    11. E-mail functionality - Connection type: POP3, SMTP and IMAP4. Setting the e-mail accounts is done through e-mail wizard in a few steps. However, it must be the SMTP and POP3 server which is to be done manually. The downloading of the settings runs very fast and hardly takes any time.

Business Results - The quad-band mobile phone with HSUPA / HSDPA 7.2, EDGE, UMTS and Bluetooth is used for extremely fast data transfer. 2 to 3 days battery duration is still acceptable for the Pixon12 with its extensive facilities. The battery life can be minimally increased, if under Settings - Display and light and the brightness is somewhat reduced. Calendar, profiles and contacts correspond to the usual standard, and are not to criticize. It is unfortunate, once again, the note function comes with only 100 characters per note. The voice recorder leaves in the background audible noise, and therefore lets us down - from a high-tech phones we would have expected much more here. The email account can be set using the Email Wizard easily, though, the SMTP and POP3 servers are entered by hand. The retrieval of mail including attachments is very fast. Finding and opening web pages is done fairly quickly thanks to HSDPA. Pixon12 also has 7 games for entertainment (unfortunately only demo versions) and various other features, which enhance the Samsung GT-M8910.

    2. Camera quality - In daylight and normal lighting conditions the camera of the Pixon12 achieved exceptionally good results. The sharpness is very high, not even small details escapes from the camera. The colors are reproduced full, dynamic and authentic. At night, the camera can also score points. The representation of the motif is almost identical to the photographed object and is hardly influenced by the darkness. As I said, a previously unseen quality of camera phones will be offered to the proud Pixon12-owners, thanks to the powerful xenon flash.

    3. Video equipment - Normal, a limitation for MMS, slow motion, photo light: Auto, On, Off, EV compensation: -2 to +2; settings: Focus Mode: Autofocus, Face Detection, Self-timer: off, 2, 5, 10 seconds; Resolution: WVGA 720x480, 640x480, 320x240, 176x144, White Balance: Auto, Daylight, Incandescent, Fluorescent, Cloudy, effects: no, black / white, Sepia, Negative, Antique, sharpener, Automatic contrast: on / off, video quality: Fine, Normal, Economy Adjusting; : contrast, saturation, sharpness, guides: on / off, Record Audio: on / off, Memory: Phone, Memory Card, Reset; Finishing options: Send via: Message, Email, Exchange ActiveSync, Bluetooth, upload to the Web; Options: Details: name, format, resolution, size, routing, date created on / around, place, Resolution: 176x144, 320x240, 640x480, 720x480; video title Open audio tracks, additional audio tracks; file to import image import video, import audio, video recording, record sound, edit,: Cutting, Copying: selected, all, cut, delete, selected, all, delete the location, play parts, film and point for the division select Paste; Text.

    4. Video Quality - Under normal lighting conditions, colors are sharp and bright. Even if you make faster movements, the pixels veil barely visible. In the darkness, you can achieve fine results, if one goes closer to the subject. But only in low light it looks a lot better. The color scheme is partially mitigated to minimal, but very clearly visible. Not a single mobile phone video camera has achieved so far convincing result in the dark as that of the Pixon12. Even the 720p-capable camera in the Samsung i8910HD is not as sensitive to light.

    5. Equipment to built in music player - All songs, playlists, recently played, most often played, Recently Added, Artists, Albums, Genres, Composers, Podcast, Playlist: News, Library, send by: Message, Email, Exchange ActiveSync, Bluetooth options: Set as: call sign for voice call, call sign for video call, caller ring tone, alarm; details: name, format, size, routing, date created on / around, place, artist, title, album, length of the title, genre, recording date, recording date, description, number of the title, format, settings: Background music: on / off, normal sound effects:, Rock, Jazz, Live, Classic, Mega Bass, Concert Hall, Wow HD, bass boost, music clarity, externalization; Visualization: Type 1, 2, 3; Music menu: playlists, recently played, most often played, Recently Added, Artists, Albums, Genres, Composers, podcast, which can be easily added or removed to free choice.

    6. Sound quality of the music player - The MP3 player with DNSe 2.0 ™ and 5.1ch surround sound with SRS prima playback is convincing. However, only when the mobile phone sets to the display. Highs and lows sound bright and clear. Songs with too much bass sound minimal overridden. Even the built-in equalizer can easily create a remedy and refine the songs. This can be found under Options Preferences, sound effects.

    7. Radio yes / no, sound quality radio - Channel Record:, music recognition, search, manually set frequency, settings: Background music: on / map out; SenderID: on / off; alternative frequency: on / off, radio text: on / off, Recording Quality: High, Normal, Low, Standard designation; AF: on / off, headset or speakers add to your favorites; channels places are abundant. Unfortunately we can not add channel name. Music recognition goes very quickly and the images are too highly praised. The individual stations are given in good, almost with noise-free quality.

    8. Memory Storage - 200 MB internal - expandable up to 16GB. Would be desirable for at least 4 GB of internal memory.

    9. Multimedia Results - The settings of the camera are easy to find and act just after a short time. These are effective and of superior quality in results, certainly convinced critic for camera phone. The results are to be commended in daylight and at night, very much. Clearly and simply one can also use the built-in MP3 player. Playlists are created quickly and easily. The sound is not to be criticized, even though the speaker is located on the back. The operation of the radio is very easy to use. This wealthy enough channels scores with almost noiseless sound. Sorry, no station name can be stored. The mobile phone has an internal memory of 200 MB and is also expandable up to 16GB.

    Overall Conclusion

    The Samsung Pixon12 GT-M8910 Mobile Phone


    Its powerful 12 MP Camera

    The Samsung Pixon12 GT-M8910 offers a barely average market price wit excellent facilities. Its appearance is elegant and also in detail, the phone knows to convince consumers with high quality. But if we consider the reverse, we could keep the Pixon for a digital camera directly. The 12 MP camera delivers excellent results - the Pixon12 here is the new frontier. In the dark it can score points as well as by the day. Colors and shapes are displayed exactly the same. The statement from Samsung "detail and sharpness are played in an unprecedented quality of camera phones", we hereby wish to confirm. At other points, criticism is neglectable. The internal memory of 200 MB is sufficient for user data, but much too small for a mobile phone in this price range. Thanks to Micro SD card storage capacity which can be easily expandable to 16GB. The music player can convince with good sound, though its speaker is mounted on the back. At the turning over of mobile phones the sound is improved significantly. The radio with channel scan does not have great graphic design, must hide but under no aural perspective, of course, is nearly noise-free. The intuitive operation via touch screen allows easy handling of all mobile phones. With HSDPA 7.2, UMTS, EDGE and WLAN, Internet pages are loaded very quickly and with a sharp, true color display prima is visible. Even emails can be easily downloaded and are very easy to read. The Samsung Pixon12 in price, although in the upper class, in view of the performance profile, but you can safely watch the price was justified. For the demanding user, the Pixon12 is beautiful, stylish and also a powerful companion for all aspects of daily life.

    Re: Samsung Pixon12 GT-M8910 12 megapixel Mobile Phone

    I bought this phone and had it for about 3 months and to me it was really a great mobile phone with good camera features though with some light it can create some clear and amazing photos. It also had great wifi and easy to use interface but all of a sudden it started to overheat itself due to which the phone started to shut down. I even took it to the service but it was declared that it wont work, so all in all it was a total loss for such a pretty phone.
