Samsung Omnia

ACW

Seen this about the internet and can find it on ebay for about 650euro sim free.
Does anyone who if O2 or any other network is planning to bring it out?

strecker

Considering that vodafone's current top 3 or 4 prepay phones are samsungs (pricewise, I mean) I'd expect that one to come soon... On the other hand: maybe it'd be too much competition for their own tocco?
O2 might pick it up as an iphone alternative?
Heck, who knows? Won't be tesco...that IS certain

Does anybody if this is being released on Meteor?

vote4pedro

I'd also love any info on whether this will be launched on Meteor, or any other. I'm considering getting a Tocco or N95 but not sure if I should wait for this to be released?

Vodafone have the Omnia in stock now but a little on the pricey side. Looks like a cool phone though.

Think it was €339 on a €70/month price plan

Not available on the website yet.

Vodafone = rip-off.

I would rather purchase it on eBay for substantially more than pay that much on contract.

bill pay out of contract, going to either move to vodafone and get the omnia, or to 3 ad get the renoir

johnk123

I seen an add in a magazine today for the omnia on O2. It look like a nice phone i have to say.

metalfest

which country?

metalfest

:eek::eek: so if i give vodafone a guaranteed 12months business they'll only charge 379e

whereas this nice person has it cheaper, and no guaranteed 600e over 12months http://cgi.ebay.ie/Samsung-Omnia-SGH-i900-Mobile-Phone-16GB_W0QQitemZ140281746606QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_MobilePhones_MobilePhones?hash=item140281746606&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72:1301|66:4|65:12|39:1|240:1318

Went into vodafone today to have a look at the omnia, was very interested until it was handed to me the bloody thing is huge:mad:, so could'nt be arsed lugging it around. Think i'll wait and see the nokia 5800.

Hi all,

Just wondering; If I order this unlocked fom China, will it work OK over here? I'm on vodafone (prepay, NOT bill) with my current phone, so I could just put my sim in and it should work. Any advice for me on this? Will I be likely to face any problems?

Cheers in advance.

None in particular, there are alot of sites that do them. Alibaba is the site I'd probably buy from if possible. Any help for me?

Thanks for that. I've only read the first page (there are 7). Do you think it's safe at all to order from it? I'd love to get the Omnia so cheap ($285 shipped) but maybe somethings not right. Too good to be true?

metalfest

to be honest i doubt it lol.......and i just got scammed outa 270e yesterday lol............

EDIT: from zzzphone.com


edit: turns out i haven't been scammed.....

Mind if I ask how you got scammed? Did you order a phone from that crowd and not get anything back?

All I know is I'm going to have to do some serious homework before I consider buying from that site.

metalfest

well like, went onto the website, googled it for a bit.......seemed ok....
went thru to some weird link........paid......
.....status.....unpaid........emailed them threatening to sue ( lol ) ......
crap......just checked , woah it says paid.....but they never charged me for shipping......
we'll see....... here's hoping.......dream phone c'mon...
i apologise for my remark, so far it has not been a scam..
