The god of mobile phone reviewers, Mobile-review.com has also given the Samsung Omnia 2 a good going over, and they are even more positive about the device than GSMArena has been.

Eldar says

Communicator Omnia II, also known as Samsung I8000 – a device in which all the positive features of i900 were carefully maintained and improved, and all the minuses removed. Widgets and corporate interface of the i900 is much improved. The device has a larger screen diagonal than the original Omnia, and while that device was low resolution, the I8000 has WVGA. Proprietary connector for all the accessories were replaced at a convenient link to the universal 3.5 mm headphones and microUSB for the rest. Productive platform from Marvell changed to your own design, perhaps not as fast, but who are not Samsung know how to exploit the potential of the platform from Samsung …

On the screen he says:

The Samsung Omnia II uses AMOLED screen with a diagonal of 3.7 "and resolution of 480×800 pixels. The display responds perfectly to your finger presses and stylus, with no difference between the pressing force or not, you can use the stylus or your finger to control (the device).  At maximum vertical and horizontal viewing angle the picture remains bright and vibrant.

He concludes:

If by September (the start date I8000 sales) some other  incredible secret devices for Windows Mobile is not be announced , Samsung Omnia II Communicator becomes the most powerful on the market. Bearing in mind the interesting package for the different versions of the first Omnia and continuously improving value (through updates) you can say that the Samsung Omnia II  will be one of the most important events for the Windows Mobile segment.
