The Haze Removal tool is the only thing in this update that I can muster much enthusiasm for, and I wouldn't be remotely tempted to fork out the £65 upgrade price for it. To give it a more positive spin, if you own a recent version of Photoshop Elements...

Oneshot adjustments, textures and frames, mobile albums, enhanced social media, auto smart tone, Adobe Camera RAW processing.
Pet Eye a good idea but not that great in practice, large space required for install, relatively expensive, no GPU acceleration, no Retina Display support
It's more social media-aware and more connected, but this isn't as revolutionary an update as earlier editions. While it borrows from Photoshop in Content-aware tools, Elements doesn't always deliver as impressive results. The one-shot adjustments and gui...
Abstract: While the tool of choice for many professionals working with digital images is Adobe Photoshop, the pricing of this product puts it out of the reach of mere mortals. Fortunately Adobe, being aware of the financial restraints many of us have to work und...
Effects, textures and frames add fun ways to edit photos; new features such as Content-Aware Move and Pet Eye are frequently useful; new Guided Edits are impressive; ability to open most images in Camera Raw; added mobile features means access to photos everywhere.
Some textures, frames and Guided Edits are gimmicky; interface is clumsy and not intuitive; Revel feature costly if more than 50 photos is required; Auto Smart Tone results aren't great; quite pricey considering cheaper alternatives are available
While the user interface could use some tweaking to make it more intuitive, Adobe's Photoshop Elements 12 does have many useful photo-editing and organising tools for hobbyists who don't want to fork out for the professional version of Photoshop. We'd sug...

Suits users of all levels, Organizer is a powerful cataloguing tool, Some new effects and tools are really worth having
The free Revel (mobile) account is limited, Advanced users could feel frustrated, Organizer doesn't mesh with Adobe Bridge or Lightroom
Adobe claims Photoshop Elements is the number consumer photo editing software, and it does deserve this success. Sometimes it seems as if the successive versions follow just a little too quickly on the heels of the one before, and the changes are increme...
Easy installation & setup, Includes Elements 12 Organizer, Multiple interfaces can be toggled to cater to beginners as well as advanced users, Extremely userfriendly, RAW file support, Affordable, Offers many of the advanced features you'd find in the ful
Interface is rather bland and boring, Can become resource intensive & sluggish
Overall, I think Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 offers a real bang for your buck and is one of the best photo editing programs in this price-range. If you are on a budget or simply don't have the knowledge or experience to jump into the full version of Photo...

This program learns from your preferences, and the Guided mode gives you step, by, step instructions on what tools to use to accomplish different editing tasks.
You cannot create actions, and the included photo organizer, Adobe Revel, is a separate program, adding an additional step to the editing process.
Photoshop Elements 12 is ideal for beginners and powerful enough for veterans. The flexible, professional tools let you manipulate settings with precise detail and enable you to unleash your creative potential....
