The editors liked

  • Very good build quality
  • Original flipout screen
  • Compact design
  • Although lots of cameras feature viewfinders that can be tilted and swivelled
  • The Samsung Multiview MV800 goes one step further
  • With the entire back of the camera moving by 180 degrees. This means you'll be able to shoot photographs of yourself
  • Or hold the camera above your head
  • Or even down on the ground
  • With the ability to view what you're shooting at all times. The screen is a touchscreen
  • Flip-out screen
  • Fun art filters
  • Sleek
  • Large
  • Tilting back screen provides the ability to achieve otherwise tricky low or high angle shots and self portraits
  • The Samsung MV800 is a gorgeous
  • And incredibly compact camera
  • Small enough to fit into even the smallest of shirt pockets
  • Making it great to take on a night out. For such a dainty device
  • The MV800 is also very well built. It feels solid and durable. However
  • Its 3-inch screen on the back means you still shouldn't chance a drop. Speaking of which
  • The flip-put display designed to encourage bet
  • Flip screen for self-portraits
  • Responsive touchscreen
  • Build quality
  • Superb picture
  • Thumbs up for HDR
  • Refined Smart Hub
  • Low price
  • Folding monitor
  • Fun features
  • Good image quality
  • Range of different features
  • Options and effects
  • Stylish and compact
  • Lightweight

  • Smartphone-like controls easy to master
  • Lots of easy-to-use creative tools and effects

The editors didn't like

  • Poor sensitivity (800 ISO best avoided
  • 1600 ISO unusable)
  • Responsiveness in reallife situations
  • Touchscreen interface isn't always logical (e.g. choosing shooting mode)
  • Lowgrade mono sound
  • No video record button
  • Video image too contrasted
  • Unfortunately
  • Photo quality wasn't quite as good as we were expecting
  • With images lacking in sharpness. We also found blue fringing around the edges of some of our photographs
  • And there are better cameras out there for overall quality.
  • Poor quality screen
  • Touchscreen sometimes unresponsive
  • MicroSD card format is small and fiddly
  • Average default image quality
  • The flip-out display is a nice feature to have but the display isn’t as responsive as it could be
  • Made more noticeable on those occasions requiring you to swipe the menus. If only it were as sensitive as Samsung’s smartphones. Photo quality isn’t bad at all
  • But depending on the ISO setting used
  • The Samsung MV800 can lack some detail in darker conditions
  • But again
  • For the majority of users th
  • Poor display quality
  • So-so image quality
  • Expensive
  • Unconventional control array
  • Fixing stand to rear panel
  • One Connect cable length
  • Having to send it back
  • Touchscreen
  • Image noise
  • Poor battery life
  • No built-in social networking integration
  • Flip-screen doesn't swivel
  • Much better value at £150 than £200

  • Superb picture, Thumbs up for HDR, Refined Smart Hub
  • Fixing stand to rear panel, One Connect cable length, Having to send it back
  • Despite our little niggle with the stand this is one sweet TV. The whole experience is refined, and the picture is superb in every respect. The addition of HDR makes the package even more compelling. It's hard not to be impressed by this premium TV that's...

  • For those who love taking self-portraits or couple shots for posting photos up on social media sites like FaceBook, Samsung has been a leader in the ranks thanks to their Dual-View cameras. This year (2011), Samsung has taken a slightly different path ...

  • If point and shoot's your thing, then you'll be delighted with the new Samsung NV800, which offers by far the most hand-holding features that we've ever seen on a compact camera, coupled with a great touchscreen that largely succeeds in mimicking a sm...

  • Abstract:  Fun in an ultra compact digital camera. The Samsung MV800 is targeted to point-and-shoot photographers and features 16.1 MP, a 5x optical zoom and a 26mm wide-angle lens. It is slim enough to carry in a jeans pocket. The MV800 builds on the succe...

  • Too many fun software features to count, Compact (and beautiful) design: should fit comfortably in any pocket, Straightforward interface: easy enough for a grandma to understand,
  • Touchscreen wasn’t as responsive as I’d have liked — flipping through pictures was a bit tedious, No microphone input, despite 720p video capture capability, Samsung may have overdone it on some funky features — Pose Guide, I’m talking to you
  • The Samsung MV800 isn’t a serious camera, but that’s fine. If you (or someone you know) is looking to have fun the MV800 is an excellent sub-$300 option. It’s cute, small, has more than enough features to keep you totally occupied, and it’ll probably ...

  • As a tool for photography, the MV800 has almost no specs or features that stick out to us, the camera nerds that work for this website. Image quality is average at best—actually, it’s pretty crummy in anything but bright lighting. Shot-to-shot times a...
