HTC Diamond Smartphone VS Samsung Omnia Smartphone

The HTC Touch Diamond and Samsung i900 Omnia are two devices that go head to head with the iPhone 3G in terms of features and specification and are expected to give a tough competition to the successor of Apple's trend setting device.

GSM Arena has recently posted a detailed review comparing the HTC Touch Diamond and Samsung i900 Omnia. I personally think that it will be unfair to say which device wins and which loses as both devices have their own strengths and weaknesses. I would also have to say that choosing one device over the other is sheer matter of personal preference and judgement. Posted by: Umair Khalid      Read more     Source

Samsung F480: A Dream Phone

Ignorance is bliss. This is true. A couple of weeks ago I received the Samsung F480 to review and now I must confess that I can’t look at a phone in the same way again. Launched this month, the F480 or the Tocca as its also known is the latest addition to the Samsung family and in short I loved it! It''s everything I want in a phone:

1. The menu is so simple to use its practically childproof and although the touch screen is admittedly fiddly at first, it didn''t take long for me to get used to it.

The Camera That's Also A Phone

Wow, cell phones with a digital camera feature are still relatively new, and now we have what can only be described as a digital camera with telephone features.

Alexander Graham Bell could never have envisioned this device that replaces a bag full of gizmos and is available at a reasonable price.

Oh, did I mention that this camera/phone is also a GPS device?

With the Sony Ericsson Cybershot C905 digital camera cell phone you can get directions to your destination, listen to the stereo FM radio along the way, take pictures and videos when you get there, and then call your friends and email them the pictures and videos.

By the way the image sensor is 8.1 mega pixels and it has a true Xenon tube flash.

Here's all the details and specs of the Sony Ericsson Cybershot C905 camera phone.

Take a camera, or now, a high quality cell phone with you whenever possible, and look around, you'll find a picture somewhere.
