In Brief

Samsung SGH-G800 is Top Banana 5MP Cameraphone

The SGH-G800 is the last rumored wondergadget from Samsung, a compact camera with 5-megapixel sensor, 3x optical zoom and Xenon flash, which is better than LED-based ones. If confirmed, the G800 will also have one microSD slot, USB 2.0, Bluetooth 2.0 and a 2.4" 320 x 240 pixel screen. Plus a 3G phone attached too. Shocking. Jump to see the camera on its back.

The G800 should be quite comfy to carry around: It measures 4 x 2 x 0.66 inches. [PhoneArena]

It has optical zoom too, check the writing on the lense. AF 5.8 - 17.4 mm, so, it's not going to be too great for snapping shots of that girl in the apartment building across the street from you through your window while shes changing, but it does have optical zoom too. Hurrah. Optical zoom.

Samsung likes high-MP phones for non-US customers, I guess.
They already released a 10MP phone a year and a half ago [www.engadget.com]
Pretty impressive, I know

@Aram:
Sprint will have NO GSM phones coming out on it's network, because Sprint is CDMA. Do you even know your own network?

The new 5 megapixel camera maybe even better than the nokia n95. It has not been given and actual release date nor has it been given an official design. Not much information is available this is why i suggest you visit, www.samsungg800.com to find out additional information and reviews. This site also offers great phone deals.
