out of 10View score
The bad: Some apps may not work properly; finger scrolling not consistently implemented; use of microSD slot requires battery removal; no stylus slot.
The bottom line: 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.

Pros: Good graphic and user friendly. Camera works perfectly.
Cons: Touch screen need to impeove. Touchpad doesn't work that good.
Opinion:
Overall it's a perfect windows platform phone with camera that works perfectly good. Don't have to carry any extra camera or mp3/mp4 player. Touch player need sound management such as equaliser to improve listening thru headphone. Need improvement on the touch screen/touchpad. Lastly it's a excellent phone.
A few kinks but otherwise a very good phone

Opinion:
I have been using smartphones for 9 years employing both Symbian and WM OS.
First and foremost, you should have already reconciled with the fact that it has no stylus slot , no 3.5mm jack and no hot swap before purchasing this phone.
Three things that you will appreciate with the Samsung Omnia not well implemented in other phones:
