[svanidis]

hi there,

one question from me

on settings /lock screen why dont i get "edit lock screen" or "display owner info"

?

[Aristowi]

I use cell ohones to make phone calls and text msg, for the rest I have my computer, I still dont find these gadgets useful

[victorteles95]

@Aristowi well, they're portable... and super cool! LOL

[DaverLK]

someone pls help me! i also have omnia 2. but on the main screen, the battery icon disappeared. it's not there! only: 3G, gradient icon, profil icon. but the battery isn't there! so: there is small icons but when i touch them i only see 3 icons! pls someone help! how can i get back the battery icon?

[skillzgone2waste]

I'm confused. I just watched a video where the touch screen sucked!

[Derkie3026]

I am not going to lie people are right this phone is really laggy, but at the same time it is really good, I have had one for about 4 months bow after having a iPhone 3Gs and personally I like this one more, now I know people are going to say shit, but the interface and the phone is just great, plus it costs me way less then my iPhone ever did. I do not do as much in it, so yea. And a 1GB data plan on it is more then enough.

[khylerpay]

the screen looks horrible to me

[houssam1997]

@khylerpay WHAAAAAAAAAT!!!!

[olemorten14]

I forgot my password on my Omnia II i8000 and i don't how to delete it, can anyone help?

[rtjim101]

i wish you made a playlist of your videos..

you got great presentation of the product by the way,but it seems i got lost in all your videos..

i finished watching your first series but i think it was not enough to explain the whole capabilities of this phone..i got one by the way,but i was thinking of buying an iphone..

on your opinion,which one is better? samsung omnia 2,or the i phone 3gs?

[mrmohsin00]

@rtjim101 i'll prefer this one to an iphone

[Nidaie]

I'm In Lovee. :0

[adoymota]

DEMASIADO CRIMINAL

[lilidenoir]

I have a question...

Can I change the backgroung of the meny? this green is boooring... Is it unchangable? because almost every Samsung i8000 i've seen on youtube had this green meny backgroung =( or may it be that the reviewers just didn't bother to change it???

[pcstudios1]

i buy it and i love it....in iphone you pay the name "Aple" nothing more... trust me.. you pay all aplications, problem with bluetooth i had i phone and i sell it... because if i dont sell it i burn it,.... omnia is a lovely phone and is samsung.. nothing more

[yungin864]

this is sick

[1ichbinderking]

[Skullworld]

I don't understand why every single phone on the market today has an ugly interface.

[armandolara94]

@Skullworld Get the iPhone 4, now that will make you jizz your pants.

[Skullworld]

It's probably the best looking phone. But I still think it looks bad. :P

[Jonas104]

@Skullworld that's why you buy the palm phones... no junky looking screens.

[mrloveahmed]

each phone working with different OS jet work on java & omnia2 work on windows mobile so, which OS that you need......

[bababusha]

@mrloveahmed

[thelostworld]

[bluefisch200]

Puh i am happy that MS has created a new OS and Windows Mobile Classic will die...it was about damn time if you look at this video...

[Chrisjaldin]

Never, never, never better than an iPhone.

[drunkIogic]

@Chrisjaldin duh, the only phone being compared to the iphone is the moto droid.

[livingxxdeadxxgirl]

[phoenixwill]

[gus051]

@phoenixwill duhhh

[cooliomcawsum]

now im not trying to start a war here but alot of these newer phones like the droid and even this phone do have a little more lag than you would expect. my dad just bought his droid phone and i have to say my ipod touch is WAY quicker and responsive than the droid. now im not saying every touch screen phone should be just like the ipod touch, but they should at least step up their game if their response time is worse than an mp3 player.

[purplesox100]

@cooliomcawsum that's the ipod touch,but what about the iphone.

[cooliomcawsum]

now not trying to

[wwwThePoWlde]

hm... seems to be a little bit laggy :-( is this true? i actually favored this mobile phone

[g0m99]

It's laggy because it has alot of bloatware on it. The Hardware is quite nice. If you want this phone, I'd suggest getting a ROM from Modoca, or XDA and it will make it very snappy.

