Samsung Galaxy S4 Zoom (Price: P23,490)
Is it a smartphone? Is it a camera? It’s both.
The Samsung Galaxy S4 Zoom has a 16-megapixel camera with backside illumination or BSI and is the first handset to offer 10x optical zoom.
There’s what Samsung calls a zoom ring to access the device’s key features. For example, when you see something you need to share while on a call, just twist the zoom ring and you can already capture and send an image directly via MMS to the person you are talking to.
The S4 Zoom runs Android Jelly Bean, supports LTE, and flaunts a 4.3-inch qHD Super AMOLED screen.
