Samsung i8510 INNOV8 Smartphone


And yet its another mobilephone review, but I just have to tell you this one!

Nokia totally dominated the sales last year and their Nokia N95 was the ground breaking best seller phone in 2007. Now it's Samsung's turn. Featuring the newest Samsung i8510 INNOV8 3G SmartPhone. This is phone has the newest, most up-to-date, high end feature in mid 2008. It literally has everything in today's mobile phone can ever hold. From AGPS function to the jaw dropping 8 megapixel camera! It's stunningly beautiful, top end and amazingly fast. This Smartphone is just sick! (in a good way)

To save money, consider getting a Samsung i8510 INNOV8 with a free gift deal instead of buying it on the high street. This phone is bound to have a very high price, getting a free line rental contract with free PS3 is still pricey even though it's a good bargain, but considering what you get out of it, it certainly is worth it. Let's see what the Samsung i8510 INNOV8 has in stored for us.

Design:

The Samsung i8510 INNOV8 is power feature phone but unlike the N95, its a very slim phone, not bulky at all!
  • It is only 106.5 x 53.9 x 17.2 mm and feels solid weighing 140 grams.
  • The i8510 is a slider phone, looks like the N95 but slimmer and thinner.
  • The screen quality of the i8510 is brilliant, it a 2.8 inch 16 million color TFT screen in 240 x 320 pixels resolution! Neat!
  • The casing has a metallic glossy cover, very sleek and attractive.

Camera:

  • The i8510 is has an 8 megapixel camera quality, very tempting indeed.
  • It has an auto focus, flash and image stabilizer made to capture perfect pictures.
And of course it has a Video Recorder.

Multimedia:

One word, MONSTER.
  • It's got a video player that supports MP4, WMV, H263 , H264 and DivX!
  • The Music Player can play MP3, WMA, AMR, eAAC+ and Audio!
  • It wouldn't be complete with FM Radio in RDS!
  • You can delete or add a clip to your recorded videos via Video Editing.

Memory and battery:

It wouldn't be called a monster if it doesn't have a powerful memory!
  • It has 8/16 GB internal memory! I don't know if people need that massive of a memory.
  • And even if that's not enough, you can add 8 gigs more using its MicroSD support!
  • Since it's got an awesome multimedia and memory, it wouldn't be practical if it doesn't have the battery power. And guess what.. It's got a whooping 310 hrs standby time or 8 hrs and 30 mins maximum talk time!


Calling and Messaging:

You think it's only good for multimedia? Think again!

  • It has Video Calling feature in 3G HSDPA! Very fast and smooth.
  • You can call almost anywhere in the world as the Samsung i8510 has Quad Band technology utilizing GSM 850, GSM 900, GSM 1800 and GSM 1900, plus HSDPA!
  • The i8510 has MMS and SMS support, no problem at all.
  • You can receive and send Email.
  • It's got a Predictive Text functionality. Some people (esp business users) would be turned off by this because they are used to the full QWERTY keypad. However, once you get used to, you can type as fast or maybe even faster than a phone with full QWERTY keypad.


Internet:

Yes, the Samsung i8510 INNOV8 haven't finished dominating the features yet. As you can guess, the phone is also a high powered Internet connecting device. It has the fastest technologies rigged inside to deliver excellent mobilephone Internet experience. 3G HSDPA, that means this phone is 5x faster than current commercial 3G networks! Comparable to broadband DSL or ADSL service and that is just frik'n awesome.


Notable applications:
  • GPS Receiver- directions, what else?!
  • AGPS Function - useful in highly urbanized environments, tall buildings can create urban canyons, making it more difficult for the GPS receiver to obtain a position lock. Makes GPS even powerful.

Processing:

Now for a Smartphone, fast processing is a must, you wouldn't want to have delays even if you're just a casual user now would you?
  • The Samsung i8510 INNOV8 has a 128 Mbytes RAM, dedicated to in processing the heavy applications.
  • The phone runs on Symbian Operating System Version 9.3 Series 60. Fast and efficient, overated? Nah...

So, what do we have here? A super phone from Samsung. It almost has everything you need on a Smartphone. A very capable phone that everyone will drool over.
