I think this was a great comparison video for what I intend an action camera to do. Thank you so much, Doug. I'm gonna buy the Akaso.
Very cool! Please use our affiliate link if you are going to buy it off of Amazon ;)
70% of the performance for 10%/15% of the price? Bargain.
That's a smart way to express that. Thanks.
And when not in 4k the lighting is miles BETTER! Just bought one!
Great info! I got an AKASO as a gift and now I think it fits my needs without spending all the money!
let us know what you think after you've used it for a while!
I watched this video about 2 months ago and I purchased it. I have been using it for my UA-cam videos the past 2 months and the only problem that I have noticed is the EIS. I film skiing with it and I definetly notice it shaking sometimes. That might lead to me buying a GoPro but it is definitely great for the price. Thanks for the review
I just watched a couple of your videos. you should add the location in the title and description so it will be searcheable and others can find it.
@@DOUGandNIKI Thanks for the advice
the walking footage looked really good. the stuff at speed on the cars seperated in quality more. but if your walking and vlogging this thing is great in comparison
Agreed. It's not as much of an "action" camera in the end. Super durable and great for underwater but not so great at spead.
Great review, thanks for helping us out here!!! 💪🏻👊
No problem 👍 Did you make a decision?
Thank you for the very informative and detailed review! My EK 7000 was just delivered today ( Memorial Day) and I am unboxing it as I am watching your video! Looking at your video using the EK 7000, the main feature that is missing is the EIS (electronic image stabilization) which is noticeable when you were walking and with your RC. I believe that this camera will work great on a tripod (stationary) or just limiting my arm movement while recording. I would have to use my wrist like a gimbal. I will gladly work with this camera for a while and then move up to the Bravo. Also, I just subscribed and I’m looking forward to your next video on the AKASO brand of cameras.
Thanks so much and welcome to the channel! Enjoy the camera and check back in to let us know how it is working for you!
I have to agree other then the EIS, this camera seems like a great deal. I am buying one to record my hiking trip and think the wrist action is going to have to be on its A game lol.
great review.
@@ravon1982 Thanks so much! Here is the affiliate link so you don't have to dig for it: amzn.to/3I9v2QY
very good review, the picture quality is almost the same but what changed a lot was the stabilisation.
agreed
Excellent video and very good information. Luved the "Like Amazon kind of quality stuff..." That comment is Gold!!! Can I use it sometime? Kind of sums up quality standards.
I just bought one with all the AKASO Outdoor Sports Action Camera Accessories for $3.99 at a value village store.
Sweet! That is so cool.
Wow
You’re awesome for making this video!
Thanks for saying that! Are you looking for one?
Great video bro.. getting an Akaso
Thanks! Are you looking for a new camera?
Nice one Doug.
Excellent presentation 👏
Glad you liked it!
Thanks I got one for 26 dollars at Target - fingers crossed
what are you planning on using it for?

Dollars for donuts it's it preforms great showing clear visuals in low light 😤⚡️
Agreed! I've always been a fan of the dollars for donuts phrase!
I ordered yesterday because i love to ride on bike. Tomorrow i will see the results, i can t wait!
Can't wait to hear how it goes!
@@DOUGandNIKI i ll let you know, sir!
@@semnalextrabii1994So how does it work?
Bike ride Review?
@@ronaldberua8751 Mountain bike, road bike, or tricycle?
Outstanding review 👏
Thanks so much!
Doug I am watching this video after I bought the Akaso. In your video, the Akaso was definitely shaking a lot more. Is the stability the big difference? I do not care much for 4K until the screens for it are more common. But the video stability is more of an obvious. What do you think? Thanks, awesome video!
what kind of content are you shooting?
@@DOUGandNIKI hi, I am starting to record some kayaking adventures. So there is movement while paddling etc. although not as drastic as running or cycling. Thanks
@@soihavetoplay I wouldn't do that without some level of image stableization. Also... don't sell the 4K short. Even if you can't get maximum use out of it in gives you a little insurance that your video won't look like crap 3, 5, 10 years from now.
@@DOUGandNIKI thanks for the engagement!! Yes, I got the Brave 7 LE. I think recent makes have included improvements. I’ll keep you posted how it goes on the water! Cheers!
