Excelent windows mobile phone
I've had my omnia 2 for a week. It looks and behaves very well.
I've had smartphones from palm (treo 650), nokia(5800), hp (ipaq 910, sony ericcsson xperia x1 and before that, I had allways used PDAs with windows pocket pc.
The omnia 2 is the best one I've ever had. The touch screen works very well, multimedia files go without problem and the most important to me. PIM (agenda, contacts, tasks) have the easy and powerfull management that WM users are used to.
Setting up the internet was a little tricky, but that's because this unlocked international version phone was configured for singapur operators. A little google and then I found the answers. By the way, if you need to change your default country, you better do it before installing anything, or you'll loose your info.
Blutooth works great. It self configured to work with my motorola stereo headphones and the handsfree.
Cons. Little included documentation about seting up for a specified country and language. A little slippery to grip. Little accesories available.
Pros. Touch Screen size and response, applications installed, windows mobile 6.5 functions, fits in my shirt pocket, general behavor.
Great smartphone!
I'm a heavy business and personal smartphone user: mainly for emails and watch TV shows and movies on the phone. And this phone absolutely rocks in both areas.
* Video: Is the best device regarding video capabilities that I've ever had (HTC Dash, HTC Touch, HTC Diamond, HTC Touch Pro, and now Omnia).
Coming from the Touch Pro, I kinda miss the physical keyboard, but typing especially in landscape is acceptable (not like and actual keyboard, but is very good). The Samsung media player reproduces with EXCELLENT quality, however, myself being used to the advanced features in TCPMP, could be seen as a downgrade. Anyhow, I'd rather use the S. Media Player to gain with the tremendous video quality.
* Screen: And if we talk about quality, the screen in this phone is astonishing.
* Interface: Also like very much how Samsung redesigned the WinMo to be much touch-friendly. I've used the original Samsung today with the Widgets for a week or so. The interface is pretty good, but the available widgets are sometimes, or too big, or too rudimentary, so now I'm testing the SPB Mobile Shell (kinda reminds me the HTC Touch Flo most of the time) and I'm comfortable with it.
* Camera: as other reviewers pointed out, takes a second or 2 to load it. And let's face it, we're not buying a Canon EOS. But being a phone camera, with 5mp, is a great camera. The best feature is the panorama capability, works great and does the image stitching pretty fast and accurately. Amazed with this feature.
* TouchScreen: absolutely rocks! I know, is not the Iphone touch, but is the closest you can find. Very responsive.
* Overall: a great product, totally worth the money spent. Highly recommended!
Great phone!
I bought this phone in January after reading reviews on Amazon. I was a bit apprehensive especially considering the fact that the phone has no warranty. However, I am more than satisfied with the quality of the phone. The calibration is very good; very good speakers, and photo quality. It is like having a separate camera. I spend lots of time on the phone either playing games, listening to music or watching movies. The only down side with regards to movies is that it only seems to play movies in DiVX or XVid only.
Like the previous reviewer, my phone got a crack in the screen, but it has not affected its functionality. I took extra precautions by buying a protective cover for it so that I can use it for a longer period.
Very nice phone.
Best phone for me yet !
Pros: Battery life, colorful display, good quality camera pictures, GPS works great with Garmin software (for offline use) and ever more...
Cons: None yet... ;)
