    Samsung added a 10x telephoto lens and i was excited to finally get that over the regular 2x or 3x of the time.

    Then they stopped making them and went back to 5x.

    This phone still works great

      A 10x zoom might tempt me to upgrade… Not much else would.

        Ive really enjoyed using it, pictures come out really nice. It helps to have something to steady yourself on though if you want the best outcome as your small movements move the window much more.
