Today Samsung and TMobile announced the Samsung Memoir smartphone with an 8 megapixel camera. The device looks as much like a camera as a phone. It comes with a Xenon flash, 16x digital zoom, and five shooting modes. You can post your photos directly to your online Flickr, Photobucket, Snapfish, or Kodak Gallery.
It remains to be seen whether this is just more megapixel madness or the thing actually takes decent pictures. No one has yet produced a phone camera that can rival the features and quality of a $150 digital camera, but, of course, that $150 digital camera might not be with you when the phone will be. The press release and some shiny pictures of the camera can be found here.
