Camera phones have come a long way over the years, graduating from mediocre VGA lenses to higher-quality megapixel cameras. Though these devices will never replace your stand-alone digital camera, they are getting better, and now Verizon Wireless has scored the first 3.2-megapixel camera phone for the States: the Samsung SCH-A990. It comes with an autofocus feature, video-recording capabilities, and a cool swivel screen. This high-end mobile also has integrated Bluetooth, support for Verizon’s 3G services, and excellent call quality. But it’s not without problems. The phone was sometimes slow to perform multimedia functions in our tests and is marred by restrictions set forth by Verizon. Yet, for those who crave multimedia and the latest features on their phone, the SCH-A990 certainly fits the bill. Just be prepared for a little sticker shock. At $349.99, the SCH-A900 is on the pricey side, though certainly cheaper than the Nokia N80.
