Slider concept is selected as a basic form. Like unites two phone, Samsung D880 body dimension is not slim like Samsung D900. The thickness reaches 1,89 cm. Not so fatty.
Body shape, include D880 sliding construction can be said adopts it old brother form, SGH D900. Unhappily, its slide mechanism does not as good as D900. Moreover, touch area to access the slide-up and slide-down felt few slippery, bothering enough.
Its four direction navigation button (D-Pad) is comfort enough to accessing the menu. “Yes” button placed in its middle side, which also able functioned as internet access shortcut. It’s functional enough.
D880 applies 2,3 inches screen with 240x320 pixels resolution ( QVGA) and 262.144 colors depth. Display power like this equal to D900 screen D900. Clear, sharp and soft impression can be seen clearly.

Samsung SGH-D880 has dual slot SIM card, which able to be attached by two GSM operator numbers. That why this phone recognized also with the Samsung Duos title. Both cellular numbers can be active at the same (Dual On). But, one of number acts as primary number.

The camera feature is not far different with its senior autofocus, shooting mode, timer, effects, frames, white balance, ISO and viewfinder mode.
