Samsung i8510 INNOV8 Review
Perhaps the exuberance is comparable to the one that swept of American handgun enthusiasts off their feet; the sensation the Beretta Cougar created way back in the late 90s. However, that’s for us hard nuts but even the people on the softer side have an equal right to enjoy sensations. So, out came the first mobile phone from Samsung, with a 8Mega Pixel camera. Question remains on its performance and acceptability.
Operating on a Symbian 9.3 / S60 v3.2 OS, the i8510 has a big brain that you may extend to 16 GBs and the best part is, you don’t require a hell lot a room for the memory card; being a microSD, it cuddles up in a corner of the main casing. However, to music buffs, even 16 GB gets spent like kilobytes; therefore, if you are just looking for a mobile phone to talk and to listen to music, buy the gadgets separately; it shall work out cheaper. However, you can’t achieve two separate gadgets within 136 grams.

But to the people targeting the Nokia N95, the i8510 is a smarter choice. Chunky and black with just double the memory of the N95, it’s also a lot tougher than what inspired it barring the bottom. The mere plastic seems to be retiring if it somehow hits the ground.
Now, let’s talk about the feature that’s responsible for creating the sensation i.e. the 8MP camera. Surprisingly, it looks like a real digi-cam and even features a lens cover that opens and shuts automatically upon activation/deactivation. However, cell phone freaks might consider themselves at par with the Cougar owners since this one also doesn’t have any inbuilt system to assist extensively in the dark; the dual LED light merely serves the purpose. But it’s a killer when daylight is available, more so because of the panoramic views it helps achieving. And oh, of course, it supports heavy usage; even ladies who live by the phone won’t be able to get the battery conked before they speak to their hearts’ content. Would love to see someone talking for 500 minutes at a stretch.
Optical joystick, browser, and apps
The regular features do not need a mention; there’s Web, GPS and all the others that have now become a staple. But then again, this one stands out from the rest in the Samsung range; despite a wobbly optical mouse controller, the i8510 INNOV8 is definitely a stellar creation.
