Samsung Mobile has strengthened its foothold in the multimedia phone segment by launching the Samsung INNOV8 - an 8 MP camera phone, in the Indian market. Focusing on mobile handset photography and a richer multimedia experience, Samsung INNOV8 offers high-end camera technologies, a surround-sound cinematic video experience, the best mobile internet browsing experience and mobile gaming capabilities.

Some of the high-end camera features that are integrated in the Innov8 are imaging applications such as smile shot, blink shot and face recognition, letting you capture your precious moments in great quality. Users can also personalize and edit their photos, videos and music within Movie Maker and Story Board applications. The Innov8 can also act as a digital photo frame, allowing the user to display their favorite image. Its crystal clear 2.8-inch screen capable of displaying 16 million colors is designed to provide the best photography, video and gaming experience on-the-go.

It comes with a whopping 32 GB memory, the highest we have seen in a mobile phone, thanks to 16 GB internal and a 16 GB MicroSD card. You have sufficient storage for just about anything now. The 1200 mAh battery provides enough battery life to completely watch many movies back to back. The Innov8 supports a wide range of video player formats including DivX, WMV, Real Player and MPEG4, allowing you to get a truly exciting cinema experience just about anywhere right out of your pocket. It has external dual speakers and 3D surround sound supported by DNSe 2.0 to make every video and movie as realistic as can possibly be.

Samsung Innov8 is excellent for mobile web browsing. With an optical mouse and 4-way navigation key, users can enjoy PC-like browsing experience. Equipped with both HSDPA high speed Internet and WiFi connection, the users are offered convenient and seamless Internet experience wherever they are.

It is also equipped with A GPS technology to offer navigational and geotagging services. The phone OS is the new Symbian OS V9.3, S60 3rd Edition Feature Pack 2, which means that you always have the option to download from amongst a myriad of applications available for Symbian mobiles.

Samsung has made sure that the Innov8 will start entertaining you out-of-the-box by including two full movies of Aamir Khan, who is the company's brand ambassador. The Innov8 will also not leave gamers dissatisfied. Asphalt - a racing game and FIFA 08 - a soccer game are the two games that come pre-installed to get things started. The Samsung Innov8 is currently priced at Rs.45,999, which is not really a surprise for such a phone.

Hi! You would have done justice to the phone and the reputation of yr site if you had also written about downsides of the phone...The write primarily looks like an advert by Samsung.

FIFA 08 is not a racing game as written in your report but its a soccer game.

Thanks for bringing the goofup to our notice. We have made the necessary changes.
