To buy or not to buy, 8400?

[TheRemedy]

Looking for some input on the 8400 from the people who have used it. I mainly am looking for a phone with good battery life, and bluetooth capabilities. The camera and media player functions are not as important to me as having a good working bluetooth and battery w/ antena. I currently am cursed with the a900, and am looking between the fusic and 8400. Can anyone tell me what they have experienced with this phone before I make my decision? I have heard small text and memory card slot sizing problems are common? This correct?
Thanks in advance

I personally like my 8400. to be honest, I really don't have any issues with it. the text font for the vision homepage is a little small but that doesn't bother me and all of the other font settings can be changed.
as far as the memory card issue I haven't heard of that one.

as far as the memory card issue I haven't heard of that one. :tu: I agree with mtied, also the battery life is great and the reception is also (its a very solid little phone). As far as this "memory card" issue that you bought up...ive never heard of that one, mine is fine :cool:

Great, everything I've heard of this phone surpasses my a900, and all the extra stuff is just icing on the cake. The memory card I thought I read people had to sand it down to get the door to shut, but it could have been somthing else. I don't use vision much, so the text issue doesn't bother me, thanks for the input.

Yep, The battery life on this phone is good. I stream video and audio all day surf the web and I still have battery life left at the end of the day.

The 8400's battery is very good I agree and the QVGA screen is very bright and nice to read text from.

I have a Sandisk 1 Gb microSD card and it's fits/works perfectly.

I haven't been to impressed by Samsung, the phone looks like the upgrade of the a900, which I have now and hate. I've always had good luck w/ sanyo as far as durability, all the sanyo phones have lasted me over 2yrs. What i have now is my first samsung, and I can't wait to get rid of it because it feels like its about to fall apart, and the top lcd is scratched, it freezes all the time and requires a reboot, and its a 6 month old phone.
