Perfect video perfect speaking speed and the time of video is perfect too. It is called balanced review video which cover 5 cameras quite nicely. Bravo.
Great Stuff man! I was eyeing the Akaso V50/pro and some other action cam on Amazon. Honestly, all of reviews I've seen none of the cameras were there so I feel a lot better now to find something else.
Wow thank you for this video. I've been watching so many frustrating youtube videos lately where there's so much fluff and they person goes on and on, but yours was straight to the point and extremely informative. One question, what is your opinion on GoPro's? I always hear about them.
Thanks for watching. GoPros are great and if you can afford to spend $400 for the latest one it will be a really good choice, however if you get the $200 Yi 4k+ you will get the same video quality
I need an action camera, help me choose one. 1) Anything but a GoPro, I want to stay away from GoPro 2) Most important: Must have a wide variety of accessories & mounts that matches the accessories available to GoPro Which one?
in my opinion T5e is little overhype. Yea, it have really good quality of videos and photos, but external microphone port doesn't work (which is quite common problem in this camera) and there is no option of screen reversal. The more it hurts, because I wanted to use T5e for vlogging and as a Dashcam :(
Please recommend akaso brave or yi 4k which one to go for..... I will be recording mostly on 1080p which has better stabilization.... And better audio recording.... Kindly reply
cool and informative video thank you for that infoirmation.... wich budget 4k action cam with external audio will you suggest? are there other action cams (never ones)?
Great reviews! In the market for a cheap action cam. Just spent the last few hours watching your vids because they're the most in depth and useful so went ahead and subscribed. The Apeman A80 seems best bang for the buck in my price range. Just noticed there's a new 2018 version. Any idea what's new? Hard to find any info online. Thanks!
I agree. I want someone to succinctly summarize the features, benefits, deficits, and price-points of the cameras within this product category. And this man delivers.
Hi admin, is it really worth to buy FITSPARK EAGLE IMAX ACTION CAMERA UNDER 10,000? WHICH IS REALLY BEST SJCAM S6 LEGEND OR FITSPARK EAGLE IMAX? SUGGEST ME BHAIYA! TYPE C CONNECTIVITY?
Nice review. Which camera offers good live view feed on the phone while recording. Want something I can use underwater while someone sits on the boat and views the feed. thanks
Hey RedSkull, i’m looking forward to get a budget action camera with a decent image stabilization, which one do you recommend? 4K isn’t important for me. Thanks and keep up the good work!
Great video and very insightful. I would like to ask though now that Yi Discovery and Yi Lite were also reviewed if these would make it to an “updated” list? Thanks!
i hope they all turned out as they should have! Everytime you try something leave a comment with your experience if you have the time...some other viewers may find it useful
To all the way!! It’s worth the few extra bucks to get a great camera. I live my Yi4k+. Especially, the slow motion without using a computer to edit it.
Super helpful analysis and comparison between the different action cameras! I am looking for a good camera to take scuba diving. Unfortunately, the Apeman A80 seems to be getting phased out by the new version called Apeman Trawwo. Do you know the quality of this camera? Also looking in to the Campark. Both cameras seem to get good reviews on Amazon, but not sure how much I trust their reviews. Any input and opinions would be appreciated:)
I got the Apeman Trawo 2 weeks ago...just haven't had a chance to check it out yet. Personally I take my YI 4K+ with me everywhere... check my Twitter account, I posted a underwater clip from it the other day
Hi Based on your video recommendations I bought an sj7 star a few months ago. But after this I was wondering what's your opinion, Which ones better sj7 star or Xiaumi miji 4k?? Thanks!
Great video review!! Though I like the quality of SJ7 Star but I'm looking for an action camera with good stabilization (similar to SJ6 legend) and good quality too (at 4k about 30fps). I'm considering SJ8 Plus as for now. Any suggestions, please..?
Hi I'm thinking of using an action cam as a webcam (in 1080p 60fps). Do all of AC support this feature? Which BUDGET action camera would you recommend for this? Low light performance is essential. Thx
@@RedskullPro Ohhh....I mean, regular webcams don't offer 1080p 60fps and those that do cost an arm and a leg. Action Camera bridge that gap i believe. Just need one that has a good sensor for low light recordings.
