If you're looking for great picture quality for the Galaxy Camera's $500 price tag
You're probably going to be disappointed. Its battery life is fairly short. To get the most from it
You'll want to pay for a monthly data plan
Expensive. Large. Touch-based control system is unusual and unwieldy for a camera. Slow 3G connectivity
No 4G. Short battery life
Pricey. Big. Touch-based control system is unusual and unwieldy for a camera

Awkward manual shooting
Constant notifications can be irritating

Sturdy, destinctive design, Impressive 21x optical zoom, Giant 4.8 " super LCD screen, Full Android 4.1 on-board
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
I have to say I have really enjoyed using this unit and it certainly takes excellent quality photos but can't see myself ever taking the plunge and getting one. I'm not really a huge photographer but can appreciate that for bloggers or keen social network...

Rather expensive, A large device, Touch, based control system is unwieldy
The Samsung Galaxy Camera appeals to a very specific type of photographer. If getting your photos online moments after they're shot is of paramount importance, then the always-on 3G data connectivity and Android operating system will be a boon to your ph...
As connected as cameras get, Android experience takes the operating system to a whole new level, excellent price when considering the SGS3, great for multimedia playback, in-camera video editor
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
Android and connectivity is a delight, but the camera - the supposed core of the device - is the Galaxy Camera's weak point. It's good in use, and the rear screen looks ace, but the final images lack the sharpness they ought to have. There's so much po...
Excellent touchscreen. All the benefits of Android and associated apps. 3G connectivity. Range of video recording frame rates, including low-res 120fps. 21x optical zoom
Short battery life. Overall photo quality is OK, but may not be worth the price for some users
