Samsung D820 review

The SGH-D820 is very similar to the D800, except with the addition of microSD expandable memory, video output and a document viewer.

The model D820 looks not so brightly, but it has a latent charm. Matte plastic which does not cause any traces, is shaded by the varnish of the bottom part of the device and navi button; the top face is the same as a back part with the camera's module (it is visible only in the opened condition). The screen is spoiled similar to D800, but the dirt is not so appreciable.

Unusually, the D820 also seems to feature a secondary camera next to the screen (the primary camera is hidden under the sliding mechanism at the back like the D600 and D500). No reason for this has been given, and the D820 certainly isnt a 3G phone (although it does have quad-band GSM and EDGE). Presumably the secondary camera is for taking self-portraits.

The main trouble appears when opening the device, movement is slow with appreciable effort, parts do not slide. The emphasis made under the screen does not help during the opening, the finger slides off it. At closing it is useless too; if you use it you will have to spend many forces on closing.

It is easier to put a finger on the screen and then the movement will be more simple (the same at opening). Traditionally it is possible to use sliders in the closed condition so may answer calls to read messages or move through the menu.

Buttons are made of usual plastic; they are of average size but with a light key depression. Its comfort is higher than D800, but it concedes to usual devices or Samsung D600. Due to the stereo dynamics there is a ledge at the bottom part of the case; it is not very pleasant to work with the bottom line of buttons, you will touch an edge of the device.

At the same time the top line does not cause any problems. Backlight is also of white color; it is brighter and is well visible in various conditions

A TransFlash slot card allows keeping any types of files and working with them using the appropriate files manager. Each menu contains the item "memory card". It is active when the card is in the slot, when it is not there the item is inaccessible.

From fine defects it is necessary to note that memory cards are unusual for the company and the interface and the maximal integration of memory cards in existing opportunities of the device is not developed up to the end.
