ePhotozine – 31 March’08 – reviews the Samsung i70 and liked the slinky design. Here is the review verdict -
While the color test showed accurate and normal looking captures the overall images did seem a little on the soft side. It also seemed to have a problem achieving a good focus. In the end the review notes that if you’re looking for top photographic quality you might want to look at another camera.
Cameras.co.uk – 16 October’07 – reviews the Samsung i70 and notes that Samsung has won awards for this camera but the award was probably for style, not picture quality. Here is the review verdict -
I was disappointed with the sharpness of the photos and also felt some of the photos were on the dark side too. Therefore I feel unable to recommend this camera.
