The bad: Lack of Wi-Fi; Xenon flash isn't as bright as we expected.
The bottom line: This chunky mobile snapper is an attractive slider phone that, although large, is easy to hold and use. The G800's camera comes with all the bells and whistles you'd expect from a standalone digital camera, but it's not a complete replacement just yet.

Pros: 5 MP, Face Detection
Cons: Lame customer support, Products easily brokes,
Opinion:

Pros: 5 MP Camera,Sleek and futuristic design.Large text and clear display a bonus
Cons: Underpowered Xenon Flash,Camera options rather limited,Audio output(except Radio) rather soft.Samsung PC Studio rather glitchy
Opinion:
Samsung has done a relatively good job trying to enter the Big 5(MP) league with the Samsung SGH-G800.However,the G800 still have a few steps from being a distinguished Big 5 member,as some of the features are still not top-notch as compared with the big players such as the premium-priced Nokia N95 and the Sony Ericsson K950i

The slider for instance,im not sure if it's my set but if u open it at max speed retracting it would take a little more strength since its not very smooth.The problem is not present if u open it in normal speed.]
The Camera flash is rather underpowered,and i put the range around 1.5m or so.More than that it would get dark if u shoot low lighting areas.More for close up shots and portraits in ... Read more
