The Samsung Galaxy Camera is a gorgeous bit of kit
With a dazzling large screen (the best we’ve ever seen on a camera). Its version of Android

Is much more up to date than that found on the Android-powered Nikon Coolpix S800c
And runs all sorts of apps
Even video players and games.As a way to introduce amateurs into the world of photography
It excels
The on-screen dials in Expert mode
Vivid 4.8-inch rear display is largest ever on a digital camera
Can connect to the Internet direct from the camera via any available Wi-Fi network
21x optical zoom offers plentiful framing options for 16 megapixel stills or Full HD video

The editors didn't like
Unit seemed to be a bit top heavy
Difficult to hold at times
First of its kind so more likely to sufer from bugs
Design
With a crisp white and brushed metal finish the unit is certainly a bit of a looker. The massive 4.8” super clear LCD screen looks
Sensitivity isn't handled as well as in the firm's other cameras
Image sharpness isn't consistent over the frame at maximum zoom setting
Bulky
It's big
Expensive in compact terms
Potentially long start-up time
No 4G
Soft images when extending the zoom
Mid-high ISO settings no good for critical work
Mis-focusing can be a problem
Would have liked one physical function button
Can occasional
Small and fiddly microSD
Rather large and bulky
OS built for phones
Not cams
Short battery life. Overall photo quality is OK
But may not be worth the price for some users
A little big for some
Can't use it as a phone
No macro shortcut
We could complain about the lack of software fine tuning - it’d be great if more apps could make use of the optical zoom on the camera. As with the Nikon
You’re better off taking shots first and then opening them in your Android camera app of choice. We could also complain about the meagre battery life
More in line with a modern smartphone than a compact camera - you’ll need to get used to char
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

Abstract: Soms kun je ontzettend mis zitten. Dat is ook niet erg, dat maakt een mens een mens. Je maakt fouten, je leert ervan en gaat door. Laten we hopen dat Samsung dat met de Galaxy Camera ook doet. Ja, dit is een vrij stellige inleiding. Dat realiseer ik me t...
Al met al viel de Galaxy Camera ons dus wat tegen. We hadden hoge verwachtingen qua fotokwaliteit en gebruiksgemak. Dat laatste is wel degelijk aanwezig, maar zou nog beter kunnen zijn als apps meer berekend zijn op een digitale camera in plaats van all...

Groot touchscreen, Bediening snel en makkelijk, Foto's uploaden/delen, Android apps
Te groot voor compactcamera, Matige flitser, Fotokwaliteit laat te wensen over, Beoordeling 7 / 10
Samsung heeft met de Galaxy Camera licht laten schijnen op wat er aankomt: door internet verbonden camera’s met slimme smartphone-functionaliteiten. Het apparaat is echter niet perfect en misschien wat lomp. Maar ondanks de grootte is de Galaxy Camera wel...

De Samsung Galaxy Camera is een bijzonder apparaat: half tablet, half camera. Vooral de 'smart' mogelijkheden zijn interessant. Het grote scherm is een genot om te zien en te gebruiken. Met de tabletkant zit het wel goed. Helaas schiet de fotokant teko...
