PRESS RELEASE
Android platform and lightweight retro design allows photographers to capture and share with superior quality and speed
4 March, 2014, London, UK - Samsung Electronics today announced that customers in the UK are now able to purchase the Galaxy Camera 2, a successor to the award-winning Galaxy Camera, from Dixons, with selected online and high street retailers including John Lewis to follow in two weeks time.
Combining the quality imaging of a high-end camera with the sharing capabilities and intuitive design of the most up-to-date smartphones, the Galaxy Camera 2's revolutionary technology, which includes an upgraded 1.6GHz Quad Core processor and the Android platform, makes it faster and easier than ever for you to shoot, edit and share high quality images with friends and family.
With a lightweight, retro design, the Galaxy Camera 2 is the ideal device for photographers who do not want to sacrifice style for technology. The camera's 21x Optical Zoom lens allows photographers to get closer than ever before to their subjects, whilst the 16M BSI CMOS Sensor produces vivid images which are both rich in colour and sharp in detail, allowing memories to be captured and reproduced in perfect clarity.
Simon Stanford, Vice President of IT & Mobile Division, Samsung UK & Ireland said: "We're excited to introduce the Samsung Galaxy Camera 2 to the UK market, offering our customers the chance to experience a premium device that has best-in-class image quality with the ease-of-use and speed of an Android platform. Perfect for taking incredible images and sharing them quickly, we hope the Galaxy Camera 2 will help our customers stay stylish and connected at all times, wherever they are."
