Let's see.....

Tiny sensor: tiny pixels.
6 bits/pixel (i.e. 64 shades of R/G/B) if it's anything like all the other phone cameras...

Who cares how many pixels it's got? Not me, for one.

I think they just release those to peeve wedding photographers. You can already imagine conversations with guests "how many mp is your camera! My phone has more than that"

Samsung have had 5 megapixel in a phone for a long time... you just had to import it in.

I'm not seeing this as all that much special, especially seeing as though the sensor is probably going to be a similar size to that of the one in the X3. :lol:

Not only that, but you can guarantee they will be jumping in all the shots with their phone, doubling peeving the wedding photographers.
