CivilGuy those new limits... So many will be literally wiped out. I was planning to get going with RUclips, music stuff, synthesizers, studio, Amiga 500... To get some dozens of euros per month to buy like bicycle parts etc small. It's just not feasible. You are a correct guy, I'd wish my sub counted... Of course it does but... Beyond that you have my sympathy. I'm pretty confident this time Google hits it - to the rocks. We'll see waves and ripples of people leaping towards alternatives. I've been watching their products for a decade or two and to be honest I no longer see where they are going. It's no longer "us" with the cool company, that's for sure.
Sami Jumppanen I completely agree with you but one thing to consider, if you are talented with producing music tracks start now. Post your music, you never know when you might get a surge of viewers coming in. I’ve been lucky a few times, and thankfully I maintain a good solid 1,000 views everyday. Keep on trying we will both get there soon
CivilGuy yes, there are two options: either do it or not. I'm not mad at this for myself, I'm not losing anything, but I admit I was shocked. There just is so much of great content that never gets the deserved attention, that it's lottery. Although, it's also true: you only lose for sure if you don't even try. I began making music in 1990 and I admit I haven't pushed it. If I tried, I'd have to find a way around the fact I'm not ready for being in the picture. My small ramblings. I'm not saying no :) But you're doing good work with your videos, keep it up!
Wow, you have plenty of composing experience. I understand family is top priority, but if you find just a bit of time in your day to create a new song and do something you love, it’ll al be worth it in the end.
As a matter of fact I’ve been playing the piano for nearly 13 years and at some point I thought about preforming covers and posting them on my channel. You can do it!
As a cheap alternative to GoPro, I think it works fine. Gives you a way to learn it's capabilities without spending $300. I didn't expect much for $30.
Je Dingle, are you serious? It's not even what is is advertised as, it has scratching the screen is digitally scratchy, which is surprising because it's not even film. You would have to go back to the early 2000's to find that quality in a camera. Even for 20 dollars, a Nokia phone would be better than that.
I have buy this camera from amazon before 2 months and it works very well i test her underwater on the mountain everything was ok... I don´t know why yours don´t works but my works perfect ...
OutdoorFun /GR Please reply Can you tell me how to transfer video from this cam to My mobile. When I put the video in sd card and open sd card in mobile the device only shows the audio of the video. Please help
Minecraft i don't know waht you do one way to do is put the video in your PC and chance it from AVI to MP4 with a program I thing it will work because not all the mobiles can read AVI files... I hope that I help you...
Got it for 5 bucks at a thrift store!!!!😂😂😂😂 I got robbed!!-! This camera is a sleaze bag street vendor's dream! BUT you can put it in the lake and if it craps out, you didn't loose anything!!!! Well, maybe 5 bucks!!!!😂!😂😂😂😂
They make this body and many different companies use it with different video specs. SJCam uses this body for their SJ4000 and SJ5000 and the video is much better.
Got it for Christmas a few years ago and finally going to give it a go driving through Sedona. I had a little higher hopes for capturing the colors but, meh, it was free. Thanks for the quick review. If I find that I enjoy the experience, I'll buy a nicer one
Hm, I think this could be used as an accessory pack for SJ4000. Battery and all. Just ditch the camera. Even without the occasional striping, it is horrible. It could be VGA resolution, upscaled. Whatever it is, it is a toy grade sensor and/or chip.
