Samsung Omnia Pro B7330 Leaks

Topic:

It's a bird! It's a plane! It's a slightly blurry photo of an update to the Samsung Omnia Pro B7320. This new smartphone, the B7330, looks to be a dressed up, prettier version of its predecessor with a slightly wider, 2.63” display. Unwired View has managed to get a hold of a snapshot, as well as info on this new smartphone's specs.

In addition to the wider screen, this phone also has an upgraded camera and battery. The shooter is now 3.2 megapixels, and the battery is a beefier 1500 mAH. The biggest upgrade, however, is in the operating system. The 7330 packs WinMo 6.5, which likely means that it is due for a mid-October release along with the OS itself.
