Samsung has been built for greatness, and for some reason, they love to enhance the way designers are made to develop enhanced technology in which models are designed for greatness, and more importantly, the marketing strategy on which they must target to build and attract more customers to buy their phones in any mobile phone stores or in malls worldwide. Today, another amazing phone was born, and it will be a great competitor to other types of models in its respective brand and other rival companies like Nokia, Sony Ericsson, Alcatel and other phone brands, and the one we’re talking about is the all-new Samsung Pixon 12.
Can anybody tell why is it called Samsung Pixon 12? You may wonder why Samsung definitely named this kind of amazing phone. There is one main reason. Samsung Pixon 12 is professionally designed to be the first ever phone, with 12 MP digicam, to be created which no other company had ever done this before. It is going to be a spectacular phone which has an amazing unique feature, which Samsung Pixon 12 guarantees you nothing at all except in which they have the largest file sizes in the industry, which is complemented by decent specs that starts with an FM radio, 3G features, and a 3.1 inch AMOLED touchscreen.
Its internal storage is a huge 150 MB that could store up to a thousand pictures you ever stored, but there’s a disadvantage, which in this stage for a camera-centric phone, it is glaringly weak when it releases to the big market. However, it can be bundled with SD cards that are compatible to this phone, but it is not yet necessary for now. Customers are just relying on the quality of this phone, and that’s what Samsung Pixon 12 really does have good quality, enhanced features and easy to handle. Its shooting speed is much quicker than the average digicam, which clocks at about two seconds per shot. It also has an amazing feature which is the touch autofocus, which allows the user to choose a focal point by pointing your finger in the targeted menu, and the result will be, the camera will now focus on its subject automatically. The superstar feature of this amazing phone is the flash-equipped camera itself. You know why? It is the main feature that with the 12 MP, capturing quality moments is what we’re relying on.
For some years, camera has evolved in the quality of shooting and capturing moments, when it was invented in the late 19th century only thing is that, color is not present in that era, until in the late 70’s or 80’s, it develops color, but sad to say, quality is not yet good, until now, we find ways to enhance good quality of our pictures in order to develop and post it in our photo albums, in which we need digicam for that. Why don’t we say let’s move to a device which you need 100% quality of your camera shots and also improved communication in one place? If we think that this is what we need, then Samsung Pixon 12 is the right one to buy and own.
As Samsung made an impressive showing at the GSMA World Congress it's difficult to pick one of its new phones as the most notable. Yet, the company's Omnia HD certainly would be in the running. We had the opportunity to check it out while visiting with Samsung in Barcelona, Spain. Though the Omnia HD is the next-generation model of the existing Omnia, it shows a few design differences. The curved ends give it a more eye-catching, aerodynamic look. It's also slightly bigger than its predecessor is, but we'll gladly take the extra heft with the stunning 2.7-inch 3.7-inch, 16 million-color display. In all ways, it's bright and beautiful--colors were vibrant, graphics were sharp and video lives up the HD name.
The display uses Samsung's TouchWiz interface with a customizable widget bar on the left side. The touch interface for both finger swiping and selecting icons was responsive and the Symbian interface is intuitive. The display works in landscape and includes an accelerometer for certain functions like the virtual QWERTY keyboard. Speaking of which, the keyboard is very comfortable, thanks to the display's large size. We had no problems tapping away.
The three physical controls below the display include Talk and End/power button; they're rather thin, but we didn't find them to be problematic. There's a single VGA camera lens above the display for video calling while the main lens for the 8-megapixel shooter is located on the rear. It has a flash but no sliding lens cover. Other exterior controls include a volume rocker on the left spine and a camera shutter, a screen lock control and a Micro-USB port on the right spine. The headset jack is located conveniently on the top of the device, but the memory card slot is behind the battery cover.
Features include HSDPA 3G support an 8-megapixel camera, an FM radio, assisted-GPS, Bluetooth, a music player, organizer applications, a speakerphone, and Wi-Fi.
Samsung used the launch of the new Jet phone to announce a new range of phones, with the flagship product being the Omnia 2 I8000.