[telaeddy77]

howi can change my lock screen if i have got 6.5 version

[G13loumis]

my phone doesn t have task manager on the bottom

[harshreality86]

Is this phone good?

I have heard rather many comments that its super laggy ):

im still thinking if i should buy it !

[iLoveChrisPaulxTyler]

i heard the same things , thats why im so skeptical .

[serrre5]

Well I don't trust WM divices since I have had Samsung Omnia i900 and i8000... It is super laggy...

[mrkiss3]

@harshreality86 same here im just thinking fuk it gunna buy it lol

[scvs2]

Ooh looks like you know Jon Rettinger hehe...

[tersol3210]

[yassinelive]

realy nice phone !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[boymusic14]

im goona buy this man he so amzing !

[PR0UDCANADIAN87]

does this phone have grouped text messages?

[cristianvantu]

it's ridiculos near an iphone. it's a shame. look at that Bolywood style tasteless design :-) with many colours and anoying forms. What is the utility of the cube ? none. They designed it to have something what moves around there :-) It's for stupid kids. Far, far, away from the ergonomic, predictible, grandious, elegant iphone...it looks like a Honda near a Mercedes. zero.

[CowboyDiplomacy]

More like it looks more like a Silverado vs. a Prius. Something of use vs. a fad.

[Doispe08]

Mai du-te ba in pula mea cu prastia ta de aifon. Mactard-ul pulii mele.

[cursedring]

@Doispe08 omule asta e un channel pe care se vorbeste in engleza nu in romana! cum naiba de au toti taranii cont acu pe youtube Doamne?CUM?!?

[pyrosheen]

@cristianvantu

its a phone.

[cristianvantu]

Omnia is not a touch phone it is a push phone :-) Touch the iphone first and you will see the diference.

[Crossskyssss]

How to get TouchWiz interface , i just brought Sumsong  Omnia II but don have the TouchWiz interface ple tell me how to get !? ple ...

[roundtheclockfun]

hi which do u think performs better? omnia i8000 or the omnia b7610? and on the radio, does it require the headset to act like the antenna of the radio or not? thank u

[DjBuTzU2p3u]

Please someone help me to choise among the Samsung Omnia HD i8910 and Samsung Omnia 2 i8000!Thx

[aspirin2509]

i'm getting i8000 this days,its much better than HD

[Kingmobile]

Can you tell me please about the touch calendar? You can set your phone to not exit all the programs when you press the x button? And you can set to exit immediatly all the programs?? I saw this on a shop, and I entered in messages, after that I pressed the back button or the x, and the phone exited! Please help me.

Thanks! :)

[TonkatrainHONKHONK]

Does anyone know if it is possible to put normal windows 6.5 without all the mods and shit? Thanks

[TonkatrainHONKHONK]

lol nvm, it was answered in the video

[MasterPreview]

@TonkatrainHONKHONK yeah you can get the 6.5 cd and then just reinstall it using your computer, by connecting using usb cable

[Pulzindel]

I have look at both samsung jet and omnia and I think that it's the same mobile but the omnia is a windows mobile!! Omnia is better!!

[FlamedMerkaba]

Which one is bttr this one or the JET

[jasperdj]

The only difference between the phones is:

windows mobile on the omnia 2

And the bigger screen: 3.7 inch of the omnia 2

So omnia 2 is better :P

[FlamedMerkaba]

Ok,

and which one of these 3.

Samsung Jet

Samsung Omnia 2

Samsung Omnia HD

Give me arguments for your pick :P

[rissahhoutrageous]

Great video! My 2-year contract is coming to an end and I'm thinking of getting this phone..since it seems to be the only one that doesn't need a data package!

[jeehman]

question: when u watch a picture and you rotate the phone to the left will the picture rotate with it aswell?

[YOUCANNOTDENY]

yes it has an accelerometer

[milanoazzurri]

Which windows he used in the review 6.1 or 6.5?

[new9876]

how is the battery life on this one?

