Fortunately, the Pixon’s 12-megapixel claim to greatness, which guarantees you nothing at all except for the industry’s largest file sizes, is complemented by some decent specs, starting with a 3.1″ AMOLED touchscreen, 3G and FM radio.
Compliments of the FCC, we have some confirmation of rumours that Samsung will be releasing the 8MP Pixon M8800L smartphone to the US market.
Over at Phonearena they’ve got their hands on one of those 8-megapixel Samsung M8800 Pixons, and they’ve given it a good preview prodding. In general the phone went down well: though it’s a slightly fat device, the 8-megapixel camera (which shares an identical interface to the Omnia) impressed them particularly in terms of speed, and the multimedia capabilities got a thumbs-up too. They weren’t overly impressed by the browser, however, and the lack of menu personalisation options, plus the fact that it’s not quite a smartphone…being a little more like the F480 than the Omnia.

This is Samsung’s promo video for the upcoming M8800 mobile phone (aka Pixon) with 8-megapixel camera. In fact it looks very much like a compact camera from the rear, and its 3.2-inch screen bears the same TouchWiz interface as the Omnia. That screen is a 400 x 240 pixel touchscreen with touch keyboard and handwriting recognition, and the phone has AGPS, accelerometer and FM radio. Read on for hands-on photos and full specs.
