Five Megapixels For Korean Cell Phones

casio

If you live in Korea, you can get a cell phone with a 5-megapixel camera. If you don’t live in Korea, you can’t. That’s just the way it is. Some things will never change.

I have one of the old school Casio EXILIM cameras and I still use it to this day even though I bought it about 5 years ago. The EXILIMs have traditionally gotten dinged for having so-so photo quality but the convenience factor makes up for it, in my humble opinion.

Other than the whole 5-megapixel thing, the Casio EXILIM W53CA is a CDMA clamshell phone that can hold your photos on microSD cards and will come in red, silver, or black.

Us Brits have had the Nokia N95 for a while now and it has a 5 mega pixel camera on it.

W53CA is not for Korea but for Japan.

Yes, obviously the ad is in Japanese. You would think this rather important point would be worth getting right….

As Kyle said, Nokia N95 has 5mp camera, and it’s available all over Europe.

 
yuppie

This is not just a cell phone that’s got a 5mp camera. It has a 480×800 resolution LCD, with Opera based browser by which you can view a web sites lengthways and widthways (i.e. 800×480). You can see documents of PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint.
You can listen to music, video (and YouTube through the browser) and can be used as electronic money.
To be honest, I believe many Japanese cell phones have much features than iPhone BUT, none of them is superior to iPhone’s interface and design.

 
Hope

the person who posted this was wrong..
and that this is a phone for japs…but
korean phones will always be superior…
korea came up with the technology to use their phones as money, to put such high megapixel cameras into the phones, and just about everything else you can find in cellphones these days…
and honestly i think the i phone sucks…
it is the worst piece of technology i have ever seen in my life..
i think they sould have waited and improved it before they put it out so soon…
