‘Samsung to launch Android-powered camera during IFA‘



Samsung is likely to launch an Android-powered smart-camera during the IFA in Berlin, Germany, according to an online report. The purported point-and-shoot Samsung Galaxy S Camera will have a 4.8-inch touchscreen, just like the Samsung Galaxy S III, and a 16MP sensor, whose size is not known as of now, says the report on GSMArena. 

According to the website, the camera is said to be twice as thick as the Galaxy S III and will run on Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich). Reported to be launched in Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi+3G variants, the device will feature 10x zoom and pop-out Xenon flash. The connectivity options reported to be for data only and the device will not support calls. 

The manufacturer is showing the smart-camera to various carriers. There is no indication of the pricing and availability of the model till now. 

Previously, Samsung has broken cover of several unique products at the IFA, such as its first-ever tablet Galaxy Tab, its very-first Amoled tablet Galaxy Tab 7.7 and its popular phablet Samsung Note. 

Japanese electronics major Nikon recently launched an Android-powered camera in the market called Coolpix S800c.
