate, he's finding it very easy to add songs to his mp3 lists. He just needs a higher capacity micro sd card now. The only thing I didn't like is that the oem software won't let you create customizable ring tones. Other than that this is a great little slider phone for a great price w/o contract.

I DECIDED TO BUY IT AS A SPARE PHONE FOR MY TMOBILE ACCOUNT. I DAMAGED MY PREVIOUS PHONE THAT WAS OUT OF WARRANTY AND HAD TO ORDER ANOTHER ONE THROUGH THE PHONE COMPANY SO I DECIDED TO BUY ONE FROM E BAY AS A SPARE IN CASE THAT WERE TO EVER HAPPEN AGAIN. THE PHONE WORKS, BUT IT'S A LIL' TOO WORN FOR WHAT I PAID AND THE SLIDE FEATURE IS MUCH TO RIGID (NOT SMOOTH AT ALL).

  Samsung SGH T809 - elegance and class
Review created: 12/10/07

The camera takes vivid pictures even though it's only 1.3megapixels. The speakers are excellent for both talking and listening to music. Lots of internal storage plus you have the additional feature of adding a micro SD chip. The display is very clear also. The only thing I hate about it is trying to plug in the charger, it's like treading a needle.

I bought the item used, but described as 100% functional w/ light scratches. This is a slider phone that doesn't slide back in place, unable to hear the other person, there is a very visible scratch on the face, unable to receive incoming call.

This was a replacement for my son's broken phone. When T*Mobile said this phone was discontinued he was really bummed, he loved this phone. They offered him a razor, a perfectly fine phone, which he hated. For his birthday I decided to surprise him with his old favorite, the Samsung SGH T809, he was thrilled! Even used, he thought it was better than his new razor.

The phone is absolutely outstanding. The only flaw I found throughout my usage is the dust behind the screen. I spoke to Samsung after hours of being on hold and was told that this is actually normal and they would not exchange it. Good luck! Great phone otherwise.

The product that I purchased Works well. The Seller did'nt ship all the contents that were shown. After contacting the seller we came to an agreement which he never fully completed. But I feel that I got a great deal on the product and it works great. My complaint stops there.

  Ehhh, Good Phone, BUT NOT DURABLE!!
Review created: 07/19/07
by:
5 of 5 people found this review helpful.

I liked this phone very much, when it comes to functionality, battery life, LOUD SPEAKER, huge display, better than average camera during the day...

However, there a def a few large dislikes about this phone... 1. LCD screen is nice and large, BUT cracks and breaks VERY EASY!! Within 2 weeks of buying this phone the screen broke while in my pocket... 2. My second phone (as it was replaced under warrenty) got a little wet in a rainstorm, while in my pocket, and the keypad stopped working right...

I would recommend this phone, BUT ONLY if you leave it in your house, on your dresser, and didnt use it often.. I dont abuse phones, or even overuse them.. I had never broken a cellphone before this one, and this model broke 2 times within 1 Year!!! If you have a history of broken phones, STAY AWAY FROM THIS ONE!!

I've had this phone since it came out, and recently "upgraded" to the next model (after I dropped my original t809 into the ocean).

I am now trying to buy another one of the t809. Everything about it is awesome, including the normal fonts, the personalization features, mp3, and the swivel camera. The "upgrade" has that crappy robot font, annoying tones, and blah.

A+++++ on this phone. It will keep me buying samsung for life, that's for sure.

  Ex Tmobile Employee Rates It
Review created: 06/20/07

Overall:
The Samsung T809 is a great phone. Its the one I use myself.
It was Samsungs reply to Motorolla's Razr.

It's overall appearance and unique design is excellent, and fun to use. The screen is large and very crisp and pretty scratch resistant. Being a quad band, 1.3 mp camera, video capture (up to 10 min. or so with the memory card), edge technology, usb adapter, MP3 player, etc, makes this one fully loaded phone. I also used if for internet access for my computer and performed nicely. It has some interesting camera editing features as well.

Cons:
The phone does not have a flash, and in dim light it's very easy to blur a picture. The camera sound also goes off without anyway to stop it, and it does so not during the moment it takes the picture, so you can find yourself holding the phone up wondering if you have kept it up long enough to get the shot. The batter life is terrible, it was a pain to continually recharge it. The software on the CD I found hard to use to download pictures.


Some known issues:
1)The memory card sometimes will want to disconnect,
2)the power button sometimes delays before shutting off which only causes a problem when you hit it twice thinking that you didn't shut it off, and then it comes back on. This can cause embarrasement in areas that your phone was supposed to be off, and it starts ringing after you thought it was off.
3)The biggest of all however is the battery life. Good luck trying to go more than a day or two without recharging it. If you buy it you may want to invest in a extra battery or car charger.
4)When taking a picture it by default asks if you would like to send it to your tmobile account. I found this very annoying.

Summary:
The phone was great for its first release. Like many others owners of it, I wish they would have made new models addressing some of the above issues.