[seeddx]

@new9876

manufacturer says 10 hour talk time, so we can say about 8

[0rdreSacre]

can any1 tell me pls hologram working on omnia 2 i8000? pls i really need answer =(

[TheButtkisser]

the phone spec is written 16M colour screen , but only 65K effective ???

What does it mean ???

It only support 65K ??? or 262K ?? or 16M ??

[xdeiri]

65k limited to wm

[zyclonenuz]

Ok I dunno whats up with my Omnia 2 but when ever I try to tilt/rotate the phone when I'm composing a text/sms message it wont switch to Landscape Keyboard. Basically it don't auto rotate.

[Unr3achable1tch]

you forgot about the swype text input option ;)

[ElleDolly1]

does it have normal text or just qwerty, really need to know please, aka 1abc 2def 3ghi etc for texting. thanks in advance

[justin43712]

there might be a app that you can download in the market because i downloaded a app on my android phone...and i know that if android has it then windows mobile has to have it!

[ElleDolly1]

Thank you :)

[Kingmobile]

PLease tell me this phone has sound recorder or not?? Thanks!

[justin43712]

most likely...all smart phones have one that i know of. if it doesnt already have one on the phone you can download one from the market

[Kingmobile]

Thanks, I saw it with my eyes. I have a question: When I will enter example in pictures, oe in message box, when I push the X button, the phone will exit the message inbox, or any other thing. There is a back button and I didn't saw it?? I am not an english person, so if you didn't understand me at all, I will try twice.

[owntakedroptele]

very niicley done

[CrazyGrin]

I still have a few questions

1. Could you use a stylus? (I always get annoyed at having to use my finger cuz I'm not good at it and just get plainly annoyed XD).

2. Do you think the batery was annoying fast to go?

3. And I know this is random but does it have that little hole that you can put a string into? (like sometimes they hold stylus and things). I love the stylus more than anything =o

4. Oh also, I'm planning to travel, do you think it would be good to take vid and pictures with? =)

[bulletprouf4]

@CrazyGrin

1. yes, it comes with one.

2.the battery will give you a good 6hours talking time. proly 2 or 3 days on standby.

3.yes it does.

4.yes it has a 5MP camera, so it would be great for pictures and videos.

:)

[CrazyGrin]

@bulletprouf4

thank you, you've made my day =)

[yungweez3]

good review

[arni0202]

just a suggestion I know some cameras only do macro in auto-focus but to avoid the cam from going in and out of focus due to the contrast, just put it on manual, set it and do your video.. otherwise great vid. even if I don't like the phone :)

[dhp1161]

whats with the quick brown fox thing? is that some proven thing that is a good tester for touch screen phones?

also to uploader, if you scroll with your fingernails instead of your fingers you can scroll better

[GravityBlind]

The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog is a sentence that uses every letter in the alphabet

[BrownieBunny16]

except for s

[GravityBlind]

The quick brown fox jumpS over the lazy dog. Easy fix

[stanrytan]

This phone is good because it has sooo many functions. Because it has so many functions, you will find difficulties in trying to look for a particular setting you want. What is your tick?

[ldy900402]

I just wanna point out that the size of memory is not 256mb at all. You get to choose like 16GB and 32GB but of course, the prices are different.

[junexyz2009]

whats the screen plastic or scratch proof Cristal?

[NateDaGreat519849]

most likely scratch proof, they dont use plastic screens on a capacitive touch only on resistive touch screens like the touch pro 2 and lg voyager

[stanrytan]

Samsung Omnia is using Resistive Screen which is plastic type. Pls do not use pen knife to scratch the screen.

[junexyz2009]

is this phone wm6.1 or 6.5 ? they said this phone can upgrade to 6.5 whats the differences about this 6.1 to 6.5 it looks the same

[InteligentMan]

the lag is gone with 6.5

[NateDaGreat519849]

6.5 and they add some feature like a new keyboard, adn weather apps, and touch flo is colorful, even though you dont have it on this phone lol, but go search up the HTC HD2 on youtube to see what i mean

[chltmdwp]

you mena WM 6.5.1?

