The editors didn't like
Questionable mechanics of buttons/controls
Tough to access some controls with gloves
Just adequate video capabilities
No GPS
Price
$1
299.95 (body only). $1
699.95 as a kit with an 1855mm FUJINON lens
Fairly expensive
$400 more than the X-E2
Exposure compensation dial is easily bumped
Four-way controller buttons are hard to press
Significant viewfinder lag for burst shooting
No raw files above ISO 6
400
Default settings strongly limit JPEG dynamic range
Some of the controls are too hard to manipulate
Its general performance doesn't stand out
And the movie quality disappoints
Mediocre video quality and adjustments
Retro controls can be confusing for some users
More expensive than standard X-T1. A little slow to start up. No built-in flash. Geotagging could be better implemented. On the pricey side
Battery life is only OK. No builtin flash (but it does come with a little detachable one). Steep learning curve for novices. Expensive for its sensor size
Poor battery life
Some fiddly buttons
Limited video options
Rear buttons are small
And almost flush to camera body
Fourway controller is rather 'spongey' in feel
Awkwardly positioned
Locking ISO dial is inconvenient (especially with large lenses)

Abstract: When Fujifilm released the original X-T1 in 2014, we were very impressed with its classic combination of dials and buttons, outstanding feature set, great image quality, and one of the best electronic viewfinders available on the market. The price was a l...
The X-T1 is for obsessive photographers. Photographers who don’t blink. As such, it is the ideal tool for making images of elusive street cats. From the ergonomics to the external controls to the refreshingly simple menus, this thing lets you get on with your work...

The Fujifilm X-T1 Graphite Silver Edition is a beautiful camera, but it doesn't offer any performance advantages over the standard X-T1....
As far an investment goes, I would not hesitate to recommend the Fuji X-T1. You’ll get a very good camera with great performance, and it produces excellent images. I believe that 2015 will be another fun year for us as photographers. I would not be surprised to see Fuji offer a 24 MP version X-T2...
The new Fujifilm X-T1 Graphite Silver seems like a relatively minor update of the original all-black version released at the start of 2014, but the new electronic shutter, natural live view mode, and the Classic Chrome film simulation are all very welcom...
Mediocre video quality and adjustments, retro controls can be confusing for some users
Fuji’s latest X-model, the $1300 X-T1 is fast, sealed against the elements and primed for action wherever you go. Not everyone is keen on retro digital cameras, but those who are — be they enthusiasts or pros — can tap some analogue nostalgia ...
