Samsung G810 awarded the European Photo Phone 2008-2009

Now this is strange. EISA’s (European Imaging and Sound Association) European Photo Phone award is usually reserved for Nokia (NYSE: NOK) phones, but this year it’s the Samsung G810 which got all the glory. Best of all (as far as Samsung is concerned), they’re using Nokia’s S60 platform for their baby.

We’ve already covered the G810 in the past. Let me just quickly recap the specs. The kick-ass device sports a 5 megapixel camera with 3x optical and 4x digital zoom and Xenon flash. In addition, Samsung’s smartphone features such digital camera technologies as face detection, image stabilizer, high ISO (up to 800), macro shot, panorama shot and mosaic and multi shot. Then there’s a GPS, WiFi, Bluetooth and much more on board… In a nutshell, we do agree with EISA’s decision. For now — until the phones with 8 megapixel cameras are released — the Samsung G810 is the best camera phone. Period!
