With new 7 megapixel phones to be released by Samsung at the end of this year, what kind of an impact will it have on the digital camera market?
Cell phones are becoming significantly more powerful and seem to be heading in the direction of an all-in-one device which could eventually rival computers, given the advances being made in miniaturization.

Depends on the relative price, but shouldn't this thread go in the tech discussion?

My friend is the designer for the 7 mega-pixel Samsung phone. She made the 5 mega one that costs about 1 million won.

I bought the nearly 5 mill pixel LG latest model last fall for about 750,000 won. It also has a two-hour video capability.

It's as much quality as I'll ever need out of a digital camera phone: better than used in newspapers, adequate for most magazines.

all these new high priced phones have great features.... the only problem being that the designs are so f'n ugly. The best looking phone on the market has to be the original startac... get rid of those ugly silver phones... line up some all black ones

A guy I know paid 1,000,000 won for the same phone when it first hit the market. You got a steal of a deal. Cool

Some of the colors are a bit 'out there' but a large majority are decent.

What's wrong with silver? Beats the hell out of pink. Wink
