Manual of product SMX-C10
Editorial note
The Samsung SMX-C10 stands out for its lightness and compact dimensions, weighing only 162 g, making it an ideal travel companion. Its 10x optical zoom and image stabilizer allow for capturing sharp videos and photos, even in motion, thus providing appreciated flexibility during various types of shooting. The USB 2.0 interface also facilitates file transfer, making the overall user experience positive. However, several drawbacks are to be considered. The maximum video resolution of 720 x 480 pixels is relatively low, which may disappoint those seeking higher image quality. Additionally, the lack of night mode and built-in flash limits shooting capabilities in low-light conditions. The internal memory of 0 MB requires the use of external memory cards, which can be a disadvantage for some users. In terms of performance, the battery life of 2.66 hours is adequate for normal use. However, the value for money is acceptable, but the limitations in terms of resolution and memory may leave some people wanting. Overall, the Samsung SMX-C10 offers a good balance between portability and features, but it may not meet the expectations of the most demanding users in terms of image quality and flexibility.Score details
