Last but not least from Samsung is the i8 – a blend of camera and media player with a 2.7″ touch-sensitive screen and a ‘World Tour Guide’ covering 30 countries. 195 MB internal memory stores the 8.1 megapixel images or you can slot in an SD card for more space. ISO 1600 and Digital Image Stabilization help to keep things steady and Intelligent Face Recognition ensures faces are correctly focused and exposed. Interested? You’ll find it in the shops from February for £149.
