Eric, why do you say that it has more powerful processor? To me, it seems exactly the same drime iv engine of nx300. Where did you find the info?

The DPReview Preview, let me pull it up and look again, maybe they were referring to NX20.

The 'guts' of the camera are considerably different, with Samsung leveraging other divisions of the company. The DRIMeIV processor uses a single-core, 800Mhz Cortex-A9 processor, as well as a SGX540 GPU, which are similar to what you'd find inside a lower-end smartphone these days.

Oh, they were comparing to NX20, not NX300, sorry if I got anyone's hopes up.

If it is the same I imagine the buffer is, edit: but that wouldn't exclude a buffer upgrade either. Have to wait for user reports

The Galaxy NX uses the 1.6ghz 21 gigaflops version, both are the same 4000 series chip which comes in Single Dual and Quad core.. all labeled as 4 So it is possible that the NX30 or has a slightly or significantly updated chip in it. 
The NX30 seems to leverage heavily from the horrid Galaxy NX. I'd be surprised if it didn't have the same basic 1.6ghz Quad core DRIMe IV chipset. I find it odd that is mentions the DRIMeIV as a 800mhz single core processor.
