Samsung G800 review: Camera with a phone

14 December 2007
It seems Samsung are really stepping on it in the 5 megapixel cameraphone race. In a stark display of audacity, the G800 is pitched as a digicam that can make calls. We usually deal with gadgets that are the other way around but we've been eager to test...

        They just turn on the camera and take the photo ¬¬*
        Why don´t make a test using the real camera functions???
        My k850 take far away better pics than booth here!Using no one function the k750 can take better pics than this...
        It's a offense against se users and the brand!Shame gsm arena!Shame!

          those pictures details are nice.
          i know that samsung has some good mobile phones, but i really am impressed by the quality of the camera.
          now, if only they could fix the "disadvantages" mentioned above, then this phone will become hit for sure.

              Had this phone now for about three weeks, and I am really impressed. Sick of Nokia and the hick-ups they have, hate SE and the design of their phones, so the G800 has it all for me..., really COOOL design, feels like a million dollars, and works...all the time. Only disadvantage I can think of is battery capacity, this I would hope was better / longer.
              Takes marvelous pictures, and reaaly good sound quality when on the phone and also from the MP3 player.

                Very disappoited... SE K850 (Just camera)... the others functions (TRack Id, Media player, etc).... is very better than G800. entertainment = sony ericsson do the best at all!

                  this would be a perfect phone- if it wasn't for Samsung's outdated, aincient UI. I love the look and feel of it, and the rear part where the camera's located I just wish they'd change the ui...

                          Where is Sony Ericsson??????

                          It has really disappointed with its offerings. No new design, functionalities or anything...

                          What it offers are either inferior or same as its competitors.

                            not so many people know about iMobile-902 . So still n82 is the champion.

                                The 5mp camphone which i loved the most - as a camera

                                nice shots for G800, SE really needs to take into consideration the following - to remove the glass lens that covers the automatic lens cover: that was the main culprit of all smudges and fringing across all it's pics, and of course to use CCD or ExmorCMOS instead of what it was currently using :) SE now looses glory with their K850 disaster :( but theres always chances for next time ;)

                                anyway still my bet for the best camphone for image quality was none other than iMobile-902 and SO905iCS ;) bite that N95,N82,G600,G800,K850,Viewty!

                                  k850 is a alltime looser. Sony should cancel this product. Their reputation is in danger.

                                      Will it sit flat on its side for taking timer shots?
