Samsung i900 Omnia on BidsTick.com
The Samsung Omnia i900. Hyped as the one phone that could slay the iPhone, it didn’t take long for Samsung to actually release the gadget to the market after making their announcement – quite rare for a company to do that.
As always, let’s start with how it looks. The i900 measures at 112 x 56.9 x 12.5mm, and weighs in at 127g. Like the iPhone, it also sports a large 3.2 inch screen. Below that you have three buttons, Call and End, as well as the innovative Samsung mouse. The phone has a great feel thanks to its plastic brushed metal back, which is really made of plastic but feels nice in the hand anyway.
Samsung’s done some good work at making Windows Mobile work for this gadget. Users will find the touch screen easy to use, with big icons for finger movement. Using the bundled stylus even makes work on the phone easier.
One of the Samsung Omnia’s best features is haptic feedback. This allows users to feel what they’re doing on the phone, as every tap on the screen comes with a slight vibration, letting you know if the phone actually took down what you typed in.
Last but not least is the Samsung Omnia i900’s camera. This is its ace in the hole. The phone comes with a fantastic 5 mega pixel camera, capable of producing images with a maximum resolution of up to 2592 x 1944 pixels. The camera also comes with autofocus, digital image stabilizer, face recognition, smile detection, and geotagging. For night time shots, you can use the phone’s LED flash.
So, is the Samsung Omnia i900 worthy of taking over the iPhone? Maybe, maybe not. Those who have purchased both phones are divided in their opinions. In any case, the Samsung Omnia is a great looking phone with equally great features and capabilities. These babies get to be featured in our penny auction system so gadget lovers better keep your eyes open for them!
