Samsung Omnia M is announced, coming to Europe soon
Well, it turns out the Samsung Focus 2 was not the only Windows Phone device that the company had in stock for us this week. Introducing the Samsung Omnia M – a new Windows Phone handset aimed at customers that prioritize social connectivity and entertainment features.

After a quick look at its specs sheet it becomes evident that the Samsung Omnia M is but a mid-range smartphone. To start, it has a 1GHz single core processor backed up by 384MB of RAM. The device's Super AMOLED display with "reduced glare" measures 4 inches in diagonal and has a resolution of 480 by 800 pixels, which is standard for Windows Phone 7.5 devices.

On its back resides a 5-megapixel camera with LED flash, and a VGA front-facing shooter enables video chats. Other features include 4GB of built-in storage, 1,500mAh battery, 7.2Mbps 3G HSPA radio, Wi-Fi and GPS. All of these goodies are contained within a 119 gram body that is only 10.5 millimeters thick.

When it comes to software, Samsung has thrown in a few tricks of its own in there. Most notably, we see that the ChatON service is present allowing multi-platform IM-ing, along with Family Network, which is a cloud-based service from Samsung meant to facilitate communication between family members. Samsung AllShare for wireless media streaming is present as well.

The Samsung Omnia M will be released in Europe first, after which a rollout in other regions will follow. Pricing and exact availability dates have yet to be disclosed.
