To that extent, Samsung has come out and confirmed it will release a WiFi-only version of the connected camera for those of us out here in the States. In case you&#8217;ve forgotten, the Galaxy Camera features a 1.4GHz quad-core chip, 1GB of RAM and most importantly, a decent 12MP camera complete with 21X optical zoom. The difference between the WiFi-only version and the cellular version: the WiFi-only version will run customers about $450, compared to $500 for the AT&amp;T HSPA+ version and $550 for the Verizon variant. Hopefully with the loss of the cellular chip, we&#8217;ll see a reduction in the overall weight of the device.<\/p>\n<p>Expect to see the WiFi Galaxy Camera to hit stores &#8220;later this month&#8221;. In the meantime, hit the break to see Sammy&#8217;s full presser.<\/p>\n<p><span id=\"more-157121\"><\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Samsung GALAXY Camera (Wi-Fi) Now Available, Offers Advanced Photographic Prowess and Access to Android Apps<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>New GALAXY Camera offers value to users seeking photo performance and connectivity<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>RIDGEFIELD PARK, N.J. \u2013 April 4, 2013 \u2013 Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd, a global leader in digital media and convergence technologies, today announced the availability of the Samsung GALAXY Camera (Wi-Fi), introducing photo enthusiasts another option to further their creativity and sharing potential.
