Samsung Omnia II for Verizon

The powerful Windows Mobile-based Samsung Omnia II is expected to make its way to Verizon Wireless' lineup in the near future, and now an image with the device has also emerged into the wild. The first thing that anyone who knows the Omnia II can already notice is that Verizon's version seems to be quite different from the original model.

The distinctive cubic d-pad that was present on the original Omnia II is not there anymore, ant the handset looks just like another Samsung phone that emerged into the wild recently, namely the SCH-B900, which was just launched on the market in Korea. Other than that, it seems that Omnia II is set to come to Verizon with a 1500mAh battery packed inside, which means that it should be able to deliver enough usage time to its owners.

According to an article on UnwiredView, the Omnia II for Verizon is none other than the Samsung SCH-i920, which was caught in FCC's courtyard back in June. The specs list of the phone should include Bluetooth, EV-DO and Wi-Fi connectivity, as well as a 3.5mm headset jack, FM radio, and the TouchWiz UI from the phone maker.

There are no exact details on whether the handset will sport even more differences from the original model, but we can always hope it will deliver most of them to Verizon's users too. Until some more details on the phone become available, we should take a look at the SCH-B900 for Korea, which will also include the TouchWiz UI, along with CMDA EV-DO connectivity.

The specification list of the device also shows a 3-inch touchscreen display that boasts a 240 x 400 pixel resolution, as well as a 6-megapixel photo snapper, built-in GPS receiver, DMB TV, Bluetooth connectivity, a MicroSD memory card slot that supports up to 16GB of additional storage space, and a 960 mAh battery.
