This is a smartphone to tell your friends about. Available in 8-gigabyte or a 16-gigabyte version, either of which can support a further 16-gigabytes of memory, the Samsung i850 Innov 8 is a high-end phone you do not want to miss.
One of the main features of this little gem is an 8 MP camera with auto focus to ensure crisp and blur-free photos. A major advantage of such a feature is that you just point and shoot; it’s all so simple. There is a flash for those cloudy days and dark nights and a stabilising feature to neutralise small movements and make your photos ones that you can be proud of. More than that, it is easy to edit the finished pictures with software that is simple to understand and manipulate.
What you can do with the camera, can also be achieved with its video capabilities. It supports MP4, WMV, DivX, H264 and H264 and if you think you have what it takes to become a pro, you can edit the videos you have recorded and share them with your friends.
The Innov 8 can connect to the Internet using 3G HSDPA technology, which operates at broadband speeds. With its second camera, 3G video calling is possible and for other connectivity it has Wi-Fi, Class 10 EDGE, Bluetooth and USB.
The device is capable of multimedia messaging, text messaging, Instant Messaging and e-mail and runs on the popular Symbian Operating System, version 9.3, for a hassle-free experience. What’s more, the phone offers 8.5hours of talk time and 310hours of standby time.
Although the Samsung i8510 Innov 8 is a bit thick, at 17.2mm, it is packed with features that most of us could only dream of.
