              Samsung K Zoom is a good phone for camera lovers. The specifications are good. I am using since 1 year without any problem.

              Drawbacks

              You have to use auto pop up covers to protect lens. This covers will make the phone thick and weight increases

              No update to lolipop

                Been using samsung galaxy k zoom (SM-C111) since Dec'14-Oct'15, & here is what i feel about it:

                Pro:
                -Good camera quality especially at night, with/without flash (as it have its night program)
                -Good front camera quality
                -Zoom capability up to 100M without affecting its photo quality
                -Expandable memory/storage
                *serve good job in terms of camera quality

                Con:
                -Heavy & bulky (might be acceptable if it come as dual sim=equal to carrying two phone weight)
                -No OS update to lollipop
                -Quad & dual core + 2gb of RAM, but sometime still hang badly, up to the point where i have to pull out the battery
                -Bad battery performance, especially when taking quite a lot of picture
                -Battery heating issues, during taking picture & gaming
                -As camera as its main attraction, i prefer it to have the screw hole to attach with camera stand
                *excluding the good picture quality, you might need to rencosider buying this device

                  AnonD-14584, 13 Jul 2015@toptenreview Bla, bla, bla, etc, etc. Don't feed to the troll. This smartphone is the b... moreUpdate:

                  So in one last (3rd) attempt to get my issues resolved I took my camera in for repair at the Oxford Street flagship UK Samsung store. (Operated by Carphone Warehouse.)

                  Where it has been for 4 weeks and counting! Anyone buying a Samsung should be aware of the levels of customer service you will receive in the event of any issues. I've now been on my old phone for about 2 months this year. I truly love the concept of the K Zoom, and the fact you can shoot 3:2 aspect ratio photos with it. But sadly even if it does get fixed or replaced I'm considering eBay-ing it and switching to a G4 or 5X, as truly the customer service could not be any worse and the more I read the more I am convinced that the same problem will just reoccur.

                  I'll try and post links to photos of my repair letters from Samsung somewhere so that you can see this is genuine experience.

                  After complaining about my experience I got a call from their customer service team in Sheffield who basically confirmed that there is nothing they can do to help. That all decisions are taken by the engineers and that the only option is to continue to send it back in for repair until it is actually fixed. Therefore if it's not fixed or replaced this time I'm considering a legal claim under the Sale of Goods act as the lens mechanism is not fit for purpose for a device which is also a phone and kept in a pocket.

                    Just got this phone and it's expensive for no reason....the S4 zoom i had for 1.5 years and it's much better...better shape, wheel zoom, screw for tripod mounting....this k zoom takes blurry pictures, the pictures taken at a distance are very blurry, flash pictures blurry....it's shit...internet is shit, no 4g , signal drops, battery wears out fast (without camera use, just internet) .... really not worth it ...especially not getting the newer versions of android...last zoom i ever buy...probably last samsung.

                            @ Naveen Reddy:
                            Get your fone cam cleaned at the nearest service center, as yours is within the warranty period you would not be charged; I recently got it done. They might keep the phone for a day or two and return it with proper cleaning; you better save your data, contacts and chats before you submit your fone. To avoid further damage to camera in future get a cover which entirely conceals your camera lens. Hope this would help you!!

                                  @ S4 Zoom User:

                                  I had used S4 Zoom for 6 months and since a year I have been using K Zoom. It faster, sleeker, and has better cam functions.

                                  Unless u understand the use of manual mode, u wont be able to exploit the features of the cam.

                                  one more thing be it a S4 Zoom or a K Zoom u need to protect the lens from lint and avoid getting it on to CMOS sensor, else u get blotches on the pics that u click.

It's a great phone with a great camera. The battery life is what you would expect from a phone that's running such a big camera. It runs quickly and smoothly. It's a little heavy and thicker than most samsungs but otherwise it's a great phone to have. Real eyecatcher when you talk in public with it!
