Samsung Jet (S8000) is a mid-range touchscreen mobile phone released in June 2009 by Samsung Mobile.[1][2][3][4] It is styled just like the Samsung i8000 Omnia II, but is smaller in size and runs a proprietary Samsung interface. Like the Omnia II (announced at the same time), the Samsung Jet featured an 800 MHz processor, which was faster than most smartphones of the time.[5]
