The Samsung innov8 is Samsung’s latest multimedia phone that boasts an 8MP camera and pretty much all the other bells and whistles you can find in today’s multimedia phone. What sets it apart is .. well … a Samsung real estate finish so you really have to expect nothing less than elegance.
The Samsung innov8 is basically a trump card to Nokia’s N82 as it has all the features (except Xenon flash) and a huge memory boost. And yeah, this is probably built on Nokia’s S60 platform as well.
Some specs:
Huge screen
8MP camera
Music playback
3.5mm audio jack
FM radio
Bluetooth
WiFi
16GB internal memory + expansion capabilities
But wait, there’s more! Press Release says:
Samsung innov8 is also ideal for enthusiastic gamers. It comes pre-embedded with two of the world’s most famous games, Asphalt and FIFA 08. The handset has been chosen as the official phone for the World Cyber Games 2008, which begins on 25th July.
Interesting on many levels. Asphalt and FIFA 2008 are N-Gage titles and we know so well that Samsung licenses the S60 platform from Nokia. As to the extent of the “Samsung OS hack” we need to see a live unit to figure this out. All I’m saying is that if the N-Gage platform can extend to all S60 powered phones regardless of brand, then that would be really cool. It would also imply that the other features such as Share on Ovi can, in the future, be integrated with these third party manufacturers that have S60 built in as the operating system.
