Guest Paul Posted June 15, 2009 Report Share Posted June 15, 2009 Tonight (June 15th) at 6PM BST is the culmination of the 'Samsung Unpacked' countdown to the launch of what we hope will be the new Samsung Omnia II / GT-I8000! I will be at the event - covering it live for MoDaCo - and you can enjoy the live coverage using the live feed below! Depending on the venue / connectivity etc. I might add a live video feed (unless Samsung are doing their own), but keep it locked to this topic as the event approaches! :D Phttp://www.coveritlive.com/index2.php/option=com_altcaster/task=viewaltcast/altcast_code=bfc007b226/height=500/width=800" scrolling="no" height="500px" width="800px" frameBorder ="0" ><a href="http://www.coveritlive.com/mobile.php?option=com_mobile&task=viewaltcast&altcast_code=bfc007b226" rel="external nofollow">Samsung Unpacked London</a> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Shuflie Posted June 15, 2009 Report Share Posted June 15, 2009 (edited) Didn't you see it yet? here are the pics :D Those look like the Samsung Louvre found over in this thread, not the Omnia II EDIT: The clue is in the unpacking teaser videos released, look at the Omnia II pictures and in particular the cube shaped D-pad (button?), then watch the videos to see what I mean. EDIT2: Looking at the picture of the Omna II in the above link and comparing to the x-ray image of the secret phone makes me even more certain that this is what is going to be released. Look at the button/slider on the right hand side near the bottom , its outline in shown very clearly in the x-ray.

Guest MAK11 Posted June 15, 2009 Report Share Posted June 15, 2009 (edited) Bit disappointing if there's no mention of the Omnia II!

Opening up a whole new world of web experience, its high performance Dolfin web browser has been developed in-house and allows easy, super fast surfing. Samsung Jet also supports the option of multi-window browsing to surf several web pages simultaneously - up to five pages at any one time. Also, it allows for multi-window web browsing and for book marking widget to save your favourite websites. Samsung Jet features a bespoke multi-tasking manager, making it little bit easier. In addition, the multiple background download, multi-purpose address field and ad-blocker ensure users only need to focus on what they really want to. Samsung Jet is the first feature phone to adopt the Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync Email system, with a more convenient user interface as a result of more streamlined push-email for business users. Breaking away from multi-touch zoom technology which requires the use of two fingers and two hands, Samsung Jet gives our consumers the ultimate in usability, portability and convenience through the brand-new concept - ‘one finger zoom,' which enables one hand operation to zoom in and out. One finger zoom can be used not only for the Internet browser, but also for Photo browser and file viewer to see TXT, PDF and PPT files in four times bigger size - all just with one finger tip while you're on the move. An Ultra Brilliant Display with AMOLED The Samsung Jet has a display which offers unrivalled quality and brilliance for its users. The 3.1" Samsung WVGA AMOLED display is four times sharper than a WQVGA screen. Samsung Jet's screen provides stunning, super bright and vivid images in perfect natural colours, with the very best high resolution display for viewing multimedia on the go. Samsung Jet's ultra brilliant display has a 180° viewing angle, gives a super fast touch response and is also very efficient in its power consumption. Thanks to WVGA AMOLED technology, Samsung Jet consumes 40% less energy than a mobile phone equipped with TFT-LCD display. The remarkable image quality transforms mobile content into amazing visuals. Thanks to the 480dpi brilliance in its WVGA AMOLED display, Samsung Jet provides a high quality multimedia experience, transforming mobile video into pure viewing pleasure. SAMSUNG JET: ‘SMARTER THAN A SMARTPHONE' Samsung Mobile is proud to launch the Samsung Jet - a high end innovation to mark a new chapter in full touch phones. Packed with features, Samsung Jet delivers the very best in power, speed and brilliance, all housed in a sleek and stylish design, to produce a unique touch experience. Background Information Speedy Performance with an Accelerated Application Processor Samsung Jet takes the meaning of performance in full touch mobile phones to another level with its revolutionary speed, which is all thanks to the 800MHz Accelerated Application Processor. This sophisticated high performance processor is Jet's secret to speed and versatility, integrating multiple applications into one marvelously seamless experience. Instant response from a 3D touch interface matches the speed of touch. The accelerated application processor can integrate various functions such as navigation and viewing, so users can access them all without usual lag time or blurred visuals that can disrupt the pleasure of the experience. Intuitive Interaction with TouchWiz 2.0 To ensure the most hassle free and pure experience for its user, Samsung Jet features TouchWiz 2.0 user interface (UI), an upgrade from previous TouchWiz user interfaces seen on the F480 (Tocco in UK) and other Samsung full touch mobiles. Building on the strong reputation of the interface of the F480, Samsung Jet houses an advanced TouchWiz 2.0, giving outstanding touch capability in online browsing and a powerful and responsive reaction. Multiple applications run both seamlessly and simultaneously through the use of Jet's powerful application processor, enabling users to dip in and out of the features as they wish. With its intuitive 3D media gate UI and motion-response UI, users can enjoy a dynamic, content-based experience. The 3D media gate on Samsung Jet offers easy access to six key multimedia features, such as Photo album, Music player, Video player, FM Radio, Games and internet, all simply accessed by rolling a six sided cube UI on the screen. Samsung Jet features ‘motion gate', Samsung's own motion recognition engine which brings you access to your multimedia favorites as well as speed dialing just by tapping, tilting or flipping the handset. To enhance the usability in full touch screen, Samsung introduces ‘smart unlock', a feature which enables users to unlock the phone and execute the menu directly by drawing an alphabet letter on the screen. Users can set up the menu that they want to go to directly according to the alphabet letters from A to Z. The ‘smart unlock' technology allows users to programme their own, customised movements in order to operate the handset, bringing the ultimate in personalisation. Samsung Jet has an online widget function to access useful mobile applications and get live information such as weather, news and search engines by online widget downloading. There are more than 30 widgets already available on Samsung Jet and users can download more from the website. These include a personalisation widget to adapt the screen layout and wallpaper. A three-page main menu and three-page widget screen offer quick and easy application search and reuse. Powerful, Fun and Easy to use Features Samsung Jet also has an A-GPS application, to provide navigation services in life-like 3D, to convey real places, information and directions in real-time. This incorporates 3D Map Navigation, GPS on Google maps and location-Based Services. The GPS system features Geo-tagging, enabled through a Geo- magnetic sensor to send location information and updates on traffic conditions by SMS, link location information to navigation, and a compass. Samsung Jet's GPS application can run on ‘Drive to' or ‘Walk to' modes. When it comes to music, Samsung Jet's unique features give users the option to operate simultaneous playback audio and scroll through the phone's music library with superb sound quality. For video, the DVD-like video playback recording (with D1 Video Playback and D1 30fps Video Recording) enables seamless playback without residuals and the ability to instantly download and play DivX and Xvid formats without converting, resizing and lateration - all in HD-like quality on its brilliant AMOLED screen.
