AKASO Brave 7 LE | Is The AKASO Brave 7 LE an OSMO Action Killer? Our Review.
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 сер 2024
- Super excited to finally be able to try out the brand new Akaso Brave 7 LE (Launch Edition)! What makes the Akaso Brave 7 LE (Launch Edition) so exciting is the fact that the Akaso Brave 7 LE (Launch Edition) includes both a front-facing screen, which makes it compete with the DJI OSMO Action Cam AND that the Akaso Brave 7 LE (Launch Edition) is IPX7 water-resistant without a case! This is fantastic.
Now the built quality of the new Akaso Brave 7 LE (Launch Edition) is beyond any camera that Akaso has released in the past. With all the waterproofing the Akaso Brave 7 LE (Launch Edition) is built to a much higher level of quality.
This is our first video and review of the Akaso Brave 7 LE (Launch Edition) but we expect to do a few more videos as we put the Akaso Brave 7 LE (Launch Edition) up against the previous Akaso cameras, including the Brave 6 Plus, V50 Pro, GoPro and the Insta360 One R with 4K mod.
How does the Akaso Brave 7 LE (Launch Edition) stack up to the competition? At almost a third of the price, we think this camera should definitely be on your watch list.
Head on over to Akaso’s site for more information on the Akaso Brave 7 LE (Launch Edition).

Awesome review! I keep wanting to grab an akaso cam, the front screen is definitely a great selling point! Thanks for the video.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
This camera looks great, I’m ordering one now 🙌🏾 great review 👏🏽
My Brave 7 LE will be hear tomorrow! Looking forward to trying it out. Great video!
Hope you enjoy it!
@@gregtoope Love it! Also just ordered an external mic from AKASO. www.akasotech.com/accessories/externalmic
Greg, I thank you for your professional, informative and very detailed reviews! Thanks to your reviews I have just purchased my first AKASO camera. I’m starting with the EK-7000 for now, but I will move up to the more advanced models! I have DSLR’s (Canon & Olympus) and a camcorder, but this is my first action camera and I can’t wait to receive it and take it for a spin! As a new subscriber, I will browse through your past videos in order to get up to speed on the AKASO brand. I’m glad that I didn’t shell out the extra money for a GO-PRO! Thank you again.
finally. Was waiting for this review for so long
Hope it answered any questions you may have had. Will be doing some follow up videos, so be sure to ask any questions that we may be able to answer in those videos.
yes, i was looking to get a v50x, or maybe spend more on a sjcam sj8 pro. but when i saw the brave 7 le.. i was waiting for its review to come up and hoped this wouod be good.. and it is good. thanks for the review.
I like the way you explain, very detail. I just bought it today and waiting for delivery. Hope everything will be okay
I hope so too! let us know what you think of it when you get to play with it.
I was looking for your osma action dji vs akaso Brave 7 LE video ,your reviews are very cool .
Thanks 👍If i actually had an OSMO id do that video. But the OSMO will definitely be better in quality. Go for the Akaso if budget is a big factor
@@gregtoope I bought a apeman A100 , worst ever camera , blurry and jerky video footage .... The D5 body cam 1440p is much better than the A100. Will get the akaso Brave 6 plus ,it's on offer on amazon.co.uk for £99.99 RRP is £130 ,oji osma action is £250 on offer on amazon RRP is £349 ...
Nice review I enjoyed the video.
Awesome, thank you!
The best part of your video is your FIAT 500.
I'm in love with this car. I've had a black one here in Brazil.
Yeah its a fun little car for sure.
thank you powerful info shout out to your next video dude
Thanks 👍🏻
Just got Akaso 7LE. I hope they will keep up with this low cost high functionality high quality products!
I hope so too. They just need to add mic support to this camera and it would be amazing.
Hey Cruisn I purchased the Akao V50x on your recommendation and it's been a great Camera. Looking at adding a second camera and am considering the Brave 7 LE . Use the V50x mainly for off road Motorcycling so the 4k 30fps and the image stabilization of the V50x is most important. Aside from the obvious addition of the waterproofing re there any other upgrades/downgrades from the V50x to the Brave 7 LE? Thanks!
