Samsung M8800 Pixon

Samsung M8800 Pixon

Samsung has officially announced its brand new M8800 Pixon mobile phone. It’s another touchscreen-enabled device that features a 3.2-inch 400×240 display, 8-megapixel camera with a host of imaging features such as face recognition, smile detection and a bunch of others, triband HSDPA, GPS, Bluetooth, FM radio, DivX playback and an accelerometer as well. Unlike its other touchscreen brethren, the M8800 runs on a proprietary OS as opposed to more popular systems such as Windows Mobile and S60, and lacks WiFi. However, with so many imaging features, one can probably look past those shortcomings.

It’s expected to start shipping in November with a price of 550 Euro, roughly $800 in US currency. It’ll probably make an RP debut in early 2009 that is unless Samsung Philippines decides to push it for an earlier release which we’ll surely appreciate.
