Samsung Omnia II i8000 Software Tour | Pocketnow

[@Rezxer]

Very, very good video. I always thought that a huge issue with most cell phone reviews is that people seem too much time looking at the phone's design and neglect how the interface works. This software/interface tour you've been doing was extremely informative and improved my opinion of the i8000 enormously. I had not realized the i8000's TouchWiz was so customizable and so aesthetically pleasing. I'm looking forward to your Samsung Omnia B7610 review!

[@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!

[@JasonJJasonJ]

just bought one of these and waiting for arrival. thanks for the tour. was an impressive UI. was expecting a Win mobile drab UI, but wow.

[@077cicok]

[@RDjanko]

very good video... is the Omnia in this video with Windows Mobile 6.1 or 6.5??

[@RAMPAGEwasKIA]

excellent review!!

[@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? =)

[@harshreality86]

Is this phone good? I have heard rather many comments that its super laggy ): im still thinking if i should buy it !

[@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. :)

[@thachillest1]

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

[@Farazkhurshid]

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

[@5123778899]

awesome video and awesom phone :)

[@ManiacMonkboon]

Not a rant but it appears that many things that are standard on most phones are being added to newer phones such as the task manager or on the iPhone, finally the ability to do video, copy & paste. What are we really getting on the newer phones if the features are already on existing phones? Please respond, Monk....

[@ostesvin]

I would go with the Omnia II fast processor, winmo and it looks cool. The HD feels pretty large has an older slower processor and the "old" symbian

[@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...

[@thelostworld]

thanks. it's a good review :)

[@bambinoesu]

good review

[@Matanumi]

one thing this phone can do that newer phones today cannot? you can turn this off completely ... and to have it auto turn on from alarm function. I haven't found a phone that can do that

[@Leijona321]

You can? Never knew you can do that even though i used it for couple years.

[@ovios]

@pocketnowvideo dude you dont have to use the task manager all the time! Just go settings>>general settings>>button end there choose to end programms using only the X button like every normal wm devise!

[@henreque]

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

[@didecrul]

Woot, awsome vid and phone

[@kyywii]

does the gsm unlocked have swype or just the verizon version?

[@henryjones6538]

Wow, this video was uploaded before the first ipad. Wow.

[@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.

[@firasar]

Whoa it has 8GB internal.. Cool!

[@goholden12345]

very helpful!! u wouldnt happen to no how to upload games themes ect

[@Unr3achable1tch]

you forgot about the swype text input option ;)

[@mrloveahmed]

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

[@kyywii]

does the european version come with swype?

[@svanidis]

hi there, one question from me on settings /lock screen why dont i get "edit lock screen" or "display owner info" ?

[@shreddedreams]

YOU'RE MISTAKEN. In settings there is an option to make the x button on tasks actually force close the task in question. Regards.

[@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

[@lightness1990]

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

[@Nidaie]

I'm In Lovee. :0

[@Vecun]

(hence to the stupid youtube-response-system i cant read if anyone has answered your question in the last month so i am gonna do it (again?) ^^) the omnia 2 is a phone. a smartphone actually. that means you can call people with it, but it is also usable for various other things.the texting interface is really good on the omnia 2. (in my opinion its even better than on the usual mobile phones, since the buttons are up to 4 times as big) an on screen touch-keyboard appears if you have to write.

[@PravinPatil41]

its already available on play(dot)com

[@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 ...

[@junexyz2009]

whats the screen plastic or scratch proof Cristal?

[@SexyA97]

i want 1 soooooo baddddd omg

[@YTStyla]

Is the phone running Windows Mobile 6.5?

[@scvs2]

Ooh looks like you know Jon Rettinger hehe...

[@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

[@PhoenixWill]

can u put ur own wallpaper on the screen like if i want like a anime character on it?

[@chltmdwp]

you mena WM 6.5.1?

[@XyZ-1991]

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

[@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

[@ixix4472]

Anyone here 2020?

[@Poeticbladezero]

HELP!! Does anyone know if you buy this phone unlocked would it also have that swype? Sorry if it's a noob question but I just assumed that swype text thing is only for verizon. Thanks a lot if anyone could give me some info.

[@legolasrocker]

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

[@CrazyGrin]

@bulletprouf4 thank you, you've made my day =)

[@PR0UDCANADIAN87]

does this phone have grouped text messages?

[@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.

[@telaeddy77]

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

[@seeddx]

@new9876 manufacturer says 10 hour talk time, so we can say about 8

[@Jonas104]

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

[@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

[@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?

Una vergüenza samsung haya sacado este teléfono que se notaba muy poco terminado para salir a la venta. Lentitud en exceso

[@KabbishComics]

... are you joking

[@runadumb]

okay now I get while its menu's are so black and odd looking. I still thinks it looks like it was designed with a child and their crayons though. Also seemed pretty nippy in this video. I just cant see me jumping to this phone, yet.

[@MsMRkv]

Lol

[@RobynHode8]

LOL

[@Skullworld]

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