Samsung Pixon 8 Megapixel Camera Phone Officially Announced

After Samsung pre-announced the Pixon 8 megapixel camera phone in Russia last week, the company have now issued a worldwide press release for the new camera phone announcement. Being the world’s slimmest full-touch 8-megapixel camera phone, the Samsung Pixon boasts a 13.8mm slim design as well as other features like 16x digital zoom, auto-focus, fast-shutter, face detection and geo-tagging.


Geesung Choi, President of the Samsung Telecommunications Business, said “Now everyone will be able to ‘get their pics on’ so much more quickly and easily. For the first time you will have a camera on your phone capable of delivering the quality of image of a regular camera. The big benefit is not just the ease with which people will now be able to capture and share camera-phone shots, but the quality of those shots when taken.”

The Samsung Pixon will be available first in France in mid-October and soon to be available in most of European countries and Asian countries.
