Samsung undoubtedly make some seriously sexy mobile phones, but in the past, you couldn't really argue that they were the most powerful. However, that's all changing, with their recent crop of super-powered mobile phones, devices so clever, they probably COULD change the world; the i900, the F480, and now... the stunning Samsung i8510 INNOV8.
Camera, Action
The Samsung i8510 INNOV8 takes the famous Series 60 operating system and builds on it, creating a truly incredible mobile phone. And one of the key reasons for that? It's the first smartphone in the UK to have a huge EIGHT megapixel camera. In actual fact, the most accurate way to describe it is 'an 8 megapixel camera, with lots of extra bits shoved in'. So, you have autofocus, flash, anti-shake and face recognition. The Samsung i8510 INNOV8 can even detect if someone in the photo blinks! Then you have something else entirely unrelated, and yet connected to, the camera, and that is GPS. Why is it connected to the camera? If you use the two things in conjunction, you can 'geo-tag' your photos with the Samsung i8510 INNOV8, adding coordinates of exactly where you were when you took it.
Light/Sound
After you've taken loads of geo-tagged photos with the Samsung i8510 INNOV8, then you can fire up the media player, which is truly fabulous. Music, movies and photos all leap off the screen in vivid colour, and as there's also a TV-Out socket on the Samsung i8510 INNOV8, you can actually use the phone as the centre of a portable cinema and music system!
And when you've done all that, why not surf the web for a while on the Samsung i8510 INNOV8 (hey, maybe you could even download even more media!), using HSDPA? The mobile internet is shown at its best here, as you'll be surfing the net at speeds of up to 7.2Mbps. That's quick on a home connection, but on a mobile, it's unbelievable! Mind you, that's the Samsung i8510 INNOV8 all over. It is, without doubt, unbelievable!