Hi Greg,
Really appreciate your honest and impartial reviews. I'm looking to purchase a couple of Akaso cameras for sea fishing videos (fixed tripod and chest cam). I'm interested in the EK7000 and the Brave 7 LE. Can you advise on the best replacement batteries for both? A typical night session could be 5 hours so I will need probably 5 of each battery. Many thanks !!
My procrastination on getting the 6+ could pay off. I eagerly await the external mic test and more footage. Well done.
haha. yeah if the external mic works, this could be the best Akaso yet!
Hi is it possible to connect an external mic have u guys already try it?
I'm excited for this new offering from AKASO, I'm holding to get the Brave6+ because of the newest Brave7LE - THANK YOU for doing the initial test and YES, please have it compared to the other AKASO cams and the other popular brands too
Will Do!
@@gregtoope can you do a "water proof" test? maybe submerge it in a basin, in the sink or just water it with a garden hose to simulate what is specified in the spec . . . Thank you
@@kutispwet6441 sure. ill make sure to include that in our follow up video.
@@gregtoope thank you for your kindness, I shall wait for it
We love our v50 pro but this is sooooo nice! I hope all the new akaso action cameras will be available on Amazon CA soon!
I hope so too!
First of all well done really nice video
Short question can be used ( video or shooting ) during charging .
Thanks
Keep rocking \m/
Hey dude! Great video 🙂👍 I've just got my Asako 7 as well. I agree with you, it's quite impressive for the money! I've actually got a DJI Action so I'll be pitching my Action Vs the Brave 7 🙂
Nice. Dont have an Osmo, so ill be interested in seeing the outcome!
Wow....now I almost wish I waited to buy my dji ozmo action...I've only used it a few times....I'm going to give it a try in the casinos next week for the first time....I've been using the ozmo pocket....Thanks for the great review...
Have fun!
Pretty good and friendly review thank you so much. This camera looks great for the price. The microphone seems to be unusable in windy conditions, did you try it with your motorbike ? Is it good?
video wise it works great on the bike, but since it has no external mic support its no good for audio. Its the only real downfall of this camera. Would have been such a great little camera if they would have included mic support!
an waiting for this video only thank you sir
Most welcome
Is it a hot issue the temperature,.? when you used it for a long recorded or stanby.
Sounds like a keeper ! I am looking for an action cam for my moto vlog but with this price point I may get two ! Just need to see your review about external mic
So ill get right to the point. Doesnt look like it has any external mic support. If you are looking at a camera for motovlogging then the Brave 6 Plus is the one from Akaso that I would recommend... For now.
If that’s the case you’re right mainly because the Brave 6 plus has the same stabilization firmware (2.0 6 axis) It is an a shame that Akaso did great job with the 7 LE but only went 90% of the way. An external mic option or input is a must if you ask me. Keep the rubber side down my friend
I ordered mine the day they removed the "Pre-Order" label and am really looking forward to it. Please do put that test up with the V50 microphone, I'm going to start Motor-logging and that would be a great addition. Good video, well done.
Will do! Ill hopefully be testing it either later this week or early next week. Could be a great combo!
@@gregtoope Any luck ?
@@gordonshaffer5560 The Brave 7 LE does NOT support an external mic. Reached out to Akaso and they have confirmed that no mic support in this camera.
How are you mounting to motorcycle or helmet? I hate the big deep diving case and havent found an alternative.
Is this camera available in Canada ? The AkasoTech site points to Amazon.com but this model can't be shipped to Canada. Thanks for the great review !!!
Thanks for the great review!
But I'm still not sure whether to buy this camera or just the DJI Osmo Mobile 4 Gimbal to use with my smartphone. What do you recommend?
it really depends on if you are going to use this as an actual action cam. If so then get this, but if you are just wanting to use this like a standard camera, get a gimbal.
