Alleged Samsung Galaxy S5 Zoom now testing

04 February, 2014

A rumor from a few weeks ago suggested that Samsung will unveil a successor for the smartphone/camera hybrid, the Galaxy S4 Zoom. Things might be quite far along as the company imported a number of SM-C115 "mobile camera" devices into India for testing.

The significance here is that the Galaxy S4 Zoom carries the model numbers SM-C101 or SM-C105.

According to the initial rumor, the Galaxy S5 Zoom will have a 4.8" Super AMOLED screen with qHD resolution and will be launched in May. Unfortunately, unlike some other Zauba listings there's no mention of screen size here.

Anyway, the Galaxy S5 is expected to be unveiled at the Unpacked event at the MWC (that conspicuous "5" really stirred things up). The Galaxy S4 Zoom was announced about three months after the S4 phone, so the timeframe works out for a May unveiling if the S5 really arrives at the MWC.

I agree....But this....This really does not justify and upgrade I think. It's nearly Identical. I'm sure there is a budget problem do to the uniqueness of it...But something nicer and a notable bump in image quality should be the standard in an updat...
