Fro me I have the NX1000 and evrything is good, except the high miga pixel , 20 MP is too high !

I wish Samsung will reduce the Miga Pixel to 16MP only in the new sensor .

20 MP is hardly different from 16 MP. Total pixels are only 20% less, and resolution on one edge only about 11% less. These differences are almost negligible. Even 16 to 24 MP is not a huge difference. 6 to 12 is noticeable, 12 to 24 is noticeable. 16 to 20 is pretty negligible.

I really like the NX20. Good performance across the range, even pretty good at high ISO. I shoot only RAW so have no comment on JPEG performance, but I am happy with the performance from ISO 100 to 3200.

My biggest drawback with the NX20 camera is the performance is a little slower than it could be. Supposedly the new processor in the NX300 (upcoming) is much faster and allows features like focus peaking, etc. This should help greatly for RAW shooters like myself, if it can move the data to memory card a little faster and not lock out some of the controls when doing so. I am waiting for an NX30 or equivalent camera.

I have no problem with the sensor in my NX210.

It's good through ISO3200, although at ISO1600 and above I get the best results by turning off the in-camera NR and running the JPEG through Noise Ninja.

Apart from the slow write speeds, the only things that really bother me are the greenish cast I get when I use the manual WB, and the brain-dead manual focusing.
