Samsung Continues 8MP Parade with i8510

July 22, 2008 in Handsets, Rumor Mill, Samsung

We’re not sure how many times the camera phone megapixel barrier has been broken this year, but it seems like a Cold War style arms race for the top manufacturers to produce the phone with the biggest snapshot. Sony Ericsson was first with the C905, then rumors of an LG 8MP beast hit the streets and now 8MP phone rumors from Samsung are staring us in the eyes.

So the convergence of phones and cameras continue. Pretty soon, only the photograph obsessed and career 1-2-3-Cheesers will need a dedicated picture taking device. Speaking of pictures, take a look at these shots, rumored to be the Samsung i8510 (scroll down for specs and source):
