Great Camera for Professionals and Amateurs alike!

If you are looking for a camera that has high end value without having to get into the high end prices and technology, this is the one for you! After having this camera for only a day, I am in love! A camera that has the Android operating system along side argueably the best brand in mobile devices and you have a tag team combination that beats down any other camera in its path. The 21X optical zoom is breathtaking and astonishing! But the real winner is saving time in uploading pictures and videos straight to cloud storages or netowkring sites alike!
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight, 21 x optical zoom, android os, instant sharing
I would recommend this to a friend!

Incredible Camera with Great Zoom
on July 7, 2013
Posted by: JayTChal
I am absolutely crazy about this product. The clarity of the photos is flawless, the 21 optical zoom is unreal, and the user interfaces are intuitive and aesthetic. The familiar smart phone navigation is a huge plus for tech gurus. Direct access to social media and email is the new can't-do-without. I give this camera my strongest recommendation.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color, great zoom, bang for your buck, internet access
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great product for it's intended use

Picked this up to shoot video for YT. For a while now I've been using zip ties or other forms of propping my phone or Note 10.1 up to shoot. Got tired of it, wanted a camera I could properly mount to my stand and remembered this little gem we saw at CES 2013.
With the touch screen & Android based OS, it's very Galaxy phone feeling. Which is great and easy to manipulate if you are already in the Galaxy. Shot great pictures for the most part, with only really low light suffering in image. It shot good to above average, in well lit, video. Again it suffered in low light, but that is par the course with pretty much any Android or "smart" based camera. You need to step up to a professional series camera if you are working at dusk or later anyways.
For a quick point and shoot that can do that job well and then some, it's a perfect around the house, beach or campground item. With it's Wi-Fi you can direct upload to social media and even chat away with it. It isn't a phone, so you can't actually make or receive calls, but then...there is always other online messaging services you could use on it.
Two biggest drawbacks of the item I found were to be the lack of staying power with the battery, so a spare or a reliable power source nearby is necessary. The other factor I found most detrimental was it's inability to double as a directly inputted to pc web cam. You had to go about getting to work as a "streaming" cam through Wi-Fi and third party software and that degraded the quality. I was hoping to use this as a studio cam as well for live quality stream events. The picture never got clear enough for my liking, but that was a third party software issue and not that of the actual camera.
Familiar in feel and in operation the Galaxy Camera is a decent choice for something a step above in quality and features then just a cheap point and shoot.

Best smart camera ever

I could not believe my eyes how clear the pictures are. I love that you can have apps especially Instagram and Facebook because I'm such a social network freak and have to upload pictures all the time. And what easy faster way than to upload the most clearest picture straight from your camera! Yes iPhones can do this but it is definitely not even close to the same quality as this camera. And the screen is huge bigger than an iPhone screen. I love that there are no complicated buttons on the exterior, it makes it look a lot cleaner and even sexy!!! Buy this camera, I'm totally in love with mine!
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Durable, Realistic color
