Apexcam Action Camera 4K Sports Camera 20MP 40M 170°Wide-Angle WiFi Waterproof Underwater Camera with 2.4G Remote Control 2 Batteries 2.0” LCD…

 For this price with easy use and high quality is amazing. I had a bad experience with a camera before so I was a little afraid of being dissappointed again I choose Amazon to buy it because I knew Amazon rocks when something happen to items. But no! This is great. It is light to carry, easy to use and very good case to carry. Thank you amazon and thank you manufacturer and seller. You made me happy.

This is my first action cam so I wasn’t sure what to expect. The cam feels solid, and recording at 4K the images look very good. The battery compartment isn’t easy to open. There’s no anti shake feature in it, but as I said this is my first action cam so I don’t know how much I really need it. The menus are pretty straight forward. Video is sharp in 4K mode.
The mounts are very tight, some of them you have to really push them in together. There is just the very few to get you going, I will get a kit of more mounts.
The Live DV app – it took me a while to get it working. When I tried to connect the camera it kept sending me back to network connections. After going through this cycle a bunch of times, I happen to get a popup about this network connection has no Internet access, do you want to stay connected? I answered Yes and after that the app worked.
Over all, I’m satisfied. Especially at the price to get started.

I wanted to buy a waterproof camera to take on a snorkeling trip later this year without having to spend what I’d have to for a GoPro brand. Got everything set up fairly easily with formatting the micro SD card (not included & purchased separately) and charging the batteries (also not included is the plug that you need to plug the USB into an electrical outlet, but I have an abundance of those lying around). I took video with the camera dunked under water in my bathroom sink, and the waterproof case works great. I’m not impressed with the audio recording volume. It’s turned all the way up, and still the sound is minimal when playing the video back, even when I plugged the SD card into my laptop, and I had also tested it by taking some video with the camera out of the waterproof case. The picture quality seems okay, but it seems a LOT of light is needed to capture any sort of good color. I hate to say, but my Galaxy S8 takes better pics & video in low light conditions. Perhaps there’s a setting I don’t have configured right? Not sure. Also, there are a TON of accessories included, but not being camera savvy, I have not a clue what to do with most of them. Will have to seek help from my photography friends on those because the enclosed instruction manual was very little help. I tried to find one online also, but didn’t have a whole lot of success with that either. Overall, I’d say if you just want some video–especially underwater–without the high cost of a GoPro, then this little camera will probably do what you need it to for the low price. If I can remember to, I’ll update after my trip.

Bought this only because we were going to Hawaii and would be snorkelling and wanted a way to catch the experience without breaking the bank. Figured for $60, what do I have to lose.

Kit came packaged in a nice case, with a ton of accessories, most of which I did not have a use for, so I just kept the one’s that seemed most useful and put the rest aside. Came with 2 batteries and a charger. Charge per battery lasts between 1 and 2 hours on video mode, I would guess. Hard to be accurate because I wasn’t videoing continually.

Now as to quality. Photo quality is just OK. It won’t compete with a high-end smart phone, nor a good compact camera, but if you are just looking to capture memories and not win a photo contest, they will do just fine. I didn’t take many photos with it, since I had a phone and a compact camera, mostly took video. As you can see from the photo included, shot in low-light conditions, it did OK, but you will find some fish-eye effect with photos due to the wide-angle lens. It may be possible to correct that with software. What I was really impressed with were the underwater videos. The resolution was excellent and colors vivid. I’ve attached a screen capture from an underwater video. The colors and detail look way better when cast to my TV than they do on the computer screen. In any event, the waterproof housing did it’s job, though I did find some condensation inside after the second dive of the day, but that could easily have been from drops of water falling into the case while changing battery or sim card. In any event it did not affect operation of camera and it still works fine.

The only caveat I have is to read the manual prior to use. I didn’t, and didn’t realize that the wrist controller is NOT waterproof, just splashproof. Needless to say after diving with it on, it was kaput. My fault, not the device! Also, I had my camera attached to a mount on my snorkel, but I could also have attached it to a headband. Problem with that setup is that you don’t really know where the camera is aimed. Next time, I will just get a selfie stick that is waterproof and mount the camera to it and hold it in front of me so I can be sure it is aimed at what I want it to be aimed at. In conclusion, I highly recommend this camera as a cheap alternative to a Go-Pro. Certainly not comparable I’m sure, but then again, neither is the price.

This is the second action camera i have had to return in the past 2 weeks, as this is nothing close to how it is even described. “4K Ultra HD”… yet even 1080p mode looks like it’s software upscaled from a much lower resolution. I’m just about sick of these products flooding listings and claiming they are capable of certain features, yet it’s all made up as a selling point. There is literally no way this camera can claim to be 4K/1080p capable whatsoever.

A few years back i had an action camera made by ViTin which cost me around £30, and that had true 1080p@60fps, at half the costs, and it actually performed with the resolution/specs as was advertised with this other product. The quality from that camera superseeds whatever Apexcam are trying to claim as 4K or 1080p by a thousand fold.

Using this Apexcam on the roads is useless, as it cannot even pickup a number plate on a car when you’re 3-5 meters behind it. Also, even in the acclaimed “1080p@60fps”mode, everything becomes so blurry even at walking speeds. I’ve attached 3 still frames from the 1080p@60fps mode to this review. Virtually the entire video i recorded is like that.

I would not recommend this camera at all, especially given the price. It does not record in 4K nor 1080p.

This is a great alternative to the go-pro. Battery life is long lasting and provides good picture quality.
The attachments are a little bit tricky to figure out. I had to google and youtube those.
KEY TIP: do not apply the adhesive stickers on anything that you want to remove it from.
