While Sony Ericsson has a Satio available in early Q4, Samsung will send out its world first 12 megapixel camera to Europe by end of June this month. Announced today, the Samsung Pixon12 M8910 shares the same design as Samsung Pixon, which is a 8 megapixel camera phone announced in September 2008. The new Pixon12 now uses a 12 megapixel camera sensor, 28mm wide angle lens, Xenon flash and a 3.1-inch AMOLED screen.

The Samsung Pixon12 enables users to take perfect pictures quickly and easily, thanks to a Dedicated Camera Power Key which gives users fast one-touch access to the camera function. Samsung Pixon12 also features fast image saving for next shot, auto scene detection and Touch Auto-Focus (AF) tracking where you can simply select focus point with the touch of a finger, after which the AF function will automatically follow the object, keeping it in focus even as it moves across the screen.

With Samsung Share Pix, the Pixon12 lets users easily upload images and videos to popular social networking sites such as Facebook, Picasa, Flickr, MySpace, Photobucket, Friendster. Add to that, the phone’s high-connectivity functions including Wi-Fi and HSUPA capabilities mean that user’s photos can be shared to their friends in no time.

The Samsung Pixon12 will be available from end of June in European countries and it wil be expanded to other regions in August.
