Better than Sony Ericsson 8.1 megapixel phone? Samsung has just launched the Inner Zoom SCH-W480 slider phone in Korea. The slider phone is shaped like a digital camera, it comes with a 5-megapixel CCD camera, together with a 3x optical inner zoom lens.
With a Inner Zoom lens design, the camera lens do not extend out and is able to keep the phone thickness minimum. It also supports auto-focus and face detection. Other than a nice optical zoom camera lens, it can also do 7.2 Mbps HSDPA, WCDMA/GSM global roaming, Bluetooth, media player and accept microSD memory card.
The Inner Zoom SCH-W480 will be available at about 580 USD. More photos at next page.
Samsung is coming up so many good mobile phones, its just impossible not to be a hit.
I’m waiting for a phone with 10 X optical zoom and good video and big memory to really compete with the camera I have now.
