Two tone

The NX3000 looks a lot more like the NX300, with three two-tone color choices: black, white, or brown

Selfie friendly

As is the trend, the LCD flips up completely for easier selfies.

New kit lens

The NX3000 kit comes with the 16-50mm power-zoom lens; the NX2000 included the old, manual-zoom 20-50mm lens.

Controls

While the NX2000's operation was more screen-driven, the NX3000 has more a more traditional control layout.

Slimmer profile

Although the body is actually a hair deeper than the NX2000, the NX3000's more compact lens makes the overall package slimmer.

Tilting LCD

The NX2000 has a huge, high-resolution display. While the NX3000's tilts -- a useful feature -- it's smaller and rather low resolution.

I Got an Early Look at Intel's Glass Packaging Tech for Faster Chips
Rahul Manepalli, right, Intel's module engineering leader, shows a glass substrate panel before it's sliced into the small rectangles that will be bonded to the undersides of hundreds of test processors. The technology, shown here at Intel's CH8 facility in Chandler, Arizona, stands to improve performance and power consumption of advanced processors arriving later this decade. Glass substrates should permit physically larger processors comprised of several small "chiplets" for AI and data center work, but Intel expects they'll trickle down to PCs, too.
