Just what I was looking for
I was looking for a cost-effective higher end camera with all the mounts available to connect to our paddle boards when boarding on some of our beautiful lakes in Idaho as well as use when climbing/hiking. Found that this camera worked beautifully - came with a variety of mounts, including the waterproof case. I added some of the surfing mounts to have it at the front of the board and easy on and off. Picture quality is great for what I needed as well as great video. I love the on/off recording wrist band (just remember to turn off auto-off - so it's always ready). After a lot of searching and the help of AI - I'm very happy with this camera, it's function and the quality. Battery length was great - I was able to get 45 minutes recording and then speed up in iMovie and make a 2 minute highlight trip around the lake. Great functionality and has a myriad of mounts to choose from when you need various others.

Record the fun, save the memories!
I have only owned this for a few months using it a few times, so I cannot speak to its durability. This action camera comes with two rechargeable batteries and quite a few different mount setups to secure the camera on different things. There is a battery charger that allows you to charge both batteries at the same time and you will need a USB power source for the charger. The charger fully encloses the battery. The battery has a pull tab on it that allows you to remove it easier from either the camera or the charger. This camera even has a water-resistant case that might allow you to use it under water. Test it without the camera first though. I love the wrist strap that it comes with so you can remotely take photos or start and stop videos. You can leave the camera in its position and remotely activate it with this strap you wear on your wrist. You can program settings, see videos/photos on the camera using its buttons. Very intuitive and you will probably not need to read the instructions for most of the options. Of course reading the operator's manual that you need to download will make things easier to do. So many settings and abilities this camera has, I am very pleased with this relatively low priced camera. You can see the battery power level and other settings on the screen. I installed this on the handlebar of my ebike (mount included) and rode around a relatively smooth bike trail. I selected the mode so vibration gets stabilized. I left almost all of the rest of the settings at default. I installed my micro SD card and started the video when I got on the bike trail. I was pleasantly surprised at the clear video I got from this little inexpensive camera. You can either remove the storage card or hook your camera up to your computer for playback/download. I will say that the audio recorded during the ride was affected by the wind so that was not good. I will look for better options of recording audio during my rides. I will be using this camera more and tweaking it for better video outcomes. I will need to purchase some sort of body mount so I can wear this camera on my chest to take videos while in motion.

Great Budget Camera
We love this little camera. We chose it for the value of it being cheaper but still same qualities as other cameras. It seems to be doing well. It comes with 2 batteries and haven’t had any issue of it going dead while using. We have accessories and the waterproof case works great. My son used it in the ocean and the video and audio were pretty good. We are not looking for something that is the best of the best so for us we are very happy with the camera.

I set a low bar on my expectations and was surprised at how solid this product feels
I’m new to action cameras and am using this mainly for content creation. Out of the box, this is an impressive buy. High quality feel and all the accessories you need to get started including 2 battery packs are included. For the price of admission this is definitely a good value. I have yet to test the camera and its features but initial use proved to be very good. The wide angle option and image stability looks good at least the purpose of my content. All mounting accessories are included so I’m excited to get started.

Perfect for Underwater Fun!!!
I bought this camera for a pool party, and it was a huge hit! The underwater feature worked great, and the quality of both the photos and videos was amazing. I especially love that everything can be sent directly to your phone through the app, making it so easy to save and share your memories . It also comes with so many attachments, allowing you to use the camera in lots of different ways. I would highly recommend this camera, especially for pool parties, vacations, and underwater adventures!!!

Fantastic little camera
This camera is absolutely great for all sorts of things - it comes with accessories to clip onto handlebars, tripods, and other accessories. It comes with a waterproof case. It is incredibly small with an easy-to-use wristband to take pictures remotely. The app has simple features, but most-importantly the ability to watch what the camera sees when it's not with you - they have to be on the same Wifi network, however. For the price, this a fantastic little camera.

