#polaroid im1836

Back in December, Sakar International was allegedly working on an Android MILC which is dubbed as Polaroid iM1836. Contrary to early reports, the Polaroid iM1836 will actually run on Android Jelly Bean, not ICS. Instead of going with the traditional way of doing things wherein the sensor is found in the camera’s body, the IM1836’s 18MP sensor is actually placed on the lens. This sensor placement, according to Polaroid, lessens the possibility of having dusts on the sensor whenever a user mounts a different lens. The Polaroid iM1836 is expected to hit the shelves within this quarter and its price (body + kit lens) is pegged at USD399. There’s been a rumor making its round in the web recently regarding Polaroid’s plan of unveiling an Android-powered camera. But Polaroid has a trick up its sleeve to differentiate itself from the other manufacturers who’ve already integrated Google’s platform to their respective cameras. Dubbed as IM1836, this alleged compact camera is said to run on Ice Cream Sandwich and sports an 18MP sensor, 3.5-inch display and built-in flash.
