A Samsung 12 megapixel camera phone has been rumored just before MWC but we haven’t seen it yet. What we’ve seen at MWC was a Sony Ericsson able to shoot 12 megapixel pictures. LG seems also interested in developing such a camera phone and it’s said to be working on it already.

LG Mobile’s head of marketing in the UK says that LG has the 12 megapixel camera phone in the works:

We’ll very much be releasing a 12MP cameraphone. However, it’s important that people realize when taking 12MP images, they’ll be using huge amounts of data, and it will be more difficult to do things like send such files.

Question is, do we really need that many megapixels in our camera phone? Shouldn’t we be buying real cameras with real camera features if we want really professional photos?
