    Downgrade from previous versions
  

*by M***R on Reviewed in the United States on August 12, 2023*

Firstly, the item description did not say it was refurbished. BAD VENDOR--No cookies!Secondly, I was spoiled by the S700. When it finally died, I expected the S800 to be at least as good. The battery hatch is actually flimsier and seems more prone to breakage.I cannot comment on the camera itself, as it was non-functional. Pawn shop reject? Again, SHAME on the Vendor.Item returned next day.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    If you don't like it you must be doing something wrong!
  

*by N***R on Reviewed in the United States on March 4, 2007*

I have to agree with J. Pauley's review. I've owned this camera for about six months and taken it on several long trips already. The pictures I've taken have been stunning regardless of lighting, and I couldn't be happier. I'd buy this Samsung again without reservation. 8MP for this price--with great quality photos--can't be beat!

    Horrible Camera
  

*by B***L on Reviewed in the United States on August 13, 2007*

This is our second Samsung Digital Camera. The first one broken within weeks - lens would get stuck, zoom wouldn't work, and you could not take any pictures.  When it would 'freeze' the only solution was to shut down, and restart.  Then the photo-op was gone.The camera was a Christmas gift for our daughter, and I didn't want her to have to deal with these issues.We took the camera back to the store, and because it was just after  Christmas the store was out of most of their digital cameras.  The gave us a store credit, and we later upgraded to the Samsung Digimax S800 8.1 mp. It was a bit more than the 5.0 mp, but it seemed like an incredible deal.Now less than 6 month later, the same problem, and more. The lens stays in the fully extended position now, and runs down the batteries, and if you try to adjust the zoom the camera shuts off.  There is no stop/start solution. It is now a paper weight.I was just informed it is too late to return it or exchange it. Do not be fooled by this 'Steal' , you'll just be robbed $200 like me.
