Busted: Samsung Omnia HD in India doesn't have 1GHz CPU

17 August, 2009
Remember that photo last week, which suggested the Indian version of Omnia HD runs on a 1GHz CPU? Well it smelled fishy to us right from the very start so we didn't even bother write about it. The news however...

      Why the heck didn't they give the Omnia II a Cortex A8 processor too? This is blasphemy!

                Indian people just want to show-off thats why a indian musted has posted this rumor that the I8910 has a 1GHZ CPU coming in India.

                  Would be freaking hilarious if this phone had horrible battery life and still cant match the N91 DSP.

                    Samsung,DO this:, 17 Aug 2009Omnia HD runs on a 1GHz CPU prosessor!. ;)No, the OmniaHD doesn't run on 1GHz processor, it is the same processor that found in iPhone 3GS and Palm Pre, it is 600MHz that can over-clock to 1GHz, but is not 1GHz.

                        Thanks GSM Arena for the notification. :-D

                        So does it mean all we got the Omnia HD(around the world) they include that DSP 430MHz chip?

                                maybe it's a mistake but a post at http://mytechnews.info/b/2009/08/1ghz-processor-for-the-samsung-i8910-hd-for-malaysia.html clearly shows Samsung i8910hd brochure describing the processor as '1GHz graded'.. what ever that means..

                                        ahm... they can do it .htc gave us ( read Indians) 2g touch diamond and 2g touch pro earlier.... now its turn of samsung to do it.. honestly i think thats y indians have a belief in Nokia ( at least i never heared that Nokia misplaced some chip....last heared it was their N91-5 which they clearly showed that it didnt had Wifi ) guys thats seems pretty bad
