Samsung G800 - 5 Megapixel Camera Phone

Samsung recently announced the addition of the G800 - a mobile phone that boasts a 5 megapixel camera with 3X optical zoom under it’s shiny armor.

The G800 has a new camera Graphical User Interface (GUI) which is intuitive and simple to use so that the user experiences the same environment as a digital camera when using the camera function on the phone. An On Screen Display (OSD) shows various camera indicators in a horizontal preview mode.

A sleek camera phone, the G800 looks like a streamlined digital camera on one side and a fashionable mobile phone on the other side. Elegantly equipped with multimedia features, the G800 still has a sophisticated design. It is designed for the two handed grip when taking pictures. The large 2.4” QVGA LCD with a wide display allows users to view the screen like a digital camera. The 3x optical zoom is an inner zoom, where the lens does not extend outside the body of the phone, ensuring a slimmer design.

The Samsung G800 will be available in European countries in November 2007. No word on pricing.
