I absolutely love my little camera! i am a major picture taker and yes i can use my phone but the battery only lasts sooo long! I love that i can take up close pics while being sooo far away bc the zoom on this baby is AWESOME! i love the abilty to take different style pics for instance blk & white , sephia...you name it . Like instagram except on your camera. My sister and sister-in-law both got one bc of me...they also love it. oh and i also use it to make calls...when i cant find my phone!

Really havent used this all that much yet. Got it for a trip. Ill have to see how it goes after that. I do love that it is so similar to my Samsung Note phone. If you know how to use that phone, you pretty much know how to use this. People ask me, "Why not just use your phone, then?" Well, this has so many more features! I love that (with WiFi) I can post pictures to FB and email pictures. This is more like using a camera than my phone is - the way you hold it, etc. I do wish it had a viewer v just a screen, but Ill make do. As with all Samsung devices, it does hang up at times. I have to do a re-start to get it going again. This hasnt happened too many times, but it does happen. It takes awesome pictures.

I couldnt wait to receive my camera. I actually owned this exact camera until about 3 weeks ago while on vacation, my tripod fell over bringing my camera down face first and now the lens dont close any more. I was totally sick just thinking about the loss of my camera. I checked on Amazon to purchase another one, however, Samsung does not sell it anymore. And then I was referred to Deal Stop and this is where my dreams came true to own this camera again. Pictures and everything is great just as I knew this camera was capable of.

Really fantastic little camera. I bought this for my husband as a Christmas gift after our daughter was born, hes a stay-at-home papa, so it was a very self-serving gift (He emails me photos when Im at work). It takes great shots! Beautiful nature pics, and I LOVE the kids mode for taking pictures of our kiddo. Overall, Highly, highly recommended.

LOVE the camera - takes great pictures. Will be using it on our honeymoon next week. Only reason I gave it a 4 star was because I did not see anywhere in the product description that it was missing the flash cover on top. Not a huge deal, but I made sure to read the item description many times before ordering and never once saw that.

Speedy response sending my order. This camera is much better than my last Samsung, and earlier model. I am enjoying it, basically a mini computer camera. I downloaded Facebook onto it and can now set up albums, upload 30 pictures at a time. Loving it! The display is big and it isnt hard to navigate the settings. I have pro cameras but I like too keep a decent WiFi pocket camera with decent zoom and pixel count! Cellphones just cant deliver gat pictures yet!

I love this camera! I had another Galaxy Id been using for several years & shame on me dropped it on the concrete. the lens was out of focus & I was told that it would be easier to purchase new than have it fixed?? not sure if thats true or not. I bought my daugher one also. We use them for work every single day! I couldnt live without it. I bought the protection this time.

While I want this camera..the one that was sent was the international model. Although you could change language to English most everything was defaulted to Chinese. Sending it back. They should tell you up front if it is an international model or us version. Not happy.

Update 4/15/2018 - dropping rating to 1 star The OS for this camera doesnt appear to be keeping up with apps. OneDrive no longer works - so my photos are no longer being backed up automatically. I expect this trend to continue as apps continue to get updated. That significantly lowers the value of this camera - its only a few years old and its already out of date. ----- Im torn between giving this camera three or four stars. What I like about it is the 21x analog zoom. In fact, this is the main reason I purchased it. Phone cameras work pretty well, but with the analog zoom you can take a lot of pictures that just wouldnt be possible with a phone camera. It also has the full Android OS, and a number of great included camera apps. The picture taking app has 35MM type settings, so you have a lot of flexibility in how you take your pictures. And the very large screen is nice to work with. The single biggest con is the lens quality. As much money as you pay for this device - and since it serves almost entirely as a camera - you would think that Samsung would have given it a high quality lens. Most of the pictures I took were pretty good, but a number of pictures with the sun in them had quality issues that I didnt see in my Nokia phone cam. In the end, if I could have a digital camera with great camera qualities (including a better lens), a 21x zoom, but no OS other than transferring photos to other devices (via Wifi or card), for about the same price, I would purchase that over this camera. I havent done research to see if such a camera exists but - if I find one - I will post an update to this review with that information.