Ty for video comparison. Really helps out. 😊
Glad it was helpful!
Great review! Thanks
Glad it was helpful!
Good video, thanks. Both Cameras are nice. It's just a matter you get what you pay for.😊
thanks for commenting and that's pretty true about everything, right?
Very helpful video, thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Mind turning the music down a bit so I can hear what you’re saying?
I can't do it retrocactivley but in the future I'll keep it a little lower.
Thank you for video, sir!
Your welcome. I'm glad it was helpful!
@@DOUGandNIKI You doing a great job, respect sir!
I wish the stab was a little better, but the audio is not good at all. Looking for something inexpensive with better audio than that.
What about something like a GoPro 9 Black?
Awesome vid. Will this take an external battery pack for extended recording. I want to record my boys baseball games. External mic?
Thanks for the kind comments. Uhm... I don't know on either! I would think external power wouldn't be an issue but I don't know about the mic and I certainly don't think you could use external power and external mic at the same time. You can always ask them if you really want to know.
thanks for sharing it, gratitude 🙏
Glad to hear it was helpful! What are you getting the camera for?
Hi, Great video, Is it possible to plug the camera in the car as a dash cam using a cable to keep it powered non-stop ? Thank you !
Interesting idea 💡. I've never tried it but obviously it will have a lot less functionality compared to a dash cam.
Never realized how good the GoPro was until I started watching alternatives
So True!
You can't really go cheap when it comes to cameras. If you do you always end up with what you paid for....something that just isn't that good....and will end up either in the drawer or the bin
I want to do youtube vlogs where i just walk around and show the environment without showing my face. Is this the right camera?
It's the right camera for a very low budget. If you could afford a GoPro, they are better but if not, this is a great option.
Excellent review 🎉
Thanks so much!
Hi Doug, how do you compare the Akaso EK7000 vs Akaso Brave 4? Which one would you recommend?
I believe...no real inside knowledge...but to me they seem like the same internals just packaged a little differently.
Thank you for this video. I made a couple videos on the AKASO and it’s so true, there is absolutely no stabilization at all 😂 I like it though because it feel *vintage* and the price was great lol. But I think I will have to mount it onto my helmet and see if that makes any difference… any other suggestions to improve the stability when mounted onto handlebars? Thank you!
Are you really looking for stabilized content or are you just experimenting?
I've just bought an AKASO EK7000 and I'm looking at uploading my ride footage to UA-cam. I use DaVinci Resolve for editing. What settings should I render at to get the best possible quality when uploading to UA-cam?
That's a loaded question! LOL I've never used DaVinci but I render all my videos in an H.265 Codec
Just discovered the Akaso, but there are a number of options, im not sure what is supoosed to be comprable to the GoPro; just different cameras at different prices, not sure where to begin
I'm a big fan of this Akaso but it is in no way comparable to a current GoPro. the only thing that comes close is the DJI action camera. These Akaso cameras are amazing for what they cost but they are not comparable to modern GoPros. What are you looking to do with it?
@@DOUGandNIKI I honestly don't have much info, just started looking into cameras so I'm not brand biased, whatever works. I'm looking for a great all action camera that can give me good quality videos when I'm riding a motorcycle or just vlogging on my vacation excursions, so image stabilization and good audio would be features I'd be looking for. It would also be great if it was waterproof and I could swim with it, as well
can you post yt videos on this it seems great for vlogs
is AKASO EK7000 4K Action good for diving sport (40 meters deep) ?
I'm not a diver so I can't speak to it directly but I think if you look down in the comments, someone said it was.
Thank you!
Glad it helped.
What is the maximum video length? I need to record a drum part that is at least 12 minutes long.
That's super easy! No issue at all.
I think the poor sound quality and the bad image stabilization will keep me away from that Akosa, unfortunately.
What else are you looking at?
@DOUG and NIKI At the moment, everything. The new Insta 360 looks amazing, but too expensive. I'm still exploring budget options. But image stabilization and at least passable audio are the two most important elements for my needs.
