Is It A Phone, Is It A Camera? No, It’s A Phamera! Samsung Unveils Its Jelly Bean-toting Galaxy Camera

Samsung has released what appears to be the Kraken of point-and-shoots. It’s a 16.3MP Android-powered camera, and when I say Android powered, I’m talking Android 4.1! Yep, I know a boatload of users who may never get the chance to taste Jelly Bean on their Android smartphone and yet here’s a camera rocking the latest version of Android (ouch). Other specs include:

  • 23mm f/2.8 lens with 21x optical zoom (though we’re not sure who manufactured the glass)
  • 4.7’ HD Super Clear Touch Display at 308ppi
  • ISO from 100 up to 3200
  • 3G and 4G connectivity
  • An impressive 1.4GHz Quad-core processor
  • Android 4.1 Jelly Bean
  • 8GB onboard storage, expandable via microSD
  • HDMI 1.4 out
  • A-GPS
  • Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity
  • 1650mAh battery

I don’t know what else to say… Time to add the word Phamera to the dictionary.
