Also, have a look at this mobile.. if you are still looking for.. SAMSUNG B7610 OMNIA PRO.

All windows mobile comes with 65K Display, as the OS supports only for that. Though the display has been designed for 16M colours.

thx for reply. No I didn't buy any mobile yet.
I m still confuse betwen JET and OMNIA2. Both r almost similar except jet is non OS fone n OMNIA2 having 65k screen. Till now I have used a very simple mobile. So i dont know wat can be done with OS. If OS is for instaling applications, then wat type of apps? I only need application like document viewer.
But I m more inclined towards omnia2 due to OS but then again 65k screen hold me back. Does it affect photo, video image clearity? If 65k screen n 16m screen mobiles are put side by side, can we identify differance by naked eyes.
I think i should wait till JAN before buying mobile.

corrected this post now as I was looking at Omnia's specs earlier.


jet's display has AMOLED, 16M color and 480 x 800 pixels packed into 3.1" display.

omina II has 65k color AMOLED, 480 x 800 3.7" display.

To the naked eye, you won't find much difference and that 3.7" display should be gorgeous.

It's better to go for a 65k display that has smartphone OS than to go for a 16M display that comes with some fancy java UI.

My vote goes to Omnia II

@Choku....


Dont hold back from Omnia 2, for the reason u think!

Go for Omnia 2.. You will surely like the Omnia2 display better than Jet Display bcoz of its larger size.

I am thinking, just bcoz of budget. The price difference is arnd 5.5K.. Is Win Mobile OS, Display Size difference, worth for 5.5k???

Anyway both these Phones are best value for money, i think!

Re: Suggest a suitable smartphone

Hey guys

I hv dropped the thought of getting 5800XM and now m very keen for WinMO

because:

My main focus on mobile is a true PDA & productive device and not entertainment.
I checked 5800 of my frend. The phone gets slow or sometimes hangs while opening PDF of large size.. and my main purpose is to read ebooks , PDFs , PPTs, docs etc.
I don't care for camera.. as m gonna hav a digicam soon 4 dat purpose..
I don't like to play songs on speaker of phone rather i prefer headsets.

So all these points suggest me a Windows Mobile device. (HTC or Samsung or Asus) . Can any1 pls suggest me a good model with Wifi around 15K?

1 Question for Windows Mobile users: Does d phone gets slow while reading PDFs? (with 5800 it's too slow to scroll even ) ? Pls provide me an unbiased ans , thanks:-?:razz:

>> "my main purpose is to read ebooks , PDFs , PPTs, docs etc."

if the file is too large , then it will stutter in every smartphone. yeah , stuttering is more severe in 5800 than other phones . but remember PDFs are very RAM intensive. but if you have text only pdfs then all phones i've tried works ok.

BTW , avoid cheaper winmo like plague . Winmo is unbearable is slow hardware .

Hello Friends,

I have almost decided 2 go for omnia2 wil b geting it within few days but have some doubts to clear.

I have checked online on rediff shopping that this mobile wil cost me around 22.5k while local dealer in my city is asking for 24k.
SO is it reliable to go for online shopping? wil i get genuin product? wat abt warranty? if somthin goes wrong, wil local samsung dealer wil repair or replace the phone within waranty?

THX in advance.

Hey choku,

It seems to be a nice offer..

In my town also, every showroom quote it ~ 24K and + VAT.. If i bargain, i think they will give some 5% cash back!

22.5K.. I am too looking at it.. and thinking of placing order.. but may wait 4 pongal offer before placing order.. If ezone gets stock of Omnia 2, then i will go here.. (for its 10% cash back :) )

I think, If v get the mobile pack w/o seal broken.. then v can go rediff too...

Anyone have any experience regarding online shopping can share their view.

I see that rediff seller has only 75% positive rating.. bad :(

And rediff sells Omnia Pro B7610 at 24K whereas with local dealer, its just 22K.. and omnia 2 at 22.5K in rediff and with local dealer 24K is more contradicting!! :(


I think Omnia 2 will come down to 22K arnd...
Dont know, wen will be Google nexus launch in India!

Pongal festival here is 14th Jan!!
