NX20/200 - MobileLink app updated 1 Sep 2015

Just to share,

For those of u NX20/200 camera owners, MobileLink app had been updated 1 Sep 2015.

Now it works well, also its even better than the newer Samsung Smart Camera app in that it transfers the Full-size JPEGs over to smartphone/tablet

Samsung NX20

Re: NX20/200 - MobileLink app updated 1 Sep 2015

seems its 0.3mb larger

but it does not downsize the photo to 1+ mb like smart camera app (for nx30/300)

5500000/1024/1024=5.245

It's the difference between how programs present MB (10^6 or 2^20 bytes).

Cannot find the MobileLink in Playstore.

Tried SMART CAMERA and CAMERA Manager but both fail to connect my NX20.

Can anyone connect NX20 to Andriod mobile phone now?

How does this app compare to the other mobile camera app for these cameras?

Hey Marky! (are you markuspix on youtube??)

To the best of my knowledge, NX20 can only use this app to transfer photos

The newer models were able to use Samsung Camera Manager (the last of its kind)

But, as I shared a few years ago, the NX20 using MobileLink transfers photos in their original size, whereas NX30 using other Samsung apps, resized the photos to less than 2MB per file.

cheers

No, I'm not Markuspix, but his videos are very interesting.

The app Samsung smart camera app used to offer remote controls as well as transferring original size images, but it doesn't always work well.

It's still in the play store - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.samsungimaging.connectionmanager
