Please note that my review is for the earlier version (non-touch screen without WiFi). We stumbled on to the Akaso V50 while researching a good action cam for our recording kids sports, hikes etc. I didn't think this could beat the GoPro series but couldn't be more wrong. This is just AWESOME! The quality of the pictures and video is just amazing. The number of accessories that come with it is insane! The few improvements that I would wish for in that model is for a non-widescreen option and an option to allow time-stamps. Besides these, this camera is a no-brainer. Just get it!

Everything working well so far. Both sound and image quality is actually better than I expected.

Been using this for a couple of months now and compared to the GoPro 5 Black it is a great device for the price.

Context:I want to do some ultra hikes this summer and was reading a blog who attached a GoPro to their backpack using time interval photos.That sounded like a great idea but the GoPro was way too pricey and the lower tier models you can’t change the batteries. That led me around the reviews and blogs for action cameras.I had picked up the CamPark x90 first but returned it. I settled on the Akaso V50 Pro. It’s got a lot for the money. I paired it with one of those Chinese adapter bundles for the backpack clip.The camera itself is tiny, 2 button function with a waterproof case, 2 batteries, and several adapters. I wish the battery power lasted just a tad longer.Over the last month and half I’ve used it on 3 test hikes all about 10 miles each, 2 dives, 1 beach day and 1 fun hike in a tropical location. I read reviews to change the angle from super wide to wide but found for my particular situation super wide looks best when I get a clean shot.The results are mixed. Because I’m moving 2-3mph the photos are easily blurred. I set up time interval shots every 3 or 10 seconds. 3 is just way too many and drains the battery in the area of 1.5hr. I could see moving to 10-15s next hike. I found the photos blur with medium light and movement easily. If there is a scene you want, stopping to get the photo will work best. Easier than removing my mirrorless camera every time. First 3 hikes I took between 1200-1800 and kept maybe 30 each. Scenery wasn’t the most picturesque, mostly woodlands in the Shenandoah NP.The photo interval in a tropical area was concerning. Moisture quickly filled the inside of the waterproof case so I don’t know how well it really is sealed for long term diving. Both micro sd cards and the camera itself were dry. I recall a small drop of water on the case when cleaning it back at the dive shop.There is probably some genuine risk as other reviewers have noticed that the case is not the best for diving and over time will leak. Maybe shallower dives around 10-15m would be better. With that said, the red filter made the quality of the video under water pretty awesome. My dive instructor and I both took videos, his is much more smoother to watch and I’m happy with the results.The beach day photos came out great and we used it in the water as well, shoulder depth. The moisture had cleared by the time we got there.Can’t remember if it was any where in the user manual. After water activities, rinse in cold water and let device/case air dry if you can as a precautionOverall, I’d say it’s 3.5-4 star for the price and product. If it continues to work as such with no defects and survives 2-3 dives a year I’d say an even 4. The GoPro really wasn’t an option. Have another hike in VT late spring and hope it will work as planned. If it can’t, may have to reconsider but the battery life and image stabilization could still be a problem.

This camera offers you a lot of options to change the way the picture looks and other settings too! It also comes with replacement attachments for the waterproof case, many others like sticky attachments to go on to something and it can hold over 10 pounds. It comes with a clamp style attachment and many more! There is nothing else to ask for.

Below are the review points for AKASO V50 Pro.Best Part:1) Image stabilization is good as compared to price and other products which are high in range.2) Video resolution 4K recording @30fps gives best quality. Even it comes with Time lapse with interval mechanism. That's also good.3) Waterproof is 100% as it said. No leakage in the case. We shoot underwater for 10 minutes and its clarity is awesome.Overall, as I said earlier, Its pocket friendly for beginner in photography. So its good to buy.

This is my first action camera so I can not speak to how it compares with others. I researched a lot on youtube before deciding on this one because of all the features, accesories and the price. I have it mounted on front of my motorcycle helmet for dual sport riding. I have only used the 1080P 60fps so far, but have been impressed with the footage this camera has recorded. The EIS seems to work very well. I love the watch style remote that comes with this so I don't have to take it off my helmet to start/stop video recording or taking a quick picture. One word of caution would be when deleting a file as soon as you confirm yes it automatically brings up the next file. If you don't pay attention you can accidentally delete the next file thinking that you are still trying to delete the first file. Fortunately a friend of mine was able to use a recovery program and get my video back. I really like that it came with 2 batteries, a charging block that will charge them both at the same time and a cord. You do have to use a wall charging block from a cell charger or something similar with a usb in order to charge the batteries. The touch screen works well and I have had no trouble navigating the menu and changing settings. I am looking forward to trying out the time lapse function soon. Over all I like this camera a lot! As long as it holds up I will continue to be very happy with my purchase.

Video quality is great,it comes with a lot of accessories for mounting options. The battery dies after about 30-45 minutes of filming, so the extra battery is nice if you're using it for an extended period.
