iPhone-esque Samsung i900

| 17 Comments
Familiar looks, but totally different  We’ve heard and seen supposed spy shots of this upcoming mobile phone, but now Samsung has made the i900 Omnia official. GSM Arena reports that it will make its debut in Singapore on June 17, but all the details regarding its specifications are already public. Click to enlarge It’s another touch screen-enabled mobile phone that aims at providing consumers with an alternative to the pioneering iPhone. It runs on Windows Mobile 6.1 Pro and has a brilliant 3.2-inch Wide QVGA (240x400 pixels) display. It also manages to incorporate a 5-megapixel camera with autofocus and face and smile detection which makes this device a cut above the rest of the current pack. It's a relatively well connected device with 3.5G capabilities and Wi-Fi support. Entertainment features include a built-in FM radio, multimedia player and stereo Bluetooth. Storage wise, it’s quite hefty with 8GB and 16GB models scheduled to be released. All these can be found in a very slender 12.5mm thin body. The target market availability is this month though no specifics were given as to where it will make its first appearance. Coincidentally (or not), Apple is also expected to unveil version 2.0 of the iPhone today and it seems that Samsung wants to upstage the Jobs empire. We’re hoping that the new iPhone will be as enticing as the i900 if not better, but I highly doubt that it will come with a 5.0-megpixel camera.

Wow!They're on it.
If you want it,
and you need it,
well, you got money,
come and get it!
Opps! why not both,
get the i900 Omnia
and so the iPhone2
you look just great.
But I'll be amazed
and wonder how you'd be
with both hands full.
Imagine!!!

The price for this phone is around s$900.

looks like to be a great phone but pricewise? eeeeennnnkkk! too expensive!

where can i buy this? thanks

anybody here who already owns Samsung Omnia (i900)? Share your gadget experience please....what about it's battery capability? prons and cons about the phone? thanks.

The battery capability is very good and lasts several days on 1 charge. Mostly just pros about the Omnia so far (using the latest Rom) and the landscape qwerty keyboard is a treat to use. The camera is easy to use and takes great pictures for a phone. The screen size, colors and clarity is also good, but it would have been even better if the resolution could have been higher like on the upcomming Xperia and HD.

Great iPhone killer! But it seems not very solid built.

just what i waz looking 4!!

Samsung can never get up close with Apple. They can only be Apple-wannabe.

Samsung certainly lack the sofistication of Apple but they can certainly crack the "lower cost" iPhone equivalent market. Huskies for Sale
