The size, fits into most pockets, and stylishness of the product its not going to look to outdated. The quality of the Nikon brand, and the fact that they still use the same memory card as my original 5 year old Nikon coolpix uses. Its quick to start up and once one photo is taken the time to recover is quite good for the purpose its intended for.

Battery life could be better. The screen gets messed up with finger prints too easily, maybe a protective screen cover could be provided like the mobiles have when you get them!

After using an Ixus the Coolpix felt really tinny and of not the same build quality. The UI is also lacking and in bright light it could do with a viewfinder.

Very easy to use with most used features readily available. Very slim which makes it really pocket sized. Image quality in good light is excellent, and flash works well over a considerably larger range than expected for this type of camera. Used by whole family with generally good results from the start. LCD screen is bright enough to use in sunlight as long as you are not wanting to see too much detail.
-
The exposure button is rather small and needs considerable pressure to operate. This takes some time to get used to, well for me anyway with my man's hands. Teenage daughter has used it without problems.

Charging is the only negative point - the battery comes out and is placed in a seperate charger - it would have been better if the charger could have connected direct to the camera (like a mobile phone)

Delay in taking pictures when in flash mode means that if the subject has moved the image is not the one intended.
Shutter size is relatively small, which may be inconvenient for some.
