Reviews of the Samsung Omnia (8GB, Unlocked)
-
CNET Review
The Good: The Samsung Omnia features a nice touch screen and customizable interface that makes the Windows Mobile smartphone easier to use. It also has a 5-megapixel camera and a boatload of other multimedia features.
The Bad: You can't add additional widgets to the TouchWiz interface, and there are some nagging design quirks. The unlocked version does not offer U.S. 3G support, and it's expensive.
The Bottom Line: While there are some design quirks, and we're still waiting for a U.S. release, the Samsung Omnia promises to be a solid alternative to the Apple iPhone.

Review Summary: After launching in Europe almost a year ago, and then the U.S. before the holidays in December, Canada almost seems like the Omnia's last stop for the developed world, now that Bell and Telus are promoting it as an alternative to the iPhone.

Review Summary: We like the Omnia a lot. It brings Windows Mobile into a more consumer friendly world, adds a good camera and includes plenty of strong features. But both its optical mouse and its on-screen keyboards are disappointing.
