WiFi performance is poor
on January 10, 2012

This camera is light-weight and very small. It's easy to put it in my pocket. It has a lot of social networking features.
I Google WiFi camera, and it seems this is the only one avaiable. I visited a local electronics store, this was the only WiFi camera they carried.
I bought this camera mainly because of the WiFi feature. I wanted to give this as a present to my mom, thinkig the WiFi and email features would make her life easier. She would be able to send me pictures with just a few taps.However, the followings are below my expectation:
1. The WiFi works only with a few yards from my AP. My laptop and smart phone have no problem of WiFi access anywhere in my house, but I have to use this camera very close to the AP.
2. It takes a long time (10+ seconds) to establish WiFi connection for sending each email. The WiFi design is far below a regular WiFi enabled device.
3. I have read a few product reviews online saying that you can use the GUI like a smart phone. I didn't realize it meant old fashion smart phone with a stylus. Had the production introduction mentioned a pen is required, I wouldn't overexpect it. I don't know how I can carry the pen with the camera.

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

WiFi is not great
on January 8, 2012
Posted by: mamajana
'm not sure if I would recommend this camera. It takes good pictures and is relatively easy to use, but the wifi feature is unreliable and only works in limited locations. And, wifi is the the whole reason I purchased this particular camera. It came with a trial of boingo and that never worked at all! Very disappointing.
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, Lightweight
Cons: Did not meet expectations
I would recommend this to a friend!

Good camera for the money, but a couple of quirks

The SH100 has an intuitive interface and easy connectivity to social media sites. I was expecting a simpler way to connect from camera to PC over wireless than a client server software on the PC. The software would not run on my XP computer and I had to uninstall it. Also, the cable to connect directly to USB is of a proprietary connector design. Make sure you buy a micro SD card for it, and you will be set.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Inexpensive, Lightweight
Cons: proprietary usb cable

NOT OVERLY SATISFIED BUT SATISFIED

Relative to its competitors for similar product, the price does not match the design. Noted unnecessary apps, such as choosing which app the photo will be shot using. Was pleased to see the option to change the pixel size of the picture to be taken. Did not come with SD card or much internal store (6.9MB). One of the lightest cameras I have owned. And I am really pleased with the wi-fi capability, take a picture and upload it directly to my social networks.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Realistic color, Lightweight, wi-fi capability
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Too much of nothing
on January 4, 2012
Posted by: StellaTravel
Too many unnecessary features and some that are redundant, picture response slow (have to wait seconds for it to take the picture after you press the button), touch screen needs to be jammed, pushed hard, to react/scroll. Although it feels fragile, like the lightweight design. A decent camera but will most likely stick with the companies known for their cameras in the future. I wouldn't recommend to a friend based on my experience with it. Too many cameras out there you can get for the same price that are better quality.
Pros: Inexpensive, Lightweight
Cons: Did not meet expectations
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
