Summary: Nice and Simple
Comment: I don't text. I looked at phones that all seemed geared toward avid texters and people who may be talking on the phone all the time. That's not me. All I needed was a phone that I could easily carry and make an occasional phone call on.
That's the Samsung t819.
I haven't had any problem with reception or call quality. That's all good. So far, I've had no problems at all. It has an okay camera that can record video, too.
Also, a helpful feature is that when the phone is in closed position, it automatically key-locks so that you don't accidentally turn it on when it's in your pocket. The lock then disengages as soon as you slide the phone open.
If you're looking for a phone that is simple, yet effective, this one's for you.

Summary: Ok phone nice features but buggy
Comment: Serious Issues - Suggestion choose another manufacture. The last two Samsung phones I purchased have been buggy. Bluetooth seems to be a big problem for Samsung - especially if you have a newer car with bluetooth. Both Samsung and T-Mobile will put you through hell before they will replace them. t629 when on a call using bluetooth will drop the call you are on and you cannot "accept" the 2nd call. t-819 is also buggy in bluetooth mode. The volume increases and decreases during conversation making a call frustratingly difficult. Additionally, the t-819 40-50% of the time will show connected but caller is unable to hear the other party. Bought a Sony Erricson and it is perfect in every way. For the record Lexus duplicated the problem with Samsung and determined it IS the Samsung phone. Their test phones (not Samsung) worked perfectly with the vehicle bluetooth. Come on folks it is 2008 bluetooth technology has been around for more than a decade.

Summary: best phone ever!!!
Comment: this phone is so awesome, i dont know what the other people are talking about getting the 'pink' off because i had no problems switching the color to grey. i had the 629 and got this phone to replace it and have not had 1 problem with it. very easy to use and picture is very clear. in my opinion samsung phones last a long time and are VERY reliable. i only have to charge it once every 4 or 5 days! battery lasts a long time. once again samsung has a satisfied customer!!!!

Summary: Best Phone I've Owned so Far!
Comment: Great phone very simple and easy to use. Packed with many features and it's free with T-Mobile contract. Excellent music player. I added a 2gb micro sd and I use it with my bluetooth stereo headset during my bike commute to work and during my workouts. Now I don't need to bring my mp3 player and I won't miss any calls because I can pick up a phone call with my headset. This phone got some bad review because it was considered to be boring and an entry level basic phone. I guess nowadays if your phone doesn't cost over $400 and doesn't do everything and anything it's considered "boring and basic". So if you are like me and don't fall into the must have the latest and the greatest crowd this would be good phone to look into.

Summary: Good Phone
Comment: This phone does happen to be my 1st phone and am more than satisfied with it. The only problem that i find with it is that sometimes when i talk to somebody i can hear them perfectly clearly one minute and the next i dont hear anything at all or if i do i hear the person speaking very unclearly. i loved the phone though it has a camera and it can record video, it has a good music player and i am really satisfied with it. I would reccommend it to any friend

Featuring a slim, slider design and a sumptuous coffee brown color, the sleek Samsung T819 for T-Mobile is a nicely affordable, highly functional phone that will keep you closely connected as you wind through the day and night. In addition to text messaging capabilities, you can chat with buddies using Yahoo!, MSN, AOL, or ICQ instant messaging services. This quad-band GSM phone makes global roaming a breeze, and it's ready for T-Mobile's upcoming 3G network. The phone also includes Bluetooth connectivity for both stereo music streaming and communication headsets, a 1.3-megapixel camera, MicroSD memory expansion, MP3 player with built-in stereo speakers, and a speakerphone. 
With T-Mobile's MyFaves service, you'll enjoy unlimited nationwide calling to your 5 favorite people. | T-Mobile Service
The T819 operates on GSM 850/900/1800/1900 networks and can handle high-speed data connectivity via T-Mobile's EDGE network (which stands for "Enhanced Data Rates for Global Evolution"). It's also one of T-Mobile's first handsets to use its new 3G UMTS/WCDMA network (1700 MHz), allowing you to download ringtones and games, send photos and videos to online albums, access high-speed color Internet sites, and email quickly while on the go. Where UMTS isn't available, the handset will automatically connect to T-Mobile's EDGE network. This phone is compatible with T-Mobile's myFaves service, which allows you to call up to five of your most common contacts--on any network, even landlines--without using any of your minutes. Learn more about myFaves from T-Mobile. It also includes the T-Mobile Address Book service, which lets you add or edit contact info online, store it on T-Mobile's server, and then synchronize the changes with your phone. You can import from Microsoft Outlook, .vcf files, or use .csv files to import from Yahoo!, Gmail, etc., as well as back up your phone's address book with enhanced safety features. 
The slim slider T819 offers stereo Bluetooth streaming capabilities and a 1.3-megapixel camera with video capabilities. | Phone Features
Measuring just 0.55 inches thin, the Samsung T819 sports a large 2-inch LCD screen with support for 65K colors and a 176 x 220-pixel resolution. The top of the phone includes a standard four-way toggle, two soft keys, and answer/end buttons, and the numeric keypad is found underneath the sliding face. The phone's camera lens requires that the face is slid open. The camera can snap pictures in four resolutions--from 128 x 96 to 1280 x 1024 pixels (1.3 megapixels)--and it offers a 4x digital zoom, night mode, brightness and white balance settings, self-timer, and multiple color effects. It can also record video clips with sound, and both images and videos can be saved either to the phone's shared 30 MB of memory or an optional MicroSD memory card. Because the T819 is Bluetooth enabled, wireless communication headsets can be configured with the phone for total hands-free operation. It also comes with a speakerphone option for when you don't have a Bluetooth headset handy, as well as voice recording capabilities for short notes to yourself. With the A2DP Bluetooth profile, you can stream your music to a pair of compatible Bluetooth stereo headphones. In addition to SMS text and MMS picture messaging capabilities, the T429 offers built-in instant messaging with Yahoo!, MSN, AOL, and ICQ services. The T9 predictive text entry technology is built into the unit, which makes it easier for you to enter words and text on handsets. Other features include: - Digital audio player compatible with MP3 and AAC/AAC+ files
- Up to 1000 contact entries with five numbers and one email address per entry
- Displays 30 dialed/received/missed calls and photo ID for callers
