Review on πŸ“· COOAU Dual Screen Ultra HD 4K 60FPS 20MP WiFi EIS Touchscreen Sports Action Camera with External Microphone, Remote Control, Waterproof Up to 131 Feet, Helmet Vlogging Camera, 2x1350mAh Batteries by Adam Tidd

Sound quality needs improvement and other issues

The COOAU CU SPC01 is what I would consider a decent camera for the price. (Software Version 20210107-9307ips) Main Pros: Dual screen is a must for me. The 6-axis image stabilization only works in 4k and 1080p (I think). The dual status indicator on the front screen is great for stop/start recording. 1/4-20 comments offer more setup flexibility as not requiring a separate cage with 1350 MhAU is a plus. I get about 45 minutes of continuous standby plus battery life. Disadvantages: I use the camera without an underwater protective housing. I'm still investigating this issue, but the sound quality is very poor with and without the microphone. I can't tell any difference. I have an APEMAN-A79 that works very well with an external microphone. It doesn't have a wind noise filter. There is no indication that an external microphone is working or selected. I use this camera with my e-assist bike. There appears to be radio interference with the motorcycle's engine. I'm still investigating. this is done with the internal and external microphone. No zoom or field of view adjustment