I've used the Apeman A80, and A66 with good results. I have been hunting for a camera that can do an external microphone and stumbled onto the SJCam S7 recently. That is probably the camera I will take to the Laconia motorcycle rally with me in June. It loos pretty exciting.
I was looking at the batteries closely for that one. They look very similar to what I use for my Apeman camera. I have a dozen of those. Do you still have the Apeman, and can you tell me if they are compatible if you do? For me that would be a big selling point as I already have a ton of them on hand.
Great review! Why do gimbal motors always block the view of the cameras screen? Why doesn't the #1 camera have extra batteries? 50 minutes recording time is too short!
So my budget is around $150, i am going on a vacation soon and I'll be going to the water park and stuff and going diving, so which one do you recommend?
Thanks for the awesome videos! What would you recommend to someone who is looking for a helmet cam for motorcycle riding. I currently have the akaso 4k camera and shoot at either 1080P or 720p to save card space. I figured that I don't need any footage that's fantastic, only sharp enough to capture what may happen out on the road for insurance purposes such as license plates. My only problem with the camera because I got otherwise love it is that the battery doesn't last long at all. Do you have any recommendation of a camera that doesn't necessarily need to have fantastic video quality as long as it's sufficient but does have good battery life
Hi What do you think about the normal Yi 4K action camera? Is the only difference to the + version, that this one can record 4K with 60 FPS, or are there any other differences? Would you suggest this one as well? Thanks a lot
if i dont care so much for 4k and primarily want a good underwater camera, so with a waterproof case and good low light performance, what would you recommend? say in the ~100$ range. thanks!
you aren't gonna get that great low light performance around $100. I would probably still get the Mijia 4k but you will need to buy a waterproof case for it...it doesn't come with one. The Apeman A80 isn't bad for what it offers at around $70
HI Alex.. just went through alot of your single camera reviews.. Great information! One question is why didnt the Resxo Explorer K make this list.. In your single review it seems to match if not exceed a few of these cameras recorded quality but also with included accessories.
Hi, The Explorer K would have been in the same spot with the MGCOOL Explorer 3. The video quality is very similar but i liked the sound quality from the MGCOOL Explorer 3 a bit more.
Hey Alex, which one has the best sound quality? I'm a drummer and would like to record my concerts from the drummer's view. Which cam do you think would work best? Thanks!
i recommend getting one that can take an external microphone. The internal microphone will not do great with loud music. Yi 4k+, Thieye t5e and sjcam sj7 star can take external microphones
Thanks for watching...i honestly didn't see any spare batteries for it either... i don't know if this would help...but if you want send me an email and i'll send you a coupe of pictures of the battery. alex@redskullproductions.com
What about the Campark X20, isn't this better than the Apeman A80 since video quality is the same and X20 has a touchscreen? I'm looking for the best budget camera for a drone.
Damn bro you are the action camera MASTER!! There's got to be a cool way to utilize those cameras, like making a rig to hold multiple and do real time comparing.. Or who knows, the sky's the limit really when you have that many action cameras..
and i think i have a few more, but they were in boxes and i didn't want to take them out :) Maybe when the weather gets better i'll do like a massive action camera comparison or something. Defiantly need a couple of people to help with something like that
Gopros are pretty iffy right now, so this helps. Going to get the efficient 1#, the Xiaomi Mijia Mini 4K, on amazon, because reviews sound legit and there are only two, meaning less people know about this, meaning this camera is less popular and is more likely to have a goal to get good cameras out to all instead of as many edgy, maybe dysfunctional cameras as they can (Gopro's current budget camera state). The specific YI in this video is more non budget best professional action cam.
i notice that all the footage does not have a fisheye lens applied. have you taken it away during processing? or do all these cameras not have this type of lens?
so you would want image stabilization for 4K.... the MGcool Explorer 3 has that...but if you are ready to spend $200...i recommend spending a bit more and getting the Yi 4K+. It is an amazing camera
