Behold the Omnia HD - Samsung has Unleashed the Kraken

Weighing in at the size of a decent MID, the New Samsung Omnia HD is turning heads(and spraining hands) at MWC. This Symbian S60 5.0 smartphone boasts a record holding 3.7 inch, 16 million color, AMOLED widescreen display with 640x360 resolution. The real knock-out feature of this phone is its ability to shoot 720p video at 24 fps. Launching in capacities of 8GB and 16GB the OmniaHD will feature some standard smartphone functions as well as some light video editing and HDTV output via DLNA connection. The phone's sensor is capable of taking 8MP stills for instant viewing of uploading via the camera's greased lightning 7.2Mbps HSDPA 3G connection. Images and videos can be stored on the internal memory or on MicroSDHC cards up to 32GB.

That immense screen isn't wasted just on outrageous video its also endowed with GPS navigation features. All of these services are commanded with Samsung's updated TouchWiz 3D interface. Accelerometers have almost become standard in high end phones and the OmniaHD is no exception. Bluetooth 2.0, WiFi and motion sensing games and applications have been included to round out the feature list. Oh, and we hear it will make phone calls too. Don't expect this to come cheap even with carrier subsidy and even with the AMOLED low-power screen, expect to keep a charger close at hand.
