Samsung slid its ‘multi-proof’ W200 pocket cam out a couple of months back, and we’ve spent the past few weeks testing it out in a place that’s no stranger to water (read: the Big Island of Hawaii). Hailed as a waterproof and shockproof 1080p pocket camcorder, it most resembles a ruggedized version of Cisco’s now-deceased Flip HD, and it’s definitely a heck of a lot more petite than Canon’s PowerShot D10 – a waterproof P&S that we reviewed back in June of '09. Aside from putting high-def recording capabilities in the palm of your pruney hand, the W200’s other key selling point is the trifecta of digits to the left of the decimal. At just $150 on the street, it’s certainly classifiable as a bargain in the category, but does it deliver results worthy of laud? Read on for our take!
