INTRODUCTION
I think there's an unspoken race among WinMo OEMs to add as many features as possible to new devices. And hey, we're not complaining. The Omnia i900 from Samsung, which unapologetically looks like an iPhone, has a robust list of capabilities. Features like a wide QVGA screen, up to 16GB of onboard storage, an accelerometer for automatic screen rotation, and an optical joystick for easy one-handed operation make us pay a lot of attention to the device. This is the review you want to read to discover all the neat tricks that the Omnia can do. Read on for our comprehensive review of the Omnia i900!
WHAT'S HOT
The Omnia i900 looks great on paper. The 3.2" screen has a unique resolution of WQVGA, or 240x400. That makes for a pixel density of 145PPI, which is a bit low in comparison to other devices. It's running on Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional, packing a Marvell CPU at 624MHz with 96MB RAM and 96MB ROM, plus 16GB or 8GB of additional memory that acts as an on-board storage card. For further expansion, the Omnia has a microSD slot. It's a quadband phone with GSM850/900/1800/1900, but only has the UMTS2100 band, meaning that 3G won't work in the US. It has 802.11 b/g WiFi, Bluetooth 2.0, an FM tuner, and aGPS. For one-handed usage, there is an optical joystick that controls a mouse cursor on the screen. The camera shoots at 5.0MP and has a flash, and the front camera shoots at VGA resolution. Powering it all is a nice-sized 1440mAh battery.
