I am a self diagnosed Phone addict and have had anything from a gold Nokia to a 1st gen iPhone but it's getting time to ditch the N95-1 and iPhone for something better and i thought i'd make a thread where we could yell at each other..
The three phones im looking at are: HTC Touch Diamond, iPhone 3G and Samsung Omnia (SHG-i900)

I haven't made up my mind yet but so far my mental plus / minus list looks like this:
iPhone 3G
+ Great UI
+ Looks good
+ Big Screen (3,5")
+ App Store
+ Works well as a iPod (I can sell my iTouch)
+ I know my way around it
- Everyone are going to have it
- I don't like culture Apple products have around them (iPods not included)
- Very limited and locked down software
- The Hardware is by far the worse / oldest
- No 'proper' GPS (It looks like the GPS is only good for Geotagging and Google Maps)
- Worse camera of the three by far / No Video function
- I actually send MMS
HTC Touch Diamond
+ It's the smallest of the 3
+ Highest resolution screen
+ TouchFlo 3D Looks good
+ Highest clocked CPU, most RAM and the only one with a 3D accelerator chip
- Only 4GB storage
- Smallest screen
- TouchFlo 3D is.. Sluggish
- Worse battery of the 3
- Im not so sure about the looks, HTC has even said it's marketed mostly towards women
- Camera is very weak (Has a flush plastic screen in front of the lens that get smudgy
- Windows Mobile 6.1 (Never had a WinMo phone)
Samsung Omnia (SHG-i900)
+ Comes in 8 and 16GB versions AND has a SDHC slot for an extra 16GB
+ Easily the best hardware / features
+ Best Camera, maby best camera in any non-camera phone (Face detection, smile shutter ect. )
+ I quite like the way it looks, it's understated
+ TouchWhiz (UI) Looks good, it's supposedly easy to get used to and is much faster than the Diamond
+ Comes with proper GPS software (Route 66 i think)
+ I have had Samsung phones before and they had been solid
+ Bigger screen than the Diamond (3.2")
- Windows Mobile 6.1...
- Screen is lower resolution than the two others
- No idea what it will cost yet
- UI Not as 'nice' as the two others
- The UI is new to Samsung so it may be shit to start with
Hmm.. I'll probably add to this when i remember more..
Any thoughts on the phones?
