Features:
As a camera-specialized smartphone, the Galaxy K zoom offers an advanced technical camera system designed to offer the control and functionality of a professional camera, ensuring that the important moments are never missed and always captured with complete clarity. The Galaxy K zoom is equipped with new retracting lens technology that provides 10x optical zoom in a remarkably slim and chic body. Other notable features include the 20.7 megapixel BSI CMOS sensor for ultra-clear, ultra-detailed images. It excels in low light conditions, and provides Optical Image Stabilizer (OIS) to reduce blur caused by movement. These specifications ensure the device delivers pictures and video (Full HD) that are crisp and sharp, even when zoomed and in low light. In addition, the device’s Xenon Flash provides a brighter light than LEDs to improve the quality of the image with natural brilliance.

The new device also integrates the most advanced camera usability features and functions, including AF/AE Separation (Auto Focus/ Auto Exposure Separation) for the precise balance of light and clarity, next-generation Pro Suggest mode which offers 5 optimized filter settings, Selfie Alarm that allows users to take timed selfies with ease, and object tracing for a clear, focused shot of a moving subject. Each feature comes with a simple User Interface, allowing users to easily capture photos and videos with groundbreaking quality, in any situation.

The compact and highly portable Galaxy K zoom features an ergonomic grip and sleek, stylish lines that feel soft and comfortable in the hand. Additionally, the Galaxy K zoom offers all the features that consumers want in a flagship Galaxy smartphone, such as Ultra Power Saving Mode for minimizing the battery consumption, S Health Lite for personalized fitness and lifestyle coaching, and a Studio app to allow users to easily edit their pictures and videos.


Availability:
Samsung is set to roll out the Galaxy K Zoom globally, starting in May.

So few people are going to buy this. I wonder how much support Samsung will provide for them if and when it has issues. Do you think they will put much effort in supporting such a device?

Exactly, big ass lens on small devices. iPhone doesn't need anything big to be better. If apple can easily put enough specs in something this then it can easily be faster than anything bigger.

I can see people using this. My wife loves her iPhone, yet this new feature attracts the eyes, and like many females, she'd be drawn to this "feature". While I'd like a flat camera like this when I travel, I would not use it as a phone. But I could consider buying it just to take and upload pictures…. providing the picture quality is as good, and hopefully better, than most point and shoot cameras. If so, than yeah, maybe we'd get one. Apple, are you listening? Maybe a slick iCamera?

Listening to a follower? Please it's just an add on just like a sony accessories which already does that to, but it's trying to get the most out of a phone for that matter.
