Users can enjoy and share these images and videos through high-speed internet access (HSUPA 5.76Mbps and HSDPA 7.2Mbps).

Global positioning system (GPS) with an integrated compass makes OMNIAHD suitable for both pedestrians and drivers, and the navigation touch control and voice guidance via dual stereo speaker provide drivers with easy and safe navigation. The 16GB internal memory — expandable to another 32GB — allows users to store up to 48GB of data.

The company simultaneously announced the launch of its Personal Assistant Perfected — OmniaPRO B7320 in India. Powered by Windows Mobile 6.1, the Samsung OmniaPRO has a compact design and ergonomic QWERTY keypad.
