Gotta appreciate how DJI responds to feedback from users and continues to improve the product whether through hardware or software update. Gotta give it o DJI for adding the protective case.
Except for their in warranty repairs.
I like how he talks like he's rapping all the time.
Ok bie🤣💀
I can’t unhear it now
😭
I read this comment before watching the movie and .... dammit
The review comparison we’ve all been waiting for. Thanks for taking the time to do a thorough comparison and not rushing it.
Love the Action 2’s look and modular design!
😶
I’ll keep my Action 1 over the Action 2 but I will say the definitive Pro versus the GoPro is that it works every single time I turn it on and never glitches out or loses footage
Action 2 lost my footage because it formatted the microSD card incorrectly (inside the camera) and windows had no chance to read the footage/card anymore. Plus the overheating ist worse than Hero10 (16min with DualCombo), so loosing footage again with Action2
@@Bopplise DJI upgrades its firmware much more frequently than Gopro Hero. I had Gopro Hero last time and the customer service 'su' and they never seem to upgrade the firmware when there's hanging problems.
Updates are no excuse for basic software mistakes
I don‘t like to be a tester instead of a customer for market products.
@@Bopplise I get what u saying but I've been with all sort of problems with gopro since the first gens. And now my 8 black just stop working cause the oring didn't prevent water from coming in and end up damaging the camera. Just normal use on the beach. So I think I'm way more frustrated by not having a camera anymore. Not to mention bugs and the list goes on...
Been wanting a compact but high performance action camera. I’m really digging the size and the modular design of the Action 2.
I was surprised this review for Osmo 2 delayed so much but I am happy you finally did it. Comparison with Insta Go 2 is what interests me more, and I look forward to this video.
Nah! I'm sticking with my Osmo action 1. Action 2 couldn't convince me.
Despite its superiority in most aspects, two words disqualify OA1 as an action cam: NARROW FOV
@@impact0r not as better as you think. Dji action (1st) was better than all gopros until the 10 came out. So there's not much reason to upgrade, unless really want the latest, but you can skip until action 3.
@@shinkimo Action 1 has one fatal flaw which disqualifies it for my purposes: narrow field of view.
How narrow is it? It was still the same as the gopros or even wider lol. 145 degrees. Not until gopro 9 did it get to 155 degrees. If you need wider, then you go with action 2 or gopro 9 up. There are flaws in every camera. Go for the one that has what you need, but there will always be something lacking for everyone.
@@impact0r I like narrow field of view.
Months later and I’m having a blast with the Action 2. I'm getting some accessories to make it even more fun to use. Heard we will get a magnetic protective case soon.
How is it
Thank you for the detailed comparison. I really like the DJI however the built in, non-removable battery in the camera portion is a deal breaker for me. That battery life is going to diminish and you will always need to add on the clip on battery. Most people using the GoPro goes out with a few batteries that you can throw into your pocket.
I agree Kevin. I am always bringing extra batteries in my pocket, and I almost always need them. And as you said, the onboard battery WILL diminish for sure.
small rig brought out a mod for the DJI so you can charge it via powerbank with only the Camera!
Yeah, that was the very deal breaker for me. I travel long distances, so that's not something I can compromise. What a shame :(
DJI killed it with the horizon levelling. However 22GB internal storage and NO SD CARD without mod extention is a huge no go for me.(Wanted to use on my motorcycle helmet - chin mount) l was expecting Action 2 to be an updated version of Session 4. What a shame.
yes that's right... no space for external mods.. i'm confused when i have to use it for motovlog hopefully dji can fix it in the future
Ben, Jake Sloan's video comparison actually showed that in low light situation, Action 2 performs much better than Gopro Hero 10. I think it's your settings.
Low light is a very important consideration.
Thanks Ben! Love the comparisons! It puts everything on the table for us to see. Love the side by sides. ❤️
Very impressed with the Action 2, but the colors are much more natural on the GoPro. Great review!
action 2 has more natural colors. gopro is famous for oversaturated colors, and the gopro 10 oddly have fainted washed out colors.
