The new 8-megapixel touchscreen camera from Samsung has been officially announced by the Korean-based company — Samsung S8300 UltraTOUCH.

2.8 inch, 240 x 400 pixels, OLED touchscreen
Accelerometer sensor
Proximity sensor for auto turn-off
80 MB shared memory
up to 16GB microSD
HSDPA, 7.2 Mbps
Bluetooth 2.0
8 MP (3264×2448 pixels) autofocus camera, video(VGA@30fps) with flash
Secondary videocall camera
Built-in GPS with A-GPS support
Stereo FM radio with RDS

I wonder why Samsung skipped the WiFi capability. That’s gonna turn off *a lot* of people. It’s a bit on the slim side though, at 12.7mm. 

This model is somewhat similar to the LG Secret. Price and availability is TBA.

    Omnia is much better than this. No wifi??? But i like this phone having a keypad underneath it and it’s not running on Windows if im not mistaken.. Looks promising. :)

    With regards to the keypads, its a lot better than Samsung Omnia, Omnia has a hard capacitive.. But you guys are right, what’s the use of this kind of touch phone if it doesn’t have a Wi-Fi connectivity…

    Yep, it’s really disappointing and puzzling, they didn’t put in Wi-Fi capability on such a phone. What were they thinking?!
