While we’re waiting for the Omnia HD to become available in the Philippines, Samsung has once again announced another upcoming Omnia smartphone. The Samsung i8000 Omnia II is the real successor to the Omnia series.
GSM Arena has a preview here but see list below for a run-down of the specs of the new Omnia II.
- 3.7-inch AMOLED touchscreen (480×800 pixels)
- HSDPA 7.2 Mbps, HSUPA 5.76 Mbps
- 800 MHz CPU
- 8GB or 16GB storage memory
- microSD card slot (up to 32GB)
- Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional with custom TouchWiz 2.0 UI
- 5 MP autofocus camera with dual LED flash (video at 720×480 @ 30fps)
- WiFi 802.11 b/g
- Bluetooth with A2DP
- GPS receiver with A-GPS
That’s a very large screen, large storage capacity (48GB total) and a high-capacity battery (1500 mAh) in one device. One thing that could be a bit disappointing is that it will come with Windows Mobile 6.1 instead of the newer 6.5 version.
magkanu ba ung omnia 2 i900?
maganda yan ganda ng graphics ibang iba talaga maganda ang porma at manipis lang

i have an Omnia Lite and it freezes too!! it hangs and it is really a hassle to use. brought it to the Samsung Service Center at SM Mall of Asia and Robinson’s Place (where I bought the phone) to have it checked or even replaced because of its defect but they kept on blaming the SIM card. they said that apparently, Samsung phones are “designed” for 64k SIM cards and since I’m using a 128k postpaid SIM card, it will cause the phone to hang, the battery will be drained faster, it will cause the phone to heat up faster and it will have intermittent network signal. and till now, after a month, my phone is still with them since they are still “checking” what the defects are. Samsung phones are just as equally poor in performance as the quality of service itself!!
I got this phone only last month. very nice phone. but the problem no asean language available for this phone considering samsung is originated in korea. also if u setup the regional settings be specific nagkakaroon ng problema sa time minsan nala-late.
Magkano ba ito master yuga?
Hi Yuga,
can you make a review? please compare samsung omnia ii and the i890 omina Hd, which is a better buy?
got bnew 8gb omnia II units selling for 31k.. message me for more info 0918-9123980
dual sim ba ito?
Na-release na po ba ito sa Pinas?
kala ko ngayong august ang release nito…
magkano kaya ito?
aabot ba ito ng 30k? sana hindi
this is really hard. i’ve been lusting over omnia hd for quite sometime now and was about to buy one then this thing flashed out of the blue. i’ll wait till this new breed of omnia hits the market before buying a new phone. dAMI omnia ng samsung, there’s also what they call omnia pro and omnia lite. *dizzy*
Ang ganda!! ng samsung 8000 Omnia II ang laki ng screen…
ang mura ng units nila.. di ko lang alam kung original ba..

http://omnia.samsungmobile.com/omnia2/

although, not fully functional :)
enjoy :)
nice…!
kung mid-august ang release date d2
i would prefer this as my bday gift 2 myself,
ahahah, im planning 2 hav an omnia i900
pero nung nkita q 2 sa gsmarena…heheh
naka2lito n… :D
this fone rules :)
lahat namn ng WinMO phones, pwedeng i upgrade.
5MP is enough, masydo ng malaki ang 8MP kakainin lang yung memory nyo, hirap pa magsend via bluetooth. LOL
Main selling point of Omnia 2 is:
800Mhz Processor, Uber Sensitive Screen (even better than omniaHD’s), New Touchwiz 2 interface.
I email samsung philippines, sabi nila MID august daw magkakaron dito, around 30k yung 8gb while 33k yung 16gb..
malapit lapit narin! hehe
still 5MP, only larger screen
Its ok even if it is still 6.1, even the old omnia i900 can be upgraded to 6.5.
The problem will be the software… will they run in Omnia 2? It has a larger screen now…
for free omnia 1 software visit:

and I prefer Omnia HD… why release omnia 2???
5 MB is a little disadvantage sa model na to but the cube is really tempting to take home haha
Wow..it looks really great. How much would it be?

Any word on when the OmniaPro (AMOLED screen with slide out keyboard) will be available here in Manila?
btw, omnia ba, pwede din upgrade win mo?
grabe i am also waiting for this.. kaso i really need a new one asap.. kaya baka omnia na lang bagsak ko.. tagal pa ata ng omniaHD at omnia2 eh.. hay! i believe i read it also na pwede i-upgrade ang 6.1 to 6.5 as soon as you buy it..
If samsung will price the omnia i800 right
im pretty sure that this model will be a tough competition
to the 3Gs.

too bad they didn’t retain at least the 8MP camera :( or at least upgraded it to 12MP to match SE Idou.
Hay… I’m confused then.
asian phones are taking it to next level – even surpassing european phones like nokia; with the right price these ones gonna sell like hotcakes! :D
id say ill still wait for the omnia hd – its far way better.=)
danda ng phone na to :D
if this have any glitches, its back to the old one
ganda ah.. at may bagong look, may “cube” na cla.. LOL
I actually am waiting for this phone to come out and I’m very very eager!!!! Hope you get news when it will be released here!
wow that is really a large screen! wonder how it will fare with iPhone 3Gs.
my problem with this phone is that i dont find that cube/box design near the bottom appealing.no worries with the wm6.1 since it can be upraged to 6.5 once it comes out.
if only samsung made the omnia hd with windows mobile instead of symbian, i think that would be a better phone than the omnia II
nice looking phone wonder how much will it cost and is it available already in Manila
master yuga, may special discount ka ba sa mga cellphones/laptops? im planning to buy a new cellphone/laptop eh.
thank you.
