Good: seems to have good build quality
Bad: unreliable, very bad service, no refund although on guarantee
Comment: After 6 months i own it the screen messed up without ever throwing or hitting it. The camera had no scratch.
The service told me that the camera is broken and the guarantee doesn't cover it.
I'm saying again that the camera had no scratch and always kept in special g shock bag.
I also have a new Samsung smart TV and i am very afraid in case of malfunction the guarantee is nothing. I will never rely from now on Samsung's Guarantee.
The picture quality is not very satisfactory also.

Good: Excellent image quality and color, great manual mode, smart auto works fine.
Bad: Focus failure, especially in the mode movie.
Comment: Samsung wb150f is a great camera for a price decent.Have manual controls aplenty, shooting excellently well in low light, produces films reasonable (not disappoint.) To use the zoom advise, not only for her but for all compact in general, the use of a tripod.I certainly recommend this camera to a friend.A great compact camera.

Good: Massive amount of settings and useful wifi options
Bad: can be time consuming to set up shots through the menus (this is the same for all cameras except touch screens)
Comment: Bought this camera 1 month ago and have great fun playing with it. I even bought a set of 3 slr filters ; i would definately recommend the polarising filter and they only cost £6 for the lot from amazon.
The best thing is Nik Rawlinsons 50 top tips to get the best out of this snapper. Thanks

Comment: I read another review of this camera and they indicated that "Optical zoom is available while recording 720p videos with mono sound" - do you mind shedding a light on the "mono sound" aspect?
Thanks very much. I'm debating which camera to get, either this or the Olympus SZ 12/14.

Good: WiFi features. can link wirelessly to my phone and save them onto it easy
Bad: screen resolution. you won't see the quality on the camera screen.
Comment: Pictures look amazing on my phone. Wish I had excuses to take more pictures. I got it for £150 from pc world. It looks so nice in white too!

Comment: Any idea's how this compares to the Cooplix S8200? They are both well-rated on the site and superzoom's and I'd like to pick one up for a holiday in April. Any thoughts as to how they stack up?

Comment: Sorry to undermine your investigative work tuxtester, but I've looked into this and the price we've listed is correct.

Good: Samsung and quality
Bad: The price
Comment: The trouble is, it isn't available for £190. CNET could have spent a few moments checking this but they didn't bother. This is disappointing trend on CNET.
This product is not available from a shop or on-line for £190.
If you buy this product on-line, with delivery, we would pay £220-ish.
At that price, the ability to send (and spoof) e-mails from a wifi hotspot is not much of a unique selling point.
I got my pricing information by spending a few moments on Amazon.co.uk and google.co.uk.

Good: Great Picture Quality....WiFi.....Samsung!
Bad: Nothing
Comment: This looks like a great buy.
And will be looking in to getting one!
The WiFi looks like a great feature......
Being a Samsung helps too since I've already got the Mv800 and love it......hope the next version of it will have WiFi though.
Ps. Has Cnet ever made a proper (indepth) review of the Mv800?
