Prices?
How can we be able to decide if we would reserve if there is still no SRP? I think it is ridiculous to reserve without it. C’mon samsung.
@petken – prices aren’t final until a few weeks before they are released. this is mostly due to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates.
I thought omnia 2 will be release at the same time as omnia hd or i9810
Winm0!? I w0uld prefer 0mniaHD.
iba pa ba ang Omnia II sa Omnia HD?
ok lang siguro magpareserve na. wala naman reservation fee eh. kung mejo pricey eh pwede naman ipa-cancel ang reservation.
does omnia II capture video in 16:9 format like the 5800 and N97? does skyfire work with it?
i thought the qwerty phone looked like a blackberry device.
I like AMOLED screen ~ thumbs up!!!
Thanks for the heads up! I’ve been waiting for the Omnia to come!
will this be available for everyone from august 17 or just to those who had made reservation?
OMG.. I just placed a reservation! I’ve been waiting for Omnia II to come out!
show up the price please!
just made a reservation kahit I cannot afford… Heheh I am taking chance na i-email nila yung price. Yuga any price predictions?
Whoa! cool phone! How much would it probably cost?

hi,the Omnia 2 (GT-i8000) like Omnia 1 (SGH-i900)will run with Windows Mobile 6.1, but can be upgraded to WinMobile 6.5 maybe later this year.
Omnia HD’s official name is GT-I8910HD running on Symbian S60 5.0, they want to keep the OMNIA name of Samsung handphones running on WM.
…there’s also an OMNIA PRO soon to be released.
I just made a reservation for the samsung omnia 2. Well I’m guessing that it would cost lower than omnia hd hopefully 30K pesos or even lower.
Is it true na 65K lang yung colors ng Omnia II dahil sa Windows Mobile Limit? Nakita ko kc sa mga forums na 16million colors and display niya pero dahil may limit ang windows mobile useless daw.
the one w/ the hexagonal button in the middle is the samsung jet/Samsung Omina II i8000.i saw one at robinson’s pioneer..in memo express if im not mistaken.the selling price was 22k.
samsung jet is like a cheaper version of omnia 2… but have limited apps… I also saw the samsung jet all over cyberzone sm manila for 20K pesos…
magkaiba ang jet sa omnia2..
anyway, I emailed them last 2 weeks, sabi around 30k daw yung 8gb. I really dont know, magulo ang Samsung Philippines eh!!
nagtanong din ako dati sa OmniaHD kung kailan lalabas sabi June daw! eh hanggang ngayon wala pa.. nanghuhula lang ata yung mga YUN! hahaha
for info: OmniaHD is different from omnia2!
OmniaHD is Symbian (like nokias) and Omnia2 is Windows Mobile..
Anyway, ayaw ko na sa Samsung!
I currently waiting for HTC HERO! ang tagal ilabas! wah!
0mnia, 0mnia 2, 0mniaHD, 0mnia Lite, 0mnia pr0 B7610, 0mnia pr0 B 7320…
Very c0nfusing!
Nice!! Like the Samsung Omnia Pro B7320!!

The Samsung 7320 is available right 8/16/2009 now in Bangkok for approx US $350 dollars. The phone I am interested in is the Samsung 7610 which looks slide the Omni II but has a full slide out QWERTY keyboard.
7610 due out the last quarter of 2009.

It sounds a bit ridiculous, but let me explain. For over two years now I have been using my Nokia E61i a my cellular phone. Other than being a phone, its most important feature to me was the calendar and to-do list. Nokia PCSuite software allows me to do a simple back-up of my calendar entries and contacts, synchronize my calendar entries and contacts with Nokia’s own calendar and contacts software or Windows Vista Calendar and Contacts. Basically it gave me three different ways of backing up the date on my Nokia E61i to my laptop.
Nokia PCSuite also allows you to sync your mobile phone data with Microsoft Outlook, but having migrated to OpenOffice.org for my word processing and spreadsheet needs, I do not have a copy of MS Office or MS Outlook on my computer.
When I got a replacement phone for my Nokia E61i, I purchased a Samsung B7320 Omnia Pro which is a Windows Mobile 6.1 based smart phone. I was expecting it to be able to sync with Windows Vista Calendar and Contacts since it was advertised as having:
Windows Mobile 6.1
– Windows Mobile 6.1 is a business tailored software that offers a familiar OS on the mobile
– seamless compatibility from mobile to PC
Unfortunately, the included software for syncing, Windows Mobile Device Software needs to have MS Outlook installed to work. I tried Samsung’s own proprietary Samsung New PC Studio, but unfortunately, the Samsung Utility is also dependent on MS Outlook.
Now, after a week of use, I can say I love my Samsung B7320. The only glitch is the failure to include a free copy of MS Outlook in the package. My old HTC Smart Amazing Phone from 6 or so years ago have a copy bundled with it.
For now I have a sixty-day demo of MS Outlook (which after registration gave me 100 days… cool). I hope Samsung can may its own software work independently of MS Outlook before my demo runs out. Having to get a copy of MS Office with MS Outlook will pretty much make the cost of this phone prohibitive.
Without a bundled copy of MS Outlook, the Samsung B7320 is not Windows compatible, but rather MS Office Compatible in my opinion.
