Samsung Pixon: The Phone Camera

October 1, 2008 in Handsets, Samsung

You’re used to the word “Camera Phone”, right? Because “Camera” is used as an adjetive that further describes the main device in question - a phone. The Samsung Pixon could be considered a Phone Camera because its an awesome camera that also happens to function as a phone.

Zach Epstien from BGR pointed this out with a pretty cool little article that breaks down the Camera Specs and Phone Specs separately. Lets take a look:

Camera Specs

  • 8 megapixel camera with autofocus
  • 16x digital zoom and Fast Shutter
  • Dual Power LED flash
  • ASR (Advanced Shake Reduction)
  • WDR (Wide Dynamic Range)
  • Face Detection, Smile Shot, Face Link (face tagging) and Photo memo
  • Auto Panorama Shot
  • Geotagging support (integrated GPS)
  • Photo Browser (Accelerometer Sensor, Tilt and flip, Sorting by Face/Time/Color/Folder)
  • 30 fps D1 (720 x 480) video capture
  • 120 fps (QGVA) slow motion video capture
  • MPEG4, WMV, DivX, XviD playback support
  • TV-out

Wow… impressive! And how about those phone specs? Not quite as top notch.

Phone Specs

  • Quad Band GSM (850/900/1800/1900) / GPRS / EDGE
  • WCDMA 2100 / HSDPA 7.2 Mbps connectivity (2100 only?! Fail)

  • SRS (Surround Sound System) Virtual 5.1CH