@@scoa Have you looked at the iZeeker? It might be that middle of the road you are looking for: ua-cam.com/video/_YVUkuzoQBk/v-deo.html
i make 16 dollars a month on yt i have 44 in my adsense wich i calculated it would take 3 to 4 months left if i keep getting 16 a month once i reach a threshold of 100 im guna with drawn and buy the akaso or u think i should wait a long time for the go pro
I think you should buy the Akaso, use it to make some great new content, then you don't need to wait long to get the GoPro
kk@@DOUGandNIKI
Doesn’t look like the ek7000 doesn’t have video stabilisation. Which renders it pointless for action shots.
hmmm... don't toally agree with that but as your only camera and a go to camera it's an issue.
The pro version has eis btw
Do you have it? How did it work?
Battery life?
Excellent... That's not an issue at all.
Hi Mate what you prefer to recording like trips so see castles, fortress. Like medieval stuff museums WOLFANG Action Camera 4K 20MP GA100 or AKASO EK7000? If not, until 60£ what is your advise. Thanks
To be honest, I haven't tried the WolfGang. I think I'll need to look it up and get one to test. The Akaso really impressed me for sure.
@@DOUGandNIKI Thank you very much Mate. When you can try the Wolfgang. Thanks
Does anyone know why my videos from my gopro ek7000 when downloaded to my phone are seen in slow motion?
Hopefully someone will have a helpful answer.
Can it do loop recording?
I didn't see that option so I don't know. You'd need to reach out to them directly for a more complete answer. Sorry about that. What are you planning to record that it would need to loop the recording?
@@DOUGandNIKI motorcycle dash cam
@@OverlandSubaru 100% get a real dash cam.
@@DOUGandNIKI a "real" motorcycle dash cam is $400+ (cdn$) I'll make this work.
@@OverlandSubaru If you say so, to me it's an important piece of equipemnt. I'd get a proper one.
i was gonna buy this for paintball footage would you recommend
If this is your budget range then yes I'd recommend it. If have the ability to get to a GoPro or DJI, those are significantly better but they do cost significantly more. I hope that helps.
Literally the reason why I’m looking into it also.
@@simplydavis1658 For what it costs it's really good.
So I’m new to the whole like having a real camera thing are all so cards the same if not which one does this specific camera need
Any high speed good quality MicroSD card will work fine for this.
@@DOUGandNIKIok thank you because I actually go this exact camera yesterday and needed to know what to do
@@Imgonefishin I think you'll really like it!
@@DOUGandNIKI yeah I’m wanting to do underwater content
@@Imgonefishin Do you have a trip or project planned?
When the title just says GoPro and not GoPro Hero 10 comparison I'm thinking that I'm going to be watching the comparison of a GoPro to the Akaso EK7000. To me this is not even a serious comparison.
I think the Akaso buyer isn't really a GoPro buyer but they want to know... how different is it actually. I think this video answers that question. Unless..do you think... someone is thinking should I buy this Akaso or should I buy a GoPro? The pricing is so far off that doesn't make any sense to me but maybe I'm wrong. Let me know.
@@DOUGandNIKI What I'm saying is the had the title said GoPro Hero 10 instead of GoPro I would not have been interested in the video because there's clearly a big difference in price point and quality. Just a regular GoPro isn't as expensive to buy and would be a better comparison between the two at the price point.
@@Gamingcs11692 which is a "regular" GoPro?
@@DOUGandNIKI The one's that just says GoPro on it or just says GoPro Hero without the numbers which are the original ones before the upgrades.
Which one is better EK or the brave 4?
It's hard to choose. I think the Brave 4 image quality was a little better but your limited to a slower frame rate so for an action camera I'd lean towards the EK7000 as that frame rate is king for that. If you are not moving around a lot, the Brave 4 is better. Does that help?
@@DOUGandNIKI yes thank you!!
@@DOUGandNIKI I ended up getting the ASO Brave 7 LE 4K30FPS 20MP WiFi Action Camera with Touch Screen Vlog Camera EIS 2.0 Remote Control 131 Feet Underwater Camera with 2X 1350mAh Batteries
@@paulacurry4989 I guess I'll leave it up to you. After you've used it let me know if I need to do a review of that one as well.
