This is Samsung’s promo video for the upcoming M8800 cellphone (aka Pixon) with 8-megapixel camera. In fact it looks very much like a compact camera from the rear, and its 3.2-inch screen bears the same TouchWiz interface as the Omnia. That screen is a 400 x 240 pixel touchscreen with touch keyboard and handwriting recognition, and the phone has AGPS, accelerometer and FM radio. Read on for hands-on photos and full specs.

• Quad-band GSM, tri-band HSDPA

• 107.9×54.6×14.9mm, 110 g

• 3.2-inch touch screen display (240 x 400 pixels)

• 8 megapixel camera, auto focus, face recognition with smile detection and blink detection, WDR (wide dynamic range), ASR (advanced shake reduction), GPS geotagging, ISO 1600, WVGA (720×480 pixels) and VGA (640 x 480 pixels) @30fps video recording

• Built-in GPS receiver

• Accelerometer

• DivX playback

• FM radio with RDS

• microSD card slot

• Bluetooth

• Landscape virtual QWERTY keyboard

• Handwriting recognition

• ShoZu integration – direct image and video upload

Interestingly, there’s no mention of Wi-Fi in that list of specs. It’ll be out early November (in Russia, at least) for around $800. [ via GSMArena]
