Sony Ericsson Satio vs. Samsung Pixon12: 12MP shootout - read the full textA year's truce must've been enough and some heavyweight sharpshooters are called to arms again. In fact, there's never been a ceasefire in the battle for profit. But we're about to look at the future of cameraphones and the battle to take place is more for glory than anything else.

Excellent indepth review; and easy to understand!

Lens cover, image gallery experience, 35mm lens wins the vote for me. Also I think Satio hardware looks much better. :)

My vote: Satio

Pixon's design looks so old and dated. Ugly.

The Samsung has an exposed camera lens. Good luck in taking quality photos when that is scratched! SE wins it for me here, because FW updates will improve the camera software (compare the N86 before and after it's updates for comparison) and that the OS MORE than makes up for any shortfalls the camera has.

great review guys!! :)

i've been using SE for quite some time now, but recently moved to LG because SE's Cybershots are not up to expectations these days. :(
but satio might win my loyalty back to SE. now let see if the price drop in a few months, i might (able to) buy it. :p

SOME edge softness? Try a lot! The lens in the Samsung is surprisingly superior.

I guess this is a positive situation. It means that the sensors in camera-phones are getting good enough to actually compare lenses. I don't think we've every been really able to do that.

4:4... nice review... but i think satio has the edge over pixon... Consider it is a smartphone and also compare the other features of the 2 phones... satio is clearly the winner... but for the price samsung is cheaper... well it depends on other people... as we said there's no end to technologies... MWC2010 is near and lots lots of Phone Companies will also release their aces...
