The Pixon’s touch moves may not be as fluid as the Apple iPhone 3G but the touchscreen is still receptive to your taps and swipes. But our ticklish concerns take back seat to the Pixon photographic prowess with the eight megapixel shutterbug taking...

How can you have a flashy phone with no Xenon flash?
Screen gets smudged easily
Interface/function navigation takes a bit of getting used to
As a leading camphone
The absence of a Xenon flash is mystifying. Its dual LED is too hit and miss to be consistently effective in low lighting conditions making this Xenon no show even more galling. Similarly
Abstract: We are back in 8-megapixel land again with Samsung's oddly named Pixon, also known as the M8800. Having given Recommended awards to the first two 8-megapixel handsets I've seen, Samsung's own i8510 Innov8 and LG's Renoir KC910 the Pixon has some pressure ...
We really loved the Samsung F480 and we were more than happy to welcome its successor. Now, if you look at it that way, upgrading the Tocco is a serious task but the Pixon seems well up to it. Its true though that quad-band GSM support and acceleromet...
Great video playback capabilities, 8MP camera with good quality, Quality music player, Good overall functionality
Weak web browser, Poor flash, No color schemes, Not a smartphone
Samsung has chosen the right direction for development of their touchscreen phones. The experiments with the Croix interface were not successful so the company had to follow the trends. Colors were added to the menus, but neither the software nor the ...

Feature rich camera functions make this phone ideal for snapping quality photos , Equipped with HSDPA ,Thin construction in spite of the enhanced camera features ,
No Wi-Fi capability ,Talk time is not anything special, just adequate ,
All in all, the Samsung Pixon-M8800 is a solid phone that will provide most of the usual features that people have come to expect. The great camera and related features is the real selling point of this unit. If you need a phone with the best camera p...
Slim and lightweight, video format support, good camera (single shot and video), good audio, TV-Out, widgets, smooth and simple interface
Battery life, partial multi-tasking, poor bundle, no Wi-Fi, GPS
The world of camera phones was hit by the 8MP fever a while ago. We have already seen the INNOV8 from Samsung, which we really liked, even though it was expensive. We have also seen Sony Ericssons 8MP camera phone - the C905. The phone was impressive...
UI is very responsive, Plenty of great net technology and features, Great Camera, Music quality is good
Photo Browser section is innovative but could have been better, Battery didnt seem too good, Music and video players volume could have been a little louder, Lacks Wi-Fi, free games, Didnt come with a memory card
ConnectivityExcept for Wi-Fi, the Pixon is equipped with everything else - Bluetooth with A2DP for wireless audio streaming and file transfer, USB 2.0 for data transfer from the PC, EDGE and GPRS for internet access and 3G (with HSDPA) for when that be...
Good image quality; novel imaging features; bundled with 8GB microSDHC card.
No Wi-Fi; limited screen estate for widgets; sluggish camera interface.
The Pixon is an excellent choice if you are in the market for a touchscreen camera-phone which produces image quality that can rival midrange compact digicams.