Gopro color is way better straight out. It has a cinematic look to it. DJI color is just like cellphone video. I know you can adjust in post, but that’s extra work. Dynamic range is about the same, and I notice DJI likes to over exposed maybe one stop over Gopro. It can be good or bad depending on situation. Overall, I think form factor is the only determining factor in choosing. I would get Gopro for the color.
It’s a smart move they made Action 2 a modular action camera. All the accessories you can add to it makes it more exciting and unique.
Good review but I'm wondering if the battery life comparison was a bit skewed? It looks like you had the GoPro in 5.3k and the DJI at 2.7k resolution? I've heard the GoPro consumes more battery when at 5k compared to a lower resolution therefore that part may not have been a true apples-to-apples comparison
He always cheats when it comes to the GO PRO, because he knows that they are the best action Cameras and he can't stand it. Just look at his reviews on the ALL the Go Pros, he hates on All of them!!
@@thewalkingvloggingman7152 Yeah, he is usually pretty fair, but is hardcore biased versus GoPro.
DJI power module has certainly more juice than Gopro. Usually people use the power module for longer shots. Remember Gopro is twice the size of DJI action 2 without the power module.
@@cyber1991 I mean $75 for a module and it better last it a little longer. But I would rather pay $75 for 5 batteries that will last me hours each and just swap them out. So for the same $75 Go Pro lasts much longer
A heat-controlling protective case! Nice! There goes the advantage of the mini Action 2! The design lets you so easily accessorize it and with those accessories come various functions an features you can add on the main camera module to make it more versatile than a GoPro
The DJ2 doesn’t connect to cloud when connected to WiFi? I am going GoPro as I prefer the “grab and go” build. Waterproof with 128 SD card and then cloud upload when Connected to WiFi. Simple, seamless. I use at the beach snorkeling/diving. Snapping cubes together looks like a hassle. Worrying about waterproof configuration? No. I currently use The HERO 8 but will upgrade to HERO 10 as soon as I finish this comment. New Enduro battery will make for much longer run time.
Both have overheating problems but the difference is DJI now introduced a solution through the protective case. GoPro when?
**GoPro Hero10 isn’t compatible yet with Windows 11 if you ever want to use it as a webcam. Customer Support said they have no timeline as to when it will be available …
Kinda glossed over the Action 2 overheating even faster than the GP didn't we?
A bit unfair to critique the GP for battery life and then claim the Action 2 is sufficient for your needs...
i was very dissappointed to learn dji2 overheats very fast,the climate i live is very hot expecially in summer.gop10 just made me go nuts with so many consecutive heating errors 1 month ago now it is a bit colder .nonetheless if dji2 overheats much worse then ill stick with gopro10
thats not an issue if you use it like an action cam, like gopro 10 , if you let them sit down inside house , of course it will overheat, powerfull tiny cameras , and he dont critique gopro , if he would do that he have to start about the freezes screen, take out the battery, loose footage and others things, that they dont resolve
@@rjsvids For $500 it shouldn’t overheat… Gopro shouldn’t overheat either. It’s 2021 and men walked on the moon 50 years ago but we can’t have an action camera for $500 that is temperature stable in multiple environments?
@@MrFredsDIYAre you sure they did?
I have brought DJI action 2 and unfortunately, it has disappointed me a lot. Firstly because of not making the battery or screen module waterproof and secondly its low light stabilization on bikes. Boy oh boy! its way worse than anyone could imagine.
Rain and low light motor vlog went extremely wrong!
Plus, it drains power module charge if left attached overnight even after full charge.
You tried to record at 4k@60 yet? How many seconds before it overheats?
Good review, the biggest question I had which is unfortunately still unanswered: Is the magnet safe enough to keep it mounted and not lose it? Eg., riding on dirt bikes will a random branch rip it off without you noticing?
While hardly the biggest question or concern, the magnetic mount is strong enough for me to mount the camera on the chin of a motorcycle helmet. Also, the action 2 has an attachment point for a leash/tether. When riding a dirt bike a branch can rip off a camera by breaking a plastic mount depending on how hard you hit it.
