MWC 09: Hands-on with the Samung OMNIA HD S60 device

Samsung has been making high end smartphones for years and is getting better and better with their S60 offerings. I had a chance to try out the Samsung i7110 when Rafe came to visit me and was extremely impressed with the hardware. Dieter had a chance to check out the newly announced Samsung OMNIA HD S60 device. This is a S60 5th Edition device with full touchscreen and captures 720p video. Dieter mentioned it shot the video and it played back immediately with no skipping and in very high quality.

Dieter also mentioned that you can hold down a button and swipe between open apps as they shuffle around like cards. I am too big of a hardware keyboard fan to buy the Samsung OMNIA HD and will go for the Nokia N97 instead.

vI think maybe for someone whose life is Always in motion, but for the rest of us the apps make up f0r some entertainment, but in no way are as useful as the internet. At least someone like me wouldn’t think so.
