12 July, 2008

just for all of the se fans to know, samsung didnt copy the camera from se, do you think that they waited until sony ericsson announced the c905 and started developing the i8510. they have both in the works for a while. Also you might be interested to know that samsung made the sensors for both phones. yes samsung made the sensor for the se905. so wonder how samsung copies everyone.

          will it have 3x Optical Zoom like the G810/G800 ?

          I have some problem to install S60 s/w in my G810 which i sold it away after 2 weeks.

          Is the Symbian FP 2.0 ? Will it have full screen caller id like N78 and 6220 Classic ? I am excited =)

            you got to be kidding, nokia copy ? Do you know this phone is using nokia OS SYMBIAN S60? Go try out any s60 samsung device and read the about. They will tell you that s60 is develop by nokia and licence by nokia. And Who came off with large built in memory & memory card slot? Who came out the idea of all in one device?
            If the both sony & samsung 8mega is using cmos i've got nothing to say. as nokia is using cmos sensor in n95 & n82 to produce better imaging. I've tried sony 5mega, the quailty is still not up to the so call cybershot.
            Megapixel is not talking about the picture sharpness it's about the print out size. Many people get it wrongly.

            I own both n82 & n95 but I'm not a nokia fan or so, just my comments. But i agree, this will be a great phone compare to the new sony 8mega as the sony is thick & nothing special whats more it's using symbian s60. Maybe i will change my n95 for this phone if it produce good image. And also i love the user interface of nokia s60.

                    Red Alert on N96!! It announced so long ago and still dun wanna release. Now flagship phs such as omnia, diamond already on market. and 8 mega this one and SE 905 is on the way. Nokia must make some improvements on N96 , otherwise they will lose many potential customers. may be cancel N96 and go straight for N98(so cool design though its fake photoshop version).

                        Nokia N95 & 8GB versions, had the best camera on a phone ever. Then cam N82 etc. The quality of photos they produced were unsurpassed by any other mobile.

                        Samsung usually do produce alot of quality phones, though this is another N95 wanna-be. I don't know how successful this will be, with the huge competition of N96 and HTC

                            lee , 13 Jul 2008and y u think that is with g600?? Cos no one wants it lol! ... moreThen why is the G600 a best seller? People want to buy a phone that has a 5 megapixel without getting bankrupt that's why samsung has provided us with two 5 megapixel handsets,one for mainstream and one as a flagship.Well at least g600 spld more then k850i right?

As for g800 that didnt stay round long enough as most mobile networks withdrew the handsets good handsets dont get withdrawn the same year for example k800 same payg price as g600 which is ment to have better camera and is almost 2years newer!

                                  Another news from GSMArena (posting at March 18, 2008) :

                                  Today Samsung announced the world's thinnest 8 megapixel module to integrate in mobile phone. The module is a glimpse into how the future is shaping for cameraphones. And it's the not-so-distant future too, with integration expected to begin in the second half of the year.
                                  The nice thing is that the goodies the new module brings don't end with the few xtra pixels. There's also face detection, anti-shake and 1-cm macro.

                                        I got news from the past (2006) :

                                        Samsung introduced SCH-B600 a 10 Megapixel camera phone at the CeBIT 2006 in Hannover, Germany. This will set another milestone for Samsung which also the first to introduce the first camera phone in 2000(I think it's SGH-V200), the World's first 5 Megapixel camera in 2004, and the World's 7 Megapixel camera in 2005(I think it's SCH-V770). The Samsung 10 Megapixel camera phone has a better resolution than most digital cameras on the market(It's mean on 2006), which have resolution between 3 million & 8 million pixels. Samsung SCH-B600 also come with 3x optical zoom and 5x digital zoom.
