Solid review. I appreciate the attention to detail in showing things like the difficulty of getting the SD card in/out and the video/audio comparisons. I'm reviewing options for my first action camera purchase so I know very little about them. Your video definitely helps. Only suggestion would possibly be adding if transferring recorded content to a PC is user-friendly or another half or full minute spent discussing the included accessories or how you liked/disliked utilizing the remote that comes with it. Thanks and good luck with your channel.

Thanks I appreciate the well thought out comments! The file transfering is same as any action camera because you need to put the micro SD into a usb adapter. As for remotes I never used it in my go pro so I don't value it as high as someone else but thanks for the insight! Cheers.

Thank you. Brief and to the point. So appreciated. I've never had a GoPro so I'm thinking this model will be plenty good for my first experience with such a camera. What a savings, too. I really didn't notice much difference in your side by side video or audio, honestly.

Good review of the Akaso 4 4k action camera. I would have liked to see a couple of additional tests on the sound like talking, external mic, waterproof vs the windproof cover. As far as the SD chip insert. I used a corner of a credit card to get the chip to set. I've seen people use a plastic knife o get the SD chip to set. Also testing on different SD card versions would be nice, like Ultra A1 U-I vs a U-3. Video 4k vs 1080p 60fps.

Very well said... Keep it up

I got mine for for $62...I was shopping for webcams that can do 1080p at 60fps and they were all over $120. I bought this for that purpose to get it for half the cost AND it also functions as an action cam with an underwater case. I'm super happy with it.

Thx for the review. I’ve never owned a action camera. Thought I’d start with this one and work my way up down the road.

I like bouth this kind of action camera!

I've planned to buy AKASO BRAVE 4, then watch your video and I've bought used Gopro 3+ for a half-price than AKASO :) If you stop the video when AKASO is recording, you can see that the building has some writings, but when you stop the video when Gopro is recording, you can see what is written on the building :) Thank you!

Great review I'll buy this cam

would you recommend the Akaso for a webcam? I need a high quality camera for streaming darts, I saw this akaso has zoom (i have the ek7000 and actually love it, the S10 vids on my profile are with the Akaso EK7000)... I would not be using the Brave 4 for sound, nor would it be "action" it would be on a stationary tripod. Thanks~!

If you're only using it for video the Akaso would be great as a webcam. Since it's directly plugged in you don't need to worry about using the battery either. Cheers.

Thanks for the review, are the akaso can support external microphone?

I think the brave4 cannot use an external mic. Which is why it's more of a secondary camera for me. I still use my GoPro as my main action camera.

With my old model of gopro they do not for the case, the other attachment accessories is the same fitment. Like I can use the handlebar mount that came from the Akaso on my GoPro case, but I cannot put the Akaso camera into my GoPro waterproof case.

Does the GoPro have audio?

Where is the microphone? I want to put cotton wool over it to block out wind.

I have akaso brave 4 camera and i have some issues. For a reason, when i shoot a video, it lasts 7 seconds, it stops and it starts again for 7 seconds and so on. What is wrong? I have checked the settings but i have found nothing. I need to start shooting a video without stopping unless i do. Another thing is that when i turn the camera on, it starts shooting itself.

Hey man, if it was your ONLY action camera, I would defiantly buy a GoPro instead. If you plan to use it for vlogs or anything where you need to connect an external mic, go-pro 100 percent of the way as the Brave 4 doesn't allow for an external mic. I don't know too much about the other Akaso cameras, they have a newer version that you can connect an external mic. There's pros and cons about each.
