Awsome stuff now just to see a demo of this baby..800mhz cpu should make it snappier than the Omnia, plus the accelators for the video formats would be nice since im such a movie fiend on my current omnia now.

I like the slide out keyboard. that was the ONLY thing I like about the glyde. So with a hardware keyboard now we have more real estate open on the screen and it's a bigger screen

[dwallersv]

Full framerate 720p HD movie recording?

[Omega Ra]

no that's the i8910 (formerly known as the OmniaHD) this doesn't have that.

Well not exactly, Samsung just announced the Jet which looks like it, but not on WinMo though =(

Apparently Omnia II has been announced too

it's gonna be announced tomorrow, 16th of June

Will record video 720x480 at 30fps. They call it 480p. Depending if they use square pixels or not it will be a little bit wider than 640x480 or widescreen. Find more at samsungmobile.com.
Guess it's non wide screen as D1 which is mentioned also is "just" DVD video .
A big improvement in all cases, as long as the framerate keeps up reasonably in lower lighting.

The design its fake because Microsoft imposed to all manufacturers to include a windows key on every windows mobile phone. The design you see there does not include that.

I can tell its made in photoshop or something similar.

dude. EVERYONE can tell its made in photoshop.
can you say mockup?

Okay this shows the pics floating around in the last few days are the real deal... Unfortunately I don't understand if that "cube" on Omnia II works as a trackpad like our Omnias, because if it doesn't I will be very sad....



Anyway really nice upgrade to Samsungs WinMo phones , looking forward to HTC answer to this.

[Draconius]

SWEET!  Omnia II comig to Verizon
http://www.pcmag.com...,2348723,00.asp

Maybe the B7610 will come to Verizon also.  Damn the new phones make me drool.  Too bad I still have 14 months before I can get a new phone at agreement cost :happysad:

Are we sure about that ? I was wondering the same thing, and I'm kinda "live in denial" it's not true.

Is there _any_ of the announced new models that allows _some_ form of scrolling  -- either mechanical, or optical (like the optical pad on the i900) ?

Sure, the specs look "schweet", but in practice all that "oh, shiny stuff, I want" will rub off rather quickly and I'll just start swearing at the lack of my ability to scroll in the old apps.

Anyone ?

Thanks,

Florian

Noticeable upgrade from our old omnia

1. Screen Size = 3.7" ok that's huge
2. Screen Type = AMOLED visibility under the sun is rest assured
3. Screen Resolution = WVGA no more pixelation
4. Screen Responsiveness = Advanced R  (whats that? capacitive-like?)
5. Video Recording = 480p True DVD Quality 480 x720 30fps
6. Video Lights = Dual power LEDs no more video light turn half bright, now double brightness
7. HSUPA = 5.76Mbps well ok hopefully my network support this
8: New 3D UI with cube navi key = TouchWiz 2.0 ok nice to keep and showing off
9: FAster CPU = 800Mhz
10: Connector = 3.5mm and MiniUSB (no more samsung propriety crap)

No 8 Megapixel?

IMO Samsung is really F'ing up with resistive touchscrren crap.  if you look at my 910 at the right angle, the screen is sort of rippled in certain areas because you have to repetetively MASH the screen to make it work.  And also IMO, from messing around with a G1 for a little bit, I'm so sick of windows mobile.  I'm just so tired of little, teeny tiny tabs and buttons for settings.  And then if you want something better, you have to sift through tons of diffetrent shells and UI's and.......ugh ...frustrated with winmo to say the least.  The OS needs a HUGE improvement.

Omnia II officially announced.
Here's the GSMarena link

http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_s8000_jet_and_samsung_i8000_omnia_ii_unveiled-news-972.php

It'll be infact named "Omnia" as it is windows mobile. But not sure abt the OmniaHD - there are still confusions abt its name in several parts of the world.

SO Keep Updating this thread.
And if possible, the OP might remove the "?" from the thread title!

Silver Omnia II anyone?
