Overall, the sporty and slim figure of the Samsung W200, along with the water, dust and shock proof features make from this camcorder a great choice....

A solidly-built camcorder with decent image quality, the W200 has intuitive controls and a good selection of features, and its underwater abilities are lots of fun too ...
Excellent in low light, Underwater filter, Good waterproofing and toughness specifications
Digital zoom, Few manual controls
In many respects, Samsung's W200 is just another toughened, waterproof pocket Internet camcorder. But it is equal to the best in its specifications in this area. It also offers the best performance in low light that we've seen in any camcorder costing und...
Robust, waterproof and shockproof; smart user interface; flipout USB,
Stiff shutter release button; no internal storage (uses MicroSD)

Great quality 1080p videos, Affordable price, 5 megapixel still photos, Rugged designed water proof, sand/dust proof, shock proof, fog proof, Simple and straightforward to use
Would be nice to see a few more accessories included like a wrist strap and a USB extension cable

Waterproof to ten feet and drop-proof to 6,5 feet, Records in 1080p or 720p resolution, Uses microSD memory cards, Standard mini HDMI connector,
Poor video quality, Jittery when zooming, Issues with controls, Flip-out USB plug-in connector is recessed and difficult to maneuver in some computers,
The Samsung HMX-W200 is one of the few pocket camcorders that can survive falls and capture underwater video, but with video quality that doesn’t live up to its 1080p promise and some other issues, you can do better. ...

Compact1080p video modeCheap for this category
Jelly effect in videosNot nearly rugged enoughNo manual controls at all
It's a respectable underwater offering for the price, but true argonauts are probably better off spending more for something that's constructed for serious abuse....
