    I got the akaso EK7000 in january 2017. I broke the screen over a year ago an can only see about 80% of the screen but its still going strong today, ( WARNING READ THIS ) only bad thing is when i got a replacement waterproof case it wasn't fully waterproof, NEVER put the camera in the waterproof case till you know the case is fully waterproof, put some toilet paper in the case an then sink it in water for half hour. dont let it float on top of the water, if the paper is dry your ready to go :) hope this helps

    Excellent video. I have the 7000 because I do kayaking, fishing, and hunting videos from time to time. What I hate, and what no one talks about, is (1) lighting needs and (2) the case "pings" on the audio when you're moving and the camera shifts a little.
    Regarding the lighting needs, unless it is super bright...the 7000 just won't do. I tried using it for a regular video inside my house. I had 6 LED studio lights on me and it looked like I was shooting at night.
    As for the plastic case, any movement of the camera (when in the case), is picked up and makes a loud pinging sound that is impossible to clean up in editing.
    I don't know why reviewers never address the issues of indoor lighting (since most small vloggers will use it for i doors as well) and the use of the camera in an aquatic setting (since water-based activities are really huge).

    I'm the owner of the Akaso V50x. What I like about this camera is:
    1. Stabilization, really, really smooth and very enjoyable if you recording vlogs, etc.
    2. Video Quality, the best quality you can get is defenitely in 4k mode.
    3. External Mike, it just makes the Akaso sound better.
    4. Design of the camera, I really like the art of material it was used to build this thing and it looks great.
    What I hate about this camera:
    1. Stabilization, if you are going to shoot very fast action with big shakes, you are gonna be mad. The stabilization is making fast slides when it comes to moving the camera fast and it makes the footage not better.
    2. Lens, after turning the EIS on this camera the Image is very cropped in. This is very bad if you are Mountain Biking, where the wide field of view and good stabilization is needed. But not all is lost :). You can swap the lens for wider and it won't crop the image.
    3. 4:3 is not avaible, there are only 16:9 resolutions which kinda sucks.
    4. Internal Mike, just too quiet and too noisy. Hard to record some quality audio shots.
    That's my thought on my Akaso V50x. Feel free to comment.

    I know this video's quite a bit old now, but I just wanted to say this was an excellent review. I actually watched it beginning to end, I wasn't even tempted to click off--and with my lovely ADHD riddled self, that says quite a bit! If I'm watching a few different kinds of videos, I tend to skip around on the time bar the whole time, haha. But you caught and held my attention 100% for well over 16 mins now--even enough to ramble in a comment for the next hour! Ha! XD
    So!
    Great information, above all! You come off very authentic; I love that you actually got excited and showed real emotion, like you spoke from your heart. You definitely weren't boring, you have good energy, and you seem very comfortable on camera. You did a great job putting this video together, too. I was very glad to see that you have all of your equipment used to shoot listed in the description, thank you! :P (Can I ask what you use to edit/finalize your videos, before uploading them on here?)
    I think what I loved the most was how you didn't just automatically advise to go get the newest, and most expensive one out there, but, & more importantly, that you explained *why* you felt the one was better /for you/ than the other. I'm so glad I watched this, just for the fact that you mentioned the external audio options, alone! (..or lack thereof lol) I didn't realize how big of a deal that was until you brought my attention to it! Oh, a BIG thank you for comparing the lack of an external mic vs the camera in the waterproof case, too! Also *loved* how you pointed out the difference between the newest RELEASE vs the newest model CREATED, great distinction.
    Thank you for this little gem of an exquisitely executed video review, my good sir! As a token of my appreciation, (and a selfish quest for more knowledge! >;D) you have just gained a new subscriber!
    WOW! This got really long, really fast lol my bad. Ranting has ceased!

    Well done. I like the way you emphasized the key distinctions. Ironically, I landed on the V50 Elite for specialized purposes. I'm not a vlogger, so I don't need any microphone at all, or need dual screens. The Elite has almost everything I need (*), and when I found one at a good discount, I pounced. I'm very happy with it.
    (* Except motion detection, but the Brave 4 Pro gives me that for when I need it.)

    Hello, just found your channel, thank you for making this very useful videos. Just what I needed, there are so many of these cameras available it is hard to know which does what and which to get. I am searching for a budget action camera to do moto blogging and I need that external mic. Thank you for clarifying and answering all of my questions. The 6Plus is the one for me. I still don't like that you can only use their own microphone which might not be the best. It would be great to just get a camera with a line in port for any microphone. If you know of such a thing, please make a video about other options out there. Also, I was watching your video on my 2021 regular iPad model, and it looked fantastic, the colors where super, the contrast, the definition, you did a really great job setting up that scene, and it looks perfect on my iPad. I wonder which of those little cameras were you using to shoot that studio scene.