There are clips both sides! It would never lose unless you release it manually.
How about sky diving
@@christyanbudisusilo5812 Not an issue as well
@@brianl9084 Is this legit? They are that strong!?
Good, thumb up: No messing around, no "how the universe began, as we know so far" introduction.
For that price, I would get the Insta360 OneX2 and probably would still have enough for an accessory or two. I was excited for the Action 2 but I was let down with the price, non replacable lens and a lack of 360 module
yea that non replaceable lens is major bummer, only time will tell how durable it is for users
You’ll get bored of the insta..I get sea sick
straight to the point comparison - EXCELLENT. youtube with stupid long intro's and upsell ads from the start are super annoying.
Great comprehensive review, been following since your 4-way action cam showdown. The comparison on the beach seems strange, what was the sharpening setting on both? Other comparisons have shown the two to have similar detail and sharpness, usually in GP's favor. This is also supported by your photo comparisons - the two have very similar fine details.
In your comparison, it wasn't even close, the GP looks like it was recording in 1080p.
If you watch Shanil's Best360 comparison, his looks the same too... GoPro looking softer than Action 2. I'll keep testing and comparing, I wonder if there's a big difference between 4K and 5K on GoPro. I usually try to leave most settings default, High Bitrate, etc. Sharpness was Medium I believe.
@@AuthenTech
You are lying, you hate the GO PRO you would have a home made camera and say it's better than the go pro you have been caught cheating and you should be ashamed of yourself.
@@thewalkingvloggingman7152 I don't have a GoPro, but the detail on the Action 2 is amazing compared to the Action 1.
I rekon Dji is creating some thing based on fpv drones, we had the goggles the drone, they probably intended it to be used with drones, but of course they added the modularity for the majority. I fly them myself and having a small and light but capable camera is a savior but of course everyone has their own preference
You can get a small base adapter by ulanzi for the osmo action 2 with a usb c port that allows you to connect a power bank for endless power. 😀👊👊👍👌❤️❤️
My favorite Go Pro was the Hero session. DJI obviously feels the same.
I agree, no plans for a new Hero Session either so we have to go for the DJI Action2 which is not as good and more expensive. Also think I would crack the rear screen on the Action 2 when mountain biking...
That was a so obvious and good idea. I have no idea why they screwed it up.
Hi great video. The camera can be charged when shooting from a power bank. This would not have to deal with battery life. and a Samsung Micro SDXC EVO Plus UHS-I U3 memory card can be inserted. Thanks for the info.
I definitely will go with the DJI Action 2, can't go wrong with DJI.
Is it just me or does DJI have oversharpened video? As for the horizon stabilization and other effects, I'm willing to do those in post if I can get better video quality that way.
As soon as I was disappointed by the Action 2, I went and bought the 64gb insta 360 Go 2 and absolutely love it. The GoPro is great for me for timelapses and snorkeling, but the Insta360 go 2 for everything else!
Why is that
@@isaacclarke3037 why is that what? Disappointed with the Action 2?
Small internal storage, expensive battery add ons (75 bucks!) non replaceable lens cover, and cannot change the aspect ratio in post! This camera is more trying to compete with the market for quick shots to share online and isn’t doing all that great of a job at it
The Insta360 go 2 has now twice the internal storage, charges in the case when the battery is low, you can change its lens cover, and you can change the video aspect ratio into 1:1, 16:9, or 9:16 so you don’t have to take multiple videos to share to multiple social platforms! It’s the better of the two social media quick video cameras out there in my opinion!
The GoPro in my opinion is a camera in a completely different category: it’s much larger, tougher, and takes more time to setup and secure, so you generally want to use it when you are intentionally thinking about capturing video not some quick pop shot in the moment. That means it’s a great other camera to have for things like snorkeling, timelapses, extreme action, etc etc
So yah, the winning combo for me is the GoPro Hero 9 or 10 and the Insta360 Go 2 64gb version
@@tommydaynjer5334 but still insta 360 go 2 can record only up to 15 minutes so that's no no
@@GURUANJANA1 I assure you nobody’s watching a 15 minute long clip without getting bored. If you need longer then you don’t need a quick capture device like the Action 2 or the Insta360 go 2, that’s what the GoPro is for
One thing that I rarely see mentioned in these comparisons between the GoPro Hero 10 and the DJI Action 2 is that the GoPro 10 has GPS, and the DJI Action 2 does not, that could be a big issue for some people.
