The rumour-scented winds breezed in last week with spy shots of the Samsung Pixon, so we're pleased the manufacturer hasn't dilly-dallied with the official thumbs up of their latest 8.0-megapixel mobile phone - the Pixon.

They've only just launched their first 8.0-megapixel efforts, the INNOV8 i8510, but the Pixon M8800 is being marketed as "the world's slimmest full-touch 8.0-megapixel camera phone", at 13.8-mm thin.

Measuring 3.2-inch, the touchscreen is a 240 x 400 resolution-boasting WQVGA TFT LCD number. The camera has a 16x digital zoom, auto-focus, face detection and geo-tagging, and there's even a dedicated photo browser to view and share your pics.

Capture video footage at 30fps (720 x 480 resolution) or 120fps , and even film in slow-mo. Play video in files including MPEG4, WMV, DivX and Xvid. Internal memory is paltry, at just 200MB supplied, however there's the microSD card slot, so buy yourself one of those 16GB SanDisk cards we reviewed yesterday, and load it with thousands of tunes. As long as they're in MP3, AAC, e-AAC+, e-AAC+ or WMA format.

Out in the UK from the 1st of November, the Samsung Pixon MM8800 should be available on most major mobile carriers, and is guaranteed to make LG's blood boil.
