Samsung Omnia i900 Black and White Gallery

Say hello to my little friend, the sexy quad band HSDPA 7.2mps Samsung Omni i900 Smartphone. This Windows Mobile PocketPC 6.1 powered handset sports a 3.2 inch screen (240×400 pixels) and an optical mouse similar to whats built on the Samsung I780.  The Omnia i900 pushes the bar further with its 5 mega pixel auto focus camera, with face detection and auto panorama shot capabilities.  On the storage front , the phone has 8gb and 16gb versions and also adds a microSD slot.  Critics are quick to point out that this is simply an iphone clone.  Well call it what you will and yes the dimensions are eerily similar to the iphone but Samsung has at least brought something new to the table.

Today we get to unbox a Samsung Armani,  a direct threat to LG’s Prada Phone which has enjoyed modest success.  This candy bar sized phone feels and looks very solid yet not heavy in one’s palm. Its dimensions are 87.5×54.5×10.5mm and weighs just 85 grams. It’s obvious that the craftsmanship is of a high caliber compared to many other phones we see today. The display, a 240×320 pixel 2.6 inch touch screen is surrounded by a metallic bezel and the back cover also has a matte metallic like finish. The Armani’s edges are coated in a non slippery plastic that blends well with the rest of the body.  The phone uses a 3.2 mega pixel camera which takes nice pictures. As for the touchscreen display, well its a nice display but mediocre for it simply lacks sensitivity.  The Samsung “croix” interface is aesthetically quite pleasing and navigating the menus is a speedy affair.  The fast launch menu, accessible by tapping the center of the screen, contains the following five options Calls, Messages, Contacts, Player and the Menu. The screen is bright and has good contrast. Overall I would say this is a good start by Samsung and were looking forward to their future designer offerings.
