Samsung i8910 Omnia HD is revolutionary. It will go down in history as the first mobile phone to have HD recording technology, putting even some of the camcorders to shame. It is not just a one trick pony though, the specs sheet is ecstatically featureful: 8MP camera, 3.7” AMOLED screen, an extremely compatible media player, WiFi and HSDPA connection, Symbian S60 5th Edition… The list goes on. Don’t feel guilty if you feel the urge to press the Add Cart button now!
You find in the package the phone, a battery, a charger, a stereo handsfree, a data cable and a user’s guide.
i8910 Omnia HD comes with an omnipresent 3.7” AMOLED screen. It is sensible for Samsung to have as enormous a screen as possible because you want every detail of the HD clips to be seen clearly. Convenience is the buzzword for telecommunication nowadays. The long customizable list of widgets at the homescreen of i8910, inherited from earlier models like Samsung M8800 Pixon and Samsung S8300 UltraTOUCH, can best exemplify that.
An in-built memory of 8GB and an expandable memory up to 32GB with MicroSD. It guarantees enough space for your HD videos.
On the right side lie the hold key, camera shutter and the USB port.
At the bottom are the mouth piece, half of the speakerphone construction and the 3.5mm audio jack
The plastic battery cover is a fingerprint collector, but the fact that the camera lens is left uncovered is even worse. I wish Samsung had been more considerate. The camera is worthy of attention: 8 magepixel with LED that can be used in Video Recording, auto-focus, face/smile/blink detection and of cause the HD 24fps video recording. I have to agree with the Samsung ads that the video quality is superior.
Like other Symbian S60 V5.0 handsets ( Nokia 5800 XpressMusic, Nokia N97), the interface is very user friendly. You can choose between list or grid view of menu.
GPS and MySpace are on board.
Auto-rotation is made possible by accelerator for better playback of videos and pictures. It is best for motion-enabled 3D games.
Samsung i8910 Omnia HD has surely got my vote. The deep black color is a good match for the sophisticated phone. Ground breaking HD recording still has me gaping. The monstrous media player supporting an array of formats including Xvid, DivX would not disappoint you. Symbian S60 V5.0 offers simple and smooth operation. Don’t you wanna add it to your cart?