Can you please review SJCAM SJ8 Pro (4K 60fps) action camera? I'd like to see how much better compared to SJ7 and could it compete with YI 4K+ and GO Pro5.
I’m looking for an action camera that is under 200 has native 4K (at least 30 FPS), image stabilization and a water proof case. I would love it if it came with an extra battery and if it could use an external mic, but these aren’t deal breakers. What action can would you recommend for me?
well, the ones that have image stabilization for 4K recordings and are under $200 don't do good in low light. If you don't care about that check out my reviews of the Elecam Rexso Explorer K, MGCOOL Explorer 3 and Akaso V50
Im leaning towards the Xiaomi Mijia Camera Mini 4K 30fps...Can I get a clip on accessory for my shirt with this camera? I really dont need all the other attachments. We bought the extreme pro HD 1080p and that has a clip on attachment. Not sure if it will fit the Mijia 4k though. I dont recommend the extreme pro HD 1080p .
I really wanted the M3Cool Explorer 3 after this video, but can't find it anywhere. Some sites say it's actually discontinued. What's my next best option? What about the Akaso V50 stuff or even Bravo 4? I want, mostly, image stabilization, 1080p at least fast enough for slow mo, and $100 or less. Looking to replace my aging ContourHD for dirt biking and other sports as well as mount on my freestyle drones. I do like the wristband remote Akaso has for dirt biking. Whats my next best option? The video from the M3Cool looked great!
Thanks Alex for this Comparison Video 👍 And I Confirm MIJIA 4K action cam is my favorite, i did a couple shots with it and i really like it. But you forgot to say it has no HDMI out and no possibility to ad an external mic.
In my opinion, you forgot the yi 4k (i mean the normal, not plus), which has better quality video than mijia. For me it would be the number 1 instead of it
Hey alex i really like your reviews very informative however there is something i couldnt figure out Im planning to buy an action camera which im going to use mostly underwater and what i need is to be able to operate with the camera while in the water (changing settings,switching between video and cameras..) does this mean i have to stick with action camera that doesnt have touchscreen and only physical button? Or are there any camera that have touchscreen and they have buttons that let me operate with it under water?
hi, most cameras weren't exactly designed to be used under water, However, the Yi 4K+ has a water mode that disables the touch screen so you can use it easier under water
If you need a budget camera that you want to change settings underwater, maybe better to get a non touchscreen model. On the other hand if you are recording in 4K, you can probably extract a high quality still anyway, so no need to switch modes.
A new updated TOP 5 Action Cameras video is now available: ruclips.net/video/IRPJzd7LZAg/видео.html
Does the mijia support a external microphone? Please do reply...thanks. ✌✌✌
pls notice me
Can you tell me which one is best for photos?
Excellent review Redskull. Would you recommend the Xiaomi Mijia Mini 4K over the OnReal 4K camera?
hey, thanks for watching. The Mijia 4K is way better than the Onreal 4K
Perfect video perfect speaking speed and the time of video is perfect too. It is called balanced review video which cover 5 cameras quite nicely. Bravo.
Thanks for checking it out!
Hi. What is the cheapest with touch screen please?
Great Stuff man! I was eyeing the Akaso V50/pro and some other action cam on Amazon. Honestly, all of reviews I've seen none of the cameras were there so I feel a lot better now to find something else.
Good points and good list man, nice comparison also, I didn't know the Xiaomi didn't have the waterproof case!
Video liked as always my friend.
yeah, it has to be bought separately
Wow thank you for this video. I've been watching so many frustrating youtube videos lately where there's so much fluff and they person goes on and on, but yours was straight to the point and extremely informative.
One question, what is your opinion on GoPro's? I always hear about them.
Thanks for watching. GoPros are great and if you can afford to spend $400 for the latest one it will be a really good choice, however if you get the $200 Yi 4k+ you will get the same video quality
Hey, congratulations for the amazing work you do. Which do you think is the best action camera at around 100€ or a bit more?
Mijia 4K
Redskull anything cheaper?
There are others listed in the video
Love the review. Are you from cambridge or just visiting? Again thanks for the info
Thanks for checking it out! Yes, I am from Cambridge

