Review: Samsung T809

As far as build quality goes, it has been said that there are two different versions of the phone. The initial batch didn't slide as well and the doors for the memory card were very flexible rubber. The newer ones (the one I have) have more solid doors and the slide is alot smoother.

As far as volume, you've got to be doing something wrong. The phone is REALLY loud when turned all the way up in the mp3 player and while watching videos (using the external speakers, not the headphones).
