this is by far one of the best camera designs in my opinion...i hope akaso can make a different camera with this style but the camera facing the back side
It's a good review. Personally I wouldn't buy it though. The form factor doesn't have a lot of advantages for most uses. The screen is tiny and it makes the menus a bit awkward too. In addition it won't be compatible with a lot of existing accessories for standard form factors. Some reviewers are saying the 4k is fake as well, and it seems the evidence points to that. The audio is bad, but that's a common problem at this price. It would be interesting to see how the video compares to other budget action cameras like the Akaso V50X which offers true 4k and is selling at around the US$100 price point.
Got the C200 and love the fact that it is build like a little tank: its body is out of metal and contrary to the C300 water/rain proof without a case. Touch screen is an improvement imo, as the button pressing on the C200 is a bit annoying. In case you want the smallest formfactor (without the 'batterygrip') you cannot use the camera in the 'normal' way, as the lens and the screen are on the same side; great for self absorbed vloggers, totally unusable for 'normal' usage. Mic placement is a bit stupid imo; they should have added a second one on the other side. What are the time-settings for timelapse?
Lots of love from Nepal. Sir, may i know whether we can use external wire or wireless mic or not for moto vlogging? Please answer to the quary. Thank u.
Informative review Alex, thank you. SJCAM have put out a new version of the C100+plus with the same Novatek 96680 chip as the C300, but it is 1/2 the price.
GoPro currently is directly selling the Hero 8 Black for $199. In the US, Best Buy is also selling it for $199.99. I think that is a much better bang for your buck than this SJCam for not a whole lot more.
Hope you will be in good health. I have two queries about sjcam c300 Is it has real 4k resolution when you are recording. Two can we attach external mic with it . U
Great question! I totally forgot to talk about this. You can use it and record plugged in to a power source. It even works if you remove the battery and have it plugged in.
I don't think I would buy it for vlogging. The biggest problem is the bad audio quality. Also I'm not really sold on that form factor, I don't think there are a lot of advantages and it means the screen is tiny. Some people are saying the 4k is fake as well because the sensor and chipset don't support it.
This camera is amazing IF you don't need good clear audio. I love every other feature of it. If anyone knows an external mic that will work with it, please let us know.
You and most other people use an external mike so why worry about the mike position, it actually is in a good positing it you are recording while walking and just want to add a comment while filming.
Your review for the C200 influenced me to buy that camera. Now, I'm afraid I'm gonna be buying this one, too, but I still have to save first. Thank you for your review! Watching you from the Philippines 🇵🇭 ♥️
, , ,but the sounds w/my helmet together with my boya mic sound crazy i cant understand the word i say ,and if i take off my helmet w/my boya mic my voice was cleard and loud,.i got full face. Helmet😩😩😩
Video quality better than action 3. BUT everything else a big NO. It is better to use smart phone such as S10 to S22 a lots better instead of this product.
FAKE 4K. its actually 2k cam. change the video quality of this video 1080p then 4k. im using 4k monitor. and it is same. don't record it at 4k30p it is actually 2k it is just waste of memory card
I have a SJCAM C200 a latest firmware this model is better quality video and colors is perfect!!! C300 this model is bad colors and quality video is very noise
excellente idea to follow somebody (your daughter), we realize very well the speed of your run with the camera.
Thanks a lot, from France
Thanks for checking out the video! It was her idea! :)
@@RedskullPro Great !! Congratulations to her !
I think this is the clear winner for the budget friendly action camera category!
Yeah it isn’t bad for $140
this is by far one of the best camera designs in my opinion...i hope akaso can make a different camera with this style but the camera facing the back side

amazing review my friend. are there any external mic options with this? As in is it possible to use an external mic?
hey there good vid. So you can actually turn the monitor completely off on this C300 ?
Go Pro is 4 times the price? The Hero 11 is 249 dollars USD atm and that camera is 159.00
I believe that with the channel you will succeed, good luck!
Lots of love from Nepal.

That one is not worthy. I will be sending it back to Amazon. The image is good , but the stabilization is horrible!!
Awesome man. Sjcam looking good for cheap price.
For $139 is definitely good enough!

