    hey im pretty happy with my omnia. got 2 of them and they are great unlocked mobile phones. camera and recorder are great, my wife loves them for catching family moments. the email and gps are great for my new business keeping in touch with clients is really easy. phone feels great and the touch screen is nice. much better than our old unlocked htc phones. facebook and games keep us busy when were bored and the games are fun for my kids and me when i’m inbetween appointments. great unlocked phones. battery life is long enough to last all day and the touch screen is responsive enough to where i don’t have to push down on the screen which can be annoying. it’s easy to scroll around and the keys on the bottom are easy to push. got our last couple unlocked gsm phones at gsmallover.com and we love them. 2 thumbs up
