    AnonD-125195, 12 Jun 2013Yes, there is, Nokia 808 Pureview has optical zoom up to 12... moreIt does not have optical zoom. It has "lossless" zoom when used in the PureView mode, which means that the final image is not just a cropped image, but a full resolution image. You do lose the benefits of over-sampling, so it's not completely lossless either.

      It'll be very awkward to talk on a camera-like device in public.

          yeah, 12 Jun 2013its bulky, big, and looks like a camera.... it IS a camera ... moreI reckon this is jst an experimental device 4m Samsung n it falls in no man's land - it's neither d most powerful smartphone n far from d best point n shoot cam! In fact, 4 most purposes a top range smartphone's cam is good enough 4 day 2 day snaps n vids! I guess this is Samsung's follow up 2 the Galaxy Camera, a novel idea but it failed 2 sell or catch on n this one seems 2 be headed toward d same fate! Still, credit goes 2 Samsung 4 at least bringing novel ideas n devices 2 d market, unlike some who prefer 2 make mega bucks by shamelessly suing,trolling n leeching off every1!

                its bulky, big, and looks like a camera.... it IS a camera before a phone. what did you expect it to look like? I mean, it is what it is. It did leaked before and i didnt see anybody dissing it.

                i never get samsung fans...

                  oxo, 12 Jun 2013If u want camera + phone I recomend nokia pureviewIm a Lumia 920 User and the camera is fantastic with the OIS on there but in all fairness to those who are fond photographers but dont want to spend hundreds/thousands on a decent camera but yet dont want to buy aswel as an up to date smartphone why not get both in 1, it makes sence, same with the new Nokia EOS, With the 41mp sensor, and 10x optical zoom on a smart phone is pretty epic. because in all fairness, digital zoom is a tad pointless for good shots. #RantOver

Instant zoom, with no moving parts and it's a slimmer phone. Also the upcoming Nokia EOS will probably have 12x optical zoom if not better.

                                  wow..wat a joke. All they did was take their last generation phone and stick an optical zoom lens on it. that thing probably takes crappier pictures than a 50$ point-and-shoot digital camera. Not to mention, it will freeze, heat up and need constant recharging.

                                  you're pathetic samsung.

                                      "please let me know i will inform to Samsung R&D team" - if you have such a close relationship with samy why don't you tell them to actually hire a R&D team instead of spending all that billions on s-marketing?
