Review Summary

The Omnia is a good alternative to the HTC Touch Diamond with a competitive price and a truckload of features, though Samsung does need to work on the interface to improve its consistency and usefulness.

The Diamond brings much innovation to the Windows Mobile platform and is a great handheld for both business and entertainment.

Though not perfect, the i780 is an excellent choice for those who want the most features in a sub-S$1,000 PDA-phone.

If the lack of Wi-Fi is not a big issue for you, the Touch Dual, with its great design and improved UI, is an excellent choice for both newcomers and experienced Windows Mobile users.

With more color choices and much better performance due to the increased RAM, the enhanced Touch is what the original should have been to begin with.
