Samsung INNOV8 Features
When you talk about features of the Samsung INNOV8 the first thing that will immediately jump out at you is obviously the 8 megapixel digital camera. How could it not? It’s been dubbed the best camera phone on the market so we’ll hit this point first:
8 Megapixel Camera
While many feature phones such as the iPhone 3G and Samsung Instinct weighing in with 2 megapixel cameras, the INNOV8 quadruples your picture taking capabilities with a whopping 8 megapixels of power. The pictures that you take with the INNOV8 will be crisp and clear with a level of detail that is up to now non existent in the cell phone industry.
There are a load of advanced photo options such as auto focus, LED Flash, face recognition, smile and blink recognition, auto panorama mode and geotagging. The phone’s onboard GPS capabilities are used for Geotagging pictures, meaning they are automatically encoded to show the exact location and time your photo was taken - useful when sharing with social networking websites and online photo albums.
Digital Camcorder/Video
The i8510 INNOV8 is capable of QVGA video at up to 120 frames per second and VGA-resolution video at up to 30 frames per second, with a full video editing suite on board. If you thought the pictures were clear wait until you see the amazing video that can be created with the INNOV8.
An example of “extra touches” for the camcorder is extra slow motion recording - but like many of the features in the editing suite - you’ll have to try it for yourself to experience its awesomeness (hint: sports fans?)
Multimedia Memory
Crystal clear images and stunning video take up a lot of memory - they are large files - so how can one little phone hold it all? Well, the Samsung INNOV8 is available in 8GB and 16GB versions, allowing you to get the most out of your handset with a huge amount of internal memory. This 16GB capacity is included INSIDE the phone… no need to buy/add/plug-in anything at all.
As if that weren’t enough, the INNOV8 has a MicroSD slot allowing you to add another extra 8GB of memory with the purchase of a MicroSD memory card. Geez… are you getting the feeling this thing is like a computer in your pocket? It is! (and a good looking one, too!)
Music / Audio
How could we have discussed multimedia and forgotten about music? Well the INNOV8 hasn’t forgotten about a think and the device is packed with a built-in FM Radio, 3D surround sound and the always appreciated 3.5mm headphone jack. If you’re the wireless headphones type you’ll be happy to know the INNOV8 is Bluetooth 2.0 capable with A2DP so those wireless headphones WILL work.
Touch Screen
The INNOV8 has a gorgeous touch screen with a built in accelerometer allowing you to hold the phone at different angles with your view changing between portrait and landscape to accommodate your preference. The display boasts a 2.8″ screen with the capability to display 16.7 million colors via QVGA TFT and 320×240 pixel resolution.
Mobile Games
The accelerometer plays nicely with mobile games. Not only can you PLAY 3D games but it comes with FIFA 2008 which… if you haven’t played it before, you’ll love. The optical mouse and 4 way directional pads aren’t only great for gaming but also use with your phone’s normal functions.
So Much More
Experts around the globe are calling the INNOV8 a “multimedia powerhouse” and these make up its most exciting elements. But, you’ll be impressed and surprised at how “complete” the experience is. There isn’t a thing that Samsung didn’t think about when putting together this masterpiece.
From the menus, sleek look and ease of navigation to the speed, connectivity and multimedia dominance, the Samsung INNOV8 will make you apprecate the big picture without forgetting about the details.
The Samsung INNOV8 is the Best Camera Phone ever made… it’s no Deb8!
