Samsung Galaxy K zoom review: Zoom-zoom

04 July 2014
The Galaxy K zoom speeds down right onto our review track, ready to take on any cameraphone contender. This speedster is equipped with a 10x optical zoom and OIS and if you were to see only its back, you would hardly recognize you are staring at an Android smartphone...

AnonD-237024, 04 Jul 2014Nutshell: It's a Galaxy S3 with a massive camera module ... moreBut better processor.
Better batterylife.
Better display (sunlight performance, at least).
Newer android.
Better connectivity.
More RAM.
Different looks
And some other stuff.
In other words not much at all like the SIII except for screen resolution.

    pegasso, 04 Jul 2014strange... this review has no picture of Galaxy K zoom wi... moreIt is removable.
    If you go to phone specs and klick pictures, there is a picture.
    And I think they even removed it in the preview video.

    Ahy they forgot to mention it in this review and why they didn't post a picture here, I dont know.
    I guess they just forgot, they are humans after all.

      If I'm not mistaken, there is a two key press to launch the kamera. It's like shutter-key plus volume or something like that.

      Nothing about air-view.
      Nothing about turning the sensitivity of the screen up to use with gloves.
      And nothing about one-hand operation.
      I guess it does not have those features. Or Touchwiz (and other launchers, even vanilla) has too many features to cover all.

              Is it serious? This phone has horrible photo quality. S4 take better photos. Even the Nokia N82 has better camera... I can't believe it. (Did you degrade/ruin the photos to discredit the phone or what?)

                Nutshell:

                It's a Galaxy S3 with a massive camera module on the back.

                      strange...
                      this review has no picture of Galaxy K zoom with its back cover removed.
                      and i thought the battery is removable.

                      as far as i know, GSMArena usually took a picture of the device with its back cover removed to show the battery, the card slots and many more.

                        nice review, but it's too expensive.
                        the price is similar to Galaxy Note 3 Neo here.

                          Nice phone, but if you can live without the zoom and xenon flash, then you are better off with the S5 which can take overall sharper photos and better videos.

                            4 of 4
