This is an awesome product, I use this for my cycling vlogs where I mount this on my cycling helmet, travel to serene places including hills, lakesides, beaches, villages, etc in Kerala and record videos and present my experience as vlogs.. It works wonders for me.. I try 1080*60 fps..
To answer some questions: 1. You Can only charge it through the camera itself 2. Use a SanDisk microSDHC Ultra CL10 A1 Card (for action camera) any size. 3. No. You can not zoom in and out. 4. The remote in NOT waterproof! 5. You can not use a external Mic in this camera. There are 2 things that can throw people off. 1. The mic is not all that great, especially when it's in its waterproof case. 2. It does not have any camera stabilization, so when you use it in a very shacky manner the shots will be jumpy! Other than that. A very good Action Camera for the price.
This cam is *chefs kiss*. I'm already regretting my SJ4000 Air purchase. This camera is clearly ahead when it comes to budget cameras. And kudos to you, sir reviewer, for pointing it's different aspects perfectly.
Thank you, I got this camera out of a dusty drawer after to not using it for like 2 years. I’m going to a theme park and water park soon so I wanna record it.
I got one a few years ago. It's good, but not as sharp as a GoPro. Much of the higher cost of the latter goes into better coated glass lenses that produce sharper video. But it does the job fine enough for me.
I have had mine for awhile, I just don't get it. This really helped. I must have the first one. Stability is horrible for MTB riding. Tried my helmet as well as a chest attachment. The screen saver or auto off turns on and I have no access to it. Pushing any button does noting unless I push and hold the power. Good thing it keeps recording but in 10 minute increments. Great for the price.
Good job. You were wrong though. A review for an action camera can only be completed with an AUDIO review as well. You didn't have any audio. A lot of people that use action cameras need audio too. I'm guess that it's sucks on this model. Thanks for creating this.
Question, if the battery is full, what color should the light be? Also, the camera won't turn on for me unless its being charged, I also don't have a microSD in it yet. Is it not turning on because of the missing microSD?
I have two Eken H9's (not H9R). After using one of them for a year I liked it well enough I bought a second one. Of course it's not as good as a GoPro, but for $50 USD I'm more willing to use it in places it could get damaged or lost than I would a camera that cost 8x the price. The only time I've had a problem is when using the Wifi to a cell phone both the Android app and camera will lock up, the only way I've found to get the camera working again is to remove and replace the battery. But for the price I've been happy enough that I've bought several and given them to friends as gifts.
i hope you did not :P they are fake, they ship review copies to people that is not EKEN H9R HDR 4K but some really expensive stuff, perhaps even go pro parts, they get great reviews and the masses buy the EKEN H9R HDR 4K which turns out to be pure trash....my iphone 3gs which is like 10 or more years old have better video quality. check my videos on EKEN H9R HDR 4K and you see what normal people get who are not reviewers :P
I want to put that camera to my head and record video from there,do I need to buy something else or just the camera has all accessories in the package? Im a bit noob with cameras...
I have the EKEN H9R 4K actioncam. When I put my SD card in mij computer of works fine. I have image and sound. But when I use the app and download the videos on my phone I have no sound, can't send the videos on WhatsApp and when I try to upload on it on Social Media there is no sound. Last but not least: When I use the app and download the videos on my phone, I sometimes says I have no more SD storage. But the video was 300MB and my SD card still had 63GB storage. How can I fix this?
Thanks for the review of this Action Camera. The camera works well in some feature, but I also found some feature does not work in the way users want. When you mount to the helmet for riding with you motorcycle, the video was so vibrates, the need to be improve by a factory. Thanks
Hello. Can an external microphone be connected to the camera and is the sound good? Because I want to make a video blog and I'm looking for a budget option. Congratulations on the nice review
Does it REALLY have 4K or is it just something you set but the sensor is really much lower 1080p native? do you have the same subject while you change the resolution settings to compare the video?
HELP !!!! HELP!!!! is there any place to buy it in Pakistan for cheapest price and cash on delivery bcz my parents don't trust buying from credit cards... they think site gonna stole their money 💰
Banggood.com. Its Pakistan's best friend and so called iron brother's site. A chinese website. Buy it from there. It delivers things in India in few days. Mine was delivered in 1 day. I think in your case it will take few hours since china is best friend of Pakistan.
I suspecting that too now. When I asked eken what was actually the difference between H9 and H9R, they said H9R is more stable. But honestly, I found no difference except the remote and the mount screw designs.
Sir does this eken h9r camera support 64 gb memory card or 128 gb card? I have this camera but I want to buy maximum memory card for it. I have read that formatting the 64 gb card through FAT32 by laptop works fine on this action camera. But the camera label says maximum memory it supports is 32 gb. Can you please help resolve this dilemma?
The camera allows only to record in 10min videos to allow you easier edit, exacly if you want to record the 30min video the camera will record it as 3 x 10min parts
Wings of Oil [The Short Ride ] Hi, I recorded my Thailand travel video with Eken H9R. The video is uploaded on my channel. You can take a look at the quality of the video and judge accordingly. I didn't have a gimbal or any such gadgets to stabilize the video, you might notice some unstable footage during movement. I personally am very happy with its performance, but I let you decide as it's preference and choice after all. :)
Hello. I was wondering how much footage can i record while using a 64GB card. I am mostly intrested in time lapses; i want it to have at least 24 hours of footage i can record in 4K. What do you think? By the way, thanks for the review, it was amazing and very informative. Keep it up.
Brother in my camera the video is getting recorded in one minute span.! Means after one minute a new video starts by itself..! Whats the problem? Could you please help me with this ?
This is an awesome product, I use this for my cycling vlogs where I mount this on my cycling helmet, travel to serene places including hills, lakesides, beaches, villages, etc in Kerala and record videos and present my experience as vlogs.. It works wonders for me.. I try 1080*60 fps..
It has terrible stabilization. How is it good for cycling videos?
Kcyclopedia - Kerala's Cycling Encyclopedia how long for its battery can stand during operation?
u do?? I want this camera for Enduro vlogs
To answer some questions:
1. You Can only charge it through the camera itself
2. Use a SanDisk microSDHC Ultra CL10 A1 Card (for action camera) any size.
3. No. You can not zoom in and out.
4. The remote in NOT waterproof!
5. You can not use a external Mic in this camera.
There are 2 things that can throw people off.

