jclift's Review of Che-ez! Snap

7th Oct 2008

Overall Rating

1.5 stars
  • Value for money
    1.5 stars
Good Points

Portability
"Cute" miniaturization factor
Decent (for the resolution) photos in ambient and artificial light.


Bad Points

Can only be charged with USB connection.
Hi-res mode is only 640 x 480 and that's only 25 pics - 60 pics if you're in low-res mode (320 x 200), which is too coarse for any reproduction bigger than a 2-1/2 x 3-1/2 in. (64 x 89 mm).
Battery is not replaceable - it is a Ni-MH custom thin wafer cell that apparently is proprietary to this package.
Drivers will not work with Windows Vista.


General Comments

I've used this camera on and off for the last 2-1/2 years. Not impressed with any feature other than portability. I carried it in my car as a backup to the cell phone camera in the event of an accident - I carry an adapter with a USB connector to charge the camera one day a week. After 2 years of temperature variations from 25F to 125F (-4C to 52C) the battery will not hold a charge. I thought it would be replaceable button cells, but it's a thin rechargeable wafer that does not lend itself to replacement with ANY commercial battery.
I had been downloading pictures with an XP OS computer because Vista doesn't recognize the original drivers. Haven't found upgrade drivers anywhere.
