As the latest rumor has it Samsung’s upcoming Windows Phone 8-based smartphones will be the I8370 codenamed Macro and the I8750 codenamed Odyssey. We already knew the code names from a previous leak.

The Samsung I8370 will be the cheaper device, sporting a 4.0-inch Super AMOLED WVGA screen, a dual-core 1.5GHz Krait processor, a 5 MP rear and a 1.9MP front cameras. The 8GB internal storage will be expandable via a microSD slot.

The Samsung I8570 specs sheet is basically identical to the US Galaxy S III, featuring the same 4.8-inch Super AMOLED HD screen and a 1.5GHz dual-core Krait. An 8MP rear and a 1.9MP front cameras will cater for your photography needs and there will be two options for the internal storage - 16 or 32 GB. Further expansion will be possibel thanks to the microSD slot.

Both Omnia phones should be released in Q4 this year with the I8370 price being somewhere between €350 and €450 while the I8570 should go for something between €500 and €600.

I know this site is littered with tons of Samsung fanboys but geez... Samsung controls the price. If you think the difference is a rip off blame Samsung, not Microsoft.

If I read the news right and I know I have, differences between these two models are only screen size and megapixels in camera and difference is 150 EUR. Problem is that with this price you can get an Android phone with more apps and more functions...
