Digital Camera Reviews : Sanyo Xacti E6

Sanyo Xacti E6
Steve's Digicams reviews the Sanyo Xacti E6 and writes - ' The 6-megapixel SANYO Xacti E6 digital camera features a full 3-inch color LCD screen – the largest in its class – which provides an approximately 230% larger viewing area than a 2-inch screen. Such a big screen is ideal for composing and framing the subject, checking the captured photo and sharing pictures with others. The bright, exceptionally viewable trans-reflective LCD screen incorporates a low-temperature polysilicon liquid crystal design known for its excellent color reproduction.'

LetsGoDigital also reviews the Sanyo Xacti E6 and writes - 'The design of the camera is rather sober. It features smooth round shapes and the housing consists of a matte aluminium material. Without a doubt the large sized monitor is perfectly apt for sharing your photos with family and friends. The camera lacks an optical viewfinder, but the 3-inch display makes you forget about this immediately. The monitor is dominating the entire back of the Xacti E6. We can only cheer at the new trend of equipping digital cameras with large sized screens.'

CNET also reviews the Sanyo Xacti E6 and writes - 'At half the price, the Sanyo Xacti VPC-E6 might rank as an above-average snapshot camera; in its current price range, it's competing against much better, fuller-featured models--and coming up short.'

Ouch! Sounds like CNET does not like the E6 at all. But the screen seems to be a good point all around - 3" on such a small camera seems even bigger. At $349 MSRP at launch, it seems to be a decent, if not spectacular, buy.