The more it hurts, because I wanted to use T5e for vlogging and as a Dashcam :(

Which Camera You Use While Making RUclips Videos... I Like Your Camera Quality, Please Let Me Know
Hey, I think I was using a sony A6500 when I was filming that video
Please recommend akaso brave or yi 4k which one to go for..... I will be recording mostly on 1080p which has better stabilization.... And better audio recording.... Kindly reply
cool and informative video thank you for that infoirmation.... wich budget 4k action cam with external audio will you suggest? are there other action cams (never ones)?
i think the SJCAM SJ7 star is the best and cheapest you can get that supports an external microphone.

There are some links in the video's description

The Apeman A80 seems best bang for the buck in my price range. Just noticed there's a new 2018 version. Any idea what's new? Hard to find any info online. Thanks!
Hey, I didn't get to try it out the refreshed version but from the looks of it the changes are just cosmetic. For $70 can't go wrong with that one!
Which is better
Good summary & very helpful. Thumbs up =)

Very happy to hear! Thanks for watching and welcome to the channel
Nice review. Which camera offers good live view feed on the phone while recording. Want something I can use underwater while someone sits on the boat and views the feed. thanks
they all have live view, but depending how far from the camera you are the footage may look laggy
Hey RedSkull, i’m looking forward to get a budget action camera with a decent image stabilization, which one do you recommend? 4K isn’t important for me. Thanks and keep up the good work!
mijia 4K :)
Redskull , does it have a better stabilization than Thieye or SJCAM cameras?
I learned that Miija 4K has image stabilization only for 30fps recording so i have to pick a different action camera.
Great video and very insightful. I would like to ask though now that Yi Discovery and Yi Lite were also reviewed if these would make it to an “updated” list? Thanks!
Hi, no I won't include them in the upcoming Top 5 Action Camera video :) I don't find them good enough
Thank you for the quick reply! Will eliminate them from my choices then.:) Looking forward to the next Top 5 list soon. Regards
Which is the best actioncam to use if you want GPS-data (speed) included in the video?
Mate, your videos are great. I've bought so much based on your recommendations!
i hope they all turned out as they should have! Everytime you try something leave a comment with your experience if you have the time...some other viewers may find it useful
Hey, great video. Just wondering can you recommend an action camera that shoot true 4K at 25fps? Cheers, Colm
I use the Yi 4K+ as my personal camera, I don't have any complains about it
To all the way!! It’s worth the few extra bucks to get a great camera. I live my Yi4k+. Especially, the slow motion without using a computer to edit it.
The Yi 4k+ is just amazing!
Great thanks. What if I stick to 1080p? Did any budget camera's stabilization stand out for you?
they are all very similar. I think the Mijia 4k did very well for 1080p & EIS
Super helpful analysis and comparison between the different action cameras! I am looking for a good camera to take scuba diving. Unfortunately, the Apeman A80 seems to be getting phased out by the new version called Apeman Trawwo. Do you know the quality of this camera? Also looking in to the Campark.

