Samsung has officially announced a brand new 12 megapixel mobile phone. Samsung said the new Pixon12 model would go on sale in Europe later this month, a blow to struggling rival Sony Ericsson, who has been touting a 12 megapixel model since February but will sell it only in the fourth quarter.
Specs & Features:

The phone has a Xenon flash and features a touch auto-focus tracking. According to Samsung the phone has a fast-image saving feature that lets users take the next photo within about two seconds.
In addition to packing a sensor that makes most digital compacts look like 80s Polaroids, the Pixon12 has a 3.1” AMOLED display. It’s also features a full touchscreen interface, throwing it into direct comparison with the iPhone – which could be interesting, given that the iPhone is tipped to be getting a photo quality upgrade with the launch of iPhone OS 3.0. Like other recent high-end Samsung phones, the Pixon12 has 3G over full HSPA and Wi-Fi. Most other specifications aren’t detailed but should include GPS and microSDHC storage.
The lens is 28mm wide angle affair, which Samsung claims will give a better perspective for phone snappers.
