The benchmark scores of Samsung's rumored camera-centric flagship phone Galaxy S5 Zoom have leaked online, revealing key features of the device.
Samsung Community website, SamMobile, has posted exclusive screenshots of Galaxy S5 Zoom's AnTuTu benchmark scores and the device's specifications.
The new Samsung device has scaled 33252 points, outscoring top-end phones such as Galaxy S4 and HTC One (M7), which run on the Snapdragon 600 series quad-core processor. Though it is exciting to see a mid-range phone outperforming the 2013 marquee phones, the ratings are expected to change as the phone was reportedly trialed under test software. Results may differ after the device is tested using final retail firmware.
Galaxy S5 Zoom is understood to boast a 4.8-inch HD (720x1280p) screen and run on the Android v4.4.2 KitKat OS with TouchWiz UI, powered by the Samsung's proprietary Exynos 5 series (5260) Hexa-core CPU (1.7GHz Cortex-A15 dual cores and 1.3GHz Cortex-A7 quad-cores), Mali-T624 (quad-core) graphics engine, sumptuous 2GB RAM and expandable memory (via microSD card).
The marquee feature of the new Samsung smartphone is its 20.2 megapixel main camera, boasting 5184×3888p resolution with Optical Image Stabilization (OIS), Xenon Flash, 10x optical zoom and a 2.1-Megapixel (1920×1080) snapper on the front. Another interesting aspect of the Galaxy S5 Zoom is that it will be more slimmer and aesthetically compact, compared to 2013's bulky Galaxy S4 Zoom, which had the protractible lens forming an awkward bump on the rear-side.
Other expected features include Bluetooth 4.0 LE / ANT+, Wi-Fi (802.11 a/b/g/n/ac) Wi-Fi Direct, DLNA, Wi-Fi hotspot, and an IR blaster (remote control feature) and micro-USB 2.0.
Apart from Galaxy S5 Zoom, Samsung is also slated to announce two more Galaxy S5 variants: Galaxy S5 Mini, a compact model featuring a 4.5-inch display, and Galaxy S5 Neo, a budget model for price-conscious consumers.
