Samsung i7: Compare prices

By Rich Trenholm on 22/02/2008

More Samsung reviews , RRP: AU$469.00

The good:

  • Large 3-inch touchscreen
  • Novelty value
  • Competent camera
  • Generous internal memory

The bad:

  • No frills devices
  • Lacklustre tour guide

The bottomline:

The Samsung i7 is fun and unusual, but the twist-screen gimmick may be lost on some. Camera, MP3 and multimedia playback functions are from the no-frills shelf, but save you juggling multiple devices. The high price tag, however, is only justified if you value convenience and novelty value over great pictures.

      Canon EOS 50D

      Come October 1 the 50D will sit atop Canon's APS-C digital SLR tree. It gains a higher resolution 3-inch LCD, face detection and a 15.1-megapixel sensor over the 40D, which will continue to soldier on.

    • Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W150

      Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W150

      Available in black, red or silver, the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W150 offers 5x optical zoom, face detection and optical image stabilisation amongst its feature set.

      Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H50

      Plentiful features with all manner of adjustable options, entertaining gimmicks and rock-solid shooting make us like this camera a lot. If you could stick an SD card slot in there, it'd be one of the best superzooms we've seen. Sadly, it loses marks for the proprietary connections.

      Fujifilm FinePix S8100fd

      We're actually struggling to think of anything bad about the 10-megapixel zooming behemoth that is the Fujifilm FinePix S8100fd. It's a versatile and reliable camera that gets looks, features, image quality and controls right.
