Akaso V50 Pro SE

- Akaso was nice enough to send me their Akaso V50 Pro SE, even though it's been out for quite a while, is it a good camera? Yes I do think so, better EIS than the V50 Pro, very good audio, pretty much the same build quality as the V50 Pro with the addition of 4K@60 fps. I did some side by side comparisons of the V50 Pro SE and the V50 Pro and also added the V50X all side by side.
This camera came out right after the V50 Pro and before the V50X but is still a great little action camera.
At the end I also talk about a major issue with the V50X after the latest firmware update.

Congratulations! Akaso v50 pro won the test
Just purchased an Akaso v50 pro se with a lot of your help i have had it for a day in foggy England and am very pleased with it. Thanks for your videos and wish you a happy New Year
Great to hear. Happy New Year to you as well
Thanks mate. Took my 1st v50x video today of the family on scooters. Thankfully no audio required
huh? Is there no mic on the camera?
After watching your video review, I am going to buy V50 Pro SE today. Thank you for your good work.
Enjoy it
Hello sir! Thank You so much for purchasing one of our product of akaso. BTW this is Zia one of the tech support of that device. The one who spoke to you earlier. ❤️ More subscriber to come🥰🥰
Thank you for subscribing and it was a pleasure speaking with you
Thank you for this comparison. I don't know why others haven't made a comparison with the SE.
Thanks for your update and information of V50X
I have tested my V50 Pro SE when mountain biking over rough stuff and I have found the V50 Pro SE to have quite good EIS and doesn't crop the image as much which is one requirement one wanting to shoot good MTB footage. I sent the V50x back as it cropped far too much.
is it water resistant out of a case?
With all the informations given in this video, it's not long video, it's a good lecture. I needed this to ''see'' if the Akaso v50 Pro SE action camera was a good choice or nothing to consider since I already own the Akaso V50 Pro Elite (I like it), I'm considering finally to purchase the Akaso V50 pro SE action camera soon !!!! . Thank you for this fine video.
Very cool and I'm glad you found it informative. Thanks for watching
Crikey! LOL
tldr: DON'T PANIC !!!
That's my opinion. We've had the V50X for more than two weeks now. Spent a long weekend on Kangaroo Island (yes there is such a place). Came back with awesome footage. Underwater coastal shots with dolphins, seals and curious fish. An amazing rock-steady shot of a 5 foot + wingspan wedgetail eagle flying ahead of the car on a corrugated dirt road (suction mount inside windscreen). Crazy to see the car bonnet or a boat's prow bouncing about and road/horizon dead steady. Never seen anything like it. The time lapse is especially fun.
Because of your report Andre I've double-checked our long footage and CAN'T find any issues with audio sync. I agree on your footage it's bad. I'll get back to you if things change.
Here's the breakdown on our end: All our footage is in h.265. We used a 128GB Sandisk Extreme U3. V50X arrived from China via AliExpress. It came with the latest 0813 firmware already installed.
The V50X was nothing but fun, and I could say a lot more about that. I don't care that the audio is not great. We wanted an ACTION camera. Something we can kayak through rapids with. I intend to run it through Davinci Resolve... temper the colours a little but it's actually not too bad with Australian light. We had some pretty overcast days so tickling the gamma a couple of points helps there. And for the pundits out there we're viewing the footage on a LG 55OLEDC9... looks really great. What the hell do you cheap fusspots want? 😄
Glad to hear you are getting great results and are happy with yours. I bought 2 of these, the first one has the old firmware and I updated it to the latest, then did a giveaway. Decided I like the camera enough to purchase another one and this one came with the latest firmware and the issue is still there. I also only use U3 speed sd cards in all of my 4K cameras and even tried all of them in the V50X, same thing, then I even went and bought 2 of the Akaso recommended sd cards and both of them are the same with the video/audio sync issue. Now I have received over 40 emails from other owners that have the same issues. Hopefully Akaso will address this soon. Glad to hear you enjoyed Kangaroo Island.
