The photo quality and shooting performance might disappoint those looking for significantly better results than a high-end smartphone
This is an entirely unimaginative update to the Galaxy Camera, bumping up a few specs to bring them closer in-line with Samsung's current phones. Is it better than the first one? Yes, but without any significant image quality improvements it's not worth u...

Abstract: The Long Zoom Compact category is probably the most diverse of any in our round-ups. Within it are three separate sub-classes of camera, all of which offer 8x optical zoom or greater (up to a whopping 83x). Broadly speaking, the cameras separate into the...

Huge responsive touchscreen, Useful 21x zoom, Access to tons of Android apps
3G/4G LTE connection removed, Screen has poor viewing angles outdoors, Low-light photos have noticeable image noise
The Samsung Galaxy Camera 2 isn't a major leap forward from its predecessor, and dropping cellular connectivity makes the Galaxy Camera 2 lose much of what made the original Galaxy Camera so special...

Is it worth it to spend $450 to get Android and a connected WiFi experience on the Galaxy Camera 2? Though performance of the Galaxy Camera 2 is surprisingly good–it's on par with many point-and-shoot cameras on the market today and far exceeds most of th...
The Galaxy Camera is a nice gadget, but it is bulkier than many point-and-shoot cameras and much more expensive. The Galaxy Camera is on par with a $200 to $250 point-and-shoot camera, not a $550 camera.Users looking to spend more than $500 on a point-and...