Featuring a massive 3.7-inch touchscreen, the new Omnia 2 has a clear WVGA display on top of the Windows Mobile 6.1 operating system.
It has a 5MP camera with Auto-focus and dual LED flash, with a number of extra photo features we've come to expect from Samsung's mobile phone range. All the usual suspects are contained within the high-end chassis, including video recording and playback, a-GPS, up to 16GB of internal memory and support for up to 32GB of expansion thanks to a microSD slot.
Wealth of features
Considering the wealth of features under the hood, the phone comes in at a fairly svelte 118 x 60 x 11.9mm body, with up to 430 hours of standby time. The phone is the head of a new range of Omnia phones, including the Omnia Pro B7610 and B7320 that we brought you new of earlier today, as well as a less feature-rich model in the Omnia Lite, the B7300.
Samsung's new range will all feature Windows Mobile 6.1, which will update to 6.5 when the new OS is released. We're currently harassing the relevant people in Samsung to find out when these will be released, and we'll let you know as soon as we do.
Samsung has a reputation for producing high-tech phones that are on the cutting edge of current trends. Their newest offering, the Samsung Memoir, is no different. This is a state-of-the-art phone that boasts the ability to replace your current full-sized digital camera. From what Samsung has said, it most definitely has enough features to do this, but until you can get your hands on it, it’s very hard to know, in reality, what you can expect. Is this really the futuristic device they say it is?
Is it going to be a phone that can make your coffee for you and set you up with super-models? Or would you be better off trying to make phone calls using a brick? There’s only one way to find out. We’ve had the very rare opportunity to take a look at this exceptional piece of equipment, and tell you guys exactly what to expect when it comes out. Read this review, and then make your own mind up.
The Samsung Memoir, also known as the SGH-t929, is only being released by T-Mobile. The price has not yet been released, but be expected to pay a good fortune if you don’t get it with a contract. T-Mobile is usually pretty good at discounting phones as long as you sign up for a 2-year service plan however, so as long as you like T-Mobile’s service, you should be able to get it at a decent price. Especially if it can replace your phone AND your digital camera, right?
Over the past decade, Samsung is trying to reach its goal which they have one thing in mind, and that is to grow their annual sales and intro-perspective markets which are based on the demand of the customers who are attracted to innovative types of mobile phones like Samsung. Samsung has been very successful year after year, as new models launched every two to three months, more and more people are attracted to any of those Samsung phones, either in a simple type, slide type or “open-close†type. Now, another great model has risen and evolved, and it could be a big hit to the mobile phone market soon, which Samsung now opens its doors to introduce the newest and revolutionized Samsung Jet Smartphone.
It has awesome quality features when this phone invades the Samsung world, with its high definition features like the TouchWiz 2.0 user interface with motion UI, widget screen that can be customized, and a smart unlock feature that the users will enable this phone to unlock the phone and a menu execution will appear directly, in terms of drawing alphabets on the touch screen. Touch screens are one of the best features that any compatible device that have this kind of feature, in which you can select the menus by a point of the finger, or use a specialized touch-screen pen or stick which are compatible to their respective touch screen phones like IPhone. This Samsung Jet Smartphone touch screen device has an amazing feature which has a processor of 800MHz, and its main operating system, the Dolphin web browser was included. The dimensions of Samsung Jet SmartPhone are smaller compared to popular IPhones like Apple, which are to be known as one of the best-selling phones in town, and that results to a tough competition between the two parties.
Samsung Jet Smartphone also full-packed with awesome multimedia features, which includes DNSe, 5MP Camera, SRS sound effect technology for enhanced sound system, built-in GPS, and XVid and DivX for support of downloading videos and good quality viewing purposes. The best thing for their GPS is that they have a feature called geo-tagging, which a geo-magnetic sensor was enabled to send more traffic updates on their conditions in terms of SMS. GPS can be set to either “Walk to†or “Drive to†modes. GPS system also has a compass and information regarding the location of links for navigating purposes.
