If the idea of having to pay for a cellular connection is what stopped you from picking up a Samsung Galaxy Camera, you’ll be happy to know that a Wi-Fi only version is on the way.
While the first version of the Galaxy Camera wasn’t perfect, it wasn’t a bad concept, and it shot pretty decent photos. What partially killed it was the idea that you had to pay for a cellular plan for your camera. Well, Samsung is back with the exact same camera, just minus the cellular aspect this time around. The Samsung Galaxy Camera Wi-Fi is exactly the same camera except it will be sporting only dual-ban Wi-Fi for its connectivity.
No word on pricing or a release date yet, but it should be released in the not too distant future.
