There are quite a few 1megapixel phones coming out soon.

But my friend is using the Samsun VGA1000 right now and it is pretty good, but nothing compared to something like the new SE K700.

The a620 aka VGA1000 i have one in my hands right now from sprint , trying to unlock it for a friend , it takes very good pics in 640x480 and also has built in Flash and 4x Zoom .

For the GSM Carriers get the Samsung E715 , the same phone but smaller , sexier and better

for Sprint PCS they have either the A600 with the turning barrel lens or the A680 video phone in the US atleast.

EDIT: they do have the VGA1000 I was looking for A620

No they dont have it , V600 were meant for GSM providers .

I was about to get that one , got a good deal for 330 dollars in ebay , but its too heavy , the screen is magnificent btw , so i decided to go for the samsung E715 , any feedback ? I am still waiting this week for my provider to send it to me !

TT HATES camera phones. None is the best, all of them are crap, and a PHONE HAS TO BE A FUCKING PHONE :D

Keep your old mobile phone and save the money for a proper digicamera, you will be VERY happy!

I don't use the camera on my T610, I have it because it's the best phone all-around I ever had... I totally agree that camera phones ain't no use to take pictures with!

Well camera phones are still a long way from rivaling digital cameras, and I dunno if they ever will, but right now there are phone cameras that are better than 3 or 4 year old digital cameras, so who knows.

Anyway, I know about these things cuz I've been developing vodafone live service for mobiles for 2 years now, it's my job you see. so i've seen lots of camera phones.
Generally speaking Nokia provides the best picture quality, and often the highest resolution too.
The Nokia 6600 has one of the best cameras as someone pointed out, better yet the first of the 1 Mega Pixel generation is already out by now, it's the Nokia 7610 and I've used it myself and it's very very good.
This is a sample picture taken by it, you judge for yourself:

What do you think ?

I think the pic is too big and I have to scroll sideways to read all the text :wink:
But, I agree, the Nokia cams are the best, except maybe for the cheap ones...
But who really cares? Who use their mobile phone cam?

yeah I noticed that but I wanted to post the pic as is without any manipulation so that's it doesn't get any better or worse....

It's not a bad pic, but the shutter not beeing fast enough, and beeing impossible to put a phone on a tripod, it would be hard to improve. And it also lack a macro feature for pics taken from such short distance :D

Ok, seriously, it's a nice pic, but I hope camera phones will soon disappear :D

I recomend the new Sony Erricsson k700.
Apart from the camera that some people don't like it has 41MB memory, FM radio, Bluetooth, MP3 player, media player also.

I love it and in a few month i will be going to the shop.

I love it as well! I think that with the T610, SE was in front of Nokia... After that, Nokia has made some excellent mobiles, but SE is back in line with this one!

SE always comes up with better new models, but then as always Nokia will answer back by releasing an even better model. that's the good thing about competition. we, the consumers, end up being the winners.

Yes its always like that with technology , i had both sony and nokias , but now im getting a samsung , they have by far the best screen and they are super super cool , i was thinking in the K700 as my last 2 phones were SE , the T610 and the T68i , but after time the faceplate gets very bad , quality is not their best attribute .

Then about nokia , the 6600 looks cool but its too big
