Samsung has made a truly compact camera in the NX Mini
And inside its portable chassis is a wealth of specs you wouldn't expect in such a small shell. There's a oneinch
20.5Megapixel sensor packed in
And there's a new lens mount that Samsung has made j
Amazingly small ILC
Tilting 180-degree LCD
Decent stills and movies with enough light
Lens adapter for using traditional lenses
The editors didn't like
The interchangeable lenses are pointless and undercut the compactness of the camera. There are only two lenses to choose from
And neither offers compelling specs. There are no sharing features which distinguish the camera as being particularly "smarter"
Thin frame makes weight disproportionately balanced
Provides awkward handling
Lowquality plastic
Slow startup
No lens cap
Mono microphone
AF struggles in video mode
MicroSD cards
NXM lenses incompatible with APSC mirrorless interchangeablelens cam
Limited lens range
Smudgy images
No flash
We'd happily swap the selfie feature for a more versatile screen hinge
We miss the iFN lens features
New lens system is risky
No handgrip
No viewfinder
Small sensor
While we like Samsung's NX Mini for its portability
The interchangeable lens system means it's a little less portable if you want to take advantage of its versatility. That means shelling out for more lenses

Samsung's incredibly compact Samsung NX Mini interchangeable lens camera is cute, but there's a gulf between “cute” and “a sensible camera to buy”.There's a word to describe the NX Mini when you first lay eyes...
Good image quality from a small sensor, Hinged screen can be useful
Poor overall design, Exposure control is through the touchscreen
Samsung's NX Mini can take clear photos and its body is slim, but it doesn't have much going for it apart from that. Its overall design is not good, it feels cheap, and the user experience it provides isn't always enjoyable...

I can see how the style and uniqueness of the NX Mini will find it a pretty solid market of young-folk. But I have a hard time recommending it as something to capture high quality photos with. The most formidable competitor is the Sony RX100. While the mo...

Abstract: Samsung has compressed its NX interchangeable lens system into a 196g, 22.5mm thin, 20.5MP, NX mini digital camera.No, it is not for professionals – it is for the point and shoot, happy snaps brigade that wants a choice of different lenses to capture diff...
Samsung presents cameras with a good amount of innovation, more so than traditional manufacturers, especially the likes of Nikon and Canon. With the Samsung NX Mini the company has done it again, producing something that is fairly special in the market – ...

We really liked the design and build quality of the NX-mini. It is not all weather proof but because of the fox leather is looks amazing. It is very compact and easily compatible. Because of its light weight you can shoot pictures whole day single handedl...
Great quality for size, Cute and compact, Easy to operate, Seamless single/multi device sharing, Direct upload to Facebook/Flickr/Cloud storage
Notsoergonomic
With a slightly higher spending, you can definitely get a nice entry level DSLR with better image quality and so many lens options. But buying NX mini makes sense if you love clicking and sharing at spur. Very few mirrorless or DSLRs can give the kind of ...
Abstract: The camera uses a back-side illuminated CMOS sensor to snap photos at 20.5-megapixels and to record videos at Full HD resolution. Samsung has released three lenses optimised for the NX mini, and although an adaptor can be used to support its existing rang...
