Samsung GT-i8350 could be "Omnia W"
We first heard about the Samsung GT-i8350 in July, when it was speculated to be a follow up to the Omnia 7. Yesterday, we saw that it got its Bluetooth certification, which means it's close to being released. Word is now that the GT-i8350 will be re-branded as the Omnia W and that it will hit shelves in October.
The Mango-equipped refresh of the Omnia 7 will also sport the following:
- 1GHz processor
- 512MB of RAM
- 5MP camera
- 3.7-inch WVGA screen
- GPS
- Bluetooth (as we already knew)
Nothing to get excited about here, but hey, it will be one more option out there come Fall.

futurix says:
Where did you see that there is no S-AMOLED+??
selfcreation says:
3.7-inch WVGA screenit should of been : 3.7 S-Amoled Plus screen.
futurix says:
WVGA is resolution, not a display technology.
selfcreation says:
its cause samsung NEVER uses the term WVGA , they are so proud of the AMOLED ,, if you look up phone specs you always see AMOLED , and not the other stuff. ah well w/e still hope i guess .. but still 3.7 ,, meh
Sogeman says:
So just the bare minimum...
Omega Ra says:
well if those are the specs, maybe some one at XDA can hack it and make it work on my old Omnia 2 lol just for fun.
drankurn says:
the specs don't make any sense, why would they release the same specs as another phone ?? is it anything different from the original omnia 7
futurix says:
Smaller screen.That's probably a refresh of a budget device.
drankurn says:
don't know about that, Being 1 yr old, i think they can easily sell the omnia 7 for free so i don't think just using a smaller screen would make it any cheaper at this stage?my point is that most likely the spec info. is not right.
nizzon says:
I wonder if it will have the same bunch of bugs as the Omnia7 aswell. Pfff.
devGOD says:
Samsung phones have the worst firmware, i wouldn't touch a samsung phone you'll be waiting for updates months after they were released