The SJCAM SJ7 Star is a great cam. However it doesn't come with a zero distortion 90 degree FOV option. I'd recommend the Hawkeye Firefly 8S
Thanks for sharing!
Great clear concise review, and wonderful accent!
Thanks for checking out the video! I did make a new top 5 video last week...
Xiaomi mijia 4k vs YI 4k. Which one better? Any suggestion's? Thanks
By the way, I like the way u xplain in detail, very professional !
happy to hear!
ThiEYE T5E vs SJCAM SJ7 Star , what to choose?
sj7
So what camera is best to buy?
Yi 4k+
Nice stuff! Thanks.
What are your thoughts on the Eken H9?
should i buy a phone with a good camera or a action cam?
if you don't do anything crazy to endanger your phone, than a phone for sure, but if you are into some crazy sports, an action camera would be better
Hi
Based on your video recommendations I bought an sj7 star a few months ago.
But after this I was wondering what's your opinion,
Which ones better sj7 star or Xiaumi miji 4k??
Thanks!
I think SJ7 Star is a very good action camera. I doubt Mijia mini is better.
wich one would you think is better Akaso Brave 4 or the Apeman a80?? thanks alot again :)
I didn't try that second one... I have another new 📷 from Akaso coming soon
Hey, thanks for the video, very helpful. I just wondered where would you rank the Akaso v50 Pro?
Best video I’ve seen in a while
Thanks for checking it out! There is an updated version on my channel
What is the number 1?
check the video's description
Great video review!! Though I like the quality of SJ7 Star but I'm looking for an action camera with good stabilization (similar to SJ6 legend) and good quality too (at 4k about 30fps). I'm considering SJ8 Plus as for now. Any suggestions, please..?
Thank you, very useful information nowadays! All the best and good luck with future endeavors!

I'm thinking of using an action cam as a webcam (in 1080p 60fps). Do all of AC support this feature?

@@RedskullPro
Ohhh....I mean, regular webcams don't offer 1080p 60fps and those that do cost an arm and a leg. Action Camera bridge that gap i believe. Just need one that has a good sensor for low light recordings.

I like the SJ7. Even thou i've reviewed it almost a year ago, i still have it :) Most cameras i end up selling
I was looking at the batteries closely for that one. They look very similar to what I use for my Apeman camera. I have a dozen of those.

You can find a bunch on Amazon or Aliexpress

Thanks a lot
Hi, the Yi 4K+ has image stabilization for 4k30fps where the YI 4K doesn't. You also get a different processor and better low light

Hey Alex, which one has the best sound quality? I'm a drummer and would like to record my concerts from the drummer's view. Which cam do you think would work best? Thanks!
i recommend getting one that can take an external microphone. The internal microphone will not do great with loud music. Yi 4k+, Thieye t5e and sjcam sj7 star can take external microphones
Do you think mijia internal microphone will do a good job for outdoor video recording in a day time?
if there isn't too much wind will do pretty good

Hey, red skull I have a question I accidentally bought the a77 instead of the a80 is the a77 still good??? pls help

Which one is better sj7 or sj8 plus
Hi, I didn't get to try the sj8 plus yet
ok, its a big detriment becouse sj7 and sj8 plus it"s the same money. THX
4:52 that defense stance, you aint gonna get him anymore

Which action camera under 100 pounds better audio? Thanks.
Mijia 4K
What about the Campark X20, isn't this better than the Apeman A80 since video quality is the same and X20 has a touchscreen? I'm looking for the best budget camera for a drone.
the video quality is roughly the same but the campark is $20 more expensive and that's why I didn't include it in this video.
This is the kind of contect that I like. Keep it up!🙋🏿
Thanks for checking out the video!
Damn bro you are the action camera MASTER!! There's got to be a cool way to utilize those cameras, like making a rig to hold multiple and do real time comparing.. Or who knows, the sky's the limit really when you have that many action cameras..

Can you tell me your reasons why the Campark X20 falls below these ones?
no real 4k recording, high price, average video quality
Gopros are pretty iffy right now, so this helps. Going to get the efficient 1#, the Xiaomi Mijia Mini 4K, on amazon, because reviews sound legit and there are only two, meaning less people know about this, meaning this camera is less popular and is more likely to have a goal to get good cameras out to all instead of as many edgy, maybe dysfunctional cameras as they can (Gopro's current budget camera state). The specific YI in this video is more non budget best professional action cam.
I love the Yi 4K+! It comes with me everywhere I go :)
Yeah! I have looked at it for the future when i need an upgrade; a transition to a professional level.
Hi. Is SJCAM SJ8 Plus also a good choice?
I only tried the SJCAM SJ8 Pro...can't say about the Plus
i notice that all the footage does not have a fisheye lens applied. have you taken it away during processing? or do all these cameras not have this type of lens?
Redskull, which sub-$200 would you recommend for skiing with chest mount in 4K?
so you would want image stabilization for 4K.... the MGcool Explorer 3 has that...but if you are ready to spend $200...i recommend spending a bit more and getting the Yi 4K+. It is an amazing camera
Like the video!! Do you have any info on the optex safari 4 hd wifi? Looking to get a camera but don't want to break the bank
never got to try that one...can't comment
Ok thanks
Would you be adding the Firefly 8SE if you made your top 5 now? If so, where would you rank it? :)
I will in an upcoming top 5 video. I will be placed at Number 2. I think the Mijia will still take Number one but only because it's cheaper.
Redskull Thanks for your answer. Great work. Have a great day from Montreal ;)