I have a very similar camera that I bought on Ebay last year. I got busy working and doing other stuff. Winter hit and I never really used it except inside the house for a short film of my new grandbaby. The video seemed fine to me. The sound sucks especially when inside the waterproof case. I finally used it last week when I took my boat out with my son and family. I attached it to the boat windshield and forgot it was there. I had turned it on. It was set to loop. When we went out to clean the boat the next day we found the camera still attached to the windshield and took it in the house. That night I decided to take the SD card out and put it in my laptop. I had about seven videos on the card about ten minutes long each. The quality was very good. My laptop has an ultra HD screen and the video showed up very sharp and clear. The sound was not good. I was able to make out who was talking but most of the words were too low to hear. All in all I would say that the quality of the video, in my camera at least, is excellent. The battery lasted several hours for sure. I am going to take it out again next time we go out on the boat when the weather warms up a bit more. I will set it to continuously run to see low long the battery lasts. By the way mine came with two batteries and a load of accessories including a remote but you can download an app for free to use it remotely also. The waterproof case works very well. My son tried it in five feet of water in our pool and it worked fine with no leaks. I will test the case when I go snorkeling. I will put a paper towel inside not the camera and go as deep as I can and see if it leaks. I paid a bit more for mine. I can't remember for sure but I think I paid around $35 for mine. So what do you expect from a $20 dollar camera. I know I heard you in the video say you expect it to be perfect. Well that is not realistic. If you want something a lot better you will spend several hundred dollars for it. I will continue to use this camera till I feel I have a need for a GoPro and then I will spend several hundred dollars for it. My advice to folks that are looking for something to take good quality videos with and not spend over $35, do your homework and shop around. There are a lot of these cameras out there that have many accessories included. And remember that you can't expect a GoPro for $35. You have to evaluate your financial situation and balance that with your needs. If you need an excellent action camera with excellent quality picture and excellent audio with a battery that lasts a long time and instructions in readable English then spend the hundreds of dollars on the GoPro. But if all you need is an action camera that will include all the accessories so you don't have to spend a fortune buying the accessories afterwards, that will take good quality high resolution video, you don't need the sound, just the video and you don't want to spend much for it then shop around and consider these little knowoffs as a viable realistic option for you. Remember that with the GoPro all you get is the camera. You need to purchase all the accessories seperately and some of them are no better than the ones included with the knockoffs for an elevated price. Look on RUclips for other reviews. There are many that satisfied owners of one of these little knowoffs has posted. Also look for reviews on other websites and see which ones are getting decent reviews. Good luck and I hope you all find what you are looking for. Mine shows up on the iCam App as an Eken H9R_002089. Don't know if that helps any.
I can confirm after buying this cheap ebay 4k action camera I was too disappointed with the quality. I did a full video and photo review of it on my channel and the quality was shocking.
I learned the hard way @$50 at the time (years ago) and warned relatives that were interested, that these were terrible and a scam. Sadly one relative still bought one too. The best thing about these is all of the accessories that come with them. At best, these cheap cams are bes for letting lids use them, or simulating old video cameras. If you wan a cheap but GREAT action cam, at the very least, buy an ek7000 by Akaso. Actual great REAL 1080p, and 2.7k. And even 4k. For well under $100. I even did a side by side driving comparison with a gopro hero 3 black, and the Akaso was as good or better video.
if the camera looks same that you purchase,DON'T WORRY!Some says that is sj4000 but no.I was looking one day at internet and what.The sj4000 box isn't the same.Just don't worry if there is anyone want the camera see at goplus sp1080ps
Dang! Wish I would've seen this video before I purchased two of them! Looks like we purchased from the same outfit. I haven't gotten a chance to try them yet but I don't intend on using them for action cam purposes. I'm only going to use them only for recording desktop videos. I also noticed the discrepancy in frame rates according to their listing. Also, I think you can look in the version setting of your cam to see exactly what model you purchased (doubt it is the SJ5000 as it appears in their listing). Hope I have better luck.
i baught 2 and there shite one stutters wen recording the 720p is the same as 1080p it dies after 1H:30M so in a rant i lobbed one of them on the floor n it shattered i paid £13 for each on amazon
Ogre Supreme You get what you paid. Mines works very well. I don't record any video over 45min but the clarity is awesome for $23.00 bucks at wish. But I will be upgrading to a much better one, Now that I have a much better income.
Yup, was trying to expand my camera gears for my channel, dont let me start about that new YT rule :( Was also tempted to try a very similar camera and altough it didn't had the fuzzy lines you had, the image quality was just too bad. I'll probably keep it if I ever try something that would be risky for the camera and if it breaks, too bad. At least you get a few accessories that might be pricy for a genuine camera
I was actually considering buying this camera then if I enjoyed capturing some footage I'd buy a good one, I thought I would search RUclips first... And I'm glad I did!