So happy you finally did this review! Been waiting for this! And because you reco Action2, I’ll go for it! 🥂🎊👏🏼
He forgot to tell about the freezing and overheating problem of Gopro hero. I had Gopro before and it's really a big annoyance, I have to switch off and on so many times.
@@cyber1991 acctually the action 2 overheats much faster and the freezing on the hero can be fixed with a better sd card
@@thenorwegiansurvivalist7231
I had the best sd card before, and Gopro still freezes. It's not the sd card but the software problem.
@@cyber1991 oh well that bad but i still think gopro is better
@@thenorwegiansurvivalist7231
I used to think that in the past but not after using action 1. Gopro marketing is strong but it always freezes/hang which people conveniently forgot to tell people.
Action 2 overheating might be fixed with a firmware update and/or lower resolution
Great pace and your comparison videos are ace, love the mics comparison especially! Great job
I got Gopro already, this is a best action camera. From Vietnam
Try 2.7k with 4:3 res for better low light in DJI
Please make a comparison of Osmo Action and Osmo Action 2 where you compare the video quality.
that'd be a fun one!
@@AuthenTech Would also love to see this! Wondering if the original Osmo Action is still plenty good, even without the latest in sensor size and filming capabilities, and if the value proposition for the older Osmo Action may make it still worth considering.
Even though I don't have a dji action camera, the dji action 2 is still awesome with the ultra wide field of view
DJI Action 2 will be over heated and shut down after 4 minutes, when record 4K 120fp, take a while for camera to back to work, gopro can take 4k 240fp without a problem.
Dji looks green in the clip from the balcony and also green in the clip under water. Is it a normal bug and bad sound on it. Not something I would use myself
To record vertical with horizon lock turn on horizon lock and hit record first! Then turn it
When it comes to a wrestling match like this I always choose the bigger, blacker camera. - Norm MacDonald
Gopro looked way better. And now the only remaining Real action cam. So compare those lego cams too other cams you need too have lot of bags and extra work flow with.. Gopro do wonder, is nannycams the future, do young plb, stop watersport, snow, motor sport or ?
depends on what you want but honestly GoPro is nowhere near better than Insta360 or DJI's new Action 2.
GoPro is just the same sh** every year with almost no real improvements, they can be glad they have a "cool" brand name though that is why people are blindly buying them even though there are better alternatives for the same or even better price.
@@Coli272 ? your uninformed. Gopro used to be shity. They upgraded chips, and is outperforming every actin cam out there. I do not have any gopro, have a dji action, thats not realy close to a great cam. but it works. Action, keep focus on action. Not nannycams. Dji action is no action cam. What plb wanna shoot dont matter, it still no action cam. ist a cam. like that in ur phone
@@hurtighansen1 again - it depends on what you want. If you want a "robust" action cam then DJI Osmo Action 1 (have one by myself) or the GoPro are better than the other competitors or models. However, if let's say you want to do FPV drones then Insta360 Go2 or DJI Action 2 are way better than the bigger models (not talking about the awesome magnetic holder possibilities).
You were initially referring to the GoPro looking *way* better and that is clearly not the case.
I honestly think the Action 2 FOV is to wide. It gives a weird look to video’s.
I can understand that
@@AuthenTech is the super wide option like superview in a GoPro that stretches the edges? Is there a less wide view without cropping the image?
@@stefpix There are 3 options: Ultra Wide, Wide, Standard (Dewarp)
to get the camera to lock you have to have started it with horizon lock onand hit record before turning the camera. i had the same issue.
