Well, turns out rumors are being confirmed. Today, Samsung announced the Galaxy S IV Zoom. The smartphone that is kind of like the Galaxy Camera but of lower specs to that behemoth and of course with the phone capabilities. The device, together with the Galaxy S IV Mini and the Galaxy S IV Active will all be showcased in Samsung's Premiere event in June 20 of this year. With regards to the device's price and date of launch there is no word, as usual. But anyway, this device is more of like just a camera more than a smartphone. If I were to choose between this and the Galaxy Camera? I'd go for the latter since it is a powerhouse when it comes to specs and considering that I do not need another smartphone. But for those who wants a device capable taking amazing photos and a smartphone then this is the device to go for unless you want to go Nokia.