I payed under 50€ for it. Can't complain for that price
yeah, it's a great value! What are you using it fo?
So for the price of one gopro you can get like 5 of these. Id rather have 5 good camera angles than 1 great one
I think that's the magic power here. If you can add in the GoPro you've got it all covered. What your you shooting?
@@DOUGandNIKI going to Ireland gonna do some fishing
@@kuslerf12 Are you in Europe? Is Ireland a "fishing" destination?
@DOUGandNIKI I'm from the us my family moved back over there my mom grew up there. Their area is apparently good fishing and hiking so I figured I'd get a knock around camera for the trip
Test the water proof
Just as an FYI for you... I've thoroghly tested the "basic" waterproof using it mounted on my RC Cars bashing through puddles and mud etc. It was very waterpoof that way. I don't dive so I can't test it at depth. I hope that helps.
its not a bad camera except you forgot to mention 2 faults: it only has about 1 and 1/2 hours of video time on each battery. Also, and this is really aggravating , every time you switch batteries you have to re-enter the time and date stamp. what, they couldn't put non-volatile memory on this thing ??
LOL...the time date thing is funny. I'm ont sure about the only an hour and a half run time on a battery as an issue. I'm not sure what camera you are using that gets more than that.
Today i try the Akaso and i’m so angry, because its a terrible camera. The stabilization and battery are the worst!!! I feel scammed
That's a bummer. Return it. What else would you get?
downside of this camera is in night. its so blurry😊
That's a big ask. Even my GoPro 11 Black's are not good at night.
@@DOUGandNIKI im using gopro 9 at night and its way better than akaso sir. I use akaso at daytime all day because i have 8 batteries.😁
Akaso battery is only 2 bucks🤣
@@PogingSweet No doubt the Akaso isn't the same as the GoPro, not even close. But...they all suck at night, that's just life with an action camera.
The Stabilization of this cam is no good
Which cam do you prefer?
Oh sorry, I mentioned the Akaso, However Gopro has a heat issue causing the Camera to shut down. I don't like both of them (still use my Sony fdr x3000 !!) 😁
@@user-le3tis8si9f What do you use it for? It's kind of a tough shape for most things action cam.
Yeah, it can be mounted to any device with a 1/4" camera mount screw, such as helmet accessories, etc.
Спасибо!
Your welcome!
But Akaso is an underwater camera
Are you saying I should do more underwater shots? That's what you are interested in?
@@DOUGandNIKI I think Akaso recording is lighter because that is what is needed underwater. But yes, I would like you to compare underwater cameras as well. 😊👍🏻
@@agnesb1494 That's a good idea. If I have an opportunity I'll do that. Are you a diver?
@@DOUGandNIKI no, I'm not. Just I'm looking for a good camera for holiday.
@@agnesb1494 What else are you looking at?
Very crappy camera. Advertised as a time lapse camera and has no time lapse video function. Only shoots in wide angle which makes it look like a fish eye lense. Don't buy this. It sucks!!!
What did you replace it with?
@@DOUGandNIKI I just received it today. I don't know what I will replace it with.
@@fyrehawkSix I don't disagree with you that it has weaknesses but it is so super cheap, kind of seems in balance with the cost. What are you going to be using it for?
@@DOUGandNIKI You are correct. I am looking for a camera that can shoot time lapse day and night so it's useless to me. It does however make decent videos at a very inexpensive cost. I dislike the wide angle only video though just as a personal taste. I guess the pro version and brave have touch screen but this model doesn't so the description is very deceptive.
@@fyrehawkSix Have you considered a GoPro?
Audio on the Akaso is crap though.
is there a similarly priced camera you like the audio on?
@@DOUGandNIKI buts that's my point. You'd be better saving your money rather than wasting it on rubbish
@@rottenheavenly6245 hmm... maybe. Most of the things I use this for I don't use the audio. Action shots on the car, the rc, under water. So for some uses the audio really isn't a big decision maker.
1:40 the music is so loud that we can't understand what you are saying.
Interesting... I'll watch that in the future. thanks for the heads up.
stabilization is 50% of a video
So True