2. It does not have any camera stabilization, so when you use it in a very shacky manner the shots will be jumpy!
Other than that. A very good Action Camera for the price.
I have an H9R and it came with a dual battery charger so I don't charge them in the camera.Purchased from EKEN themselves.
Can you tell some points about SJCam 7 star please ?
Gearbest says the H9R has EIS so there should be an anti-shake stabilization.
Thanks for commenting. I’m looking for action camera. Why do they call or action camera without stabilization.
I have a dual battery charger as well.
This cam is *chefs kiss*. I'm already regretting my SJ4000 Air purchase. This camera is clearly ahead when it comes to budget cameras. And kudos to you, sir reviewer, for pointing it's different aspects perfectly.
6:40 wow
Thanks so much for making this video because I’m trying to find videos to help me narrow it down for an action camera

Thank you, I got this camera out of a dusty drawer after to not using it for like 2 years. I’m going to a theme park and water park soon so I wanna record it.
Plz can you give me
@@prashantbelure449 HAHAHAHAHA yeah no.
Is it good? I bought a full face snorkel mask (back in summer 2021) and it has a camera mount. I'm thinking about buying the h9r though
Excellent and very detailed review!!
I've watched this video several times in the past year or so and finally broke down and bought one, thanks for the review.
How is it the camera?
Thank you for sharing your review. Connecting it to the mobile was much easier that I though, which makes life a lot better.

External mic is better.
@W4R_ Velocityy the sound is muffled because it is in the waterproof case. without it the sound should be better.
The best review!
Its seriously a nice product i am using it and its clarity is outstanding, its a totally on budget action camera

I have this camera and this camera is so good

Wow great. Thanks for sharing 😀 I'm gonna buy a camera soon
Great review! Will consider getting one. Cheers! :)

Belnick6666 ah I didn’t get one in the end! I bought a DJI Osmo Pocket and am loving it! :)

nice review brother
the best review man , thank U so much
I like your review dude keep it up
Nice & Honest Review
Sir can we click photos or videos without remote
ADARSH tech yes we can. I recorded my Thailand travel video with the help of the camera as well as the remote. It works perfectly fine.
Not gonna lie it’s almost as good as the GoPro hero 5
Thank you for this video tips and information.
Very good man much support from tunisia ❤🇹🇳
Is it safe for tourists.
@@Shup_bowl_ of course bro and its beautiful too
What a full review👏🏻👌🏻
Wow that is GoPro level quality
Does it support external microphone for helmet mounting?
No it does'nt
Nice thanks for the video
The EKEN is a 4yr. old cam! Any other recommendations in this price range?
Idk how much this one costs but i bought 2 "yi 4K" action cams and they are pretty damn good.
Look okay when camera not moving. But it will look terrible when move, pan, zoom, stuttery, from a 4k 30fps of course
.
Nice review, way to go
Can you turn off video recording from remote?
I want to put that camera to my head and record video from there,do I need to buy something else or just the camera has all accessories in the package? Im a bit noob with cameras...
I think it comes with accessories like mountings for helmet.
I have the EKEN H9R 4K actioncam.
When I put my SD card in mij computer of works fine. I have image and sound. But when I use the app and download the videos on my phone I have no sound, can't send the videos on WhatsApp and when I try to upload on it on Social Media there is no sound.
Last but not least: When I use the app and download the videos on my phone, I sometimes says I have no more SD storage. But the video was 300MB and my SD card still had 63GB storage.
How can I fix this?
Can we shot vedio directly from the mobile after connecting with eken via app?
Is the front of the camera supposed to feel sticky? Thanks
Hey ive got an question. Can the thing that you attach to a bike handlebar be tightened. If you can answer this i will buy it. Plz answer.
Yes you can. It has sort of a rubber on the inside of the loop that goes in contact with the handle. You can tighten the screw so it hold on sturdy.
@@MiiBooth Thanks alot man! Now i can finally become a bike youtuber!😀
Is this 4k mode really 4k? Any file size difference between 1080p?
Excellent review. Very detailed. I sub to your channel
Thanks for the review of this Action Camera. The camera works well in some feature, but I also found some feature does not work in the way users want. When you mount to the helmet for riding with you motorcycle, the video was so vibrates, the need to be improve by a factory. Thanks
Hello. Can an external microphone be connected to the camera and is the sound good? Because I want to make a video blog and I'm looking for a budget option. Congratulations on the nice review
Hi what's the microphone like on it when not in casing as some cheaper ones the sound is very poor, thanks.
Rubik's cube , act cam ...... I am lover of these two things.
you got my attention pal thanks a lot! 👍🤜🤛

