Since the beginning of the year, we have been witnessing an influx of mind blowing phones into the industry. Especially in terms of camera pixel strenght, document viewing compatibility, Wi-Fi connectivity, GPS, etc.
This time Samsung has raised the bar higher as they have gone ahead to announce a 12.0 mega pixel camera; now not a digital camera O, but a mobile phone! Can you imagine what you can capture with that? Anyway it is called the PIXON-12, otherwise known as the M8910. Looking like the omnia and the 5800, but more of the 5800, the pixon spots a display type of AMOLED capacitive touch screen, 16M colors of size 480 x 800 pixels, 3.1 inches.
However it was announced if the pixon comes with an accelerometer sensor [what use would the 12MP be without the sensor for viewing, I really hope otherwise sha]. According to it’s announcement on the 1st of June, the pixon is to be released before the month runs out.
Its memory is relatively low for a phone of its
kind, imagine 150MB internal storage only! Arrgh! Well at least you
have your card slot supporting up to 16GB tran flash cards. The PIXON
sits awkwardly on Class 10 on both GPRS AND EDGE. Not compatible on the
HSCSD, and connects via WLAN only what happened to Wi-Fi technology and
why does it not come with an in-built processor? [Unanswered questions].
The camera that seems to be the sole purpose of the phone’s existence; capable of auto-focus and comes with xenon flash and power LED flash. The camera also comes with the following features; touch auto focus tracking, geo-tagging, face, smile and blink detection, wide dynamic range, and smart auto mode.
Samsung, I know nokia has been holding the market down and you guys are trying to meet up or even step up, but with this kind of a gadget....
