Verizon Wireless has launched the Samsung A990, the highest resolution camera phone currently in the country. With an impressive 3.2-megapixel resolution, the camera easily outpaces the previously industry leading 2-megapixel models.
Features of the Samsung A990 include:
Thanks to the high-end features, the A990 is commanding the high-end price of $349.99 after $50 in online savings and a 2-year service contract. It's available now.
try google, I found a number of shots. New A990 seems great!
this is a great phone... any reviews?
i hope it doesnt run the crappy verizon UI
WOW! What an awesome piece of equipment! Finally, a great phone AND great camera in one nice package!
This phone just feels good in your hand. It is a great fit around your face when talking on the handset. The speakerphone is super loud...enough volume to be able to hear someone while driving down a freeway.
And the camera...fantastic! Of course, my daughter just bought a compact Nikon 6.0 megapixel camera and it takes awesome shots...BUT...she doesn't have a phone on it!
The A990 camera is 3.2 mp, and is wonderful, PRINTABLE quality. It even has autofocus...which will take just a little getting used to, but worth it!
Yes, the A990 is a little pricey, but have you seen what just that quality camera sells for without a phone?
This phone is worth every penny! Thanks Samsung! Now if Verizon would loosen up the Bluetooth OBEX a bit, I would rate it a 12 on a scale of 10!!
DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE!!! i bought it 2day nd on my way to the parking lot it fell from about 2-2 and a half feet onto a carpet outside of the door of verizon of verizon and the thing broke.i tried turning it on nd it wouldn't. battery was full when i got it . having a camera is gunna make life a lot more delicate. don't get it trust me.
does anyone have any idea if a better camera phone will be presented anytime soon. one being greater than 3.2 megapixels.?
Hey, this phone is GREAT!!!! It's good looking, comfortable, and loaded with fun usable stuff. I have a closet full of phones, but this one is really nice.
Verizon charged me $550 for the A-970 and this phone is only $350? Verizon sucks..
Does anyone have several photo links to pics they've taken with the A990 yet? I've heard that shutter lag is pretty bad, but the photo quality is overall very good.
WOW! That's a real step up. Verizon is leading the charge again. Anyone have example pics from this thing?
