Phones that have eight megapixel cameras are rapidly becoming seen as mid-range phones. Let's check out three of the best 8MP phones on the market.
Sony Ericsson Aino
If there's one name that really stands out in the world of music phones, it's 'Walkman'. What happens, though, if you take a Walkman phone, and give it an 8MP camera that's straight out of a Cyber-Shot phone, and re-christen it as an Entertainment Unlimited phone? You get the utterly brilliant Sony Ericsson Aino!
The combination of Walkman and Cyber-Shot is what makes the Sony Ericsson Aino, and the Entertainment Unlimited series as a whole, so very compelling. Top-end imaging is just a button-press away, and the Sony Ericsson Aino always makes music sound better than anything you can imagine. It doesn't have a smartphone OS, but you do get a touch-enabled media centre with the Sony Ericsson Aino. Just slide the phone closed, and it goes from being a standard phone into being a touchscreen portable multimedia player!
Samsung Tocco Ultra
What would happen if you took an awesome camera, and a sumptuous interface, but gave it a slide-out keyboard, and unbelievably, made it thinner than its predecessors? You'd get the gorgeous Samsung Tocco Ultra, one of the prettiest phones Samsung have ever made. It really is quite astounding that, despite being thinner than the Aino, the Samsung Tocco Ultra manages to squeeze in that beautiful keyboard. If amazing looks (with superb features) are what you seek from a phone, then the Samsung Tocco Ultra is perfect for you.
LG GD900 Crystal
So, there's the Sony Ericsson Aino, which is slightly let down by the touchscreen only working in media player mode. And then, there's the Samsung Tocco Ultra, which gives you a full touchscreen interface, a slide-out keypad, and gorgeous looks. Key to the incredible experience the LG GD900 Crystal gives you is its interface, as it uses LG's new S-Class UI. To visualise it, imagine a 3D cube, sitting on the screen of the LG GD900 Crystal, and on each side of the cube, there are things like shortcuts to apps, links direct to your music, or other widgets that you can customise yourself. The fun part comes when you interact with the LG GD900 Crystal, as you simply swipe across the screen, to rotate round those faces, and get to what content you want. However, the screen on the LG GD900 Crystal also supports multitouch. It doesn't end there, though, as the phone's keypad, as well as being COMPLETELY see-through, also supports multitouch gestures. It truly is the best phone on this list.
