Screen broken right out of the box
I'm using this camera for action shots while racing my sailboat. The picture quality is great and the remote is convenient for this application. There are more expensive cameras but none of this quality at this price. I'll probably buy another one!

Buonissimo microfono, ma attenzione. IL PREZZO ING
Microfono buonissimo, pagato in sconto a 92€ e per il prezzo è stupendo. MA bisogna fare attenzione che serve ulteriore attrezzatura per utilizzare il Microfono. Io l'ho associato ad un amplificatore Samson S-Monitor da 70€ + un cavo XRL preso qui su Amazon tra i consigliati (cavo XRL non incluso con il microfono). Associando questa attrezzatura il microfono non rende molto bene, dovrebbe essere associato oltre a questi anche un Cloudlifter 1 Channel Microphone Activator (Costo 170€). Altrimenti persiste un rumore di fondo molto invadente, oppure consiglio di associarlo ad un Go XRL. Ho dovuto fare il reso a malincuore per il costo troppo alto della attrezzatura da associare, ma decisamente un buonissimo microfono rispetto al costo. Consigliato pere chi può permettersi oltre al microfono tutto il resto per farlo funzionare.

Exceptionally well-designed Mic Boom Arm at a trem
This Mic Boom Arm was a BIG surprise! I was certainly not expecting the quality, construction, and performance that this Arm provides at the exceptional value price it is sold for on Amazon! Really!I Live Stream, create Podcasts, and produce videos in a large home studio, and microphone placement is critical for my use. I have gone through, tested, and reviewed a number of Mic Boom Arms at all price levels, and I will say that this one has absolutely blown me away! Simply a highly functional, superb design and perfect operation. Total surprise!For reference, I have thoroughly tested this arm with multiple microphones of differing weights and sizes, including Shotguns, Dynamic, and large condensers including a King Bee II, Rode NTK in a shock mount, Blue Yeti, and a Neumann M49. All were handled by the Boom Arm without issue and only needed some minimal adjustments for positioning, based on either light or heavyweight microphones. Articulation is simple and easy, and the Arm holds its position without snap-back or drooping when properly adjusted.MANY POSITIVES:

Not good for Mountain biking camera, unless you us
Overall good for the money. Video is clear. Used it at 1080 60fps. Touch screen and settings are easy to use. Comes with some good accessories and 2 batteries. The reason for 4 stars is first, the video stabilization doesn't work very well. I have the settings for stabilization On, I use this on a chest mount for Mountain biking and the footage is basically unusable. Bouncing and shaking all over. Head/helmet mount is a little better. I wasn't expecting it to be gopro 7 or 8 quality at this price, but it seems the stabilization is basically nonexistent. Second the ultrawide angle doesn't seem to be very wide. I don't see in the settings specifically what the angle is, I think it must be only around 130 degrees, not 170, not sure, but it should be wider. You Will need a gimbal to get any usable footage for Mountain biking. Probably be a good "action camera" for a more mellow action. i will keep and buy a gimbal and see how that looks. Otherwise it will be a backup camera for less bumpy adventures. Microphone work pretty good too. Not alot of wind noise.

Audio is just FINE!
I recently bought this action camera and I love it. I was weary at first because of all the negative comments about the audio. I must say, after playing around with the camera for a few days, the audio is just fine! The microphone can pick up a lot of wind noise if you're traveling fast but I wouldn't want to use any of the audio in a situation like that anyway. However, other than that, the audio is certainly usable. It's not studio quality but this is an action camera! Given its size it does have certain limitations but none that would deter me from buying it. I'm new to "action" cameras and I considered purchasing a GoPro instead. But given the Polaroid Cube Plus (+) 's cheaper price point and excellent video quality, I don't regret my decision at all. Some reviewers have noted that the color saturation is a bit much but I rather like it; the videos look more "alive" and not washed out. For the price and the features, I'd definitely recommend giving this camera a try.

Great little starter mic
While I wasn’t expecting much from this affordable microphone, my gut said to give it a whirl. I’m so glad!We tried this mic out in a room with uncovered walls and lots of random background noise, recording podcast-style content. Shockingly, the resulting audio was clear, crisp, and easily processed to remove extraneous sounds from around our dwelling. The pop filter did its job just fine. Voices were full and clear.I’m a little dubious about the small bungie cords used to suspend the mic in its stand — how long will they hold up over time? I can’t tell. The stand’s legs are a little flimsy at the hinges, but they fold together into a useful, comfortable-to-hold handle in a pinch.I don’t know how long this mic will last, or how long its stand will hold out. That said, for someone dipping their toe into any kind of audio production wanting decent unidirectional results, you should absolutely consider starting here.

Amazing action camera!
The media could not be loaded.
I make fishing videos (JustBassingBy if you wanna check it out) and I recently got a GoPro to make the quality better. I haven't made any videos with it yet because of the inclimate weather. But it was a great investment and I've done a ton of tests checking out all the features on it. The video here is a time lapse of my cat and it's down in my basement where there isn't a ton of light but the camera quality and clarity is great in my opinion, Amazon might lower the quality of videos making it pixelated (thanks Amazon) which is unfortunate but it's great at it's set resolution. The microphone built into it isn't bad quality at all, and with the right software you could easily edit you audio to make it louder, quieter or take out background noise. The GoPro video format is compatible with my video editor Sony Vegas Pro 15 which was great. It's definitely worth the money and I can't wait to try it when I start getting out there.

Very nice Sound Machine!
I have just received the Sleep Sound Machine. I like its settings and the volume level can be adjusted from very low to very high. The Adaptive setting uses a built-in microphone to automatically change the volume level depending on the noise level in the room. I like all of the various "SoundStories". The 'Richness' setting has three settings and it adds more sounds or features like birds chirping, or seals, bells and foghorns, depending on your preference. They all come in randomly. There is also a 3.5mm stereo headphone jack and it can by plugged into a stereo system if you want to have it play through a larger system.. I like that it has the auto shutoff timer feature too. It is a nice looking unit and so far, I am very pleased. Will have to try all of the settings to see which ones I like best. A long time ago I tried a different brand from Hammacher Schlemmer and was very disappointed in it. It had a constant hiss in the speakers. I don't hear anything but the sounds in this unit.

Great Camera and Package. EKEN Customer Service Ou
This is a great camera, and I particularly chose this one for the accessories (remote and extra battery, etc.). It takes great video and is solidly constructed. I've run tests using 1080p and 4K on my motorcycle, and I can say they are both superb quality. The microphone does not pick up very well when in the waterproof case, but that is to be expected because...well, its a waterproof case. If I want clear sound I'll run it without the case. I will also add that EKEN customer service is OUTSTANDING! I left feedback after my purchase saying the camera is spot on, but the remote is not good at all. Shortly thereafter, EKEN contacted me directly, apologized, and offered to replace my remote straightaway. Well, I received the new remote today and it works like a charm! I am very happy with this purchase and recommend the camera to any would-be buyer. Of note, if you intend to mount this on a motorcycle or other vibrating platform, you'll want to rethink it. Helmet mount is the way to go.
