Samsung i900 Omnia white 16GB Deals

The Samsung Omnia (the i900 in Samsung parlance) is an amazing "bells and whistles"-heavy solid bar phone with a large 3.2-inch (diagonal) touchscreen. With more than a passing homage to Apple's iPhone, the Omnia is only 12.5 mm thick, but packs an awful lot inside its sleek black exterior.

Take your pick from "everything" (Latin) or "wish" (Arabic) as to the moniker's meaning, but it does offer pretty much everything a business, entertainment or camera buff would need in a smartphone. There is a 5 megapixel camera with autofocus, face detection and geo-tagging, video and a whopping 16 GB internal memory capacity. Moreover, the screen auto-rotates so you can choose how you view Web pages and video content.

The browser software is Opera 9.5 for fast, accurate page loading and the Omnia comes with Google search and Gmail functionality. There is A-GPS satellite navigation, with a basic mapping tool but coupled with Wi-Fi or 3G for a fast start-up time: however, you have to purchase the actual GPS application separately.

The touchscreen technology is identical to that used on the iPhone and you can grow to rely on and love this method of navigating a phone's features.

For the rest, the Omnia ticks all the boxes, from the card slot for additional storage, Bluetooth and USB connectivity, to 3G with HSDPA up to 7.2 Mbps download speeds, FM radio and MP3 player with excellent audio quality and quadband GSM support for international roaming.
