B7620 is Giorgio Armani 2, will sport 800MHz CPU
Hail Bluetooth SIG because without them we wouldn’t have known what Samsung is planning behind closed doors. New Samsung phone added to the expanding Bluetooth Product directory is GT-B7620. If you’ve been following Samsung’s nomenclature, phones under the B7XXX fall under the Omnia Pro Series but B7620 is in fact, Giorgio Armani 2. How about this tweet as a proof?
Anyways, the good thing is that the phone is decently packed and will appeal to the power as well as fashion conscious users. The phone runs on Windows Mobile 6.1 Pro (which I reckon will get an upgrade to WinMo 6.5 in the near future) and houses a fast 800MHz processor. It will also have an unspecified chip to handle graphics discretely, Stereo FM Radio with RDS, Wi-Fi, A-GPS, Bluetooth, Business card scanner, Pocket Office, Photo/video editor and Work/Life mode that could be something related to the user profile. The phone also enjoys a variety of multimedia codec support like MP3/WAV/e-AAC+/WMA/AMR for music and DivX/XviD/MPEG4/3gp/H.263/H.264 for video.
Now let’s hope Samsung announces the phone asap without the need to postpone the device again.
UPDATE: Ron from Mobilecowboys claims to have played with the device. He says the phone has a sliding QWERTY keyboard and an Armani branding with Gold accents. If that’s the case then we can expect the Armani phone to be on the lines of OmniaPRO B7610 (or maybe the same with different branding).
PS: The image above is just an old mockup.

[...] Before you get too excited, this picture does not in any way relate to the Samsung B7620 which is now widely expected to be the second luxury Georgio Armani mobile phone. It’s based on the Omnia Pro and will run Windows Mob…zzzzzzz..sorry, Window Mobile 6.1 Pro (possibly later 6.5) on a 800MHz processor. It’ll have Stereo FM Radio with RDS, Wi-Fi, A-GPS and Bluetooth as well as a host of office software and multimedia editing options but somehow I doubt that’s the reason people will be buying a designer label phone. There’s support for all sorts of codecs in the shape of MP3, WAV, AAC+, WMA, DivX, XviD, MPEG4, H.263 and H.264, and there’s even talk of a slide-out QWERTY. Pretty high spec all things considered. No word on whether it’s actually going to make it to market this time around but Samsung would look a bit silly if it didn’t happen twice. (via Samsung Hub) [...]
