I was looking around on a mobile site and saw the d800 as ebing in shops...i was shocked as i had never even heard it had been released, or seen it in any shops..
Is the d800 supposed to be the model up from samsungs flagship d500 then d600 range?
If it is then what the hell are they doing putting a 1.3mp cam in it?
Craziness this..anyone got news on it?

I just checked out the D800 and it is ok. It has a big 320x240 screen but no memory card slot and only 1.3mp camera. |

Further proof that Samsung confuses mobile buyers with their disorderly model designation and their flooding of the market with a gazillion phones.

damn str8! completely stupid! Why the hell does the d800 have lower specs than d600...im so confused..samsung need to reeli look at the way tehey market thier phones
@ brix...you are right, samsung make so many models, its such a waste of time in my eyes...notice the way that they have so many features they can implement, but spread across their whole network of phones, whereas sony ericsson tend to focus and put all the elements into ine sucessful phone...if samsung just spent their time putting all the right elements together they could make a great phone. This is what they did at the time of the d500, it was a fantastic phone and went to the top of the market...they are wasting time and money flooding the market with so many models in my eyes. It mearly creates a large number of ok designed phones with confusing specs, some good bits and some bad to every phone they release.

just because its a new phone,it doesnt mean that the specs have to match/beat phones that have come out before it.
Samsung are just filling spaces in the market, so no matter what the customers needs,theres probably a Samsung out there that fits

but surely they would be respected more greatly for creating genuine boundry pushing phones rather than trying to get as much profit out of the market as possible by simply flooding it with, in my opinion , un needed phones.
As for the case of the d800, i can't see why they woudl want to downgrade a run of phones...ie d500 d600 d800...the d800 should be the best...but as we have seen, samsung once again confusing us.
The majority of samsung flips these days look almost identical as well, its crazy how many models they have now

@arj,
it's because you are thinking that the larger the number the better the model.
Samsung's logic is, the newer the model the higher the number.
The D800 is infact a D600 with a D500's cam, but with the D600's capabilities. It's very slim. And the slimmer a phone is, the harder it is to
cram everything in. (note the RAZR)
Also, they jumped leaving the D700 space open, perhaps to satisfy people like you that believe the bigger the number, the better the phone.

isn't the 6600 more advanced than the 6610? isn't the k610 more advanced than the k750? these examples were only to emphasis my point that higher #s mean nothing. let's not start a samsung v/s se v/s nokia thing. atleast samsung is releasing phones unlike se & nokia who seem to be only announcing phones. |