Knocked down a peg after use.
So, I am going to say right off the bat, I paid $83 for an action camera, I was expecting an $83 action camera. Short handed, that's not what I got. Shortly after getting this camera I immediately set to taking it through its paces. Between dash mounted footage, motorcycle helmet footage, and eventual PodCams (podcast video accompaniment), I needed to get a strong feel for how well this camera handled it. I took it around my yard on the two modes I will record video (1080p60 and 4K24). Then I strapped it to my motorcycle helmet and went for a ride. I picked up a decent amount of footage. Now, I am going to briefly cover the reason I took half a star from my actual rating. I used the iSmart DV app (as the product description says to use, since the original one has been depreciated) to activate the recording for the ride, because it's mounted to my helmet, that was being worn. I expected that it would record until I brought my phone back out and stopped it from the app as well. Turns out, after my half an hour ride, it only recorded about 3 minutes of it, because at some point it decided to stop recording. This was annoying, but I can live with that, I don't really have faith in App controls, so I will just use the included remote control to do it from now on. Moving on! Once I took the footage from the various modes off the camera and transferred them to my PC, I previewed it all. Mind you my expectations were pretty low, since it's an $83 action camera, but what I watched was astonishing. The 1080p60 was the best of the two modes I used, because the framerate made it seem much more lifelike than the 24fps 4K. Either way, I definitely did not expect such video quality with this. Now that we know I like the video quality, I am going to break down the keypoints I look for in cameras, and various devices as a whole. Build Quality: Now, it's not a solid block of metal that you are confident would sustain being pitched against a concrete wall, but it's not a flimsy piece of hollow plastic either. It's lightweight without feeling super cheap. I'd say the one thing that will most certainly become an issue later in it's life is the battery door. It's just difficult to get off that you lose finesse, and must utilize focused brute force. One day that motion will break the tabs. Hopefully Akaso has some sort of minor parts store one can purchase a new battery door from, for when that time does come. Quick note, the mounts, remote, and various accessories this comes with are all well built as well. Video Quality: Crisp, clean, and pleasurable, as long as you have sufficient light. There aren't many cameras like this that do all that well in super low light, but this wasn't awful. However, note that your frame rate will drop a bit if you are in a noticeably darker room. Audio Quality: Junk. As expected. They all are. Mind you, it is there, but like every action camera I've ever used, the audio is not clear and far reaching, but muffled, because I am fairly certain they all drop them under the solid plastic casing, not exposed to the air. So the sound is muffled. That's true of all action cameras of this size, if you are looking for audio quality over video, you want the Zoom Q8, it has nowhere near the video quality of this camera, but it records studio grade audio with many interchangeable mic modules you can buy. Battery Life: Lacking. You can get a little over an hour recording 1080p60 on one charge. There are two redeeming factors here that saved it from losing more of a star. 1) The camera comes with two batteries, doubling the life. 2) The camera still records when you have the camera plugged into a charger or external battery, so if long life matters, you have options. Plus getting more batteries isn't crazy expensive anyway. User Interface and Controls: Simple, easy to understand, and feature rich. The included remote is pretty killer too. It does have the "wifi" option, and for basic operation that is cool, but my experience with it, as stated above, was not great. 5 different video modes (720p120, 1080p30, 1080p60, 2.7k30, 4K24), and 2 still image modes (single and burst), as well as a time lapse option, it's hard to ask for more really. Additional features: MicroSD card slot, up to 64GB, use class 10 or higher. A 64gb calss 10 card gets you over 6 hours of 1080p60 footage without switching cards. Included accessories: Well, the fact that it comes with ANY gives it an edge, but it comes with a solid starting base of accessories for mounting, charging and controlling. Way more than the big brand GoPro. Now that I've said that magic word (GoPro) let me end on this: I've rented a GoPro Hero5 to use on a road trip. I pulled that footage up today and compared it to the footage taken with this Akaso, two clips nearly identical light, identical settings, and this Akaso kicks it's butt with video quality. Hands down. So, for less than a quarter of the price, you get this camera that out classes the Hero5 and comes with well, a lot, whereas that Hero5 $400 pricetag just gets you the camera. No deal GoPro, Akaso, you're winning. I look forward to getting the three more I need, and pumping out great video content, care of Akaso's great camera. EDIT: The biggest plan behind this camera was to get one per microphone for my podcasts. That's when I quickly learned something irreversibly bad about the cameras as a series. I'll start off with a note that everything else I said is true, of the first camera I received. However, upon receipt of two more to round off my mic came, I realized that one of the two I received was different. Sure, the model number was the same, but there's a laundry list of things different. The "features" remain the same, but one sensor needs to be back about 6" from the other to capture the same image. It's as if one is zoomed in a bit further than the other. The software itself reacts just slightly different as well. For example, when it's plugged into power the cameras all turn on automatically, however when you long press the power, the different one doesn't shut back off, but instead goes into something of a sleep mode. But in the end, I returned all of these cameras today because of the primary flaws: They record at a mere fraction of a fraction variance of speed, add in that occasionally when the file switches to a new, it loses a frame or more. This leads right up to the complete inability to sync recordings together into one cohesive project. I can't record the same event, in 3 different angles, and make a single video out of it without losing sync with all of them by the end. So, if you are planning to use more than one of these, prepare to run into a lot of issues. Consistency in equipment is a must for production equipment. Unfortunately these just don't have it. So, if app you need is one single high quality action camera, go ahead and grab this. Me? I'll be getting a round of Zoom Q2Ns, because they make consistent equipment for professionals.

