The Samsung Galaxy NX is the company's second attempt at putting Android on a camera, building on the point-and-shoot Galaxy Camera. This time the company went with a mirrorless design, but it's as much held back by its Android operating system as it is h...
WiFi , 3G/4G, GPS, NFC, Bluetooth, Can be loaded with apps from Google Play, Touchscreen from the Galaxy S4 (excellent viewing angles, good display quality), Easy to use, Picture quality up to 3200 ISO, Excellent battery life
Bulky, EVF eye sensor is too sensitive, No swivel or tilt screen, Screen gets quite hot after about 20 minutes' use, Uses microSD cards, Uneven weight
The Samsung Galaxy NX offers the best of both worlds, combining the flexibility and image quality of an interchangeable lens compact with the versatility and connectivity of a smartphone. Samsung has taken its hybrid camera concept to a new level here. Ho...
Richly detailed colourful results thanks to larger lens mount and sensor, wow factor of giant 4.8-inch Android powered touch screen, multiple connectivity options
Very pricey as a first-of-its-kind device, big screen inevitably adds to the overall size of the Galaxy NX, oddly misses out on NFC connectivity
It's all about pictures however and using the general-purpose 18-55mm kit zoom supplied it's possible to get those attractive, DSLR-style, shallow depth of field effects, even if we found busy scenes could confuse the camera's AF as to what it should be f...
Essentially, the image performance of the Galaxy NX is on a par with the NX300, with the added advantage of a bigger screen that improves the usability of the touchscreen AF, previewing photos and spot metering. The big selling point is the Android operat...
Android OS is great for sharing, good stills and video quality, i-Function lens system, bundled Adobe Lightroom 5 software, 4G speeds
It's physically huge, not going to be a tablet replacement, very expensive, data SIM adds to cost (if added)
At £1299 it's the Galaxy NX's price that's a big hurdle to overcome. For our US readers expect to pay $1699. Clearly, this isn't an impulse purchase, and it's not like you can offset some of that cost against the price of a tablet, either, as they'r...

Due to the short amount of time we've spent with the Galaxy NX we can't really comment on image quality (we saw the camera in a small hotel conference room). So that will have to wait for a full review. Beyond its slightly chunky design, we like the amoun...
Abstract: Tech Digest went hands-on with the Galaxy NX at a Samsung launch event in London last night. Check out our first impressions in the video above!You can see images of the Galaxy NX camera in the gallery below...
Slow processing, Few physical buttons, AF point change impossible when using EVF
Ultimately, despite the undoubted improvements, we're still not entirely sure who this camera is aimed at. The professional who has this kind of money to spend on gear like this may get easily frustrated by some of the handling aspects of the camera, whil...
