Samsung SGH-i900 Omnia

INTRO I got a bit fed up with my Samsung SGH-i600 as I found it a bit on the slow side and the lack of a touch screen limited what I can do on the Windows Mobile operating system. I selected the the Samsung SGH-i900 (aka: OMNIA) to be worthy of becoming the replacement. It's supposed to be an "iPhone killer" and similarly, has a full touch screen interface. I bought my Omnia on eBay for £366 to avoid increasing my contract cost with Orange. I threatened to leave orange so they gave me a £15 deal with 750 minutes talk time and unlimited texts but normally, if you were to get the Omnia with ... more

*NEGA REVIEW!* The Samsung Omnia is Samsung’s attempt in creating an all-in-one phone. They call it the Omnia because they were so confident that it could do everything, but the fact is it can’t.

If you love using a PC, this is THE phone for you. Apparently the term Omnia means 'Everything' in Latin, and 'Wish' in Arabic, so the expectation associated to this new ... more

The first time I got the phone it looked fantastic - it was a good size and shape, a touch screen, a stylus (although this was weirdly situated on a string dangling off the phone.) It has a huge amount of memory on it, so far i've used 216.62 MB and I still have 15139.38 MB free! So there is definitly no problem with space on this phone. When I first purchased this phone it was quite expensive and I do not feel it lives up to its price. Getting your way around On the front screen which you get to first contains two touch sensitive buttons at the bottom saying phone and main menu. The phone ... more
