You've seen the Samsung Galaxy K Zoom, now, haven't you? Of course you have – a phone as unusual as this can't go unnoticed. It is Samsung's ultimate cameraphone, packing all the bells and whistles one would expect out of a standalone camera, not a smartphone. You know, goodies like optical image stabilization, a xenon flash, and even a 10x optical zoom lens. Yet the Samsung Galaxy K Zoom is far from the first phone to offer a camera with optical zoom. Its predecessor, last year's Samsung Galaxy S4 Zoom, wasn't either.
In 2004, Vodafone Japan released the Sharp V602SH flip phone. It was the typical top-of-the-line handset for the time, featuring a large, high-res display, relatively fast data connectivity, video games, a multimedia player, as well as expandable storage. Its highlight, however, was its camera. The snapper offered 2 megapixels of resolution (an image size of 1600 by 1200 pixels) and 2x optical zoom. Remember, this happened 10 years ago, so the latter feature must have been really impressive to see on a phone back then.
