Samsung’s Omnia range of phones have become a synonym for quality as the lineage involves a number of phones that come loaded with pleasing features. The latest introduction/addition- Samsung Omnia Pro B7320 also seeks to drive forward that repute created by its predecessors.
However, if we dig down deep, the latest entry might actually blow the reputation. The reasons are one many and we begin with a disappointing 3MP camera. It is saddening for the fact that the previous Omnia members have had 5MP and 8MP cameras. Add to that the lack of flash light and you realize that it is a bit of a downturn.
There is a hopelessly small screen to support GPS navigation and all this is the consequence of a QWERTY keyboard which gives the phone a ‘BlackBerry’ tinge.
The Windows smartphone gets HSDPA connectivity but even there, it it gets pathetic d-load speeds of upto 3.6Mbps. You will even find it wanting for the lack of a 3.5mm audio jack.
The only impressive point is the ability of the phone to offer hot contacts, most used applications, photo gallery and the music player on the menu.
I would say, you better not opt for this quad-band GSM phone which is slated to hit the market next month. [via]
