Despite its overwhelming features, the Samsung INNOV9 i8510 is still widely unavailable in the North American region, and if you’re looking to get one, our best bet is to head on over to London. However, for those seeking to hear about its performance, we’re happy to let you know that BGR has come out with their hands-on take of the INNOV8.
They’ve got no qualms about its brilliant display, optical joystick, sound quality and the S60 FP2, but what’s unfortunate to hear is that it lacks US 3G connectivity. They’ve also noted that some S60 applications don’t work on it, but we figure a simple patch can easily resolve this problem. They also found it to be a little bit uncomfortable to use when slid open and the custom home screen isn’t to their liking either. If you’d like to see more of the INNOV8, check out BGR’s hands on gallery.
I guess most of the misgivings they found on the INNOV8 is a bit subjective, and others can probably look past these criticisms in favor of decent performance. Unfortunately, whatever good it has to offer will be sorely missed if it doesn’t become widely available. That’s one thing that Samsung should definitely work on.
