Multi-tasking on the Omnia HDThe Samsung i8910 Omnia HD is one of the highest performance phones on the market, sporting a 600 MHz ARM Cortex-A8 CPU and 256MB of RAM. That power under the hood is needed to handle HD video, but it also puts it in good stead when it comes to day-to-day tasks. It means that browsing the UI is a snappy experience and hopefully should mean fewer crashes.

This is a theory one user wanted to put to the test. He wanted to see how many applications he could open without the phone slowing down or crashing. Without any apps open the amount of free RAM stood at 140MB, but even when having 12-15 apps open the RAM was still an impressive 58MB. I could see no visible slowdown when having that many applications open. Check out the video after the break.

    Seems like you both lost internet connection which may have led to the phone crashing. What has been demonstrated is the phone does not crash as a result of numerous applications being open. If you have used symbianware as long as I have you’ll understand the extra RAM in this phone is amazing and the test that was performed here. I think your both missing the point.