Day 1 Reactions
1) Good heavens there are SO MANY ACCESSORIES! I love it but also.. how am I going to carry all this around?! I'm going to need to buy a case, because this doesn't come with one. 2) There are features in my menu that I don't see in the online manual or in YouTube videos from others. Well, just ONE specific feature that I've noticed so far: there isn't a single "timelapse" menu option which was apparently the camera taking a single photo ever x amount of seconds. The issue as a YouTuber mentioned, is that the camera doesn't stitch those photos together automatically like on a GoPro. You have to stitch the photos yourself on the computer. But I guess that's why AKASO added a NEW timelapse option... Video time lapse! This does in fact result in a video (mp4 file) that is a timelapse fast movie. Yay! On the screen, when in VIDEO timelapse, you'll first see 00:00 and it will update for every 1 second of video you'll have after it's all stitched together. 3) Picture quality: from the screen it looks like my car dashcam. Not great. Even though I'm on 4K it looks like a bad quality version of 4K. But that's the tiny screen. Maybe the tiny screen just doesn't have great resolution. When viewing the videos and pictures on the computer... eh, it's alright, but don't think you'll be recording a Hollywood level movie. In semi-good light it already started to struggle. This works best in bright light and then very quickly takes a dip in quality when it starts getting darker. But still useable! The video noise can be decreased with noise reduction software. 4) Micro SD card is very difficult to get in. It needs that last tiny little bit of a push that's super difficult. I need to press the edge of my nail against the thin edge of the Micro SD card and most times I'm slipping off it. I'm using a wooden toothpick that has been the most helpful. But it shouldn't be THAT hard to get the Micro SD card in. I use a Micro SD card in my drone and it's nowhere near as difficult to fully insert. 4.1) Speaking of Micro SD cards, I know people have mixed results using cards larger than the recommended 32GB. I'm using a "Gigastone 128GB V30 Micro SDXC U3 Class 10 I" and so far it's worked with everything I've tried. Maybe the mixed results are because some people are using older firmware on the camera or maybe certain brands of MicroSD cards above 32GB just don't work. 5) It was annoying at first having the power button also be the menu button, but you get used to it FAST and I like that they've kept it simple - less to break. It's a bit annoying that every time I want to get to settings I have to cycle through all the video/photo modes first, but again it's a small price to pay for the low cost of the device and the fact that there is less that can break down. Also, how often would I even be in the menu? I've set it to what I want to use for most all my videos, no need to keep changing it. (Unless the date/time resets when battery dies?! That I don't actually know yet!) It's not the best camera in the world compared to all other action cameras, but at it's price point it's fantastic. And really, in the action camera world, you're not looking to get Alexa/Red quality footage anyway. It's MUCH MUCH MUCH closer to the quality of a GoPro than a a GoPro is compared to a cinema camera. And with a little tweaking in your video editing software, it'll look even better. For a fraction of the cost of a GoPro. At this point I think you just pay for the GoPro name. This is a great camera if you do a little client work and need time lapse footage of something being built or torn down. Or if you like recording your sports adventures. Very happy with this after 1 day (Fingers crossed for the other days!)