I purchased one of these and omg terrible (mine actually came with a 16gb memory card that for some reason ONLY worked in the camera and then only if it had something wedging it in as it was super thin). The resolution of the camera is actually 640x480 and even then its a terrible version of a 640x480 image. No matter what you set it in the menu its always the same image quality that comes out. You cannot even make out a number plate that is directly in front of the camera (and this is UK plates im talking about which are far bigger than most countries). It is terrible.
i have just seen your video now but it is too late cos I have got it today from the post and I paid 159 euro, I was disappointed because I ordered GoPro 12 but not 1080p sports cam. thanks for sharing.
I recently bought this camera just like yours. My problem is there are part of the video that wasn't save. And sometimes it ended up after 3-4 mins in each video even though I set it up to 10 mins. How can I solve this problem bro? Have any ideas???
Wow, that video replay on camera was bad. I think the open bag is typical that you rec'd from someone else on ebay that was not happy also. I just received a 4k Sport Camera and hope I have better luck. I pd mid 30s for mine. Thank you for your video and I think I learned my lesson a long time ago to be wary of getting things from ebay.
I'm not having any of those problems you are my problem is it will show recording but when you plug up to USB to playback it will only show video recoded for about 10-15
Waiting for mine. I'll be using it on my bike helmet to deter bullies in their cars who try to pushmeoff the road. Not even sure I'll be buying an SD card for it lol
I already have 4. year SD28 Acmel and in addition to the initial firmware, which color the face red with her is no problem. Yes I had to modify the battery from SJ, which are a little bigger but that's all. She was standing at half the price of the SJ4000 in the Czech republic. After playing the firmware is also a menu indistinguishable from SJ and the image is now in color OK. For$ 20 you cannot expect a miracle :-)
My wife got me one of these for my fly fishing trips, And it works as intended. The only thing is that the battery doesn't last so you have to time your recording otherwise your screwed lol. But it works very well
I just got the action camera model apc4k-1000 and for the price the video & pics are OK.. however not able to connect to wifi... is there a trick to get this to connect or I probably have a defected one.
You’re lucky, mine didn’t even come with instructions. The battery on mine doesn’t seem to hold a charge. It’ll say it’s charged, but then drains quickly and shuts off. I’m wondering if I might be doing something wrong.
To all who are watching this video I do not recommend buying the camera on ebay because most of them are cheap imitations, better buy it by amazon if you want I leave the link
These are 20 box at Home Depot right now. For the money it's a great starter camera. Yours obviously looks like there are some issues. I got these for my boys instead of handing them my GoPro. They work actually fine and will be a stepping-stone until I trust them to move to something more expensive. I look at something like this as a disposable camera.
I've run into the same thing on geek.wish. I bought three that were listed as F60Rs. The specs are similar but not quite. Then I bought 2 that were supposed to be SJ7000s doing 4k30 1080p60 and 720p120 the SJs are the same cam you got. If it helps they all are made by General Plus cams.
Honestly I’m jealous that yours is a lot better then the one I got. I had bought one. years ago. Mine is missing a lot of things unlike yours. I wish the one I have had HDMI mine honestly sucks but nice for a camera to be sacrice when I’ll be recording something dangerous 😂
hi ive had mine for over 3 months had no issues also brought 2 others for xmas presents no issues it comes with 12 months warranty and i feel for the price good item not paying 100s for a gopro it does the job with no issues,,
Got one of these... yours has a common problem that mine had as well. Mine works very well now and is well worth the money. All you need to do if your getting wierd lines, or if its not turning on, is watch my video on how to fix this problem, Ill upload it soon, bit tricky as its not obvious
My wife just bought a similar camera off of Wish. I'm convinced it is a knock off of a knock off. It only has a micro usb port and a micro sdcard slot. It has the white screen of death right out of the box. It shoots video that looks horrible, but its 100% useless without the LCD screen. I've tried over 40 different firmware versions and the camera won't acknowledge any firmware file and will not update.
I’m sorry about your situation, I would suggest looking for a cheap action camera on amazon. I have done several reviews already on a few that I think are reasonable!
i bought this from Lazada. well it was ok for some time only haha! i inserted a micro sd and connect it to my pc. but the pc ask to repair some files so i clicked ok. after that, i was successful to upload captured videos to fb. however, when i tried to disconnect it from the pc, when I turn it on, the display lcd became white screen. and yah. it broke too fast. hahaha! though still I can record a videos even if I cannot see the user interface in the screen because it is all white. damn.... next time I will buy a better with brand. :D good luck guys.
