Around the world, people are compelled to be content with their 5-megapixel camera phones, which seem to be the best camera phones the market can offer. It won’t be too long before the 5-MP phones are eclipsed by this new Samsung technology. Samsung unveiled their new 8.5mm 8-megapixel camera phone module. The new camera module features Low Light Trio for shooting at dark places, “smile recognition” instead of the old face recognition which means the picture will only be taken when smiles of all the faces are recognized, an “eye flicker” recognition which would prevent a picture from being taken when you have your eyes closed. If and when this Samsung technology is fully-developed, it could mean the revolution of high-megapixel cameras for ultra-slip phones, but we’ll just have to wait and see.
