PRODUCT INFORMATION:
The Samsung D980 is the third handset in the Samsung DuoS range after the D880 and D780, a device capable of taking two SIM cards which essentially makes it two mobile phones in one. The main selling proposition of the two previous phones was the dual-SIM arrangement, but the D980 is an interesting phone in its own right. Featuring a 2.6" 320 x 240 pixel touchscreen display and a 5 megapixel camera with autofocus and flash, the D980 pitches itself at the higher end of the market. There's also an FM radio, and as you would expect there is a multimedia player, microSD expandable memory, web browser and email client plus a document viewer.
It makes a few compromises - the Samsung D980 isn't a 3G device (Samsung don't seem to have cracked the dual SIM arrangement for UMTS yet), video capture isn't as good as the similarly specced LG KU990, and it's a slightly heavy device at 117 grams and 98 x 55 x 16mm (presumably in part due to the larger battery that DuoS devices need).
We have covered the DuoS system before, so we will just briefly recap that it's very easy to use and gives two completely separate profiles.. it really is like having two different physical handsets in one unit.
