The touch screen – the only access to camera controls – is intuitive and responsive
Although we did find it stuck on a couple of occasions. Being Android based file management is excellent – simply plug it into a PC (or a Mac using the Android file manag

This camera is good
Really good. The software and management features are significantly ahead of traditional camera brands and the fact that it comes with a full blown Jelly Bean OS
1.4GHZ quad core processor is an advantage. 3G and Wi Fi are also thro
Excellent touchscreen. All the benefits of Android and associated apps. 3G connectivity. Range of video recording frame rates
Including low-res 120fps. 21x optical zoom
Great combination of technology
You can use it to send and receive SMS
Macro ability is actually decent
Long lens
The editors didn't like
The touch screen is super sensitive and it is easy to accidentally take photos. Fortunately they don't cost anything but they are time wasters when sorting through pictures
Easy to get lost in the flashy features and forget that this is actually a camera too
Asking price is high for a camera of only snapshot quality
Removable media is the small and fiddly microSD
Larger than the average pocket snapshot too
$599
What's missing is accessories such as a decent camera case or mini tripod. A slot for a hot swap flash would also be an advantage especially if you want to use a stronger flash with its own battery pack.
Short battery life. Overall photo quality is OK
But may not be worth the price for some users
Battery life is poor
Reasonbly bulky
Not exactly the fastest camera to switch on
Proprietary HDMI port
Many apps aren't really designed for a camera with optical zoom
Great apps; long zoom; wide range of connectivity options; incamera features; biggest screen; 3G
Uneasy to hold; big and heavy; image quality not very good
This first in class 3G camera is worth buying as it allows you to not only click good pictures but also to browse the net, download apps, and listen to music at the same time....
Good build quality, Android OS, Awesome Display & Responsive Touchscreen, SIM card slot, Great Apps, 21X Zoom
Big in Size, Can't be used for voice calling, Bit Pricey

Powerful 21x optical zoom, 4.8" LCD touchscreen, Lag free operation, 1080p video recording.
Touchscreen gets inadvertent inputs, Mediocre image quality, Slightly large to hold, Lacks manual focus, Expensive, No voice calling
The Samsung GALAXY Camera, while being far from a perfect point and shoot camera, does have its share of positives. The 21x optical zoom is certainly helpful to bring far off objects within reach, while the image stabilisation allows for a steady image o...

Maybe, actually. For all its foibles, the Galaxy camera is a lot of fun to use. Maybe this things nothing more than a toy, but its a really entertaining toy. People want to instantly share an image—they just dont want to sacrifice quality to do it. So...