It’s a Chinese made camera I bought one with 4K and I know the quality wouldn’t be good I using it on my bike for a dash cam where I live as a safety camera.
I’m totally heartbroken right now... I just got mine delivered and I was wonder how to operate this one so I search for reviews and I chance on your video. I am so speechless! Same packaging , same accessories and definitely same item... and still despite being sad I STILL DONT KNOW HOW TO OPERATE or how to take videos since you didnt mentioned it😭😭😭
I've been looking for a new action cam because one I bought a few years ago (I guess at least 5) for 30€ had quite a poor selection of mounts and the quality of the video (high quality is only 720p) doesn't really satisfy anymore. I went on to ebay and saw this but I guess I'll have to pay up a bit more if I want a good one.
Given the fact these have been out for like 5 or 6 years I'd hope the price would be lower by now lol, but for $25 with same/one day prime shipping (depending on the time of day) oh well
This is not the original "unbranded" SJ4000 sadly. Box is completely wrong too. The unbranded SJ4000 box has a Snow Skier on front for example though no SJCAM logos. Splash screen says "Welcome" so many think it is fake but a quick check of menu "Version" and clearly displays SJCAM with Nyyyymmdd V1.0 firmware
Please reply Can you tell me how to transfer video from this cam to My mobile. When I put the video in sd card and open sd card in mobile the device only shows the audio of the video. Please help
Minecraft some of these cameras record in the .avi format (like the one in this unboxing) while others film in .mp4. I'm not too sure which model action camera or phone you're using, but maybe your phone cannot read certain file formats? Have you tried placing your SD card in a computer?

CivilGuy those new limits... So many will be literally wiped out. I was planning to get going with RUclips, music stuff, synthesizers, studio, Amiga 500...

As a matter of fact I’ve been playing the piano for nearly 13 years and at some point I thought about preforming covers and posting them on my channel. You can do it!
If you want to get a vintage 90's VHS look, dang that camera is probably great!
Yeah it would be perfect for like movies 😂😂 i can't believe the stuff sold on eBay
Lol my hi8 had better quality then this
I'd rather do it in a video editor
The video looks very 80s VHS LOL.
As a cheap alternative to GoPro, I think it works fine. Gives you a way to learn it's capabilities without spending $300. I didn't expect much for $30.
For the price I think that is pretty good enough . what are you expecting with that price
its 2019.. i was hoping this technology is cheaper by now.
I agree 👍
I expect 1080P if it says it's 1080P no matter the price.
Rafon it aint even 1080p, i cant get the cam out from the cover and i cant view the vid. Its not even fish lens
Je Dingle, are you serious? It's not even what is is advertised as, it has scratching the screen is digitally scratchy, which is surprising because it's not even film.
You would have to go back to the early 2000's to find that quality in a camera.
Even for 20 dollars, a Nokia phone would be better than that.

Minecraft you ned a same camera model but 10$ more expensive WI fi wersion to can conect it to phone idk if IOS to
You're probably one of the sellers of this piece of junk!
That filming "effect" looks pretty cool. I think is good for some artistic filming or something like that.
Got it for 5 bucks at a thrift store!!!!😂😂😂😂 I got robbed!!-! This camera is a sleaze bag street vendor's dream! BUT you can put it in the lake and if it craps out, you didn't loose anything!!!! Well, maybe 5 bucks!!!!😂!😂😂😂😂

Thanks for the quick review. If I find that I enjoy the experience, I'll buy a nicer one
20$ is good enough for a decent camera you can't expect every thing to be luxurious about a 20$ camera
I just want it so I can record my mowing videos
I just bought one of these and it is honestly great for the price
Hm, I think this could be used as an accessory pack for SJ4000. Battery and all. Just ditch the camera. Even without the occasional striping, it is horrible. It could be VGA resolution, upscaled. Whatever it is, it is a toy grade sensor and/or chip.
perkele
I have one of these but I don't know how to get rid of the time stamp on videos and pictures.
It very well beats the new Google Pixel 2 and iPhone X - with the price.😋

When 1080p and 170 white angle is Descripted it should have it. Even if it cost 1€ or $
I have one and it’s amazing. The glitching must be some manufacturing defect.