This i feel is my next vlog camera...when will amazon have this i wonder...much respect from trinidad and Tobago
Just be aware that it looks like this camera has no external mic support. If that info changes I will post in regards to it.
@@gregtoope tanx sir for clearing that up..i appreicate the time taken to make this video and replying also to me...i have the m50 atm the moment until i get more funds fro like the dji action
Good camera thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching
I had one for 3 days and sent it back. I went through all the settings to see if it held up to me doing my usual videos and it went back for a full refund. I've had an Osmo Action for 3 days and love it. It will more than likely replace 2 GPH8B
That's unfortunate. I've had pretty much used all the current Akaso lineup and the only one that I had issues with was the V50 Elite. If you can afford a GoPro, OSMO or Insta360 style camera then you should do that, as they are definitely higher quality cameras. But if on a budget, for most, these do just fine. At least that's my experience.
Now thats an interesting camera!! I just wish it had an external mic support. As I've read, only brave 6 plus gets external mic support.
Can you put it up against Akaso V50PRO SE.
will definitely put it up against the V50 Pro SE. Will work on that video shortly.
How does this camera perform in winter and low temperatures when skiing? Does the battery hold?
This is the best review I have seen on the Akaso 7LE....well done and thank you.
Oh btw...did you ever get the external mic thing worked out
Sadly this camera does not support an external mic. The new Brace 7 (non LE) will have external mic support. Hopefully coming out soon.
@@gregtoope thank you for the reply....and after watching your review I went ahead and order one last nite from Akaso direct....i may regret the decision...because im sure shortly the Brave 7 will be released...but the price from Akaso was too good to turn down....thanks again...oh....ima subscriber to your channel....👍👍
Does it come with a helmet mount , if not can you recommend a helmet mount for the 7 LE ?
Get this video camera next month because taking a trip with my Piaggio mp3 250ie,!
Hey bud, nice video! would appreciate the help. which do you think is better. v50 pro or Brave 6 plus?
At this point if I were to buy only one I’d get the brave 6 plus. Has better stabilization and the external mic is better.
Hi my friend !! Congratulations for your super videos ! I need your unique help about my choice . I need a low budget action cam for internal youtube videos ( fixed cam ) . How is the better choice ?
Hi Greg.
I'm looking to upgrade my motovlogging set up . I've got a gopro 3 at present. Would this brave 7 give better quality than my old gopro 3?
Does it save an hour of footage or does it break up into a bunch of 8 minute clips? I heard the app stitches them together for you is this true?
What's with the hissing? It looks mighty impressive.
The lighting inside is better than the other Akaso you've showed.
I think I just found my new action cam. Ordering a Brave 4 for an everyday dashcam setup. It's $93cad
Nice price.
A great review. Thank you. BUT have you found an external mic that will work with this camera? I have the camera but would like an ext mic. Thanks again😎👍👍🇺🇸
Spoke directly to Akaso and the Brave 7 LE does not have external mic support. I guess we will have to wait for a Brave 7 Plus. 😢
Cruisn Canada Sad. I’ll have to decide to keep it or return it. As a newbie, which action cam would you personally recommend? Hero 7 or Osmo action? I see the need for an ext mic. Thank you.
Great video, does it have touch record
Not that I know of
Sharp footage and good colour, although frame rate looks really low. Don’t think it will be killing Osmo action yet.
Yes that was verry fantastic i realy like it
Appreciated.
it's a bit muffled on the mic im looking for one that i can take good photoes, rather than have to keep stopping my gopro to takes pics u got any advice.
How easy is it to download video from AKASO cameras to a PC for editing purposes? Do you have any suggestions for good video editing software that work with the video format that the AKASO's use?
Great review sir.. I had same review but an additional minor issue that you should watch before you decide to buy this action cam. May be it was an isolated case cause I didnt seen same issue from others.
Thanks for the info
Impressive little camera for the price point 👍🏼
It really is!
Hi! Does the mic work with the case??
So which would you say better Brave7 le or the Go Pro Hero5
How do these Akaso and DJI batteries compare in terms of performance?
