1- wider lens
2- material quality of the product
3- better cpu and processings
is the issue of better quality after 5 mp or even 3 mp.
more than that will cause parasites that must be wiped out with phones software. a total waste.
A ideal camera phone to make with todays tech level
is a mixture of n95+viewty+iphone

to the post below:

do you mean the same apple that released a "high end phone" with a 2MP camera when the industry average for high end phones was 3MP? IF apple decides to release another phone, it most likely will not be a leader in the camera arena

To the poster below: Your Sony will not be obsolete. A 8MP phone will not beat an 8MP dedicated camera for some time yet. The quality of the shots you take with your Cybershot camera will be amazing compared to this.

I was sorta scared this would happen although i knew it would... so any ways 8 MP =| man its no fun whats the use of having my 8MP cybershot now... i donno i guess at times its just nice to take pictures from a camera than a camera phone...

p.s. i do know its a module and not the phone it self.

Why does everyone here assumed this is a cameraphone?

The title said

"World’s thinnest 8 megapixel CAMERAPHONE MODULE by Samsung"

quality... well, it'll be awful. it's just a "mpx rush", not a QUALITY rush. stupid marketing movement for bird-brian people. don't be naive. wanna (relatively) good camera in your cell - buy ONLY these equipped with AUTOFOCUS and MACRO MODE. 2mpx SE k750 will be better than this Samsung CRAP.

It may be nice that it's 8 megapixel, but the quality of the pics are probably crap.