I have 4 of this same camera and all work very well, you got a bad one and need to send it back
Same I just got mine today as it is my birthday can you tell me how to upload it onto my phone pls
i have it its fine unlike yours yours is broken
biking studios same
Same mine takes really good photos
this camera is so cool
I own 5 of them and thus far they are not to bad for $15.00 , i even abuse them a bit and haven't killed one yet...
I charged the camera, but once unplugged nothing happens- it won't start unless plugged in.... what do I do?
I learned the hard way @$50 at the time (years ago) and warned relatives that were interested, that these were terrible and a scam. Sadly one relative still bought one too. The best thing about these is all of the accessories that come with them. At best, these cheap cams are bes for letting lids use them, or simulating old video cameras.
If you wan a cheap but GREAT action cam, at the very least, buy an ek7000 by Akaso. Actual great REAL 1080p, and 2.7k. And even 4k. For well under $100.

I have one of them
Its so good
But i didnt buy it on ebay i bought it from a store
Lol, some of that footage looks like it was shot in the 1990's. If you're looking for a camera with that look I guess it will work. Nice video though.
Dang! Wish I would've seen this video before I purchased two of them! Looks like we purchased from the same outfit.

Ogre Supreme
I just ordered one and now I'm terrified that it's gonna be bad 😬
I bought it and it records perfectly, And I work for you?
i baught 2 and there shite one stutters wen recording the 720p is the same as 1080p it dies after 1H:30M so in a rant i lobbed one of them on the floor n it shattered i paid £13 for each on amazon
Ogre Supreme in my country the action camera is so good.

This looks like a good camera for filming vintage/artsy type things. Some people go for that look on purpose
Noel L yes, and is very cheap. With good lights this will work for reviews at home.
I was actually considering buying this camera then if I enjoyed capturing some footage I'd buy a good one, I thought I would search RUclips first... And I'm glad I did!
The extra equipment in the box is worth the money alone.
i am 12 and i bought this it am happy with my purchase because its my first camera. i think for $16 its a pretty good deal but its not the best.
And the glitches.from the footage?
Its actually 10.80 P video quality.
Exactly right
For some reason I feel like you would make great air soft vids
If your like me who likes aesthetic stuff i would recommend this
Dude this camera was made in 2009 of course the camera quality is gonna be bad
Thank you! This video was very helpful. This camera films like video quality back in the 90's just seeing the glitches while you were filming.
I got the sjs100w from E-Boda and looks like good quality to me
I got one of these 7 years ago and since then I've took it too 6 different countries. And gone reef diving many times with no issues.
speechless gaming that was 7 years ago, buy one today, you’ll be surprised at what you get
I purchased one of these and omg terrible (mine actually came with a 16gb memory card that for some reason ONLY worked in the camera and then only if it had something wedging it in as it was super thin).

You cannot even make out a number plate that is directly in front of the camera (and this is UK plates im talking about which are far bigger than most countries). It is terrible.
i have just seen your video now but it is too late cos I have got it today from the post and I paid 159 euro, I was disappointed because I ordered GoPro 12 but not 1080p sports cam. thanks for sharing.
I looked at the 4k ultra hd camera on ebay - You should get it -- realy nice!!!
Smithy Sir yeah some are good, just stay away from the cheap stuff
It looks like a vhs camcorder.
I recently bought this camera just like yours. My problem is there are part of the video that wasn't save. And sometimes it ended up after 3-4 mins in each video even though I set it up to 10 mins. How can I solve this problem bro?
Have any ideas???
You bought this cam at eBay. I bought this cam at Aliexpress and my cam is good

Hi. I just wanted to ask, I just ordered my camera today. Is it good quality, like can I vlog and take videos that have quality with it?❤
Yeah bro!
App name :XDV
You have to connect with same wifi
Wow, that video replay on camera was bad. I think the open bag is typical that you rec'd from someone else on ebay that was not happy also. I just received a 4k Sport Camera and hope I have better luck. I pd mid 30s for mine. Thank you for your video and I think I learned my lesson a long time ago to be wary of getting things from ebay.
