Samsung Omnia W Review

Feel the unmatched experience with Samsung Omnia W. If you want to explore life with a new meaning, then Samsung Omnia W is made just for you. Gear up for a vivid immersive experience with a 3.7 inches super AMOLED display. Connect yourself globally with 3G video calling and get wrapped up in the world of apps with Samsung Omnia W, the sleek designed device. Connect with your buddies as you never did before. How? Its quite simple, as only this Windows gadget possess a 5 megapixel camera, the user can now get linked with buddies wherever they are. If the user clicks photos in dark, the camera will somehow manage to balance the color levels perfectly. 

Get social with the latest Samsung Omnia W. The user can effortlessly arrange applications as well as status updates with Live tiles. Grab those new and fresh information on the handset. The device runs on a 1.4 GHz Scorpion processor that makes running of the apps faster. Talking about the internet access, the Samsung Omnia W runs fast while surfing. Whereas, the device has all connectivity features, a handset of its group should have like Wi-Fi, 14.4 Mbps HSDPA, Bluetooth, A-GPS, and FM Radio with RDS.

To make it clear, there is no HDMI port installed for displaying pictures and videos directly on a large screen. A huge frustration is that the mobile phone doesn't have mass storage mode. The GPS feature is present in the phone. The Samsung Omnia W has the capability of recording 720p HD videos at 30 frames per second. While the multimedia option has a music player with the help of which the user can subscribe to and download podcasts, and can form his/her own playlists.

The Samsung Omnia W may not possess a secondary microphone for active noise cancellation, still its in-call audio quality is well beyond the average. Voices sound loud and different  through the earpiece without being hazy even at the maximum volume setting. On the other hand what lies in the pipeline is that the users voice will sound loud enough. Samsung Omnia W 1500 mAh battery gives out good battery back up.

Well to sum up, after gathering information about the handset, it can be assumed that this is one affordable smartphone, above all when its price is discussed. And its overall performance is  unblemished, regardless of being a mid-range mobile phone. So guys if you all are searching out for a well-designed and balanced device, the Samsung Omnia W should be the trump card, yet below are a few choices that the customer might also want to peep at. 

Overall Review

The mid-range smartphone, Samsung Omnia W is an overall decent device. Though it does not claim to deliver the best in every aspect but it definitely delivers an overall good user experience and flawless performance. The call quality on Samsung Omnia W is pretty good despite the absence of secondary microphone for active noise cancellation. It has smooth UI functionality and the processor supports hassle free browsing, speedier scrolling through the menu and gives many more features to keep the users occupied. Then, there are dual cameras and 3G support for video calling. It is indeed admirable that all these privileges come together with this Samsung Omnia W despite the absence of a dual-core processor, much of RAM support, in expandable memory and affordable price.
