NX20's weaknesses?

so, i'm patiently weighing my options on buying a new camera, the nx20 being one of them.

after reading around, i just wanted to clarify- does the NX20 have any major weaknesses now that that firmware cut the write speed in half?

just what i've formed as my opinion so far, not a must read in order to answer my question so skip if you want:

i'm not bothered by the wi-fi, nor am i endeared with it.

sensor could be better, but that's always gonna be the case, it's plenty good now.

JPEGs are good for me, only thing that might bother me is if it smears as horribly as the nx200 does at 3200 and above

RAWs could be smaller, but with new write speeds, mostly will be a non-issue for me.

EVF not the best, but if its clearer and faster refreshing than the NX10's, i'll be happy.

articulated screen, good. AF speed, not up to M4/3 standards, but still very good.

body ergonomics, if at least on the same level as nx10, i'll be happy

i think button/menu responsiveness/speed is faster, so that eliminates another one of my cons with the NX10

only thing left is the size, i've been debating between a rangefinder and built-in EVF model as my next purchase. I've been realizing I don't actually use the EVF that much, but I do see myself using the articulated screen.
