Round 5: Call quality

Can you hear me now?

Cell phones aren't worth much if they don't make good calls. And though both handsets run on the same carrier, audio quality differences may remain.

The Touch Diamond offers great call quality that surpassed the Omnia. Its speakerphone wasn't as great, but it still wins this round.

This round is a draw for me. Both the Touch Diamond and Omnia offered pretty good call quality with just a bit of background noise.

Call quality sounded slightly better on the Touch Diamond, but speakerphone was definitely harder to understand.

The Omnia has a bit more static on the line during calls. The speakerphone was just OK.

See comment above.

Call quality was solid with the Omnia as well. The difference is the Omnia's speakerphone doesn't have much of a drop-off.
