Samsung Omnia HD rumored to run Windows Mobile

In a surprising (possible) turn of events, the Samsung Omnia HD that we thought was a Symbian S60-exclusive smartphone may actually play nice with Windows Mobile. During a dealer conference in Amsterdam, Samsung showed off their upcoming handsets in a Powerpoint slide. Samsung’s 2009 product lineup will apparently include a Windows Mobile 6.5-powered Samsung Omnia HD.

If true, we’ll likely see the WinMo variant of the Samsung Omnia HD featuring much the same feature-set as its Symbian-powered sibling. Release dates and prices aren’t mentioned, but you can bank on seeing the Windows Mobile Samsung Omnia HD launching with an 8-megapixel camera and full 720p HD video recording at 24fps!

    samsung can keep their windows mobile omnia and omnia hd… this phone will see much better performance and less problems with symbian os… sorry, but I’ve about had it with windoze mobile and it’s stability problems. sorry but a reset every other day is just not stable.

    Yes i agree with the comments below as my windows mobile keeps freezing and need to reboot which is time consuming and the internet is no good either as the screen is too small need a bigger screen for internet access that is what i think samsung.

  3. Luka says:

    Windows mobile is better than Symbian OS. And by the way, you do not need to reset the device every day; if you do, then you just do not know how to use your win mo. I have one and I maybe have to reset it once a week.
