Samsung Behold Review

Phone Arena reviews the Samsung Behold for T-Mobile. It is a touch screen mobile phone with a 5-megapixel camera and good array of multimedia features...

Samsung M8800L Pixon is coming to the US

The Samsung M8800 was introduced in Europe as an 8 megapixel camera phone. It's pretty much a digital camera with a cellular phone which is quite different to having a phone with a camera. Why is it different? Because Samsung M8800L Pixon 8 megapixel camera phone takes really clear and crisp pictures that you won't even believe those photos are taken by a camera phone and not a real digital camera!

Since it arrived in Europe, the M8800 is like a dream, so close to having it but you just can't have it... at least not yet. Now, thanks to AT&T the Samsung M8800 is going to the U.S. as the Samsung M8800L. It has AT&T 3G and has 850 MHz and 1900 MHz WDCMA bandwidth which is what sets it apart from the Europe's M8800 version.

It was rumored before that Samsung M8800 will be going to the U.S. in partnership with T-Mobile so don't be shocked to find out it's not under T-Mobile, after all it was just a rumor. Hopefully AT&T will be giving a good price for this mobile phone so more Americans can afford it. No word as to how much it would cost yet so we better stay tuned.
