Compare Prices for Samsung GT-I8000 Omnia II

Overall, the Omnia II impresses with its neat design, bright screen, good multimedia features and well rounded connectivity options. However, its sluggish processor lets the side down and with more and more speedy Snapdragon based phones appearing on the market, that’s quite a major issue in our book. Read full review

Three of the best Mid to high end Mobile Phones

LG Optimus 2X

Our rating:

9/10

It's officially the world's first dual-core smartphone but more crucially, is it the best?
Motorola Defy

Our rating:

9/10

A water-resistant and semi-rugged smartphone that's actually nice to use!
HTC Radar C110E

Our rating:

8/10

If HTC's Titan was too brutish for you, but you still like the idea of Windows Phone 7 handset, then the regular sized Radar might be more up your street.

How can 6.5 be the latest version when 6.5.3 is now out. Also, are you sure about the browser being Google Chrome? Who drew up the Feature Table?

Thanks for the review. Interesting that you don't seem to find the TouchWiz interface as unspeakably horrific and unusable as some of your colleages (see any and indeed all news items regarding Samsung phones). For what it's worth, I don't think it's all THAT bad either.

I personally wouldn't trust buying another Samsung phone. I think any tech site should take a look at the Jet reputation for example. This link http://www.facebook.com/SamsungJet/posts/322797872050 will show a prime example of what product level of product and level of support a Samsung buyer gets.

I would no longer trust the spec that Samsung claim their handsets have.

"Sadly it's not used the brand new Windows Phone 7 Series"

A little unfair as WP7 will not be released until Q4 2010 so 6.5.x is the latest WinMo OS.

I had lost faith in Samsung having tried some of their older models which were less than impressive, however this looks like they're moving in the right direction so good for them. Talking of their, disappointed to see the same typo 'there' in the same sentence. Tut tut guys - need a proof reader? LOL

I have had an i900 for about a year without any problems what so ever and so will be upgrading to an O2. You can customise every aspect of this phone so if you don't like the interface you can change it, unlike other phones i could mention.
