- One such contender for the throne is Samsung with its i900 handset. The Omnia, as it is more commonly known, whose moniker translates as ‘everything’ in Latin and ‘wish’ in Arabic, claims.
- Samsung Omnia (SGH-i900) mobile phone - First Look. Running Microsoft's Windows Mobile 6.1 operating system, Samsung has left the OS unfettered on its new 'Flagship' model and unlike HTC who.
Samsung has thrown its oar in the mixing pot with its iPhone wannabe, but can the device match the power of Apple’s consumer centric device? We were given a chance to play with the handset before the official announcement.
The Samsung Omnia - it means everything in Latin - is according to Samsung a phone that will be 'everything to everyone'.
Promising full touchscreen functionality with a business rather than consumer focus, the Omnia sports a 3.2-inch screen, comes with HSDPA 7.2Mbps and Wi-Fi connectivity, a 5 megapixel camera, accelerometer and will come with two memory options 8 or 16GB.
The design is simple, although not as simple as the iPhone. The 3.2-inch touchscreen dominates the design, and there are a three buttons underneath this for those not completely ready to go full touch.
Getting around the need for a stylus with any small on-screen buttons the d-pad also doubles as a trackpad to control an on-screen mouse pointer.
Haptic feedback makes the phone vibrate when you touch the screen and like other Samsung or LG handsets this is either something you love or hate. Personally I think it’s akin to getting an electric shock from a stair rail or door knob.
Running Microsoft's Windows Mobile 6.1 operating system, Samsung has left the OS unfettered on its new 'Flagship' model and unlike HTC who seem keen to customise the OS as much as possible, this is pure Windows for the pure Windows Mobile fan.
Of course that’s either a really good thing or a really bad thing depending on your view point of Windows Mobile, but for us it's a bit of a shame. While the IT department will embrace you with open arms, in day-to-day use it is just a bit clunky really and certainly no where near as graphically nice to use as the HTC Diamond or the iPhone.
Luckily when it comes to internet browsing Samsung has realised that IE just isn’t up to the job and so you’ll also find Opera Mobile on-board as well. The browser is incredibly easy to use and thanks to the inclusion of the accelerometer, viewing pages in landscape mode is as easy as turning the device.
On a performance front, in our brief play the phone performed well coping with the requests we asked for. The touchscreen also seemed more responsive than previous consumer Samsung mobile phones we’ve tested and overall Windows users should be happy.

It might feature a large touchscreen, but an iPhone competitor this isn’t; nor is the i900 likely to stand up to any Android handset prototype we’ve seen to date down to the unimaginative user interface.
However, as a Windows Mobile 6.1 device, this will please the Windows crowd.
If you miss your iPAQ, and are looking for a business 'iPhone'-styled device this looks to be your answer, just don’t expect to get excited about the interface.
The Samsung Omnia i900 is due out in August.

Samsung continues to push deeper and further into every conceivable tech market, including every category of mobile phone. The next big thing to be added to its hefty mobile portfolio is the Samsung Omnia i900, a Windows Mobile smart phone that packs a cornucopia of features. But is this another Samsung touchscreen phone that fails to deliver?
The Omnia is available on several networks, including Orange and Vodafone, for free on a monthly contract. You can also buy it SIM-free at eXpansys for £480.

Design
Samsung's dalliances with touchscreen phones have been hit and miss, but the Omnia looks every part the high-end touchscreen phone you want it to be. A black and silver colour scheme gives it a serious look that echoes the iPhone's casing. What it doesn't have, unfortunately, is the iPhone's quality feel.

A black and silver colour scheme gives it a serious look that echoes the iPhone's casing. What it doesn't have, unfortunately, is the iPhone's quality feel.
The Samsung Omnia feels a little on the light side and that's due to its plastic casing. In our opinion, it's inspiring to hold than the glass and plastic combo on the iPhone 3G or, better still, the glass and metal combo of the original iPhone. The Omnia's plastic screen in particular lacks the quality feel of the iPhone's glass one.
Casing materials aside, the Omnia is just about the right size. It's slim enough to put in a pocket comfortably, but the screen is large enough to enjoy watching videos or browsing the Web on. The Omnia is also pretty comfortable to make phone calls with using just one hand -- and there's not a stylus in sight.
The Omnia's screen is large and responsive but not always as accurate as we'd like
Features
While it doesn't always work, there's something admirable about Samsung's approach to features, which essentially consists of cramming as much stuff into a phone as possible. To start with the Omnia boasts both HSDPA and Wi-Fi, giving you high-speed access to your emails and the Web almost everywhere you go.

Like the HTC Touch Diamond, the Omnia comes pre-installed with Opera Mobile 9.5, which lets you browse full Web pages in a similar way to how you do on an iPhone -- allowing you to zoom in and out of pages by tapping the screen. The screen is not as responsive as the iPhone's when it comes to accurately tapping something, however.

Indeed, the Omnia's screen is a great point of contention for us, because while it isn't always as responsive as we'd like -- when scrolling, for example -- it's one of the most responsive Windows Mobile touchscreen devices out there. So while we'd like to say that it's as good as the iPhone's screen, we can't, but it is good compared to its Windows Mobile competition.

Samsung has done a superb job at making the Windows Mobile interface more finger-friendly, adding shortcut menus and large icons galore. It's fairly easy to navigate your way around, and unlike the HTC Touch Diamond's lag-inducing TouchFLO 3D interface, Samsung's additions don't seem to slow things down at all.
