The guys over at all about symbian has published a hands-on preview of Samsung innov8 with 8 mega pixel camera. You can find the preview here
“The INNOV8 may not seem as if it has any major innovations, but it is the first S60 device with an 8 megapixel camera and manages to pack in a host of other hardware and features - it is right at the top of the current generation of phone technology. Previous Samsung S60 devices like the i550 and G810 felt like they were catching up with Nseries devices already on the market. By contrast the INNOV8, which should ship before the N96, will be putting a nose in front.
One of the things that struck me most about the INNOV8 is how quickly Samsung have evolved their S60 phones. The difference between the i520 and the INNOV8 is enormous. I suspect that, as we move into 2009, we’re going to see a lot more competition between Nokia and Samsung in the S60 space - and that can only be good for consumers.
It is impossible to provide a full assessment of a high device like the INNOV8 after an afternoon of hands-on time, but hopefully we’ve been able to give you a taste of this very impressive device. It should be out in the market by September and we’ll be revisiting the device before then in production hardware form, in a full multi-part review.
The INNOV8 looks set to become one of the most desirable phones for the second half of 2008 - apparently Steve’s beloved N95 8GB is already quaking in its case…”
