Remember the Samsung Bresson M8800? Samsung has officially announced it today, not Bresson but called the Pixon. Samsung M8800 is the first Pixon series with high megapixel camera.

The Samsung Pixon M8800 is a Quadband GSM phone that comes with HSDPA connectivity and built-in GPS but no WiFi.

The built-in GPS can only be used in geo-tagging your photo, you can’t use it for GPS navigation. The 8.0-megapixel camera module is capable of doing video recording in either 720×480 pixels (30 FPS), VGA (30 FPS) or QVGA (120 FPS) resolution. A flash LED has been equipped so you can take good picture in dark places.

Samsung will start shipping its M8800 as early as 10 November 2008 at a starting price of 550€, approximately $800.