How do i view my video on a laptop or iphone? I’m new to these little cameras? Do i need to take the memory card out every time?
You can use the Akaso App on your smartphone to view the footage but on a computer you have to import from the SD card.
sir how did you get nice audio when you are took videos that akaso
oh snap. does that mean I should wait for an updated version? Should I buy this now or wait for a better version?
Its still a great camera, only wait if you need external mic support. My guess is we will see that in an updated version. Or at least thats what im hoping for.
They should fix the audio in their cameras, instead of producing a new cam every 2 months
Can you put the camera into black and white?
Hi i brought a AKASO brave 7 le the other day recorded a video which was about 5 minutes long and tried downloading it to my phone via AKASO go app but the download took about 13 minutes to finish? Is this normal, seems like a long time ? Plz help lol
can you change the video iso settings in this camera?
Nice review, thanks. For the price of this kit, the picture is wonderful. If you are an average user, this is a great buy. It is a joke how much the competitors charge. The mark up they do on these camera is unreal.
you definitely pay for the big brands.
@@gregtoope I was planning to order the 7, but I do think the 7LE is better !!!! I currently use the V50X and I love it. The best camera for my Goldwing, day to day riding.
Hi, good job sir! I've been watching some of your akaso's products reviews its give us idea and help us to choose which action camera should we buy and not so expensive i like that akaso brave 7 le and i am trying to purchase it in Amazon but it says that they couldn't deliver it here in united arab emirates do you have any idea how can i get it?
you may have to contact akaso directly to see what the options are.
Get on ebay
Which is the best camera for motovlog? From akaso brand ?
From Akaso I would say the Brave 6 Plus. But the New Brave 7 (not LE) will be out soon. So that may be high on the list. But as of now id go with the Brave 6 Plus.
Weather-proof without case at that price? Definately interested. If external mic works for motovlogging I'm in.
Exactly. Will hopefully be testing it later this week!
I interest to buy Akazo Brave 7, but in indonesian the product not available...help please mister for your recomended, thank you🙏🙏
Hi I motovlog amd consider purchasing one. Does it work with an external mic?
No. But they are releasing a Brave 7 soon. And that one will support external mics. Check out Akaso’s site for more info.
Hi enjoyed this review, did you manage to connect it to the app on your phone I have had no joy whatsoever. Thanks.
I have, but i honestly never really use the app
@@gregtoope thanks I'll persist, see if I can get sorted
could you also do a test against other akaso cameras? put it up against the v50 pro and the v50x
ill put it up agains the V50 Pro but dont have the X so cant test that.
What kind of selfie stick and tripod is compatible with Akaso brave7 LE?
Hi, can you do a comparison video of video quality and stabilization between brave LE, brave 6 plus and go pro 7,8.
Would be great.
Thanks for video.
Most definitely. That video is on the list.
@@gregtoope will wait.
Is the sound fix on the brave 7
Thanks for the review! I visited their site via your link, but only saw options to purchase in the US and UK... I’m Canadian like you so I’m curious as to how to purchase? Amazon doesn’t offer this model on the Canadian site and the Amazon US won’t ship to Canada. Thanks again for your video. :)
Yeah as of now Amazon Canada does not have it. Spoke with Akaso and they are having problems getting the camera to amazon.ca. Fingers crossed that it ends up there soon.
Cruisn Canada I’ll keep my eye out for it to show up there. Thanks!
Comparasion Akaso Brave 7 with Akaso Brave 7 LE Sir??
Does this model have voice control like the others?
Does the akaso 7 LE have an upside down feature?
Just starting UA-cam channel and this cam is great
Can you use this as a WebCam. Great channel by the way
Thanks for the comment. I dont believe that it has a webcam feature. So i would saw no. But I have not tested to be 100% sure.
year later, i paid 139 on amazon. was going to get a gopro but want to do more research so i got this as a learning tool for vlogging and diving. I really thought it would have an external mic adapter because it had about everything else.. guess not.. that is a bummer. thanks for your review. made me feel better about my purchase.
