It's interesting to see how the focus of companies differs when launching the same handset in different parts of the world. While its launch in 2008 focussed on the handset's camera and incredible output, the India launch showcases its multimedia experience pegging the handset as a 'mobile entertainer' perhaps realising that not many in India will buy a handset only for its picture taking ability. Indians may want more value for their rupee and focussing on the �completeness' of the handset as a multimedia instrument may find more takers.

Samsung Pixon is also ideal for enthusiastic gamers as it comes pre-embedded with a host of popular games like Brain Challenge, Diamond Twister and Millionaire-3. Apart from these, users can also enjoy the motion-sensor based game - Tumbling Dice.
