That’s right, those of you yearning for an 8.0 Megapixel camera in a touchscreen mobile phone but not quite taken by the LG Renoir are in luck; the Samsung Pixon has arrived! The Samsung Pixon, also known as the M8800 and previously the Bresson, is the second 8 Megapixel camera phone to come from the Korean mobile manufacturer, following hot on the heels of the excellent i8510, and in terms of style and design, I would have to concede that Samsung is winning the race in the 8 Megapixel category. The Pixon looks more like a classy digital camera when held as such thanks to the brilliant display and massive lens on the back.
But the Samsung Pixon is about much more than just looks. In the camera department along with the 8.0 Megapixel power we find autofocus, led flash, face, smile and blink detection, advanced shake reduction and impressive video capture capabilities with support for up to 120 frames per second in QVGA resolution. And that’s not all, the Samsung Pixon is more than just a flashy camera, Samsung have also found room for HSDPA connectivity, GPS so you can Geo-tag your photos, an MP3 player and impressive video playback capabilities with both DivX and Xvid file formats supported, TV out to watch all those pretty pictures and of course, Bluetooth v2.0 and expandable memory. But let’s face it, they’re a given on a phone of this spec. And all of these features are put firmly at your finger tips thanks to the
excellent 3.2 inch TFT touchscreen display which features an accelerometer which rotates the screen to match the orientation of the phone, Haptic feedback which vibrates when an icon is chosen and Samsung’s popular Widgets menu interface (previously found on the Tocco) which lets you drag and drop shortcuts onto the home screen. All this firmly puts the Samsung Pixon right up there with the best of the best, not only in camera features, but as an all round multimedia phone!
The Pixon is now in stock on O2, Orange and T-Mobile so you’re simply spoilt for choice when it comes to selecting your tariff and free gift. Click here to take a look and you could be enjoying 8.0 Megapixel touchscreen fun as soon as tomorrow!
