Following in the footsteps of the Sony Ericsson Satio and the Samsung M8910 Pixon12, the Korea-based telecom giant has come up with another super powerful camera mobile that is able to snap photos at an amazing 12 Megapixels. Yup, you read it right; that’s a mind-boggling 12 Megapixels. Mobile phones are now entering a whole new arena in terms of their cameras and these new of devices have snappers that are even more powerful than most commercial digital cameras. Here’s what Samsung has pulled out of their hat. Kept on the Down Low
The information available on the new Samsung M8920 is currently limited and this includes the product’s projected launch price. However, most of our sources state that we should expect a third quarter release. This means the new M8920 should start hitting stores by August or September of this year.
Enhanced Pixon12
All roads point to the fact that the M8920 will be a beefed up version of Samsung’s Pixon12. Given the handsets’ model numbers, it is likely that the M8920 will share most of its features with its predecessor. If anything, we should expect the new model to be a more powerful device that will sport enhanced features.
Surely the M8920 will be a quad-band 2G device and should work in HSDPA 900 / 2100 over the 3G network. GPRS, EDGE, WLAN, and Bluetooth connectivity should also be present. Also expect it to have Samsung’s famed user interface.
The only photo available online is a shot from behind of the M8920’s camera so there is no certainty yet on how exactly the mobile will look like. However, chances are this new mobile will not be too different with the Pixon12 in terms of design.
Out of This World Snapper
Aside from having an ultra powerful 12-Megapixel camera with 3x optical zoom, the M8920 should also have the advanced camera features present in the M8910 such as a smart auto mode, wide dynamic range, smile, face & blink detection, geo-tagging, and touch autofocus tracking.
