Samsung B7620 Giorgio Armani: The New Omnia II?

The Omnia II was definitely one of the best models released by Samsung in 2009. Once we found out what it meant (Omnia actually translates to ‘everything’ in Latin), we realized how aptly named this impressive device was. It definitely had all the makings of a great Smartphone, and perhaps even more. Samsung definitely recognized this success and it seems like they intend to build on it with the new Samsung B7620 Giorgio Armani.

Although it is obvious that the talking point of the new device is the brand name it is associated with, it still happens to be an excellent mobile phone – perhaps even comparable to the Omnia II. So, does the new B7620 have what it takes to reach the heights set by its predecessor? That’s what we’re here to find out.

Looks

At first glance, the B7620 definitely looks a lot like the famed Omnia II. Both Smartphones have that sleek and shiny finish which has become a trademark in Samsung mobiles. The screens look identical, at least in terms of first impression, as the Omnia II’s display is only .2 of an inch wider. However, this is pretty much where the similarities end.

The first difference you’d notice is the B7620’s bronze lining which is able to give off a more elegant feel to the device. And of course, you couldn’t miss the Giorgio Armani label which spans across the top of the B7620’s screen. And then there’s the slide-out QWERTY keyboard. The reason why the B7620 is much thicker than the Omnia II is for it to accommodate the keyboard which conveniently slides out from the Smartphone’s side. Once it pops out, the B7620 becomes much more professional-looking without compromising its elegant façade.

Features

Before we forget anything, we must keep in mind that the Omnia II was released in July, a good three months before the imminent launch of the B7620. That being said, let’s continue with the comparison, now focusing on the feature set of both mobiles.

In terms of connectivity, the two Smartphones pretty much mirror each other. Both also have the same caliber camera (5 Megapixels), as well as the same operating system (Windows Mobile 6.1), user interface (TouchWiz 2.0), and CPU (Samsung S3C6410 800 MHz processor). There also aren’t too many differences in terms of the pre-installed applications as the B7620 also has the Pocket Office, photo/video editor, as well as the multi-format media player on board. The only advantage of the B7620 is – aside from the Giorgio Armani fashion apps, of course – the interchangeable work and life mode which allows users to switch from one pre-set home screen to another depending on their current mobile needs.

Final Words

All in all, the Samsung B7620 Giorgio Armani is definitely a great follow-up to the Omnia II. It takes all of the best features of its highly successful predecessor and wraps it up in one of the most beautiful packages we’ve ever seen to date. Of course much of the credit has got to be given to fashion Guru Giorgio Armani for all the improvements on the device design-wise. The only issue we see is that of pricing. However, if you can afford an Armani suit then what’s a few extra hundred pounds for a mobile phone, right?