Thanks Alex what's the best action camera in low light?
Hi, Yi 4K+ followed by the SJCAM SJ7, Mijia 4K

well, the ones that have image stabilization for 4K recordings and are under $200 don't do good in low light. If you don't care about that check out my reviews of the Elecam Rexso Explorer K, MGCOOL Explorer 3 and Akaso V50

What about the Akaso V50 stuff or even Bravo 4? I want, mostly, image stabilization, 1080p at least fast enough for slow mo, and $100 or less. Looking to replace my aging ContourHD for dirt biking and other sports as well as mount on my freestyle drones. I do like the wristband remote Akaso has for dirt biking. Whats my next best option? The video from the M3Cool looked great!
Hye, the Akaso V50 Pro is very similar and possibly a bit better: ruclips.net/video/38bCzEWOHto/видео.html
Hi Alex, Which Do You Prefer Thieye T5e or i60+
t5e
I was getting really close to buying the Xiaomi Mijia 3, but just heard there is no external microphone support, is that true?
it is correct...no external mictophone support
Excellent video! Cheers!
Thanks for watching!
Thank you for this very informative video! Cheers mate from Spike (Western Australia)
I want to visit Australia badly...but it's so far... those flights are so long
Looking for something more in the $50 range (or lower?) How is the ACT74?
didn't try that one...can't say
In my own words all of these cameras has videoing quality
But I like the 4Kt
Thanks Alex for this Comparison Video 👍 And I Confirm MIJIA 4K action cam is my favorite, i did a couple shots with it and i really like it. But you forgot to say it has no HDMI out and no possibility to ad an external mic.
Thanks for watching! Yes it has some compromises, but i am fairly sure i covered those in the full review
Probably, you are an expert 👏 I like your work 😄
Good as always 👍🏻
Thanks for stopping by!
Good review. I got mijia 4k. Its awesome.
nice! Great camera!
This is helping me buckets 👍🏻💙
Thank you very much for watching!
In my opinion, you forgot the yi 4k (i mean the normal, not plus), which has better quality video than mijia. For me it would be the number 1 instead of it
Is the kaiser baas x300 a good camera
I just purchased this one
i never tried it...can't say
Hey Alex I just bought the Mijia 4K based on yours and @Zi Reviews. I hope it works out.
it's a great camera! I'm sure you will love it, i still have mine
Hey, very clear you live in Cambridge Ontario. I too reside here way to go!!
yes :)
Hey alex i really like your reviews very informative however there is something i couldnt figure out
Im planning to buy an action camera which im going to use mostly underwater and what i need is to be able to operate with the camera while in the water (changing settings,switching between video and cameras..) does this mean i have to stick with action camera that doesnt have touchscreen and only physical button? Or are there any camera that have touchscreen and they have buttons that let me operate with it under water?
hi, most cameras weren't exactly designed to be used under water, However, the Yi 4K+ has a water mode that disables the touch screen so you can use it easier under water
Redskull thank you for now the yi 4k+ is kind of out of budget right now so what cam would you recommend me for that use?
If you need a budget camera that you want to change settings underwater, maybe better to get a non touchscreen model. On the other hand if you are recording in 4K, you can probably extract a high quality still anyway, so no need to switch modes.
