Nikon Coolpix S800c review

 

Smart camera features Android operating system

Android OS ; 10x optical zoom ; Touchscreen

Poor battery life ; Expensive

These days, compact camera manufacturers are fighting what is pretty much a losing battle with phone makers to produce a quick snapping tool.

Nikon Coolpix S800c

 

As mobile phones begin to penetrate what once was “camera-only” ground, the proliferation of such smartphones is said to be the demise of compact camera sales. The solution? Camera inoculation. At least that's where the Nikon Coolpix S800c has gone -...

Responsive touchscreen, capable 10x optical zoom, better-than Smartphone pictures, browsing plus apps and sharing all possible, 1.7GB internal storage

Too expensive, battery life not good enough, slow start-up time, no manual controls

Conceptually courageous, the Android OS feels like it’s forged rather than forced into this camera concept. Android - even version 2.3 - works as a great base to run apps, share images and much more.

Nikon Coolpix S800c review

 

The Nikon Coolpix S800c has the feel of a camera rushed through to be the first of its kind. It offers a glimpse of how smart cameras can revolutionise photography, which is an exciting prospect given that the technology will probably be developed...

Nikon Coolpix S800c

 

The Nikon Coolpix S800c is a cameraphone, but not as we know it, Jim. This 16 megapixel point and shoot compact camera sports a 3.5-inch touchscreen around the back, but look closely and you'll see it's running Android. That's right, Google's massively...

The Nikon Coolpix S800c sounds like a wonderful idea on paper, but in practice, it’s a jack of all trades and a master of none. Nikon’s lack of smartphone experience really shows here: the old hardware, out of date software and lack of tight...

Nikon Coolpix S800c Digital Camera Review

 

The Nikon Coolpix S800c is a digital camera powered by Android, has 10x optical zoom, Wi-Fi and 16 megapixel sensor. Daniel Bell reviews.

Android OS makes the S800c much more than just a camera; Large, easy-to-use touch screen; Decent image quality with good colour reproduction; GPS & Wi-Fi; Good amount of optical zoom; Can connect to an iOS device via Wi-Fi

10cm minimum focusing distance means you can't get really close for macro shots
