Samsung’s new SGH-G800 is a manifestation of its ceaseless quest for perfection in performance and style. Sleek and beautiful, this powerful mobile caters to the entertainment seeker. Its crowning achievement is its ultra imaging functionality; the embedded 5 Megapixel camera with 3X Optical inner zoom captures the art of your eye in a still photograph or video film. An embedded music player and mobile blogging features further expand the mobile experience.
The G800 is definitely not among the smallest phones on the market: even closed it is a solid device almost as big a stand-alone pocket camera and it highly resembles one by its look. With its serious weight it is almost as heavy too, which combined with the chromed frame makes it feel as a nice high-end phone instead of a plastic toy. For this also helps that the lens-cover and a detail on the battery cover are made of brushed aluminum.
The camera offers an auto focus assist lamp, a xenon flash, face detection and image stabilization. We can say without exaggerating, that the Samsung G800’s camera is currently the most advanced camera inside a mobile phone. The possibility to zoom in three times optically enhances the photographic possibilities. This way distant objects can be captured without any quality loss. This is a true advantage compared to the competitors with digital zoom.”
The menu’s are easy to navigate and are clear to read, this is purely because the font is “very large” when compared with other phones of the same type. The system sounds are good and the speaker is fairly clear. Loud though it is not. The bluetooth menu is obscure, it is located in the memory card settings sub menu.