Does it REALLY have 4K or is it just something you set but the sensor is really much lower 1080p native? do you have the same subject while you change the resolution settings to compare the video?
Can any one tell which is the better choice eken h9r or Y2 2k 😊
Thank you for your video. Kindly help on how to adjust brightness on this camera. I can't find the right settings. Thank you.
Very nice reviev. Dzięki serdeczne, spokojna i rzetelna recenzja. 👍

@@MrSatnam2050 lol, are u helping him or pulling his leg 😂😂
Looks interesting,but its still wide angle
does no one make a standard 4:3/full screen/non wide angle camera anymore ?
Beautiful camera it seems
how did you render your video sir.? my video when i play full screen the player it becomes blur.
Very very good rewiew, I have a H9R and it has worked fine so far,.. Peace! ;)
Hey, now still working?
Does any defect like recording only short laps
Does it have stability
Excellent review, thank you
What is the best sd card for h9r action camera??
Thanks if you replied it.
The faster the better but atleast an class 10. No lesser.
Which is good?
Which one is better, H9R or H6S?
Does it record with sound? Does it got a mic inside?
Yes
lucca1302 okey good i just ordered it, SUBSCRIBE to my channel to see some dope videos recorded by Eken :)
nice review, what is its weight?
Which one is better..Xiaomi YI or Eken H9r ????
Question. Can the eken be used in the normal go pro waterproof cases?
Did the camera support 64Gb class 10 Samsung sd card?
Thank you for this review. It was a great help! BIG like!
Whch Sd card to b used
How much far will It stay WiFi connected to the phone ?

.
.
.
Did you fix video stop recording issue?
Nice review! 👍
I love it
Actually I am thinking to buy this cam
And it's look good I think, I want to use this cam on my drone what do you think?
Aren't H9 and H9R supposed to be the same camera with the same box and H9R only has a remote included? I think your H9 might be fake as you said.
I suspecting that too now. When I asked eken what was actually the difference between H9 and H9R, they said H9R is more stable. But honestly, I found no difference except the remote and the mount screw designs.
Nice vide buddy. I bought this today nice one. :)
Nice Work
This camera also has motion detection
or not
For example, if a bird lands in front of the camera and the camera will take a picture
hello MIIbooth
can you tell me recording time , i heard battery life not good ,can tell me honestly please
Which memory card are you using
Thank you for your True Review.
Does this cam has feature to connect the external mic
Sir does this eken h9r camera support 64 gb memory card or 128 gb card? I have this camera but I want to buy maximum memory card for it. I have read that formatting the 64 gb card through FAT32 by laptop works fine on this action camera. But the camera label says maximum memory it supports is 32 gb. Can you please help resolve this dilemma?
What's about the sounds system? Is it any sound capturing way ?
automatic start recording in the car ?
i use eken h9r to my drone, it crashes several times and still working, now i did use it for webcam gaming streaming all good
How do I get the record to go for more than about 40 seconds before shutting off on my H9? Thanks
One question, why can't I record more than 10 minutes at once?
Thank you.
Maybe you need higher gb memory,especially if you have 16gb memory card
The camera allows only to record in 10min videos to allow you easier edit, exacly if you want to record the 30min video the camera will record it as 3 x 10min parts
Hi may I know how is the audio for this video camera?
Thanks!
How is it's stabilization while recording ??
And will it be good for motovlog ?
No, It does not have that feature, its called EIS .
Doesn't matter with the stabilization as long we using Osmo mobile 2 nothing to worry. This action cam damn cheaper and awesome quality
Yeah, Electronic Image Stabilizatio

By the way, thanks for the review, it was amazing and very informative. Keep it up.
I believe at 4k with a 64 gb card you can record about 90-100 hours
I hour of footage will take up around 24 GB seeing as 1 minute of footage is 400 MB
Brother in my camera the video is getting recorded in one minute span.! Means after one minute a new video starts by itself..! Whats the problem? Could you please help me with this ?
How will i know if it is Plus10 memory card?
I just ordered one on Amazon. I decided to bc of this review!
Very good review..much better than Noise, Sjcam, and Mgcool
Can you change the FOV.....I hate fisheye look.....little camera take good video.......is this straight from the camera or did u color grade it
Best Review
How about the sound?
