Amazon.com Product Description
Don't turn this phone sideways. It's likely to disappear. Meet one of the thinnest phones on the market, the Samsung SGH-X820. At just about a quarter of an inch thick at its widest point, this phone slides effortlessly into the tightest jeans pocket. It also looks great, with a unique beveled faceplate that makes it comfortable to hold. Somehow, Samsung has also managed to fit some amazing features into this small package, including stereo Bluetooth, a music player, support for EDGE high-speed data, an email client, and a speakerphone. Perhaps most impressively, the X820 also sports a two-megapixel camera.
The X820 packs impressive features into its incredibly slim frame.

Design
The X820 takes the candybar form factor and runs it under a steamroller, making this one flat phone. Constructed of fiberglass-infused plastic, the case might be thin, but it's also strong enough to handle rough and tumble days. The large, 220 x 176 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 two-megapixel camera is housed on the rear of the phone, and a USB data port is provided, as well. Side keys allow you to quickly control the volume while you're on a call.
Calling Features
With 80 MB of internal memory, the X820 is designed to hold 1000 contacts, phone numbers and addresses. A call list remembers your most recent missed, received and dialed calls, and in addition to a vibrating alert, the phone supports polyphonic ringtones and MP3-based music ringtones. 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. The X820's Bluetooth wireless technology lets talk freely on a wireless headset or sync up seamlessly with your PC and other compatible Bluetooth devices. You can even use it with wireless stereo headphones.
Messaging, Internet, and Tools
The X820 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. A built-in email client lets you keep tabs on your important communications throughout the day.
Getting on the Internet is easy with the X820, too. It supports the GPRS protocol, as well as the high speed EDGE data protocol. When used with your carrier's data service and the phone's USB or Bluetooth data capability, the phone can be used as a wireless modem for laptops and PDAs. There's also a built-in browser for downloads and mobile Web browsing. 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 X820 including an alarm clock, a calculator with currency converter, a calendar, and a timer. And because the X820 supports the SyncML synchronization standard, you can easily sync your PC-based contacts via USB or Bluetooth.
Imaging and Entertainment
The X820's built-in 2-megapixel camera captures stills and video to the phone's internal memory, and you can easily print your pictures without a PC, thanks to the phone's PictBridge compatibility. Simply connect the phone via USB to a PictBridge-compatible printer and print away.
Into music? You're in luck with the X820. Store your favorite MP3- or AAC-based music on the X820 and listen whenever the feeling strikes you on the built-in stereo speakers. When you want to jam out in private you can use a Bluetooth wireless stereo headset. Lastly, if you want to dress up your X820, picture effects, custom screensavers, backgrounds, and themes can be set to fit your personality.
Java support is built into the X820, making it a powerful gaming companion. You can also download games directly to the device, or use the handset's USB data connection to load more games and files onto the phone.
Vital Statistics
The Samsung SGH-X820 weighs 2.33 ounces and measures 4.45 x 1.97 x 0.27 inches. Its lithium-ion battery is rated at up to 2.5 hours of digital talk time, and up to 210 hours of digital standby time. It runs on the GSM/GPRS/EDGE 900/1800/1900 frequencies.
Customer Reviews:
Buyer Beware.......2007-11-30
Now where do i start...
Please read the whole review.
1.The main thing is that the Phone processor is unstable. Shuts off when talking, texting or dialing. Not good when your on an important phone call. Cuts out on me about 2-3 times a day
2. Antenna is weak. Doesn't pick up signels where my Razor did! Always has dead spots. Will cut out more than any other phone.
3. Too thin! Need blue tooth to talk. Holding it is like holding a barbie phone to your ear
4. Cannot lay on shoulder to talk. Must use bluetooth.
5. doesn't have a function for Vibrate and Ringer. One or other
6. My fingers aren't big and they still have a hard time hitting the keys accuratly. Keys are too small
I've had this phone for 6 months now and looking for a different one. I thought small was good but not for a phone. Fits in the pocket, picture is awesome but it doesn't make up for all negatives. I DO NOT RECOMMEND. TAKE IT FROM SOMEONE WHO USES THE PHONE 5000 MINUTES A MONTH.
one amazing cell phone.......2007-06-13
it is a great phone. it does not hold too much space, has a very strong reception capability.
Makes the RAZR look like The Nutty Professor!.......2007-04-20
This is, hands down, the thinnest phone on the market right now. If you put it next to the RAZR, you will wonder how you ever thought the RAZR was thin. Not only is this phone slick and stylish, it functions great too. It has everything you'd expect, plus more. Camera, video, voice recorder, mp3 player, internet, email, even applications like calculator, stopwatch, currency converters, etc. It supports Java games and applications. You can even view txt/word/pdf documents (although they require a lot of zooming and panning to be readable on the small screen). The sound on this phone is top notch. The speakers are crystal clear and super-loud. Speaker-phone works great. And the included headphones are nice quality (even better than the stock iPod headphones). Overall it does everything you would need a phone to do and does it with style.
But who cares what the phone does when it looks this sexy? The design of the phone is very nice. The buttons actually feel like real buttons (unlike those esoteric designs on the Motorolas). The screen is bright and crisp, not blurry like most phones. The menus look nice, clean design and are easy to navigate. Everything about this device is quality. Bottom-line, this is the phone that James Bond would have. You will not be disappointed.
Poor battery life.......2007-03-08
Samsung phones, in general, have very poor battery life. I find myself charging this phone each night.
Features you wouldnt know until you buy & use.......2007-03-05
In addition to most of the features that everyone has already talked about, few things about this phone a really cool or really annoying:
COOL STUFF:
1) TV out display:
With the cable provided with the phone, you can simply plug in your phone to the TV and get the display on. Watch video's, listen to music, view pictures etc from your phone directly on the TV.
2) Powerpoint/PDF/etc
The phone has a inbuilt viewer for office files. You can even do a presentation on a big screen directly from the phone by just attached the TV out cable.
ANNOYING STUFF:
1) Poor battery life. Have to recharge ATLEAST once a day and occasionally twice.
2) If you are viewing a menu, or composing a text message and you receive an incoming call, when you go back to disconnecting the call, the text msg would first get discarded then you would have to go all the way back to home screen and then disconnect the phone. REEEEEAAAALYYY really annoying!!!!
3) While on a call, you key in a phone number to store, and if you hit the disconnect button, the number would first get cleared and then you would have to hit the disconnect button again to actually disconnect the call. And yea dont forget, you just lost the number that you were just trying to save !!!

