I've recently had the pleasure of playing with the phones in the image below. Each has its own 'wow' factor.

This video shows off some of the Pixon12's key features such as its 3.1 AMOLED screen, 28mm wide lens and Touch Auto-Focus (AF) tracking features. You can't see this in the video but the phone has a solid build and a comfortable size. I think it gives a lot of dedicated (consumer) cameras a run for their money.

As Dumidu has already mentioned here on the blog as well as sites like Engadget Mobile, Samsung has announced a 12MP phone. Not too long long ago we were gob-smacked by 8MP on the Innov8 then later the Pixon in the Samsung line.

A quick word with Brett Loubser from the Samsung Mobile team has revealed that the M8910 is aiming to be the first 12MP camera phone launched in the world, first in Europe and will make its way to South Africa later (before the end of the year).

The Samsung M8910 or "Pixon12" has a wide angle lens (28mm), which means that it's much easier to get great landscape style shots, and all without having to stand miles away to get all your friends in frame when you take shots of them.