@@WORTHITORNOT Maybe we would have the issue if we used crappy h.264?
We have a number of shots over 6 mins and honestly can't find anything wrong with the sync. I looked/listened hard. I can pick it if it's down to tenth of a second or so. On your footage it was really obvious... got a real fright before the camera arrived. But it's been OK man.
I do think it's worthwhile recommending, as you have, that folks test out their V50X before sending it back. I would suggest giving it's h.265 format a test too, it's the future anyway.
Tips: Used SD (any NAND) should be refreshed with a full (slow) format to regain performance. Just a reminder, DaVinci Resolve editing/colorization suite is essentially free for personal use with only a couple of features disabled.
@@WORTHITORNOT Oh yeah man, you'd love K.I.
"What the hell do you cheap fusspots want?"
1. Not ignorant condescending remarks.
2. Due to so many models and brands, detailed reviews to make informed decisions.
3. No, I'm not a cheap fusspot. That's just you opinion.
@@xander1756 Did you miss the smiley face at the end? Don't take a gentle rib to heart. No need to lash out. "Eh, I'm just breakin' your balls!"
I meant, naturally, it's not a GoPro, so temper your expectations. Otherwise... it's awesome.
I've thanked Andre in other threads for getting us onto this excellent camera.
K.I. is just a ferry ride away for us Xander. If our real world experience was of no benefit, if you gained nothing from it... nevermind.
I'm at 6:33 min and actually I found that the V50 Pro have a better resolution...will check untill the end !
Great review .. I tried both so far.. thanks for the effort to help others chose the right action camera
Great video and explanation and comparison with the side by side - Thank it verified my purchase of the Akaso brand. I ended up purchasing the v50 Pro.
Thanks for watching !
Great and most importantly honest review. Love the way you're doing comparison side by side with detailed explanations so that even average Joe understands what about you're talking about. Don't change the way you do these reviews.
About these three action camearas... Looking at those vids you've made here it looks that V50 PRO still has the most natural colours, audio quallity is also on V50 PRO side, no doubt about that and finally V50X has the best IS. About V50 PRO SE... I think IQ, AQ (close to PRO, but far better then X) and IS it sits between V50 PRO and V50X, guess with more refined firmware from Akaso it could improve IQ and IS a bit and when that happens with 4K@60 (especially combined with great budget gimals like Hohem iSteady Pro 2) it could be a budget king camera for those who want all around camera but don't want to break a bank.
Keep up the good work!
P.S.
As someone here in comments just said do some low light footage comparison.
Thank you ! and yes, I will be doing some low light comparisons of a BUNCH of action cameras, kind of the king of budget low light action cameras.
@@WORTHITORNOT Do it!!! :)
The details looks good in all of them but the v50x need a little more vibrant colors.
Nothing too bad
I hope they will fix the audio though
WHEWWw!.... Wiping sweat from brow. I was just about to purchase the V50X and now I am having second thoughts. I think that I will wait and see just what Akaso come back to you with.
I will definitely do an update video as soon as I hear back from them !
Man we loved it... see my above post.
Wow thanks for this video. Was really torn between the v50 models, would probably get the old v50 pro considering the issues with v50x and only marginal upgrade of the pro se.
Good video and thanks for the warning I was just about to order the V50X. My budget is kind of limited. Not enough for a go pro or yi 4k+. Maybe I will stretch and get the V50 Pro SE.
Thank you for your video. Special thanks for adding the “X”, also. My wife is going hiking so I wanted to get her the best, with in budget, on the market. Thanks again
Thanks for watching
Excellent review. What happened at 12:35. It stutter a lot in the beginning of 4k60 but look good after a while and your slow motion from 4k60 shows that all images is in there. Thanks for including 4k60 in the review. Have you tested the dashcam functons?
No I have not tested it as a dashcam.
thnx for the video im planning on buying a budget action camera for my fishing trip to Alaska this summer very infomative
Glad it helped
I have a V50 Pro then bought a Gopro Hero 5 black as an upgrade and was very disappointed the more I used it. Had LCD dimming after one minute, their new firmware made third party batteries useless so it had several issue that were never fixed and also found out their new Gopro still had the same problems so decided to get rid of it and stick with the V50.
