www.computeractive.co.uk‘s review Edit

The very unusual flip-and-twist design is exciting but picture quality and operational compromises let this camera down

www.whatdigitalcamera.com‘s review Edit

The Casio EXILIM TRYX EX-TR100 is certainly a one of a kind camera. As much as we give it kudos for its originality, brush away all that hype and the TRYX TR100 is full of design holes, lacks in features and isn't targeted at the more casual user.

PhotographyBLOG‘s review Edit

One can't help suspect that the Casio EX-TR100 or Tryx is a curio in search of an audience, and one that might not actually exist, at least in large numbers. It could herald a whole fleet of Tryx cameras but we doubt it; Casio hasn't exactly rushed to swell the range since this model was announced at the start of the year, and it will most likely remain a one-off attention grabber rather than a mass-market game changer. That said, Casio deserves praise for daring to be different and breaking from the herd; this 'thinking outside the box' something its background in electronics rather than photography per se has doubtless enabled.

Macworld‘s review Edit

The Tryx is a category-busting device—equal parts camera, pocket camcorder, and Voltron Starshooter—and it performs most of its tasks surprisingly well. However, it does have its fair share of drawbacks: It has no optical zoom at all, most camera controls are delegated to the Tryx's problematic touchscreen, and unless you hold it camcorder-style, it makes you feel more like you're shooting with a cellphone than with a dedicated camera. It's certainly the most versatile imaging device we've ever reviewed in terms of physical adjustments, but its transformative ways are somewhat mission-critical: The Tryx works best when you take advantage of its twisting and turning frame.

PC Advisor‘s review Edit

The shape-shifting Tryx offers good performance. It's a hard gadget to classify, but it works best when you make use of its twistable frame to overcome awkward lens placement and controls when employing it as a normal camera.

Pocket-lint‘s review Edit

The Tryx is for cameras what a flick-knife is for knives: it tries to look all big and clever, but is ultimately pointless if you could buy a better, sharper one somewhere else for even less money. Swanky though it may appear, this is a one Tryx pony with little appeal bar its conceptual prowess. Of course there will be a market for the Tryx EX-TR100: if you’re after a 21mm wide-angle lens in a self-supporting compact body that can capture HD movies then this is the only camera for you. But for the rest of us folk the Tryx’s flaws are all too many, the appeal all too little and the £250 RRP just too much.

www.trustedreviews.com‘s review Edit

Overall, the Casio TRYX is a bold attempt to provide something a bit different. While we applaud this, we do have concerns with the price and the digital zoom. At £250 the TRYX has to compete against some fairly high-spec compacts with superior zoom lenses and better overall image quality. Perhaps if the TRYX was closer to £150 than £250 Casio might have a winner on its hands. As it stands we’re not so sure.

CNET Reviews‘s review Edit

An interesting little snapshooter in both design and features, the Casio Tryx pops out satisfying photos and movies for straight-to-Web sharing.

ephotozine‘s review Edit

The Casio TR100, or Tryx as Casio likes to call it, is a bagful alright. It features good build quality, a super-flexible frame, pick-up-and-go simplicity and touchscreen menus. The slender, iPhone style format means it can go anywhere and the super-wide angle lens means it’ll get everything into view. The lack of a proper flash is a shortcoming, possibly more so than an optical zoom given the target area for the camera. Thankfully the ISO noise suppression is really very good, though the overall image quality is only average.
