You've Got To Be Kidding!
By ladybugVerified Reviewer from houston, tx on 11/14/2008

None

Long Lag Time, Poor Operation in Low Light, Short Battery Life, Viewer Too Small, Weak Construction

Child's pretend camera
Describe Yourself:

No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I don't even think a kid would like it--Very frustrating. How can you say the value was $**.**, a child's pretend camera is the only use.

 
You should be ashamed!!!

Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I got this phone thru a promotional offer -- it is supposed to be valued at [$]. It is really only worth about $10. the picture is LOUSY, cloudy, dark...ANY camera phone would take a better picture than this camera. I read the previous reviews but thought maybe I could give it to my 9yr old nephew for xmas...BUT NOW, I would be embarrassed for a child to receive this piece of garbage as a gift. [...] You could have given away paper or pens instead and made people happy instead of falsely claiming the phone takes "great pictures"...what a lie!!!!I will be doing business elsewhere from now on -- you guys suck!

 
Camera is a pice of Trash [...]

Trash

No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Staples should be embarrassed for representing that this plastic camera has an [$] dollar value. I should have used the $25 off coupon. The camera comes with poorly translated intstructions. The instructions refer to buttons that are not on this camera. There is no zoom (which is on almost any camara over $30.00). Can't see the image on the view finder.[...]

This is a Scam.
By Golden BlueVerified Reviewer from San Jose, CA on 9/26/2008
Cons:
Difficult To Setup, Flimsy Construction, Hard To Use, Inefficient
Describe Yourself:

Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

There is nothing good about this camera -- My impression of this camera is that it's a "Cracker Jack" box type camera used basically to scam customers into purchasing a certain amount of product from [...]. It's sort of like the "Dick Tracy collectible X-ray ring.You don't really do anything with it. It's just a cute prize.Good thing I really needed all the stuff I purchased, and the camera was "free".. . There's no branding on the package, the camera, or the software. There's software they expect you to install on your machine without knowing where the SW came from. No way...They do not tell you the part number (to be able to look at reviews) until you order the thing. [...].It is cheap, plastic and flimsy. The card does not read in a regular multifunction flash drive, the gold pins are a unusual footprint.The instructions are no good.The USB slot does not close properly. It does not come with a strap or a case (both of which would be more valuable than the camera)The sad part is its life is about 3 days in a packing box and then 1000 years in a land fill. Why make stuff like this? It's a waste of resources.

Not worth much...
By RobinVerified Reviewer from Colorado on 9/3/2008
Pros:
Good for kids to learn on
Cons:
Long Lag Time, Poor Operation in Low Light, Small LCD Screen, Weak Construction
Describe Yourself:
Casual user
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Promotional item... It is not worth the asking price.

I figured it would not be very good quality to start with since it was part of a promo, and my intent was to give it my son to play with. He enjoys it. It's fairly easy to use but the images are grainy and it does not work well in general.

Glad it was free!

Cons:
Poor Operation in Low Light, Small LCD Screen, Weak Construction
Best Uses:
Child to learn with, Fun
Describe Yourself:
Hobbyist/Enthusiast
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

This is an absurdly cheap camera. It isn't worth the listed price. But, since it was part of a spend so much get this free promotion, I'm not complaining! Just warning those who might buy it!It's great for a child to learn to use a camera though. Better than handing my 3 year old [$] Sony!When it started up it had the exact same display the Disney camera he got for Christmas had! Clearly not a high end product.
