Samsung Omnia for Verizon, a touchscreen Windows Mobile 6.1 phone that's been slicked up with Samsung's TouchWiz UI and a five-megapixel camera, plus it's that rare Verizon beast that also packs Wi-Fi. The Omnia is a Windows Mobile 6.1 phone, so at the basic level, you know what...

No longer does Windows Mobile alone a capable smartphone make. The platform's core is as relevant, powerful, and well-supported as ever, but that's not the problem -- the real issue is that it's just plain hard to look at. The days of WinMo looking even remotely modern in its stock...

Samsung has made it very easy to love the Omnia by adding a surfeit of features that can appeal to everyone: the mobile professional, the multimedia fiend, and even the fashion conscious.

Things I like: Looks: Very solid hardware. Plus I think its one of the best looking handsets around, very stylish. I get comments all the time like "oh nice, which phone is that". Features: Man, I don't think there is any feature this phone doesn't have built in. Apps: The...

The hardware here is great, but the Samsung TouchWiz interface is not. But there are a variety of things you can do about it. First of all, there are many custom shells for Windows Mobile, I am currently using spb Mobile Shell and loving it. I have also seen a variety of other shells, but I...

The phone is resistive touch. This means that pressure is required to register a touch, which some people don't like but I don't mind. You really should try it in the store to decide. It's not like the iPhone's capacitative screen. If you're getting the i910 on verizon,...

I have ran with the i730, i760, and now the i900. Every phone was solid. The build quality compared to other devices it the best I have seen. I had major spills with all three devices and each one kept on ticking. If you are mobile even a little bit during the work week I suggest you get this...

The Omnia has a great integration of the down and dirty functions needed in a phone. The on screen typing works well even with sausage fingers like I have. There are multiple word guess schemes that can be implemented, but the phone does a great job recognizing what letters you wish to select....

the omnia as delivered from vzw was not a bad phone/pda, but was lacking in certain areas. it was kind of slow, and the sammy widget bar was maddening when you had to pull the icon for the item you wanted to use onto the desktop. the today 2 interface was way too cluttered for my taste, as i like...

the omnia has (mostly) everything we want, however, it just doesn't run everything as smoothly as we'd like. and using everything will kill the battery in no time. regardless, it's still one of the top 3 best phones on verizon. not much more you could ask for in regards to...

I flashed this to a custom 6.5 ROM and it works great. The GPS is a bit slow to start, but once it is running, it's very responsive. Sharing the Internet connection is easy with WifiRouter. The camera on the phone is very solid. I've replaced my point-and-shoot with it, meaning I...

The fact that this phone uses Winmo is not a factor in my rating. Winmo has its well known short comings and I was certainly aware before I bought it, but with a lot of work you can beat it into submission (usability). The problem with the phone is its crappy touch screen. I have used PDAs...

To be honest, I wanted an iPhone, but I have Verizon. I did a lot of research and I thought the Omnia fit all my needs. Definitely more than just a phone. Hardware - Decent speed processor, so not too sluggish, which is what I hear many Win Mo hones have. Get an SD card and save apps to...

This phone does do a lot of things well. It connects to Verizon's network and WIFI with ease. The app support you can get is amazing (after all its Windows Mobile based). It also is of course on Verizon, which gives it one of the most stable networks there is. I do believe this phone is...
