The Samsung Galaxy Camera Wi-Fi only model could be the answer to those users’ prayers who can make do without 3G or 4G network connectivity. With the official word of the device’s existence out, the precise release date is yet to be announced.
Using the Galaxy Camera Wi-Fi only model, owners will not just be able to share content over the Internet, but they could also reap the benefit of backing up important data to cloud services without the help of any cellular network. The snapper runs the Android 4.1 Jelly Bean OS which gives users the privilege of choosing from multiple apps through the Google Play store.
The embedded 16.3MP CMOS BSI sensor is accompanied by a 21x optical zoom lens. It captures pictures and videos which can be viewed on the incorporated 4.8-inch Super Clear Touch display at a resolution of 1,280 x 720 pixels. The speed required for undertaking tasks such as downloading and sharing data is provided by a quad core processor clocked at 1.4GHz.
Apart from WLAN 802.11 a/b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0 and GPS fall under its connectivity attributes and at the same time the snapper will depend on a 1,650mAh battery to stay active between charges. Since the activity time derivable hasn’t been disclosed, we believe it should hover around that of the original device. In that case, users could look forward to standby of up to 280 hours.
The gadget will leap out preloaded with additional features like Share Shot, Auto Upload, Smart Content Manager, Paper Artist and Slow Motion Video capability along with a few more. Some of the Google mobile apps pursuing the device include Search, Maps, Gmail, YouTube and so on.
According to the company, the Samsung Galaxy Camera Wi-Fi only variant will not weigh so heavily on potential buyers’ pockets as it will be seen carrying a price tag with a lesser retail value as compared to that of its 3G- or 4G-enabled models. As of now, it’s hard to tell when this version of the snapper has been slated to surface.
