Samsung PL120 Digital Camera Review

The Samsung PL120 is a competitively priced point-and-shoot distinguished by its front-facing LCD for framing self-portraits. None of this camera's test scores stood out, but consistent numbers across the board make it a fantastic value for casual...

Samsung PL120

Consistently decent, if not extraordinary, scores across the board make for a good value

An extra front-facing LCD; Fairly accurate color

Samsung Dual-Screen Camera

Beth self camera

Gave this to my wife (I am a vanity facilitator) and she takes her picture everywhere and occasionally a picture of me or surroundings. But mostly of herself haha. The dual camera is invaluable. But now she has eyes on my Samsung tablet because it does...

Perfect Christmas gift under $100

At the time of my purchase, this item was going for less than $100. Amazing Christmas gift. Bought it for my sister and she loved it. It has facial recognition, as well as the "smile" function that many cameras nowadays have. (you smile and it snaps a...