Glad I could help!
Bit at 127 for the 7LE with the water housing and mounts, pricing didn't drop much over time. Adding it to the EK7000, which seemed to have some bugs in the firmware, and I could see the advantage for stabilization in walking scenery and underwater shots. For selfie shots it seems stabilization doesn't help.
I couldn’t find your other video, I may have over looked it. Did the external mic work on the akaso brace 7 le. Thanks
No. Akaso has stated that the 7 LE has no external mic support. The Brave 7 is coming out soon and will have external mic support, so we are excited to get our hands on that one.
@@gregtoope Thanks for the info. That was my choice for a camera to start making more UA-cam videos. Now it’s back to the drawing board. Lol
You said the price out loud..I got in trouble..lol
What hand mount is that?
does this support external mic ? do a test please..
we will be testing shortly
can i use a 128G SD CARD WITH THIS CAMERA???? OR JUST 64???
Do you recommend that in motovlogging??? Install in helmet chin...
the camera itself works pretty well for motovlogging, but since the LE has no external mic support I would look elsewhere. The Brave 6 Plus and 7 have external mic support which is kind of important for motovlogging.
My AKASO brave 7le not turn on. Tried plugging in wall nothing no clicks. Returned to amazon
Did you ever find out if it has external microphone support?
yup, no support. the Brave 7 (non LE) should be out soon and that will have external mic support.
Hi Sir! Is the Wrist remote water proof and can be used on your wrist while swimming?
That i am unsure of, but my guess would be not. But ill see if i can verify.
Cruisn Canada how do you fix the waiting for Mem card problem everytime? Had to reformat them everytime. Really frustrating. Thanks
Im always getting card Error
Should I wait for this Akaso? I'm a truck driver and I would to put the camera in and out of the truck to record
really depends on if you need the width. The Gopro can shoot much wider. But if the width is fine on the Akaso I would just go with that. The Gopro is a better camera but at 3 times the price, price has to become a part of the thought process.
Can it record straight away from pressing the record button or do you have to turn it on first then press record?
Dont see an instant record feature in the menu. Ill continue looking. If someone sees it, please comment.
@@gregtoope Just have the device off and only press record and see if it works.
@@EliReyCelebelis nope. just tried. didn't work.
@@gregtoope Bummer. 😥
wait for new brave 7 2021 or buy osmo action ? do u think akaso new brave 7 can beat osmo action ?
That i dont know. but i hope to have one soon.
Hi, could you please tell me what kind of SD card I need. AKASO Brave 7LE . Thanks
faster the better. I usually use Sandisk Extreme Cards.
Nice video. Look forward to your next review. I’m sure Akaso mic sound will be settled with firmware updates.
Fingers crossed! But doubtful. Spoke with Akaso and they said that the Brave 7 LE wont have an external mic option. ☹️
Im a bit late but , but l have the 7... you cannot have image stabalisation on in any mode when the fish eye correction is on .. The 4k with I.S on is cropped and then resampled back up to 4k .. 2k60 is the highest setting that supports I.S native.
If you view through the camera app you can see all this happening in realtime as you alter settings (there is no access to IS or lens correction in the app though..you have to disconnect to alter these settings ..(all smoke and mirrors)
Hey Greg the AKASO 7Le has external mic on the new one the 22 model
Waiting for brave 7 review (without LE) before it is released. Almost bought LE, but can wait a little if it is worth (Akaso gave me -15%)
Im supposed to be getting one for review! So make sure to watch for it.
Nightlapse for Brave 7 LE?
So you ride a motorcycle and would like your opinion on wind noise since seeing you just walk with it in a mild breeze i can hear quite a bit of wind noise. I have yet to see good camera to mount to the front of a motorcycle that doesn't sound like a hurricane in the wind!
Sorry...looks like I found the answer to my question down below
Just got mine today.
Let us know what you think.
Have you heard of any overheating problems with the 7 LE?
How much is that tripod stand?
