Following the success of Samsung SGH-F488, the Samsung M8800 Pixon has got everything even better! Let’s find out what’s new!
The package comes with the phone, a battery, a charger and a user’s guide. There’s also a strap and a camera pouch for maximum protection of this beauty. The handsfree is split into two: 1 adapter with mic and 1 earphone.
Like its predecessor, the phone is thin with a huge screen. This time Samsung increased the screen size to 3.2”, so it’s a bit elongated than the Samsung SGH-F488.
The answer, reject key and the central button are the only keys on the front surface. Don’t worry, the Samsung M8800 has one of the finest touch screen on this planet, you can handle most tasks with the on-screen menu and keyboard.
The back cover is not completely plain. The camera and the bottom part are slightly protruded. To open the back cover, press the button on the top of the phone.
The 8MP camera comes with auto-focus and a lot of scenes to choose. In operation it feels like a “real” camera. Regrettably it misses optical zoom, so it probably can’t replace your digital camera.
The card slot is protected by a cover which integrates with the body quite well.
Press and hold the camera button to engage in camera mode. This button doubles as the shutter button in camera button as well. The central button on the front surface is NOT the shutter button, pressing it will bring back the home screen only.
The widget now has more icons to play with. However, the most notable difference is speed. You can now switch between Widget and Menu mode smoothly, compared with the sluggish transition on the Samsung SGH-F488 this is a great leap forward!
Press the central button while you are talking on the phone will launch the screen below. The phone has some multi-tasking ability. You can open the contact book or messages while you are listening to music or talking on phone. But don’t expect it to run several Java programs at once!
Finally a phone with accurate exposures! All the camera phones I had tested before had some problems with exposure, but the Samsung M8800 Pixon has no problem with that.
The Samsung M8800 Pixon produces cooler pictures than other camera phones. This is not exactly a problem because Samsung is being more “true to the original” than other manufacturers, and I think that’s the right stance for a serious camera phone.
Look!~The photos are pretty sharp.
A shot with the flash on. It looks more moderate and perfect compared with those used in Motorola ZN5 which is blindingly bright and it causes some real annoyance to the one in front of the camera. But the one used in Samsung M8800 Pixon is adequate for most indoor shots. Good job in adjusting this, Samsung!
The phone is a great improvement from the Samsung F488! The screen, camera and speed have all got a healthy boost. The price is reasonable for a 8MP camera phone. Wi-Fi would be a nice bonus, but I think that will drive the phone to a higher price point. Let’s pray that Samsung will introduce more colors for this model (as it did for Samsung SGH-F488)!
