Nokia Lumia 800 review: New beginnings
Sony Ericsson Xperia arc S review: S as in SophomoreHTC Touch Diamond vs. Samsung i900 Omnia: Head-to-Head
It’s PocketPC playoffs and HTC are giving Samsung a match at the GSM Arena. With two of the stars of the season arriving in our office all at once, we thought it’s a heck of an opportunity for some Diamond-Omnia-Diamond-Omnia-Diamond-Omnia game-set-match. We got two aces up to the challenge, so sit back and stretch out. Ah well, get that six-pack too and join us for the kick-off...

> In reply to Johan Lont @ 2009-05-20 19:53 from MFnj - click to readHi - regarding your support of the shutter sound. I have to disagree. Majority of the users dont have bad intention. But at the same time I dont want to be the center of attraction with a screetch sound each time im taking a picture. I have avoided phones with this major drawback. What about videos? what if someone starts the video recording at some other place and continues with it to the gym or wash room? there is no end to such possibilities. and what about mini cameras that are barely visible.

hey guys according to me diamond wins because of the following reasons
the interface(tf3d) is really great,omnia is far away from diamond in case of interface.
stylus.the most important thing for a touch phone.omnia definitely misses it
size..omnia is bit bulky.
camara..ofcourse omnia has 5mp but 3.2 mp is enough for a phone.remember 5 mp is way away from 10mp digital camara and not much difference between 3.2 and 5
storage...
4 gb is more than enough for a normal user
above all me must cosider the price,,,,
diamond is much lesser than omnia and offers greater performance.it has the value for money,and it is more stylish.
omnia explores the weakness of the windows os but diamond hides it with its interactive user interface.
sooo
diamond...7\10
omnia.....6.5\10

The article mentions the shutter sound of the Samsung Omnia's camera function and says "which unfortunately cannot be turned off". I believe this is (proposed to be) mandatory in some jurisdictions to prevent the use of camera phones to secretly take photos without permission of people in situations where they expect privacy. For example in fitness centers, locker rooms, and dressing rooms. The shutter sound makes it harder to take someone's picture without knowing. There have been a lot of concerns about this type of abuse.

the omnia just seams better. the htc i agree looks more styleish but the omnia wins this race. It has everything going for it and is infact, i believe much MUCH better than the iphone which i think is a terrible phone, it has too many flaws.
anyway the omnia wins this race. but the htc is also very nice

oh boy oh boy.... it's just a phone for the GOD SAKE!
the main use for a phone is to communicating LOL... if you need great picture buy real camera, if u need good sound buy discman or Ipod, if you need good video buy video player,,,
People, it's up to you (and your cash LOL) whether you choose OMNIA or HTC, I hope those comments won't make you confuse ... EVERY TYPES, EVERY PRODUCTS have their weakness .. sorry for bad english

I can only be surprised with this review...
I know both are great devices.
But take a serious look at some of HTC DIAMOND top advantages:
8 of 13 (lowest in the review):
* Nicer design
* More compact body
* Lighter weight
* Active magnetic stylus (Omnia has no stylus slot)
* Better sunlight legibility (by a small margin)
* Comes with the amusing Teeter game (uses the accelerometer)
* Has pre-installed YouTube client and MP3 Trimmer application for ringtones
* Better video playback performance
Do you agree these points makes HTC DIAMOND a better choice for you?
I would choose OMNIA, that have better PRO's.

To answer all the opinions, and also the iPhones' poor features, Samsung made the Omnia. Experts and critics call it, the greatest mobile phone today. The only competitors hailed to level it are the HTC Max 4D and Nokia N97, nonetheless.

For those saying that if you want a PDA phone, the Touch Diamond is the better option. Can you please explain why that is? Thanks.
