Very good

The good: GPS with support for A-GPS; HSDPA; Wi-Fi; 8GB flash memory; Bluetooth A2DP; 3.5mm audio jack; good image quality.

The bad: Glossy surface attracts fingerprints; software was a little unstable on our review unit; side-mounted 3.5mm audio jack and volume rocker that doubles as zoom lever could be better placed.

The bottom line: The INNOV8 is a high-end handset with almost every feature currently available and could rival any of the Nokia Nseries models.

The Samsung Innov8 (i8510 is a very elegant and business like Mobile phone with ease of use.

Aug 3, 2009

Rating: 9 out of 10 (Spectacular)
Pros: To me it does everything perfect and has very legible text and you cannot ask for more compared to the Blackberry.
Cons: Load slow when starting up and on my first purchase got an earplug with one side of the cable being about 5 - 6 inches and the other one being about 2 ft in length so cannot use it as it will be too close to my face.
Opinion:
It;'s a pretty nice looking Mobile phone which has everything you can desire for except the slow starting and just hope I will not get any problems with the Symbian freezing. It is slightly larger than the Blackberry but I do prefer the looks of the Samsung Innov8 with a nice black coloring of the case and very large easy readable text.
Have it for about 5 days now and did already order an extra set of batteries just in case and though I have an MP3 for Music I do not believe I will add any music or too many pictures to it. Looking where to purchase an additional side chip of 16 Gb to add to it.

Samsung you have some nice Mobile phones which can give a lot of competition to Blackberry and Nolia but you need a whole lot more of advertisement in the Caribbean Area.