On The Other Side Of The Road can it be used as a webcam??
Sorry, I can't answere that question never needed such use so no I don't know.
Again an awsm video...!! Thanks for the warning related to new firmware of v50x I will not update it. I tested it on my helmet and I feel the EIS that work by cropping the image is a bad idea by akaso as we are left with a video that is very less dynamic range, so either I am look too up with cropping my hands n bike handle bars or too down on the road with out lense able to capture the whole scene. Else everything in the camera looks good to me in v50x. Akaso should provide option to increase width and still have EIS on option for us..!!! (My hopes are high I knw..!!)
There is an external microphone which you can buy for 9 bucks in Amazon. And I am using this with my v50x, no issues with audio.
I just ordered the v50x. Should I get the external Mic too? What are you using?
@@enjoymylife8104 if u are not satisfied with audio quality, then it's logical to order one. V50x is an amazing action camera except it's audio quality. Thanks.
Great review, love this!
Thank you
I hope Akaso fixes this audio issue on the V50X soon. It’d also be nice if Akaso would add a 24fps setting.
Will be buying the SE. The PRO is also great and at times seems better than the SE. As for the X it is mostly awful.
I know thats fake but still one of the best quality camera out there !
The color of the V50 Pro is the best. Just look at 7:28 it's much cleaner. The Pro SE is brown colored.
It definitely has more sharpening added on the V50 Pro and yes the SE is a lot warmer of a color tone.
Man, I just love your voice! You should be doing voice overs, commercials, announcing, emceeing, everything and anything. I hope someone finds you if you are not in the business. already.
I used to do radio years ago and did voice over work but that was a long time ago. Wouldn't mind getting back into it honestly as it was fun all those years ago :)
I bought the x and haven’t received it yet but after seeing this video I will be sending it back now. I have two v50 pros and I am super happy with them. I’m not too impressed with the se on your review mainly that brown tint and it not having eis at 60fps. Thanks for your reviews, you are the reason I’ve went with akaso. Just going to stick with my pros til something better comes out from them. Thought the x was going to be good based on your last video but I see it’s not what I took it to be. Keep us updated. Thanks
I honestly suggest you test it out first... in h.265 too. You have nothing to lose.
its amazing how many little action cameras there are out there. the color science is really different on these...Great video man. Your channel is worth it! BTW, why is your spa empty?
Heater broke plus wife wants me to redo the entire pool next year. $$$$$$$ lol
@@WORTHITORNOT those dang wives! Dont they know that $$$ is for camera gear? sheesh!
Bryan Auer : Haha, exactly !
The magenta V50X
The red V50 Pro SE
The green and most natural V50 Pro
V50 Pro FTW
Don’t like the colours at all on the V50X or audio, yet I resume it is more money?
Love your videos lots of useful info. What would be the best micro sd to use for the SE if I'm primarily recording 4k 30fps?
For all cameras that shoot 4K you need these: amzn.to/3i9HSAY
I would say the Pro looked as good as the SE, it was very hard to see the difference. However, it is scary with the audio-video sync. So conclusion, skip the V5OX and get the PRO and save the money unless you want to donate money and get that 4K6Ofps
Oh well !! I have to say that the V50 X has the much reality colours and the stabilysation is not bad at all. 11:15
Great review 👍👍👍
Great video and thank you for the detailed comparison. I bought the Pro SE prior to watching your video and I am glad I made the right choice. EIS is great on the X but comes at the cost of video crop. A decent gimbal should result in a better stabilization on the SE or the Pro. I am not sure how Akaso released the X without looking at the audio issue. They should pay you for the detailed QA you did! Overall, the SE is the best pick for me.
