Samsung UltraTouch S8300
Feb 10, 2009 gps navigation, phones, samsung

We first talked about Samsung S8300 at the end of 2008. Today Samsung made the S8300 official, and wants us to call it Samsung UltraTOUCH S8300. Ultra Touch S8300 is a slider phone with AMOLED touch screen that measures 2.8 inches. The biggest feature that sticks out with Samsung S8300 -besides integrating an A-GPS receiver- is its 8MP digital camera. Some people may suggest this is good enough for you to get rid of your standalone digital camera but I don’t agree. I’m not ready to quit my Canon. When is Canon going to start making phones?
Anyhow. Here are some more specs and features from Samsung UltraTouch S8300:
- HSDPA 7.2Mbps
- measures: 110 x 51.5 x 12.7mm
- anti-scratch screen
- 3×4 keypad slider
- dual power LED flash
- GPS navigation
- geo-tagging
- video recording at 30fps
No news on when this will be available here in the U.S. or for how much just yet… via

There is no GPS navigation included. There is a receiver, but not software to pinpoint your location on map nor can it direct you from A to B.
