Galaxy K Zoom: what I want from Samsung’s next camera-smartphone hybrid

Posted on April 21, 2014 by Taylor Martin

In typical Samsung fashion, the South Korea-based company is rumored to continue its “fire hose” method of saturating the market in every way possible. Not only does Samsung manage to cater to every last consumer imaginable through creating dozens of similar-yet-different products, it likes to bend the likes of its staple brands to appeal to different consumers, as well. For instance, last year, we saw the Galaxy S 4 mini, Galaxy S 4 Zoom, and the Galaxy S 4 Active, all of which were actually very little like the original device they each were derived from. Samsung also ...

Galaxy S5 Zoom teased to launch April 29 as Galaxy K

Posted on April 14, 2014 by Stephen Schenck

Of all the possible “spin-offs” that would join the Galaxy S5 as members of Samsung’s 2014 family, a Galaxy S5 Zoom has long seemed the most likely to make an appearance. We’ve been chasing leads on the phone for a couple months now, but the most interesting development came earlier this month, when a source both provided the first possible image of the hardware, along with a new name for the model: the Galaxy K Zoom. We weren’t quite sure ...

Possible Galaxy S5 Zoom pictured, gets new name – but is it real?

Posted on April 3, 2014 by Stephen Schenck

Much like how last year’s Galaxy S 4 gave birth to a family of related smartphones, we’ve been anticipating the launch of a few similar variants of this year’s Galaxy S5. One device we’ve heard mentioned a few times already is a GS5 Zoom, intended to outfit the handset with lenses capable of 10x optical zoom. The way the rumors described the GS5 Zoom, supposedly being much more slim and streamlined than the bulky GS4 Zoom, gave us cause to be ...

Lumia 1820, Galaxy S5 variants hinted at by case maker? Maybe, maybe not

Posted on March 27, 2014 by Stephen Schenck

Whatever happened to the Nokia Lumia 1820? We’d been talking about it since last year, and for a while we were hoping it might make an appearance at MWC, but then it dropped off the face of the earth. Was there still a chance this guy might be headed for launch, or were we barking up the wrong tree all along. As if from out of nowhere, the 1820 is back on our radar this evening, with a case maker’s website alluding to the smartphone, along with a few rumored Samsung ...

Galaxy S5 Zoom could be noticeably thinner than GS4 Zoom

Posted on March 24, 2014 by Stephen Schenck

It remains uncertain if we’re going to see the same kind of assortment of “spin-offs” with the Galaxy S5 as we did with the GS4 last year – do we really need a GS5 Active when the GS5 itself is water resistant? While that one’s up in the air, others have seemed more likely, and we’ve already checked out some evidence on more than one occasion which pointed to Samsung’s work on a possible GS5 Zoom. Today we pick up a few new details, and they’re starting to make this year’s model sound a ...

Galaxy S5 Zoom specs turn up in benchmark database

Posted on March 14, 2014 by Stephen Schenck

The hope that Samsung might bring us a premium edition of the Galaxy S5 may be quickly fading, but there are still other Galaxy S5-family devices we’ve been hoping to see arrive, and some of those models sound like they could still have some life to them. Last year, one of the more unusual GS4 spin-offs we got was the GS4 Zoom (above), sort of a halfway effort between the GS4 Mini and something like the Galaxy Camera. We’ve been anticipating a follow-up for ...

Possible Galaxy S 5 Zoom pops up in import log

Posted on February 4, 2014 by Stephen Schenck

With that Samsung Unpacked invitation arriving last night, we’re understandably excited to learn just what Samsung might be planning to announce. The Galaxy S 5? Perhaps. A new Galaxy Gear smartwatch? Why not? A few hours back, we heard rumors that a Galaxy S 5 active might be in the works, so maybe even it might show up, rather than mirroring last year’s delayed arrival for those GS4 spin-offs. Now we’re looking at another possible GS5 ...
