Excellent Wi-Fi implementation. Slim design. Tilting touch-screen display. Sharp image output. Good high ISO performance. 10fps burst capture.
Limited physical controls. A little slow to focus in dim light. Poky startup speed. Limited lens library. External battery charger not included
The Samsung NX Mini is a compact, Wi-Fi-connected mirrorless camera that runs circles around smartphones, but manual control is a bit of a chore....
Long battery life, Surprisingly good dynamic range, Outputs great looking JPEG photos, Simple Wi-Fi sharing options,
Poor handling of highlights in post, With only three lenses, the NX Mini's future is questionable, Metering performance is poor and unreliable, Expect to edit Raw images a lot in post
We rate this camera 3 out of 5.At the end of the day I realized the NX Mini was not made for me. It's not made for gearheads or anyone looking for a lighter package to complement their full-frame camera. No, the NX Mini is designed for shooters looking to...

The NX Mini has a super-slick design that isn't overdone and makes you want to carry it around. The large one-inch sensor produces images far and above cellphone capability. Despite being aimed at beginners, there are still a hearty amount of controls in
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"
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...
To some extent the Samsung NX mini will always be a balance of compromise. Its small size means you get a smaller than average sensor for a CSC, which in turn adversely affects image quality. Fortunately this isn't severely reduced and is certainly a maj...

Lush but not oversaturated color, Good high ISO performance for its clas, Sli, attractive design handles well
Detail does not compare to that of larger mirrorless camera, Autoexposure sometimes fail, 9mm slim lens distorts photos and limits shooting option, Not suited for nighttime photos or vide, Poor at capturing the selfies that are meant to be a key feature
Despite high photo quality and sophisticated controls, this selfie-friendly shooter awkwardly straddles the cellphone and 'real' camera worlds. Samsung's NX mini mirrorless camera fills the space between cellphones and point-and-shoots on one s...

Awesome Self Shot selfie mode, Super small and light, Flip-up touchscreen with multitouch
Ultra plasticky buttons, Too many pointless Smart modes, Half-baked online sharing and Wi-Fi
The Samsung NX Mini is a good camera for taking selfies and vlogging — perfect for today's Instagram and YouTube-obsessed generation. Plus, you get Adobe Lightroom 5 (a $145 value) for free...
The GF2's biggest problem is its name, because it succeeds a highly-regarded enthusiast's camera while using a substantially simplified design. However it's important to appreciate that the GF2 really isn't intended as a GF1-owner's upgrade option, in...

Image quality is very good in JPEG and outstanding in RAW. Video is excellent. The general concept of a camera that bridges the point and shooter and the serious amateur is well executed. The touch screen control set, including onetouch focus, expose and
The absence of a proper viewfinder, even as an option, makes shooting in bright sunlight a hit and miss affair. The relatively low resolution and brightness of the LCD tends to blackout in sunlight

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...
