Samsung’s i900 Omnia gets official, hands-on treatment

June 08th, 2008 | Category: Cellphones

One of Samsung’s worst kept secrets (if we can even shout it that) has finally been “announced” by the company, and we’re guessing the timing here isn’t coincidental. Nevertheless, the Windows Mobile 6.1-powered i900 Omnia features quad-band GSM / GPRS / EDGE support, 7.2Mbps HSDPA, a built-in accelerometer, WiFi module, USB port, FM tuner, Bluetooth, 3.2-inch 400 x 240 resolution display and a 5-megapixel camera (with smile

detection and geotagging). An 8GB and 16GB version will soon be available, and prospective buyers can expect to see Sammy’s own TouchWiz user interface loaded on. Reportedly, the handset will be available later that month in undisclosed areas of the globe (probably after being showcased at CommunicAsia), while Europe is expected to see it in July. Hands-on photos await you in the Gadgets link.
