Yesterday, Samsung Galaxy K Zoom was officially introduced in Singapore which could possibly be the best smartphone with optical zoom ever introduced by Samsung despite previously released Samsung Galaxy S4 Zoom was not really the one you could look for. Why do I mention the Samsung Galaxy K Zoom to be the best? Simply because of its enormous specifications which I was initially expecting Samsung to put so much of effort for this particular camera and smartphone combined segment.
Some notable high end features are such as 20.7MP BSI CMOS sensor main camera, with 10x optical zoom and OIS! Ideal camera to present in a smartphone. With the additon of Xenon flash, and all those top notch features, you could be resulted with perfectly balanced, sharp and crisp, very good low light performance and minimum blur to be noticed caused by movement despite the existence of the Optical Image Stabilization.
Compared to the similar previous edition, Samsung Galaxy S4 Zoom, the specs vary pretty much everything and probably on the 10x Optical zoom remained. The Samsung Galaxy K Zoom features 1.3GHz Quad-core + 1.7GHz Dual-Core processor which means dedicated Hexa-core working accordingly depending on your usage and the CPU usage. The screen is sized at 4.8″ 720p screen with Super AMOLED technology. Unfortunately it does not feature the latest USB 3.0 and remains with the 2.0, but hey it’s not really a must have feature anyway. Lastly the Samsung Galaxy K Zoom is a must try device, which I personally would buy and test it out as internally the specs are really high with the advantage of smartphone with DSLR like camera, plus with the gorgeous outlooks similar to the Samsung Galaxy S5 theme would definitely be your cup of tea.
Anyway, below is the specs sheet, check it out and leave your opinion on would you buy the Samsung Galaxy K Zoom, or not?
