Product Details
The Samsung Omnia II impresses with hardware but fails to do so with software.
The hardware in question: a 3.7-inch, WVGA, AMOLED, resistive touchscreen; a 5-megapixel camera; Wi-Fi; 30fps video recording; and 8 GB of storage with the option to increase that via microSD card.
The software? Windows Mobile 6.5, which is admittedly much better than originally expected; early versions of the Omnia II had Windows Mobile 6.1. The phone also runs TouchWiz 2.0. Admittedly, it's not running a hip new phone OS like Android or webOS, but it will get the job done.
The Omnia II will ship in the United States through Verizon on December 2nd, 2009. It will cost $199.99 after a $100 mail-in rebate, as the standard goes.
