    I am getting tired of waiting for the next Communicator.. and now I am contemplating in replacing my N9500 with a brand new Cellphone.. My choices are the IPhone 3G, the Samsung Omnia (so-called "IPhone killer") and the N96..

     

    I feel that the N96 is just an upgraded of the N95 (with better memory storage, that is).. So, scratch that..

     

    Now, it boils down to two phones, the Iphone 3G and the Omnia..

     

    I know that this is an IPhone thread, and most probably, people would vote for the IPhone, but what about this newest Samsung hand-held.. I've checked reviews and it really goes toe-to-toe with the IPhone.. It even has a stronger camera with its 5MP and its even priced less that the IPhone.. 8GB (Php36K) at 16GB (Php38K) din ang mga variants ng internal memory and also supports the 3G function..

     

    Planning to buy the Omnia over the IPhone because of its price.. But would any of you here care to "violently" react? haha.. I just want to see the POV of IPhone users on why the IPhone 3G would be a better choice over the gaya-gaya phones like this Samsung model..

     

    BTW, if ever, this would be my first Samsung Phone.. Been a Nokia user since, as I did not like my experience with SE's P800..

     

    it really comes down to personal choice; you have the last say and despite other people's IMO's, you live or die with your choice.

     

    i've tried all three brands; though they all have user-friendly interface, the iphone's UI has a more intuitive feel probably because it was first to market the touchscreen-accelerator gizmo combination which the other brands are busy catching up -samsung's omnia, being an asian brand, "improved" on the shortcomings of the iphone 3g in the areas the asian market is biased to: better camera, mms and text forwarding capable out of the box, and video calling, which i'm sure the iphone is also busy catching up on these in the coming months...

     

    get the phone that best serves your needs; omnia has what we asians want right out of the box while the iphone 3g has the bling factor to consider and its shortcomings forgiveable in the short term. and don't count nokia out yet; they're coming out with their own iphone-killer the 5800; and you can also download some business software like quickoffice to the N96 if you plan on getting that. good luck.

     

    me? i gave my iphone 3g to my girlfriend (if i make her happy, she'll make me happy hehehe) and went back to my nokia E66 to handle my business needs and the itouch to take care of my entertainment needs; i'm planning on getting the 5800 when it comes out this christmas and download quickoffice on it.

    good luck

    Nokia E66 - sleek one, reliable connectivity

     

    i have no complaints with messaging/data connectivity; but sometimes my unit hangs when i make a call after heavy texting/web browsing; sometimes even twice a day -i have to shut it down and power it up so it can make calls again -i had its operating software upgraded but after a few days, the same problem cropped up again -i'm getting frustrated with my sexy sleek E66

    Good for you man. Anyways, don't you find it expensive for an iphone?

     

    paid php2,500 for the unit under plan 3999 -don't really mind the cost since i used to consume an average of php5,000 a month on my primary business line -so currently i maintain four mobile lines: primary business line (globe plan 3999), secondary business/data line (smart plan 500), personal/data back-up line (globe plan 500), and work/staff line (sun plan 350) -thats a minimum of php5350 a month on phone bills for me -the iphone will most probably end up in the hands of my girlfriend in a week's time anyways, so if you count the unit cost vs the pleasure she will be giving me, it's no big deal really hehehe...