An innovative design with plenty of style to spare. Take a closer look at the X830's features. |
Design
The X830's unique swing-open form factor sets it aside from traditional clamshell, candybar, or slider designs. When closed, the X830 functions like a fully loaded MP3 player complete with a full-color 128x220 screen that horizontally displays the playlist, equalizer settings, and song information. The cover features a convenient and simple-to-use circular trackpad and trackpad button that makes music management a breeze. Swinging the phone open exposes the keypad and doubles its length for use as a phone. The unit's dial pad is configured in a revolutionary two-column format instead of the traditional three, making the device even easier to hold and carry. The right side of the unit houses up/down buttons for volume control, while the rear of the device houses the built-in 1.3-megapixel camera. Competitive with high-end dedicated music players, the X830 comes with an amazing 1GB of built-in memory, offering plenty of storage for music, images, and videos.

A call list remembers your most recent missed, received, and dialed calls. The X830 supports polyphonic ringtones and MP3-based music ringtones. A built-in speakerphone lets you talk hands-free while you're doing other things, and picture caller ID lets you assign a photo to specific callers.

A number of handy productivity tools are bundled with the X830 including a voice memo recorder, an alarm clock, a calculator with currency converter, a calendar, a clock with world time and stopwatch features, and a to-do list. And because the X830 supports the SyncML synchronization standard, you can easily sync your PC-based contacts.

The unit's portability and compactness do not compromise the ease of use of its various multimedia functions. The feature rich X830 portable jukebox plays multiple audio formats including MP3, AAC, AAC+, e-AAC+, and WMA. The circular trackpad navigation feature gives you hassle-free control of the music functions, while the built-in 1GB memory allows for storage of up to 250 songs. You can also download audio files from the CNN or BBC websites via the supported podcasting function.
The USB 2.0 connection is fast enough to handle large data volumes, and the onboard music library organizes downloaded music according to album name, song title, artist, and genre for effortless search and playback. And don't forget, the previously mentioned stereo Bluetooth feature allows you to talk handsfree or enjoy their music through a wireless stereo headset.
When it's time to capture the moment, the X830's built-in 1.3-megapixel camera captures stills and video to the phone's internal memory. The X830's camera also features a 4 x digital zoom, a timer mode, a night mode, and white balance/brightness feature. Lastly, if you want to dress up the X830, picture effects, custom screensavers, and backgrounds can be set to fit your personality.
Java support is built into the X830, making it a powerful gaming companion. You can also use the handset's Bluetooth or USB data connection to load more games and files onto the phone.

Customer Reviews:
stylish, but not so great otherwise........2007-12-30
I bought this phone from a local store that had unlocked phones, but I ended up returning it.
The only really good thing I can say about it is that it has a cool size and is pretty compact. The slide mechanism is pretty cool too, but a little unconventional.
Now for the bad:
The size is pretty thick for what it is in comparison with other phones, the screen is pretty small too.
There wasn't a place for an SD card, so you have to use internal memory on the phone - I didn't like that especially.
The camera was decent quality, but it's in a weird place on the back so if you're talking on the phone you probably will be smudging it.
The worst part was the number layout; at least for the US Samsung Juke, there are three rows of buttons, this phone only has two. Texting is really confusing, and it's really hard to dial a number without screwing up. Call quality was only mediocre.
Overall, I would not recommend this phone for any features except if you're looking for a stylish phone. It is only marginal in many aspects. The layout is so unconventional that the user has to learn the strange key layout before it can be used effectively -- a phone shouldn't require the user to re-learn its layout.
small phone but..........2007-06-11
The size is very small but the reception is very bad. U have to keep it outside your pocket to have reception. The camera is enough 1.3mp . it is very stylish and anyone who sees it finds it amazing. The battery life is not that bad. I charge it every two days and i talk alot on the phone.it is a cool phone on the outside but not that good inside.
Terrible Phone.......2007-03-03
Horrible battery life. I had to recharge my battery every 17 hours.
Doesn't include speakerphone option.
Poor reception, too.
In ending, it is a very compact and stylish phone.