[PeetHD]

Thank you for the nice review. Much you helped me with decisions. Samsung Omnia II is a very nice phone :) .

[MrPB1971]

Just press and hold the center key. It'll give you your taskmanager.

[adamthirlwell]

i got the samsung omnia lite and really wasnt keen on the touchwiz UI and put touchflo 2d on instead. much better

[legolasrocker]

why did Singapore get an advanced launch for the fone?i mean samsung's a korean company,

[981so]

Becuase singapore is just dope like that ! lol :P

[Bradleighkid2]

Does it include WIFI?

[jailbreaker321]

Yes it does!

[Slr75amg]

yes

[solomidplz]

That question is so old, and 99% of the smartphones nowadays have WiFi and all the other good stuff.

[Nagamasaki]

how can you change the wallpaper for the 2nd and 3rd screen?

[kibrorgat]

its not taking you several clicks to get to the task manager just 1 holding down of the cube key anywhere in the phone and tthat's it

[lastshadowmonkeys]

Can you make a software tour of the Samsung Omnia LITE please?

I wanna know if the touchwiz interface is exactly the same as this on the Omnia II...

[gamagnussen]

Since the only very practical thing that is missing on this phone is that you can't see the next appointment on the front screen, somebody should make an application or widget which solves that. (unless it's already been made - please inform)

[fattygetsowned]

Dose anyone know when this comes out in Canada??

[jaycc9]

It will be launched on Bell's new network before the winter olympics, so it should be here by Christmas.

[123TxT123]

When is it comin 2 any carrior!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[tamasa100]

Waht is better Omnia II 8mp or 8910 HD ?

[muffa08]

I'd prefer Omnia HD cause it has a capacitive touch screen...

[OwnerDutchie]

Omnia II isn't 8mp..

I think 9810HD is better

[yawangle90]

your brain works reeeeally fast man!

[joaharu]

sexy, me too..

all the fuckers at Gizmodo and Engadget can suck my balls. Samsung is a great fucking company. Screw Apple and the koolaid drinking zombies.

[8djm8]

anyone used backup software on this device e.g. Resco or SPB backup, if so ,does it work O.K ?

[daepark100]

wow i want ur phone is coool. samesung in korea right

[shannonelnar03]

how much is the i8000? please reply

[GatorCue]

is this for att

[ZachChen1996]

No its going to be for Verizon :)

[SexyA97]

i want 1 soooooo baddddd omg

[Lord40666]

WinMo, as an open-source OS, is open to so many modifications that the skin over any version is really a null point.

The 800mHz processor, 5.0MP camera, and AMOLED display, on the other hand, are undeniably awesome.

[pravinpatil411]

And I thought I was the only one who hates Haptic Feedback.

[zsimba]

who here choked on their own tongue at 11:08 raise up their hands

[DutchJelle]

I don't like the Omnia 2, it's just too laggy, and the phone itself is very ugly.

I have had the Samsung Touchwiz, and I have to say that the interface of it is a lot smoother than this one.

My HTC Diamond is in my opinion better than this phone, because the ported tf3d from the diamond2 works great, thanks to xda-developers . c o m.

The HTC Diamond is a year older, but I think it's a lot better than this phone.

Just my two cents

[henreque]

WHEN o WHEN is this coming to the UK? I've searched for hourssssssss but can't find any info.

[pravinpatil411]

its already available on play(dot)com

[henreque]

Yeah but it's "Coming Soon".

[pravinpatil411]

Oopsi, my bad. Dint see it properly.

[thachillest1]

@ Brandon: To change the wallpaper for each homescreen, just go to each individual screen and go to settings and display and light.

[fredbuchka]

great video! but i think the diamond 2 is better

[dihsruhk]

is amoled touch screen resistive screen? and is it better than the capacitive screen on iphone?

[RobynHode8]

Does this guy work for Microsoft?

[sumimimi0]

htc is the suckish touch phone. samsung is def. won htc
