Gone are the days of carrying a heavy bag full of your laptop, still digital camera, HD video recorder, speakers, cell phone and tangled up cables to connect all the devices together. One of the newest phones on the market, the Samsung Acme i8910, puts all of these devices together into one, slim cell phone. The Acme i8910 is a "smartphone" that uses the Symbian S60 5th Edition operating system. This system, version 9.4 of the Symbian operating system, is the most recent one used by Nokia, Samsung, and other Symbian licensed carriers. It supports higher resolution screens better than QVGA can (320x240 pixels). Plus, the Symbian S60 5th Edition gives a layer of touch support as well as some sophisticated user interface elements. This impressive phone has a large, glass touch screen that shares the phone's face with a camera used exclusively for video-conferencing. A second camera on the back of the phone has eight megapixels and can also be used for HD video recording. This high quality camera contains a Xenon flash module that guarantees to brighten-up any low-light pictures.

Even though the Samsung Acme i8910 is a multi-media machine, it still has all the staples of a cell phone like GPS, Wi-Fi, eight or 16 GB of internal memory and a 3.5 mm headphone jack. It features only three hardware buttons on the front face and has no D-pad. The phone's eight megapixel handset carries the Anycall brand, and appears to have a touch screen display similar to Samsung's Omnia that operates on an updated Samsung TouchWiz UI. Now, the specs do seem very close to the Acme i8910's predecessor, the Samsung Omnia, except for the option of 16GB to enhance the memory. Some mobile phone experts have stated that the Samsung Acme i8910 is comparable to the Apple iPhone. Another feature not yet found on any other phone is an HDMI port. High Definition Multimedia Interface is the current top contender for home theater cabling. With HDMI, you will have perfect, uncompressed, high-definition images at 1080p and 7.1 surround sound. Plus you'll achieve this with only one cable coming out of your cell phone.

If you want to create and play high-quality videos on your Samsung Acme i8910, you can. The phone houses DivX technology that compresses video in a fast and convenient way, while giving you videos that aren't fuzzy and unrecognizable. DivX movies offer the same image quality as DVDs but at one-tenth (1/10) the size. So DivX is a perfect match for movie downloads on a cell phone where the bandwidth is usually limited. Multi-media fans will also love the fact that the Samsung Acmei8910 comes complete with DLNA. It is short for Digital Living Network Alliance, and is a way of moving movies, photos, music and other media from one location to another. DLNA servers save media in one device and stream it to DLNA compliant players (like video systems and MP3 players) without any configuration.
