No sooner has Pocket Picks brought you news of the Samsung G600 five-megapixel camera phone, then pictures of its successor, the G800 leak onto the web. GSM Arena has got its grubby mitts on some photos and info on the new handset and while we understand the camera lens is still five-megapixel, this new slider now packs a 3x optical zoom and bona-fide Xenon flash.
Despite the G800 being a slider, the camera sits on the back of the phone complete with a sliding lens cover and faux-leather finish. One of the most disappointing aspects of the G600 was its lack of 3G or HSDPA but we still can’t confirm whether the G800 will rock up with these connection speeds. It also looks like you’re going to have to wait until early next year to get your hands on this sweet snapper.
Update: check out official pics of the G800 here.
Update two: more live pics of the G800 here.
Update Oct 25th: the G800 is now coming soon from T-Mobile.

Jesus that was painful to read, you’re not texting now so lay off the chav speak eh. Lay off Mario is a name just like Mike. You’re right though this phone is sweet I’ll lay off getting the g600 and wait for this. Samsung phones have long suffered for the lack of a propper flash.
There’s also the new LG to think about, if you’re in the market for a serious cameraphone…
wow… tv-out with res. 640×480 , 3g w/ FM 5 mega pexel… wow
wow… tv-out with res. 640×480 , 3g w/ FM 5 mega pexel… wow

haahaahaa
I agree with the guys who compliment the d500. I’ve had mine for over 3 years now and i still cant find a phone that suits me as this one. I definetely will be waiting for the g800. I had a nokia N95 as my upgrade and am selling it now, because i dont like it whatsoever. Big up to Samsung who know how to make better phones.
will be out on o2 in november
Release date of 10th November on vodafone with a 1 week exclusive.
hiya
Guys, just though i’d let you know Vodafone will stock from 1st of November. Don’t both with G600 if the G800 will be out this quickly. Its fully tested however as i’m not in that department i can’t confirm if 3G or HSDPA are present. It is listed on our stock list to arrive on the 1st of November.
ВИ ВСІ ЛОХИ !!!! МОБІЛРХУÐÐ’Ð
do you no how much it will be and what 12 month deals
What is exactly is the different between this fone and the G600.. how do u kno its betta .. im sure the G600 looks betta? doesn’t it
erm when is this phone starting selling?
cos i cant find it anywhere!
im also stuck between this phone and g600!
Hit the link at the end of the story to (to the ‘Update’) to see the latest pics, if that’ll help you decide. The five-megapixel camera in the G800 might be worth waiting for…
i can get a G800 right now. i order it today, I’ll have it by next week!! I’ve got a supplier in china and they have it already in stock!!
Yeah… Just be sure it’s a real G800, not a ‘Chinese Special Edition’ copy…
dem is well safe bum willy nob shoot acap up me bellend n that.I also think they look very nice and practical on the streets of london ta ta
If the screen is anything like u600, g600, e900 and d900 then stay away because they are prone to cracking! It doesn’t take much for the screen to go. Several of my friends have already had this happen to them and i know it’s a widescale problem! So as for dust with nokia my 93 and 73 screens kick samsung ass all day. Their big on appeal low on functionality!
beautiful phone

Fool, anything ‘out of infinity’ is a TINY percentage - in other words you dont like it as much, right?
Besides, this phone is amazing - i thought that the Sony ericsson K850i was the best, but now this has come along, beats all the phones in the market. Check out videos of it on YouTube!
Amazing phone, better than Sony Ericsson!
fuck
The G800 was launched on T-Mobile last week, but the company pushing it went into liquidation and so it vanished.
It is now available officially from Vodafone direct.
I think this cellphone is the best one Samsung has ever built. Nice design, great functions and a 5MP camera! I can’t wait to put my hands on it. Have you seen this very nice animation all spoted by this cellphone? http://www.weshow.com/us/p/22296/how_we_met_animation Great images, great work and it looks like a great phone! When i buy it I tell you how well it works.