I'm not having any of those problems you are my problem is it will show recording but when you plug up to USB to playback it will only show video recoded for about 10-15
Hey your action camera has a defect I have one and it is amazing
Waiting for mine. I'll be using it on my bike helmet to deter bullies in their cars who try to pushmeoff the road. Not even sure I'll be buying an SD card for it lol
I paid $12 for my mines. Used mines for the range to the beach. It haven't let me down yet. Plus my pics and videos are crystal clear
I already have 4. year SD28 Acmel and in addition to the initial
firmware, which color the face red with her is no problem. Yes I had to
modify the battery from SJ, which are a little bigger but that's all.
She was standing at half the price of the SJ4000 in the Czech republic.
After playing the firmware is also a menu indistinguishable from SJ and
the image is now in color OK. For$ 20 you cannot expect a miracle :-)
i like how it looks like. i mean how the graphics look like. its like its recorded from the 90's or 80's or something
My wife got me one of these for my fly fishing trips, And it works as intended. The only thing is that the battery doesn't last so you have to time your recording otherwise your screwed lol. But it works very well
hi...how long does the battery last?
@@simonmodiba2500 Almost 2 hours
@@lovetheoutdoors9485 2 hours of continuous action?
@@simonmodiba2500 Yes
@@lovetheoutdoors9485 fastatic....thanks for your time
I just got the action camera model apc4k-1000 and for the price the video & pics are OK.. however not able to connect to wifi... is there a trick to get this to connect or I probably have a defected one.
You’re lucky, mine didn’t even come with instructions. The battery on mine doesn’t seem to hold a charge. It’ll say it’s charged, but then drains quickly and shuts off. I’m wondering if I might be doing something wrong.
I tried to buy one of these and just got a rubber protector for the damn thing
I just got it I should of seen this video last week. I also purchased a sj9000 I be getting it in a week do you have any video of it?
Bro you got a roach. I would return it. I've seen plenty of these doing great video. I wouldn't bash it until you make sure it's not just a lemon
The camera has a very distinct artistic video mode
Nice review bro...Very helpful😮..keep it up!!👍🏻🙂✌🏻
To all who are watching this video I do not recommend buying the camera on ebay because most of them are cheap imitations, better buy it by amazon if you want I leave the link
These are 20 box at Home Depot right now. For the money it's a great starter camera. Yours obviously looks like there are some issues. I got these for my boys instead of handing them my GoPro. They work actually fine and will be a stepping-stone until I trust them to move to something more expensive. I look at something like this as a disposable camera.
at the second hand shop mine was $40 😐👌
Can I ask what camera you used for this video? I really like the quality of it. Thanks and stay safe~~ ^^
I've run into the same thing on geek.wish. I bought three that were listed as F60Rs. The specs are similar but not quite. Then I bought 2 that were supposed to be SJ7000s doing 4k30 1080p60 and 720p120 the SJs are the same cam you got. If it helps they all are made by General Plus cams.
Hey civil guy can you please review the maifang 1080p action camera!
Honestly I’m jealous that yours is a lot better then the one I got.
I had bought one. years ago. Mine is missing a lot of things unlike yours. I wish the one I have had HDMI mine honestly sucks but nice for a camera to be sacrice when I’ll be recording something dangerous 😂
hi ive had mine for over 3 months had no issues also brought 2 others for xmas presents no issues it comes with 12 months warranty and i feel for the price good item not paying 100s for a gopro it does the job with no issues,,
Ta caméra doit être défectueuse. Les enregistrements que je réalise sont très bien.
Thank you for the review! You prevented me from making a huge mistake. Blessings!
" a huge mistake."...... IT COST $20 YALL!!! LMFAO
Shoit,I just bought this type Camera,but haven't had the chance to open it and I'm not too expectant if it now 🤣😂
Guess I'll find out soon .
_Did you find out?😂👀_
@@DoctorRickSanchez Man,...I wasn't expecting much after your review and don't know if it works 😂 I pribigit ripped off 🤣
i got this cam and its great it doesnt have anything bad
How about the battery???
Have u tested motion detection in night vision?
Do you think its resolution will improve if I changed its lens, say with an SJ4000 lens. (hoping it is compatible)?
