AKASO Brave 4 Pro 4K30FPS Action Camera - 131ft Waterproof Camera with Touch Screen Advanced EIS Remote Control 5X Zoom Underwater Camera - Grey

Bought for my little girl to go to Florida with as she’s becoming quite the wee vlogger. It’s come with everything you need, an underwater case which is never off. Every attachment you could think off, she’s had it on her bike handlebars, her helmet, clipped to her jacket. From the videos she showed me it’s very smooth - u barely notice she’s walking/riding and the picture quality looked great, she’s happy with it and like I said it cost me under £100

Was looking for an action camera to take on fishing trip abroad in a few months time, never had an action camera before, I did a lot of research to pick the right one to try as did not want to spend a fortune in case I never used again. Most of the reviews pointed to the Akaso Brave 4 Pro so I took a change and got one. Wow, What a bargain this little camera is, so far have only used to test in the garden to see what the quality was like, I was amazed with this little camera, the image was great, stabilisation was good when running round garden to test it, the sound quality was good. Cannot say how it operates under water as I will not be using it for this purpose, although I might try one day just to check it out. I was not expecting it to be this good, the amount of accessories that come with it are good, although I can see I won't use them all, have got myself a chest harness to use with it, the only thing missing was a "J" hook to attach to harness. I will be using it before I go abroad using the harness on a local fishing trip. The 2 batteries that come with it are a good touch, when I looked at other cameras you had to buy extra batteries, would I recommend this camera, yes if you are looking for an easy to use 1st action camera, easy to use as well, the Akaso app seems to be OK, but would recommend downloading videos and pics to laptop direct as did take a while just using the WiFi option. I don't normally do reviews but was so surprised by this camera I felt it might help others to choose

So far I have only used this mounted on my cycle at leisurly pace to and from work. I have tested it indoors and it doesn't like low-light conditions, I am told most action cams don't. As always, some experimentation will be required to get the right settings for what suits you. For my bike, I have it set 1080p x 60fps. This gives a better opportunity to freeze-frame a number plate for example than 1080p x 30fps, but creates a smaller file size than 120fps. It has some great features, all of which can be found in on-line videos (not by me). At the settings I use it with, each battery lasts almost 2 hours. So, what will I use it for? Well, as said, attached to my bike for general documentation of rides, I also want to head mount it to document my drone flying sessions and intend to take it camping soon where there is a pub which has a shallow, clear fish pond, so an opportunity for some underwater shots there. Action cam Vs Phone camera. I ain't gonna lie, your phone camera prob takes better vids & pics BUT, my phone for example costs more to replace shoul it get dropped or lost, does not have image stablization, is not weather / waterproof, is a pain to mount anywhere and it is important to me that is has battery life when I'm in the middle of nowhere. Summary - Great little camera for the price. Loads of accessories, two batteries which can be charged at the same time (or just charge the one in the cam) and lots of features.

The AKASO Brave 4 Pro is a solid little action camera with a lot to offer at its price point. The front screen is a really useful feature for framing shots, especially for vlogging or selfies. It’s compact, easy to use, and captures decent footage for casual use. It comes with a hard plastic waterproof case, which is great for underwater activities — though I’ve noticed some rust starting to appear after a few uses, which is a bit disappointing for a camera designed for those environments. Unfortunately, the first unit I received had an SD card slot issue where the card wouldn’t sit properly. I ended up losing the card and all my holiday footage, which was very frustrating. That said, AKASO’s customer service was fantastic, super responsive and helpful — they replaced the camera after I sent back the faulty one (though I did have to cover the cost of tracked return shipping). Overall, it’s a good budget action cam. Solid customer support.

This is obviously not a top tier premium camera, but with that there isn't much to dislike. All of my experience is from using the camera as a helmet cam on my motorbike. The image quality is very good. Image stabilisation works very well and I've had no issues with the waterproof case. Unfortunately the waterproof case gives no ability to use an external mic, and travelling at between 40 - 70mph gives far to much wind noise during playback. Night mode is fairly good, though my bikes dash does impact the exposure somewhat. Battery life is good. I'd prefer it to be more but 1 battery lasts at least 1.5h on 1080p30fps. My biggest problem with the camera is actually to do with the time/date setting. It keeps resetting to the start of the year. Seems to not be related to removing the battery either. In addition to the cameras pros, it also comes with software for your phone (or probably tablet but I downloaded it on my phone.) The software is free, and far exceeds anything I expected from either accompanying or moreso, free software. You can alter audio, and video with multiple layers and overlays. Export in multiple formats. Again. Just great.

Great Little camera with all I need to get started.

Haven't used it yet but setting up easy and looks great.

The ‘diving mode’ is awful and just brings everything up as yellow on blue. The app connects to the camera but won’t show any video or photos so I’m now10k miles away from my computer and unable to download any images or video. I’ve even taken the microSD card out and put it into my card reader on my iPad (which works for everything else) but the card shows no content. The metal nut has also started rusting after 5 dives so definitely not an underwater suitable camera. Would NOT recommend at all! If I hadn’t thrown the packaging away this would be getting returned as soon as I get home.

Received this camera as a gift. Tried it for now only once on the water and so far it works great. Was already looking for a while for a new action camera to replace my missing gopro hero 3 but could not decide and justify the cost. Pricing was good, and for the limited amateur use it looks good, in usability, picture and video quality. Setup was easy and went without a glitch.

it’s not working

I was traveling and my cell phone broke, so this action camera became my main camera, and I was surprised with the excellent quality of the image, (although only during the day at night the quality is not good for Photos) and underwater the quality it's excellent

Video and photo are clear. Stabilization is good. Price is right.

Recently bought - it turn off after 1 minutes using a go kart - I believe it is a faulty product - now I don’t know how to solve this through Amazon - not happy at all
