The Samsung Omnia is starting to cause quite a stir across the internet. If the slick promo video on the official website isn’t enough to interest you then check the specs. A 5 megapixel camera with auto focus and LED flash – yes, a 5 megapixel shooter. Then you’ve got the fast HSDPA 7.2Mbps connectivity with WiFi, GPS, Bluetooth 2.0, USB 2.0, FM radio with RDS and a whizzy TouchWiz UI from Samsung.
Oh, and did we not mention the 16Gb storage with microSDHC slot, TV output, geo-tagging, business card recognition and content-sharing with fellow Samsung DNLA kit? Eh ? Eh ? Oh, and there’s a juicy 1440mAh battery to give you long usage times too.
So it’s all good, but when is it coming to your local stores? Well, we can reveal that the Samsung Omnia i900 is on sale now on Orange. The 16Gb version should be arriving in stores TODAY – Saturday August 16th. According to our sources you can get it free on the £40 p/m tariff. Sure, Orange have the BlackBerry Bold exclusive, but the Omnia is the handset we’re loving at the minute!
Let us know if you’ve got one on Orange – we’d love your pictures and thoughts. Hey.. Samsung / Orange PR … we’d love to hear from you too! 😉