I have two queries about sjcam c300
Is it has real 4k resolution when you are recording.
Two can we attach external mic with it .
U
I don’t believe the 4k resolution is real 4k, very likely 2k.
No external microphone support
not bad camera for the price it has 160$ totaly not bad I think.
Thanks for yhe review Alex!
Yeah, even $139 if you don’t get the attachment. Hard to beat that
I can notice the image distortion. Is there a fix in the settings?
that is the video with that setting enabled
what's battery life for C200? you didnt mention how long i can record in c200. plz
hi mate, how about external wireless microphone ?
I’ll watch your videos even after 100 years
Thanks for this review man. Your reviews about c200 is the reason why I bought C200 . Watching this for upgrade
Thanks for checking out the video! This definitely has better video stabilization and slightly better video quality
how long can you record video in c200?
@@themelodiousworld6176 2hrs because of the battery
@@themelodiousworld6176 one full charge can record 2hrs
Was it windy for all your tests? Excessive noise reduction effs up audio.
Not that windy..
You just make the internet better!
this got me soo hyped
How long does the battery last?
Can you also use the attachment with second screen for the SJ C200 model?
No
Yay! I was in your video! 🎉
Wow!! Bubu was watching the video! 😍
Hello. What is the alternative best price and quality to GoPro? I need a camera for motor vlog. Thanks
DJI Osmo Action 3
Hi Alex. Hope you can read my comment. Wanna ask, how can you mount this on a handlebar from a mountain bike?
Hi, you need a bike mounting accessory. You can find them cheap on aliexpress. Around 10 on Amazon. Search “bike action camera mount”
@@RedskullPro thank you for this. Will do
Hi, can still use directly into plug? I will record my travel for a very long time so is it possible to plug it directly to power outlet?
Great question! I totally forgot to talk about this. You can use it and record plugged in to a power source. It even works if you remove the battery and have it plugged in.
@@RedskullPro can you make a video on using it directly without battery? And send it to me?
If it really works I will buy right away.
Does it have internal storage, and what gb if yes?
Looks fine for this price.But i noticed strange distorsion.a bit like fish eye lense
Yeah, it is quite noticeable
Great review thank you
Glad it was helpful!
Are this camera built in GPS? Thanks 🙏
No
good honest review…i follow❤❤❤
New action camera video coming up soon
Which is better sjcam c 300 or the sj 20 dual lens? @@RedskullPro
Great camera 🤙
Thanks for checking out the video!
Good review.
Glad you enjoyed it
Video looks overly sharpened and the contrast is way off. Good stabilization. I hope SJCAM invests in better sensors for the next iteration.
Doubtful
Would you say for the price it's the best available action cam? I want to buy one to vlog my holidays ande summer concerts I will go to
There isn’t really any other action camera at this price that does better. Could be the best budget action camera
I don't think I would buy it for vlogging. The biggest problem is the bad audio quality.

does it record vertical video for instagram aspect ratio?
no
Can it support an external microphone?
No it cannot
No point recording in 4K 30 because it does not film in 4K, it does not have a 4K chip so you are better to film in 2K 60.
Well i asked the sjcam company, they are insisting its real 4k. Blatantly lying
SJCAM C300 for 130 EUR, AKASO V50 Pro for 119 EUR or Wolfgang GA400 for 123 EUR? It will be my first sport camera.
How much is a GoPro 7?
@@RedskullPro too much, i find used GoPro 7 for 170 eur in my country. I think it is too expensive for old, used product
Can you compare it to v50x?
I didn’t keep the v50x

please tell me can sjcam c300 zoom
I couldn't find a way to zoom in with it
No stabilization in 1080p 60?
yes, there is a sample in the video
Great Video 👍
Thanks for the visit
Great video! do you know if the camera makes videos in vertical format, like videos for Instagram stories?
It doesn't!

Don’t spend any more money on tech you don’t really need!!! Save and invest instead!!
@Redskull I guess I need to consider that advice 🤔
Nice quality 👍
Definitely better than the C200! Thanks for checking out the video
this or the insta 360 go 3?
new Osmo Action 2 128gb 285€
cool accent bro, new jersey?
Definitely needs to improve the mic .. then it would be a killer cam
Yeah...and no external microphone support...
Wow very nice action camera.sana magkaroon din Ako nyan
Thanks for checking out the video
I like this camera with big battery pack and also easy to change to small battery pack to install the waterproof case.
Thanks for checking out the video!

They fixed it
It was broken before?!
Not bad with that price
Amezing. I want it.
😀
can we be a friends?
Umm that doesn't look like 4K at all lol
Terrible, why didn’t you mention it’s 4K is fake? Or can’t you tell?
You are assuming that it’s fake.
@@RedskullPro Novateck 96660 can not do real 4k, so you assume its real without checking
@@edeldavis4213 How did you think it's Novatek 96660?🤣
Video quality better than action 3. BUT everything else a big NO. It is better to use smart phone such as S10 to S22 a lots better instead of this product.
All flagships phones from the past 2-3 years have better video quality
@@RedskullProwhich phone should i use for pov videos?
FAKE 4K. its actually 2k cam. change the video quality of this video 1080p then 4k. im using 4k monitor. and it is same. don't record it at 4k30p it is actually 2k it is just waste of memory card
Unfortunately, quality is no good, I will prefer to buy osmo go2, size is much better. Now price is low.
Like everything else… you get what you pay for 🤷♂️
I have a SJCAM C200 a latest firmware this model is better quality video and colors is perfect!!!
