11 May 2009
The world's first 720p HD video recording on a mobile phone was top of our list of trend-setting features revealed at this year's MWC in Barcelona. But even if you take HD from the Samsung i8910 Omnia HD you will still...

    I can not believe how you can record HD video and AMR audio, is not serious. Videos lowered to less than 24fps, is that no processor? 600mhz!

        Update from GSMArena Team ( page 4 )

        Update: In fact the new Samsung i8910 Omnia HD unit has 256 MB of RAM. It was only the first unit we tested that come with 128MB, which is probably the cause for this misprint. Please accept our apologies for the careless mistake.

        thank you gsmarena and samsung ,

          Photos are amazing, videos are amazing but the sound from videos makes me think of the most scary triller I ever watched as something beautiful - sound's HORRIBLE!!!!!!
          But the pictures look great. For a phone :P
          Oh, wait, for the same amount of money I can buy a DSLR... with lens...

              Anonymous, 11 May 2009So 128mb or 256mb, is that every site they say different things They already fixed it - it's 256MB. I guess someone at the Arena had a beer too many yesterday :)

                        Rima , 12 May 2009i dont see any word about RAM in your link ! Wash your eyes and check again.

                        I hope it's DDR SDRAM

                            600Mhz, Dual CPU, 256MB RAM.

                            I'm buying it, unless SE IDOU turns out to be better and gets released faster, which I seriously doubt.

                              All specs so far point to 600 mhz with 256 mb ram. Here's the official ones:

                              http://innovator.samsungmobile.com/prd/sym/productDetl.view.do?modelCode=DR0827-121&searchType=0&menuName=Symbian&platformId=2&platform=1&deviceType=¤tActionURL=http%3A%2F%2Finnovator.samsungmobile.com%3A80%2Fprd%2Fsym%2Fproduct.list.do%3FsearchType%3D0%26platformId%3D2%26platform%3D1%26menuName%3DSymbian

                              Nothice theyre written in giga bits; and 8 bits =1 byte ... do the math or find a conversion calculator and see that the rough ammount is ~250 MB RAM.

                              As you know N97 only has 128 mb with 60-40 free on boot and it's barely enough for web browsing. Gsm arena is just paid to make this little mistake to save some of N97's sales.

                                  hey guys, nice review again!
                                  what i'd really like to see is a screenshot of the menu where FM TRANSMITTER icon is included, heard so many different opinions about that fact 'til now! i think thats the last thing that makes nokia n97 more attractive for me... would be great if you can bring light to the dark so i can preorder my i8910 ;)
