HTC Touch Diamond |
4 The Touch Diamond has an impressive feature set and the Wi-Fi is especially welcome, but the Omnia offers a bit more. |
4 The HTC Touch Diamond is a well-stocked smartphone, but the lack of expansion capabilities and a lesser camera give the Samsung Omnia the edge in this round. |
4 Both of these phones are jam-packed. The HTC Touch Diamond has everything you can think of: EV-DO Rev. A, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, e-mail, GPS, and more. |

Samsung Omnia (8GB, Unlocked) |
5 The Omnia offers everything the Touch Diamond has, but it adds the Google Launcher and bumps up the camera to 5-megapixels. It wins this round by a nose. |
5 As we noted in the beginning, we're not going to dock points for the lack of U.S. 3G support, since we reviewed a European version of the Omnia. The core features on both smartphones are about even, but the Omnia wins for the reasons stated above. |
5 3G is here, but the European model we tested is not compatible with U.S. 3G networks. I won't hold it against it. It has Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, e-mail, and can expand its storage, potentially up to 32GB. |
