On 25.11.2008 Samsung and Verizon Wireless confirmed that the new smartphone Samsung Omnia Smartphone will be available soon for their clients.
 For starters, Samsung Omnia looks a bit insane because there is no stylus available. But thats’s exactly what Samsung wants us to do… to touch the phone with the fingers and quit using the stylus. The Samsung Omnia has no place to store a stylus; for that they designed a interesting interface called Touchwiz, a rival to HTC’s touchFLO 3D. It’s not as great as the TouchFLO but it has a very good usability and functionality. Samsung Omnia has also a optical d-pad which can be used like a desktop mouse or to navigate in a four-way mode. This toy is the main argument that you don’t always need a stylus to use a windows mobile PocketPC (we all know how difficult is usually to tap those “X” and “ok” buttons that appear in the corners of windows mobile software).  

This phone seems to have it all: 7.2Mbps HSDPA 2100, quadband EDGE, 3.2-inch capacitive WQVGA touchscreen, aGPS, Windows Mobile 6.1, WiFi b/g, 8 or 16GB of memory, microSD expansion slot for memory cards (to get to the microSD slot, you’ll have to remove the battery lid) and a high-quality 5 megapixel autofocus camera with digital zoom and power LED flash. For web browsing you can use Opera 9.5 Mobile Browser. The mobile office pack is present (Mobile Outlook for emails ; Word, Excel and PowerPoint to view or edit the different types of documents right on your phone screen). The camera is very good for a mobile phone and it’s capable of autofocus. you can view the photos with a application called Photo Slides.

When you want to record a video the resolution is limited to 640×480 pixels with 15 frames per second. The used format is MPEG4, maybe better than the old 3gp, but don’t expect for video or sound quality. The 624MHz Marvell PXA312 processor and 128 MB RAM/256 MB ROM give this phone enough power to open all menus and programs smoothly. The sigle drawback might be the 240 x 400 pixels display resolution that isn’t suported by all the windows mobile software.

Samsung Omnia is already available for online orders. The price is US$ 249.99 after a US$ 70 mail-in rebate with a new two-year customer agreement. You’ll find it in Verizon Wireless Communications Stores starting with 8th of December 2008.
