I have now switched to the GoPro Hero 7 Black....My SJCAM SJ8 Pro broke within a couple of months of using it (shut off and wouldn't turn on at all). SJCAM told me to contact the seller which I did who offered to send me a new one...it never arrived. They supposedly sent a second (from Malaysia again) it never arrived again. Then the seller said they would refund me...never happened despite repeated promises. I contacted SJCAM to tell them I wanted to get a replacement and sent them video of the malfunction (like I did to the seller). They erased my help ticket like it never existed...I haven't heard back from them...I'm done with SJCAM...which is sad because I like the SJ7 STAR for cockpit audio when I fly. The only problem I've had with the two SJ7 STAR cameras is that the micro usb port has broken off in both cameras (I superglued a micro usb to usb cable on the second one before it totally broke off so I could keep using it in the plane while charging it at the same time with a USB power supply). The first SJ7 would not record sound after the micro usb port broke (while using the plug in official SJCAM microphone. The GoPro Hero 7 surpasses everything...that's all I'm saying..the only problem is that it's never going to be as cheap as SJCAM. I did all of my video reviewing with the SJ7 and SJ8 but they will be retired soon with GoPro cameras. The hypersmooth technology is what sold me and it is great. I do not have room in the plane to have a gyro. UPDATE: The second help desk ticket was taken down without answer as well...DO NOT BUY SJCAM....or should we leave the J silent and call it SCAM?
i got one of those and when i send the videos to my laptop or smartphone the videos doesnt work good, the sound works but video not.. i only can reproduce videos in 1080 25fps and 1080 30 fps. i bought also a expensive sdcard (sandisk extreme pro micro sd) and still doesnt work... Someone can help me in it? Thanks a lot
Please do not guide yourself after watching socalled "reviews" from amateurs!!!! The SJCAM SJ8 PRO gets bought mostly because of one feature and one feature only: The possibility to record in 4K@60fps. However, there is a huge issue with the audio when recording in this format. 6+ minutes of talking and talking and this amateur reviewer has not even noticed this basic issue!!!!
Go for the gopro hero 7 if you have the budget for it. The quality is far more superior. Plus you don't need a separate underwater case as the device itself is waterproof.
Well after a year with this camera I have to say that it has been a horrible experience. Had the sj7 star pro as well before and was hoping for less problems but OMG!!!! Simply put one is not better than the other. They are both buggy as hell and completely unreliable. WAY TOO EXSPENSIVE for this terrible quality. I lost my patience and ended up smashing the camera to pieces. What a complete waist of money! Gopro and sjcam are udder garbage.

Do you need a seperate charger for this? or you can use a usb type charger directly to the camera?
Hi, would like to ask if what sj8 series can be used as webcam?
Daming issue nito, SJ6 is still the most reliable SJcam still. SJ7 and SJ8 are freezing and overheating
How about underwater? Or did i missed it?
SJ8 Pro or SJ7 Star? My camera is not working anymore and need quickly replacement.
Did you experience any freezing issues?
0.05 what's is the rotating item name please?
sj8 pro uses a single lense with a zoom.sj7 star has no zoom but multiple lenses options.isn't that right?
Why is my gyro stabilizer is not working 😔
What about stabilisation?
Which is better? This or GoPro?
How to navigate touchscreen when inside the waterproof case?
by using the buttons only.

Jam ancheta or biboy?
How much is that in $ ?
Can you record while recording?
Now im torn between gopro7 and sj8 pro. The huge price difference plus the freebies included on sjcam i quite enticing!!

Just switch to a DJI osmo action. SOBRANG GANDA kesa sa GoPro Hero 7 Black.
*How much yon?*
Bakit ang mahal sa u sa iba po 8.5k lng bnew
Oo nga e 8k lang sa iba
Kamusta po video mga nakagamit ng sj8
Wala pa ding review ng Vivo Y85 -.-
Wait? Si biboy ba yung nag sasalita?
nice one kulang lang sa test ng pagiging "action camera"
I tested it bro ua-cam.com/video/hODNGNkdj98/v-deo.html
