Samsung M8800 Pixon review: Touch'n'shoot - read the full textSamsung M8800 Pixon gets its kick from touchscreen and imaging and hopes to be the definitive cameraphone. The inspired TouchWiz interface and massive screen are the right gateway to getting the 8 megapixel camera and real high-end video unleashed...

Got my phone yesterday. Still figuring out how it works, but can anyone tell me how (and if it's possible!) to minimize applications to use more than one at once?

Thanks!

By the way, is the screen plastic or glass? Is it scratch resistant or easily prone for scratches?

I've had the M8800 for about a month now, its a great alrounder, GPS, high res cam, emails, sms, quad, bigscreen. Only problem with it is the plastic touch screen, (i've also an i touch and the glass like scren performs far better) also its easly dented. There also seems to be a problem with the reception in Dublin, seems to loose signal now and again. Looking into this problem possibly a new phone issue...so i'll hopefully update you soon. For the money, I'd recommend it at the moment.

read from the review that not all xvids and divxs can be played by this phone.

Is it possible to update the codecs of this phone?
How about rejection of the file because it has "too high bitrate"? what is that all about?

thanks

I got the Pixon and sometimes it sucks it lacks WiFi, cause I could use Wifi in the train, at school and many places outside...

Samsung really needs to fix the cam. Pixon's camera takes great details in the center. The rest of it is off focused. Come on samsung.

Does anyone know how well the GPS reciever works. If I need a navigation device similar to that of Nokia 6110/20 is this as good?

What's the big thing about WiFi in phones anyways?
I know a few people with it and they only use it at home due to the lack of decent wifi access points in public places...

Getting mine in a couple of weeks...love it!
