Galaxy K Zoom to Replace Galaxy S4 Zoom

Samsung has finally announced the successor to the Galaxy S4 Zoom, meet the Galaxy K Zoom. It is a hybrid of an Android smartphone and a digital camera. 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-MP 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. In addition, the device’s Xenon Flash provides a brighter light than LEDs to improve the quality of the image with natural brilliance. On the front of the device is a relatively humble 2-MP camera.
