While ASUS are all set to make a whole bunch of announcements at CES 2015 on 5 January 2015, they've released a teaser trailer on what they could be unveiling. The video asks you to "SEE WHAT OTHERS CAN'T SEE" but what you should really be paying attention to are the dots and spaces in the video. This is actually morse code for "OPTICAL ZOOM", confirming rumours we've heard about an optical zoom capable, perhaps being called the ASUS ZenFone Zoom. A good example would be something like the Samsung Galaxy K Zoom which retails for around RM1699 but if ASUS can push the price below RM1K, we're sure that the number of interested parties may increase. Hopefully, they'll also be able to make the telescoping zoom lens more compact but we'll find out more tech specs and features in the next few days. If you can't wait, do stand by here and watch their announcements for yourself. Check out the video and translate the morse code yourself below:

While Panasonic have officially stopped making Android smartphones, this hasn't stopped them from making a camera in an Android smartphone with the announcement of the Panasonic Lumix Smart Camera CM1. Slim, thin and coming with a very thin telescoping zoom lens, the black and silver CM1 looks like a very flat digital camera. Other tech specs and features include a 2.3GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 processor, 4.7-inch display with full HD 1080p resolution, 2GB RAM, 16GB storage, microSD expansion slot, 4G LTE support, WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS, NFC, 2600 mAh battery and Android 4.4 KitKat. It measures in at 21.1mm thick and 204g while the 20MP camera sensor with f/2.8 Leica lens can record 4K video at 15fps. No specific Malaysia release dates or pricing, but the Lumix Smart Camera CM1 will be available in France around November 2014 for 899 euros (RM3748). It's closest competitior would probably be the Samsung Galaxy K Zoom which is definitely a lot more affordable, but probably not as powerful in terms of features and tech specs.