Samsung Jet Smartphone also has a unique screen which you can view up to 180 degrees, and it only consumes energy to about 30% to 40% than any mobile phone which are totally equipped with TFT-LCD display. Because of the 800MHz processor, Jet is claimed to be the handset with the fastest full-touch feature ever to be professionally designed worldwide. They also claimed that the Samsung Jet Smartphone is the first ever phone that was professionally designed to success, which the feature of this amazing phone is to implement the Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync Email System, which offers good quality streamline user interface which results to the improvement of push-emails for any types of users either for business or for entertainment, it doesn’t matter, as long as this phone really shows up good competition to other huge-producing rival companies like Nokia and Ericsson. This amazing phone is highlighted or equipped with “one-finger zoomâ€, which the one-hand operation is enabled either to zoom in and out of the screen, and it deals with the Samsung’s Dolphin web browser that users may zoom in like a magnifier that they can see such small texts in any file type like PDF, TXT, PPT and other related files to it.
Samsung Jet Smartphone was also equipped with the 3.1 inch 16M WVGA AMOLED screen, which is four times more powerful and better than any types of mobile phones with WQVGA screen, and it claims to be “the most colorful and vivid full-touch mobile†ever in a experience that will change the way of communication, business and entertainment. Along with all of these features, it also has a “motion gate†feature, which the users will grant full access to speed dialing by flipping, tapping or tilting the phone, as well as the multimedia content. It was such a good thing that anything will happen as long as the presence of technology being designed and developed by Samsung, it will certainly make the company successful, just like the brand new Samsung Jet Smartphone. Thousands and millions of shoppers worldwide are now looking for such amazing phones which have great and unique features, which were never seen before, and if they want something new to their pocket, then Samsung Jet Smartphone is what they’re looking for right now as it launches in the big market soon.
Samsung have added yet another touchscreen phone to their lineup which is the Samsung Eternity. At the time of writing this, they already have several touchscreens of this style that they produce. At first glance, some of the Samsung Eternity features seem just like their other phones, and it is in the same price range as most of their phones ($149 with a contract, $369 without). Look at the Samsung Behold, the Samsung Omnia, and the Samsung Instinct. Just like Samsung Eternity, they are all full-face touchscreens with the same style of navigation buttons on the bottom, and they all come, by default, in the same shade of black. If you were to lay the 4 phones in order on a table, the novice user would not be able to tell much of a difference between them - much less tell you which phone is which!
So with Samsung already having so many phones of this style, this is going to have to be some special phone for it to stand out above the competition and warrant the sacrifice of your hard-earned money to bring it home with you. The question, then: Does the Samsung Eternity pull though enough to make it a better option than the other smart phones in its class? Well, at the end of the day, the answer usually depends upon your personal needs in a phone - but let’s take a look at some of the specific features that the Samsung Eternity offers to the end user, and see how those options stack up against the other devices on the market.
Let’s start with the bad. The downsides to this phone are similar to the weaknesses that the other Samsung touchscreen models have. First, there is no wifi connectivity. This might be tolerable if the built in 3G support was more reliable, but so far, it has proven to be pretty shaky, making it hard to sustain a reliable connection in many areas. Also, the Samsung Eternity lacks full email support, limiting you to partial messages or using a web-based solution through its web browser. For anyone interested in business-intensive use, this phone is not completely ruled out, but the lack of wifi is an immediate deal breaker for many. These business oriented users will most likely end up rushing straight to the latest model of Blackberry for its integrated enterprise solutions and built-in wireless internet that is easy to use.
The 3 megapixel camera is crisp, clear, and offers pictures that compare to the quality from many expensive standalone digital cameras. In tests, the Samsung Eternity’s built in camera has blown most other phones entirely out of the water. When looking at the picture by itself, the Eternity is one of the few cameras that can produce a picture so clear that it legitimately does not appear to be from a phone. While many cameras offer high resolution photos, most of the time they still produce a noisy, grainy or washed-out image that looks to be either a still from a camcorder or, more obviously, from a camera phone. Not here. The eternity won’t disappoint in this department.
