Bla, bla, bla, etc, etc.
Don't feed to the troll. This smartphone is the best Android cameraphone made it ever.
You have no idea about you are talking about here, so stay at your home and read a book, for example.
On the other hand ... ( a question more important that the unseful @toptenreview post):

Recommendation : Don't buy (see bottom of comment)
Not the best travel zoom, not the best smartphone. But the best combination of the two which means you'll never be without a zoom camera. Which as a parent is invaluable.
I thought memory would be too small, but actually better than my previous Galaxy Note 1 which had an annoying partition limiting user accessible area. Speedy enough for anything I needed to do with it. (I'm not a big games player, but not sure this device is really aimed at you if you are anyway.)
Removable battery which extends life of device as battery performance degrades. SD card slot which you don't need to remove the battery to access.
Some issues with occasional dropping 4G signal on Three when stationary which appears to be a software issue, as restarting always resolves.
One significant design flaw that I hadn't seen mentioned in reviews before purchase is that the retracting lens cover is under the outer layer of glass. I can understand why, to protect sensitive mechanism, but it means that is open to becoming scratched and then useless. Think Samsung should include a more manual lens cover mechanism over the lens and/or include a case with lens cover built in.
However can't recommend purchase as, despite keeping in a soft pouch rather than directly in my pocket to protect the lens from scratches, dust has got into the lens mechanism. (Between the first and second layer of glass, under the lens cover mechanism as far as I can tell.) This dust becomes very visible in photos as you zoom in, rendering the whole point of carrying the slightly bulkier phone pointless.
I have returned for repair under warranty twice in subsequent weeks. Both times with detailed examples of the issue. (Clear description along with prints of photos showing the issue.) Both times it was returned without the dust issue being resolved or an explanation why, along with an issue I wasn't reporting shown as fixed! (New battery first time, some charging issue the second time. How come charging not an issue when returned the previous week?!?!?)
Googling ('k zoom dust issue') this seems to be a known issue carried over from the original S4 Zoom. Samsung should not be allowed to sell these devices until this design flaw is fixed.
Recommendation : Don't buy this camera or its successor until you have read the real world reviews of people using for an extended period
