I love photography but hate to carry a bulky camera everywhere with me, the samsung Galaxy K Zoom came to my rescue and how! Coming from a leading smartphone maker like Samsung, this is firstly a greaat android smartphone but above all its equipped with a stellar camera with 10X optical zoom!

I bought this phone as I was looking for a mobile with excellent/very good camera; this made more sense as it came with 10x optical zoom and less than 25,000 without compromising on hard-ware. >It is a bit chunky by current standards and weighing at 200 gms you can feel the bulk. With 4.8 " screen.

Phone calls and as an excellent camera

This was the lowest price around for this phone. Love the zoom. Pictures come out really nice and there are a lot of different camera options, as many as I would use on a regular camera. The rest of the phone works well for messages and apps. Good battery life if you're not on apps all day.

¿Es posible meter una cámara compacta en un smartphone, con un flash potente y un zoom suficiente como para compararse? Samsung, por segunda vez, cree que sí. Este segundo intento se llama Galaxy K Zoom. Lo hemos tenido, lo hemos probado, y estos son los resultados.

Cámara, claro ; Su calidad, y sobre todo su zoom óptico, hacen justicia sobrada a su tamaño (otra cosa es si compensa el grosor) y no tendremos un zoom igual en cualquier otro smartphone, Empieza a parecer un smartphone .

Tamaño ; Aún siendo mucho mejor que el del S4 Zoom, no puede considerarse un smartphone normal por su grosor (no hablo del objetivo extendido); 16 milímetros son más del doble de lo que tiene cualquier smartphone actual, Construcción ; ¿Te gusta su parte trasera?

Since the launch of the Big.Little architecture, there are two different SoC philosophies: on the one hand, for example, Qualcomm's Snapdragon 801, which relies on four equivalent CPU cores, on the other hand, solutions such as the Galaxy K zoom's Exynos 5260 with its different CPU types.

high processing quality; camera with clearly above-average results; very good battery life; faster SoC; battery exchangeable; memory expandable

no tripod thread; bulkier than its predecessor when used as camera; no RAW support; large case and high weight

boyfriend loves it, very smart looking phone camera is amazing

The basics Are you ready to ditch your point and shoot for just a cameraphone? Samsung's betting on you carrying around only one gizmo that does it all with its lens-heavy, camera-orientated Galaxy K Zoom, the successor to last year's Galaxy S4 Zoom.

Last year's Galaxy S4 Zoom had plenty of things right with it, mostly in the camera department, but it was simply far too big to really fit in your pocket; This time around, Samsung's slimmed things down with the K Zoom, all thanks to a handy retractable lens, making it much more capable of fitting...

Samsung's slimmed down last year's model with the K Zoom, but it's still very bulky; It measures up a hefty 20mm at its thickest point, more than double than LG's flagship G3, and it also weighs up at 200g, making it not the easiest blower to cart around.

I love my Samsung Galaxy K / S5 Zoom, the only trouble I am having is that it freezes some times when I am scrolling on photos or openning camera or sometimes it just freezes when looking at Facebook, the first 3 times it did it I only wait for about 1 minute and pull out the batery to reset it...

Samsung has been trying to blend a proper point and shoot camera with a powerful smartphone for a while now. How close does it come to making a perfect match with the Galaxy K Zoom?

Good camera; 10X Optical zoom; Decent hardware

Expensive Bulky; Low resolution display
