Phones4U has just taken delivery of the first 12MP cameraphone in the UK – the Samsung Pixon12!
According to Mobile Today, people going for a £45/month contract (18-month term) with Orange or Vodafone can get the device for free. I suppose that’s not too bad, particularly if you are hell-bent on taking super high-res pics! I personally wonder how good of a 12Mp image we are going to get from the device, and how deep the device is – in theory in should be chunky number to subsume all of the necessary optics. At any rate, users can apparently can 12Mp pics within 2 second of each other – which given that cameraphones have historically been terribly slow at processing the images they capture, is actually pretty darn good.
I hope to get a moment this week to try and find a Phones4U store that has a Pixon12 in stock – it’s the kind of the device the staff would want to show off I would think, so let’s hope it’s not too tricky – I might even find time to do a ‘five-minute fiddle’ review of it

Ben is a 10+ year veteran of the Mobile industry – starting his career when SMS was a still a relatively new concept for most people (!), he has now consulted on everything from bleeding-edge Mobile content, to the next-gen accessories you might view it on. As a result he has a broad and deep knowledge in numerous areas of Mobile – from network operators to device vendors, to infrastructure and middleware vendors (not to mention content delivery) – and has worked for companies in all of these areas! He is based in the UK, a hotbed of activity for mobile, and recently became a father for the second time – as oppose to in his younger years when he was happy spend time tweaking all manner of mobile devices to 'nth' degree, he now looks for services and hardware that provide the most efficient, compact, and reliable improvements to his already manic life! It’s his opinion that Mobile solutions should be there to help to make your life better – if a particular solution (be it service or device) isn’t doing this, he believes you need to ask the very important question of why you continue to use it... His focus at IntoMobile is mainly on Mobile content, services, and infrastructure, particularly as regards the UK market – and with the occasional look at devices. Additionally, using his extensive experience in the industry, he will provide commentary on the industry at large, with regular (and hopefully thought-provoking) articles.
