Samsung i740 Windows Mobile announced but no 3G

As a phone running on Windows Mobile 6.1 Pro OS, it is important to know that i740 can rely on a powerful 624 MHz processor. Fortunately, there’s at least a built-in GPS receiver.

Free HTC Diamond… and a free gift

htc_diamond_ps3 HTC Diamond is free on Orange in the UK. Some probably think that’s rather mad, some would say you are mad to pay for it. Whatever way you look at it, free is a great price. Tracy and Matt take a look at it. And if you look here you can even get a free PS3… barmy!

HTC Touch Diamond, HTC Touch Pro, Samsung i900 Omnia & Sony Ericsson X1 camera comparison

htc_touch_diamond_no_flash_small It’s a  tough choice, which phone you would go for? In my circle I know a person piping for each. One of the lesser features is the camera. Windows Mobile devices have always had less than stellar cameras.

Of them all, which one excels? The Unwired investigates.

HTC Touch Diamond vs. Samsung i900 Omnia

image The guys over at GSM Arena have managed to get hold of a pre-release Samsung Omnia. They have done a detailed head to head against the HTC Diamond with loads of great pictures and a fantastic write up. The Samsung i900 Omnia is still a beta version, while the HTC Touch Diamond is a retail unit. However, dozens of bugs are being reported for the Diamond recently, so it isn’t actually as stable as it should be. In fact, HTC are struggling to polish the Diamond performance, which – even though utterly impressive – is rather unfinished at its launch. Looks like HTC made haste to beat the iPhone 3G announcement.