Ridiculously, i was interesting and prefer the djia2 than the gopro becuz of its size. But with the power or screen modules, it seems way bigger than the gopro. Thanks for this video ! I've been waiting for this !
AWSOME! THE DJI ACTION 2 WAS BATTER FROM HERO 10
IT WAS BATTER FOR ACTION,AVANTURE VIDEO.
The Action 2 captures more details. And Im always a fan of how DJI maximizes the use of magnets. The design and accessories are looking great and now they're even adding a magnetic case for better performance.
How is it that in every other review the gopro 10 video is sharper than DJI A2?
Why does the sky get ‘bluer’ towards the top-middle of the shot. The GoPro has a more consistent sky colour across the shot. It’s weird once you notice it
Thx to your review, I just purchased the dji action 2. This is my first action camera. Can’t wait to use it.
I dropped my Gopro Hero 7 at 30mph and it was still recording when I picked it up. That Action 2 will turn to dust. Also no one notice his long mutated arm while holding it on the selfie stick vlogging with the Action 2?
DJI did a good job but should have added the sd card slot on the main cam body..don't think internal storage was really need at 22gb. GoPro may also release a tiny cam now 😁
would be harder to keep waterproof if they added a hole for the SD card
Sunset recording: Do what you do when you show the horizon lock, start recording with the vertical orientation then mount horizontal. perhaps.
Yes that works though its cropped in a bit more, best thing would be to get a mount that could handle that orientation 😀
it seems like the single mic sounds better. was not expecting that.
i am so tirn on liking and disliking this camera all at once.
the magnets are fun.
its good for fpv , so win over gopro
For FPV it's a no brainer. Once they enable faster transfer the data to the micro SD with a firmware we'll see how fast the transfer can be. Maybe it'll be super easy, barely an inconvenience.
Which one? the action 2?
Do you think it would be a nice idea to mount the action 2 on top of the dji fpv?
@@anamieiro2178 DJI action 2 is lighter and also will keep the lens centered.
Just bought dji action 2 and sold my GoPro hero12. Could not be happier.
Great video man! You always make amazing reviews so it was worth the wait😀
Thanks a ton!
No mention of this overheating issue thats been mentioned in quite a few reviews online for the Action 2. You didn't use it enough or didn't have an issue?
thats not an issue if you use it like an action cam, like gopro 10 , if you let them sit down inside house , of course it will overheat, powerfull tiny cameras
I am planning an extended solo trip right now to Thailand and Vietnam. I want to make videos I'm just not sure what camera to get yet. Thanks for the video
Hmmm. This is probably the first time I've actually interested in the video sponsor. I was wondering what I would do for music when I finally start up my own channel and was just going to go with a completely silent set but the Artlist pricing seems pretty good. Was a bit concerned with what would happen to my videos if the subscription lapses and it seems they thought of that ahead of time and took the time to put that exact question to rest under the subscription page.
Thanks for the action camera comparison as well by the way. Now I'm even more conflicted with that I want to get though because each camera is fantastic at a few things but doesn't really master everything. Darnit.
Will definitely get the Action 2 for my motorcycle rides. I'm sold on that horizon lock alone.
It would be nice to see a comparison test again of these 2 action cams but with the addition of the functional case on the Action 2 this time!
I was actually watching for this comparison 😂😸
The hero 10 topping out at 100mbps is what hampers it's 5K clarity. DJI bumping it up to 130mbps is a much better way to go. More information captured is better than more resolution captured.
Yet DJI captures less detailes and information.
@@SketchTurnerZero Dji has bigger sensor, it captures more details than gopro
@@cyber1991 This video literally shows the opposite - the picture from GoPro is times better
Great comparison as always Ben!! I like the DJI most, I woul think the gopro is best but the DJI one surprised me and now going for DJI. Love the wide angle and the colors. Also it does a great job is locking the horizon level and well as very well stabilized image! It is true that the gopro hero 10 did better in terms of pictures but I think we use the action camera for shooting videos in situations where a DSLR would not be appropriate and yeah definitely going for the DJI Action 2!!!
Good video! Was waiting to see it. How does the hyperlapse compare to go pro and the original action? Keep up the great content.
