Samsung i8510 Gets Real in NYC

Headphone jack placement is still in the most annoying spot (same as the N95). 8MP Sensor doesn’t automatically mean the pictures will look better than the N95/N82′s either. At least it’s Quad-band GSM though. Fugly design for sure, bring on the US 3G N96 please:)

Вчера в Нью-Йорке компания Samsung анонсировала свой флагманский мобильный телефон, претендующий на звание самого продвинутого S60-смартфона настоящего времени. Устройство станет первым телефоном Samsung с 8 Мп CMOS-модулем.

Sadly, the lack of US 3G kills it for me.

Looks really nice and hopefully a competitor to the Nokia’s smartphones.

Keeping eye on this one regarding the camera and also compatibility issues on the software side, not to mention the size of ram.

Everything else seems to be “fitting”, especially the bigger capacity on the battery and the internal + support of external memory.

All the other specs are also very up to date.

Was gladly waiting for the N96 but even though it has support for DVB-H it is useless for my country (Norway). Besides I bet that there’s DRM of some sort just allowing you to record a short snippet out of a TV-show with that function.
The only advantage then for me is the larger screen and memory, leading to a costly upgrade without providing much new.

Compared to the N96 the Samsung i8510 definitely looks better in terms of specifications, and it even got a shutter for the camera.

Almost forgot about N-gage. I guess that’s something I have to give up on if I decide to go for this device.

After reading and comparing I see that there’s also other things that are missing on this device, there’s no TV-out and lack of flash?

Would be very interesting to see this reviewed when it finally comes out.

(In mean time I guess I have to drool some more over the N96 as I’ve found that TV-out is great when playing N-gage games)

But if this phone is the same as the Samsung G810, where you have the S60 without the ability to install anything, I think I’ll pass…

[...] Samsung a prezentat de curand modelul i8510. Are 17 mm grosime, camera de 8MP, memorie interna de 16GB, dar si optiunea de adaugare a cardurilor de memorie, iar ecranul poate fi pictat in 16 milioane de culori. Mobilul e certificat DivX, asa ca poti pune filme la greu, ba chiar si subtitrari. Are Wi-Fi, Bluetooth si se conecteaza la retele de viteza mare, 3,5G prin HSDPA. O daaaaaa! Multumesc Symbian-Guru!

[...] Samsung has a new slider on the market in Europe and we’re hoping it finds its way over here. The i8510 is a S60-powered GSM phone with very fast 3G speeds and Wi-Fi, as well as GPS. What makes this high-end phone lust-worthy, though, is the 8 Megapixel multifunction camera with Xenon flash that can record video at up to 120 frames per second. It also has image stabilization and face recognition as well as other features. Couple that with Bluetooth 2 and 16GB of internal flash storage and you’ve got a serious, slim phone for T-Mobile users. And it looks really nice, too. [Symbian Guru] [...]

Yeah the 3.5mm jack is in a bad placement… I had trouble with the n95 as well. I ended buying Ultimate Ears Super.Fi 5 Pro because it has an flat L-shaped connector which sits nicely on the n95 and will serve well for the i8510. They sound great too :)

I’ve had one for about a week and my observations are:

1) It is actually considerably smaller than the pictures denote
2) Picture quality is surperb
3) Links to home braodband easily
4) A distinct lack of information, even the full userguide was missing from the samsung official site despite the quickstart guide pointing users towards samsungmobiles.com (but available elsewhere).
5) Pitifully few games available and you’d think that basics such as Tetris/Pacman/space invaders would be available.

Mark

US 3g doesnt matter to me since i only like to use wifi when its available. i gotta cut expenses somewhere. smaller callphone bill helps. i cant believe you think the design sucks. it could be better but it still looks great.

well after having one a few days i can say i’m impressed and also pi$$ed at it……….

you all know the good points so i’ll just quote the bad, battery life, poor, 6 hours etc on sat nav, i drive a 9 hour shift, so need a charger, not a great problem but….

music playback, speakers on the back, so you turn the phone over, music stops, like doh!

sat nav, no maps unless you pay an extra 49.95e, like why bother at all…

no decent tariff, if you get an iphone you get unlimited data for email etc, on this phone nothing, nada, rather short-sighted of all the operators

stupid stupid stupid non standard usb connector…

other than that, phones a gem.
