AT&T announces Samsung Galaxy Camera for $499

US cellphone network AT&T will sell Samsung’s Galaxy Camera from November 16th at a price of $ 499. The Android 4.1 connected camera, which essentially adds a 21x zoom compact camera to a Galaxy SIII smartphone (with the omission of phone function), will cost the same amount with or without a data contract – rather than being subsidized by the carrier, as smartphones usually are. Anyone buying a Samsung smartphone at the same time can receive up to a $ 100 discount. The AT&T version of the camera will offer a HSPA+ connection, not the faster LTE system.
