Samsung Galaxy Camera is basically a camera built on Android 4.1 JellyBean. It does not support GSM voice communication. Rest of the features of a smartphone are there. Therefore, you can term it as a tablet with a 16 MP camera. But tablet would not be too appropriate as it sports mere 4.8 inch Super AMOLED display which is too small as compared to a 7 inch tablet. Therefore, consider it as a hybrid device with Android inside.
You know what it means, you can surf internet, play games or watch movies everything. Best part of Samsung Galaxy camera is easy shooting and quick sharing. You shoot a picture and send it to others in just a click. If you are not too passionate about using easy share feature you must head down to a DSLR. It’s better not to compare it with a DSLR. Price of Samsung Galaxy Camera is Rs. 29,200. At this price you will get a NIKON or CANON DSLR with interchangeable lens. For passionate photographers that would be best alternative.
