Samsung
D900 (SGH-D900 / Ultra Edition 12.9)
Discontinued 21st June 2006
The Samsung
D900 is a compact sliding
phone with a 3.13 megapixel digital camera. It's an
impressively slim slider - Samsung say the SGH-D900
is the thinnest slider ever - at just 13mm thick
and 85 grams in weight.
It forms part of Samsung's "Ultra
Edition" range, and
the SGH-D900
also has the name Ultra Edition 12.9, the 12.9
referring to the thickness of the handset in millimetres.
In
addition to the 3.13 megapixel camera, the Samsung
D900 has a 2.1" 240x320
pixel TFT display, 80Mb of internal memory with microSD
expansion, stereo Bluetooth, quad-band GSM with GPRS
and EDGE and also a TV output. The fact that Samsung
have managed to squeeze all of that into such a tiny
handset is an impressive feat.
There's also a multimedia player capable
of playing back MP3 and AAC audio formats, a digital
power amp and document viewer, and presumably the Samsung
D900 has all the usual
things that you'd expect from this type of handset.
It's a bit of a dull handset to look
at though - it looks almost identical to many other
Samsung sliders
on the market. Although there are limited design options
when dealing with these ultra-compact phones, it does
seem that Samsung haven't made much of an effort to
make the SGH-D900
stand out.. which is a shame because it's quite an impressive
handset.
No release date or price has been announced
for the SGH-D900.
