Review on AKASO Brave 4 4K WiFi Action Camera with EIS, Waterproof, Remote Control, 5X Zoom | Ultimate Ultra HD Outdoor Camcorder by Paarvin Freedman

Incredible value for money. Excellent video quality, acceptable photos, fully waterproof, good menu, lots of accessories.** Revain compressed the video. It looks amazing on my computer **Why did I choose Akaso Brave?1. Akaso has the best website (and hopefully support/guarantee) of any action cam I've seen at Revain.2. The Olympus Tough TG-5 (great camera) didn't fit my budget.3. GoPro Hero was out of my budget.4. Most waterproof cameras under $400 are mixed with bad reviews that indicate a leak. This camera is now with me and my wife in Hawaii celebrating our 10 year anniversary! Adventures in bamboo forests. Wireless was relatively easy, allowing me to easily transfer photos and videos to my iPhone. Here are some additional things I bought: 1. Feed the Microjib. floating retractable handle. Worth every penny. The best I could find. https://www.amazon.com/Flow-MicroJib-Waterproof-Extendable-Floating/dp/B01MXHWWUA2. Shoot a waterproof dive light (works great, I didn't dive more than 5ft underwater)3. Samsung EVO 32GB microSD4. Tekcam waterproof cover (optional, just in case, not tested yet)5. Extra batteries (each of the two original batteries gave me about 40 minutes of good use so I didn't test the new batteries). go) in two large socks. What do I not like about this camera? 1. No lens protection :( so beware, keep the plastic waterproof case in your sock! 2. No option to buy additional cases from the manufacturer (need to buy 3rd party). 3. Remote control is not waterproof/submersible, no way to buy a Buy replacements 4. Not exactly the same quality as a GoPro or Olympus TG-5 (but close for most people and a lot less) 5. Photos: Almost the same quality as an iPhone or Samsung Android but still acceptable 6. Less support, no user manual, etc. Here are some tips (for most people): 1. See my attached photo for instructions on how to insert a microSD 2. The screen turns off to save battery (eg diving) 3. In video recording mode, press down arrow key to turn on or off the microphone.high quality videos.choice.5.In the menu are 5M or 8M for pictures/photos for most people appropriate (higher values increase memory size and print size).6. Switch off continuous recording, date stamp, motion detection and signal tone in the t menu. (for most people)7. Set the menu to Auto Off for 10 minutes (for snorkeling/adventure).8. Set the quality to good in the menu.9. Play around with Angle in the menu. Larger angles may be more attractive for edging objects, but large angles are great for diving.10. Yes, you CAN remove the photo/video from the on-screen preview. While holding the up arrow, press Enter at the top; You will be prompted to delete. In general I am very satisfied. Incredible value, easy to use. Great videos and acceptable photos. Lots of features and accessories. This review is sincere. If the Actioncam disappoints in the future, I will update my rating.