With the orientation, did you rotate first then record? I wonder if you turn the Action 2 off, then back on again with it in the desired orientation will that fix it?
I look forward to the comparison with the Go 2.
I tried that too. I think it's a sensor orientation thing, and no Horizon Leveling feature yet
keşke ülkemizde bu kadar pahalı olmasaydı. 8000 TL ne demek... keşke biri hediye etse :)
thank you waited for this video lkke forever😁 love you
Thank you. I just ordered the DJI Action 2. I like the colours, the company and I look forward to my new toy. Cheers! 😀
So , which one would you take :
THE GO PRO
OR
DJI
??????
I was eagerly waiting for this video. Keep it up man 🤙💪🤙🤙
Hope you enjoyed it!
First review I've seen with low light test. Thanks for that. The slightly larger sensor on the DJI is meh. Cool gadget tho. I want one.
Been waiting for this Video Comparison,and it's now Uploaded! Thank you ☺️💙
Also get a magnet uv filter to go over the lens to protect it you can get circular polariser and nd filters too that can be stacked
7:30 mins yes I have same issue no 16.9 in 90 degree horizontal which sucks as I wanted to mount sideways on my helmet, hope DJI can fix this as I need that in 4k 60fps with rocksteady
Osmo action vs action 2 would be appreciated!
Thanks for the best reviews once again.
I was waiting for your review on this.. Thank you
That horizen lock is mindblowing! Thanks!
Every comparison that you make is great and those places, wow. Where is that?
Orange Beach, AL - it was beautiful!
Thanks for review - helped my choice for DJI Action 2. Also calves at 2:25!
Can't wait for comparison with insta go 2
DJI ACTION 2: I wanted to know if with the piece detached from the video camera you could see what you are filming with the wifi connection. If you can't do it wouldn't it have been great if you could do it?? Have some kind of external monitor to see what is being filmed!!! Can they do it with an update or is it impossible because it's just a hardware issue??
I’ve had to many cases where my DJI wasn’t recording due to heat… I’m sorry but I’m sticking with my Hero 10
The frozen issue is more like GoPro thing instead. I have been using dji since it first came out in 2019 and not even once i got the frozen screen.
If only everyone did comparison reviews like this, great job, thanks.
The most awaited video. Finally. Love from Uganda 🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬
🙏
Uganda has internet 🙀
Nicely presented and balanced comparisons. Can you remove the Action 2 from a magnetic mount with ONE HAND?
Great question, yes you can
That 5K looks like up sampled 1080p. The saving grace of the new GoPro is the audio. DJI really needs to up their mics, they sound nearly unusable. At 1:53 the blue sky was flickering like crazy on both cameras, was that an HDR issue?
Good question, that looks like a bitrate sampling issue.
They have a wireless mic system, which works fantastic. I think if you are into their ecosystem, DJI works great. But if you only want an action cam, then you will need to trade off something at some point.
Will not be forced to active an app, reason I don't use any DJI products.
Do these come with controllers? To hit record so u don't have to touch them?
No wonder they disable the dislike button
For my kind of use (indoor range shooting, computer webcam, etc.), I think I'm going to stick with the Hero 8. Thank you, you've been a great help for deciding to pick it.
Edit: A part of me is craving for sharper looking images though; 12 MP isn't a lot, even if it gets the job done. But if you want to see sand grains, consider getting something better than the 8.
How do you like it?
I love the versatility of the Action 2 but the GoPro 10 just seems leaps ahead of the Action in terms of images quality. Dynamic Range, Distortion, and Resolution seem to be in GoPro's favor. But form factor is really enticing with the Action. Different cameras for different scenarios.
it's hard to tell really. dynamic range looked good on gopro (his shirt) but then in one of the pool shots you could see more with the action 2. sky was GoPro Blue as expected but nothing that can't be tweaked in post. resolution is indeed better in gopro. i think at the end of the day , if not looking side-by-side, it doesn't really matter.
IMO the ability to change the battery out on the GoPro wins it for me.
