The good: 5-megapixel camera with autofocus; 3x optical zoom and face detection; HSDPA.

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.

Samsung has the most LAME customer support here in the Philippines



Rating: 1 out of 10 (Abysmal)
Pros: 5 MP, Face Detection
Cons: Lame customer support, Products easily brokes,
Opinion:
Yup, you've read it right, Samsung's product lines easily brooked even with just a short fall, screen specially, and when you go to their customer support, you will get the lamest service, you'll have to wait for a lifetime. To bad, what do they think of themselves, top of the line? nop, their on the bottom and in the wrack.

 

A good attempt from Samsung to join the Big 5(MP) league,but still a few steps away



Rating: 9 out of 10 (Spectacular)
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

I think i'll list out the bad points here because all the good ones are essentially the same as the review on the 2nd tab above.

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
