Samsung G800 phone with 5MP camera

Posted on Sunday, October 28 2007 @ 7:11 CET by Thomas De Maesschalck

Samsung's new G800 phone features a 5 megapixel camera, with xenon flash and 3x optical zoom.

Samsung's new G800 slider is now official, packing a 5 megapixel autofocus camera in a rather attractive metallic form; that in itself isn't terribly notable, considering we already have a handful of 5 megapixel handsets on the market. What is notable, though, is the added bonus of a xenon flash and 3x optical (yes, optical) zoom. Heck, from the back, you can barely tell it's a phone at all. Add in the usual goodies like Bluetooth, HSDPA, and a generously sized QVGA display, and Samsung has a winner on its hands..

The G800 will be available next month in Europe. Pricing details aren't available yet.
