THE CAMERA IS IN VERY GOOD COSMETIC CONDITION WITH MINIMAL SIGNS OF USE. THE BACK BODY SHOWS 2 SMALL CRACKS - 1 BELOW THE SCREEN, AND ONE NEAR THE ZOOM BUTTON THAT DO NOT AFFECT THE CAMERA IN ANY WAY. BOTH FRONT AND REAR SCREENS ARE CLEAN WITH MINIMAL SCRATCHES.
Samsung's PL120 arrived in 2011 as an affordable DualView compact designed for self-portraits and family photography. Featuring a unique 1.5-inch front LCD alongside a 2.7-inch rear screen, it was built for social shooters who wanted to be part of every photo without guessing the frame.
THE PICS
THE LOOKS
In black, the PL120 has a compact, utilitarian design with rounded corners and a glossy finish. The standout feature is the 1.5-inch front-facing LCD screen next to the lens — a practical solution for framing self-portraits that was still relatively novel in 2011. The body is lightweight and pocketable, with a functional rather than flashy aesthetic that prioritizes ease of use over premium styling.
THE SPECS
Inside, the PL120 uses a 14.2-megapixel CCD sensor paired with Samsung's image processor. The 5× optical zoom lens covers a 26–130mm equivalent range, starting at a usefully wide 26mm for group shots and landscapes. The 2.7-inch rear LCD handles composition and playback, while Smart Auto 2.0 automatically selects from multiple scene modes. The camera also includes a Children Mode with animated graphics on the front screen to capture kids' attention, plus Jump Shot mode with a visual countdown.
DESIGN HIGHLIGHTS
- Dual LCD screens: 1.5-inch front display for self-portraits and a 2.7-inch rear screen — genuinely useful for social photography.
- Wide 26mm lens: Started wider than most budget compacts of its era, ideal for group shots and landscapes.
- Smart Auto 2.0: Automatic scene detection across stills and video for effortless point-and-shoot operation.
THE VERDICT
The PL120 is a practical, budget-friendly DualView compact from Samsung's early-2010s lineup. It's straightforward, functional, and cleverly designed for self-portraits and family photography. A solid everyday camera that made social shooting easier without overcomplicating things.