Got one of these... yours has a common problem that mine had as well. Mine works very well now and is well worth the money. All you need to do if your getting wierd lines, or if its not turning on, is watch my video on how to fix this problem, Ill upload it soon, bit tricky as its not obvious
Sir, how did you remove the battery cover?
Ima pick this up cuz i lost my gopro hero few years back cant find it. Can i plug this into my computer and upload it like a gopro?
How did you get to the menu? Nobody shows that... I can't get the manu at all...
The power button is the menu button
The empty bag probably held the micro section card which I bet was installed. My unit doesn’t really work as advertised
My wife just bought a similar camera off of Wish. I'm convinced it is a knock off of a knock off. It only has a micro usb port and a micro sdcard slot. It has the white screen of death right out of the box. It shoots video that looks horrible, but its 100% useless without the LCD screen. I've tried over 40 different firmware versions and the camera won't acknowledge any firmware file and will not update.
I’m sorry about your situation, I would suggest looking for a cheap action camera on amazon. I have done several reviews already on a few that I think are reasonable!

Wish is a scam site.
Nice review this camera is good for kids as toy only
How much video time can you record with 32gb at 720p?
alot...
Thank u for this I'm sending it back b 4 I start using it!!!!!!
i bought this from Lazada. well it was ok for some time only haha! i inserted a micro sd and connect it to my pc. but the pc ask to repair some files so i clicked ok. after that, i was successful to upload captured videos to fb. however, when i tried to disconnect it from the pc, when I turn it on, the display lcd became white screen. and yah. it broke too fast. hahaha! though still I can record a videos even if I cannot see the user interface in the screen because it is all white. damn.... next time I will buy a better with brand. :D good luck guys.
I got it as one of a few free gift when purchasing a phone. Haven't try it though.
It’s a Chinese made camera I bought one with 4K and I know the quality wouldn’t be good I using it on my bike for a dash cam where I live as a safety camera.
I’m totally heartbroken right now... I just got mine delivered and I was wonder how to operate this one so I search for reviews and I chance on your video. I am so speechless! Same packaging , same accessories and definitely same item... and still despite being sad I STILL DONT KNOW HOW TO OPERATE or how to take videos since you didnt mentioned it😭😭😭
It reminded me of the video of my aunt's marriage at 85. XDD
Velquiam Dver lol
don't know what happened to your purchase ....but i have exactly the same one and it works just fine
I've been looking for a new action cam because one I bought a few years ago (I guess at least 5) for 30€ had quite a poor selection of mounts and the quality of the video (high quality is only 720p) doesn't really satisfy anymore. I went on to ebay and saw this but I guess I'll have to pay up a bit more if I want a good one.
How do you access the pictures and videos?
On my camera brightness is Huge and everything is White i tried everything pls help
My screen will not turn off it says action camera. Does that mean it's recording for a amount of time?
I m also going to buy this camera but I buy gopro hero 6 thanks for your advice
Thanks ..
*U bought the fake one dude 🤦♀️*
All right
What other options for this prclice
Given the fact these have been out for like 5 or 6 years I'd hope the price would be lower by now lol, but for $25 with same/one day prime shipping (depending on the time of day) oh well
Me and my dad bought 4 for $400 and we got fuc* I was looking at them to day and wish I saw this before !!!!
This is not the original "unbranded" SJ4000 sadly. Box is completely wrong too. The unbranded SJ4000 box has a Snow Skier on front for example though no SJCAM logos. Splash screen says "Welcome" so many think it is fake but a quick check of menu "Version" and clearly displays SJCAM with Nyyyymmdd V1.0 firmware
Please reply Can you tell me how to transfer video from this cam to
My mobile.
When I put the video in sd card and open sd card in mobile the device only shows the audio of the video.
Please help
Minecraft some of these cameras record in the .avi format (like the one in this unboxing) while others film in .mp4. I'm not too sure which model action camera or phone you're using, but maybe your phone cannot read certain file formats?
Have you tried placing your SD card in a computer?
CivilGuy if it shows the video , atleast I can give a rating for the video quality
Or I will just return it now
I have one it not excellent but it is pretty good for a $20 camera what do you expect it should be perfect
mjerz01 if a listed item stated iPhone X and you received a flip phone how would you react
CivilGuy I would not care
mjerz01 thanks for your comment
Mine looks like that but its a Eken. It works great.