I think you'll be very happy with it
@@WORTHITORNOT Your video seems very good but you need to be careful on promoting the Akaso Pro-V 50 SE. I bought it this past month based on your review I went through two of them in the very first day both times the video froze after 1 minute and then on top of that when it freezes you have to take the battery out you can't shut it off. Also I spoke to the managers by the way are about 18 to 21 years old you can tell by their voice, about the firmware when they send it to you can't open the file they want to send me a third I said no thank you I'm going to save up for a GoPro you get a lot of accessories but it's not worth it. I reviewed it for a long time also before I bought it but as I'm looking it gets a lot of bad reviews. People having a lot of problems with it also I couldn't turn on the image stabilisation which I tried but it's not in bold letters so you can't turn it on. in speaking with a casa they didn't really know how to do it either. Also, in trying to download it to your phone so you can use your phone the apps don't work both of them. Just be careful when you promote a product because you will have a lot of people upset.
@@fishing132006 That's crazy that you have had so many issues with yours. I only "promote" as you say items that I have tested and found to be good, with saying that, you might have gotten a bad batch of cameras, which happens even with GoPro as my first Hero 5 was junk and kept freezing on me then finally bit the dust. My V50SE has been flawless in all of my usage with it and I make sure to thoroughly test items before posting reviews of them and trust me, I have thrown many items under the bus here on the channel that did not live up to their claims. Regarding phone apps, I NEVER use these 3rd party apps, I video, then take the sd card out and transfer to my Desktop for editing etc.
@@WORTHITORNOT Maybe so on the bad batch. Thanks for your reply. I just decided I'll save up for the GoPro 7.
Chris Kennedy : Now that’s a great choice
The Camara V50 pro seems to be more natural, to me, the other one seems to be to bright.
The 50X has the better stabilization and you can color correct in Davinci Resolve, as of today the 50X is only $84.99. If you're a vlogger, buy a cheap BOIFUN, if you are actually doing anything that jitters buy the 50X and click the "Auto Coloration" button feature in Davinci, because its super hard to do lol.
When color grading, it's always better to do it manually as "auto" anything just gives a small bit of desired results. The V50X has great image stabilization for it's price no doubt, I just wish they would address the low volume audio, but for the money we can't have everything :) BTW, nice name lol
@@WORTHITORNOT You can fix the audio in post as well. Auto color works pretty good in my experience, but either way, you can adjust for color, you can't adjust for Michael J. Fox shaking the shot. I just scooped up a V50x for $77 looking forward to seeing what I can get out of this, at that price point there's really nothing that can beat it.
You will be surprised at how good the stabilization is (at the cost of a big crop) and for the money a good all around purchase.
@@WORTHITORNOT Greetings is the audio a problem if I record external and sync in post
Long Shot : Yes because the video will still be out of sync. The audio on the V50X stays constant but it’s the video frames that wanders around.
Nice comparison, and nice advice on the V50X. BTW any word on low light performance of the SE compared to the X (or at least, to the Pro)?
I will be doing a low light video of a BUNCH of action cameras to see which budget action camera is best in low light.
@@WORTHITORNOT you really know how to stick people to your feed do you?
Dario Toledo : Haha
Awesome video you sold me on a Akaso V50 Pro SE for airsoft videos I want to do.
It's a really good camera for the price.
Thank you, mate. I actually like this comparison. I purchased the V50 Pro SE. And I am disappointed with the Time lapse video making. Are there any issues reported? Since you own this, could you provide me a detail video with better specification
Sorry, I have had no issues with mine, you might want to contact Akaso for assistance
Hey, thank you for a great review! I've been watching your channel for several days and it's really helpful.
What about battery life differences between Akaso v50x / v50pro / v50Pro Se? I am going to use one of them on the motorcycle helmet with ext microphone and im curious which has the best battery performance. I think mainly about v50x and v50pro ( i don't need 60fps in 4k), which do you recommend? or maybe another camera around 100-120$?
If you're going to shoot in 1080@30/60 I would say that the Firefly 8SE has the best battery life, between the Akaso's, the V50X has good battery life over the V50 Pro in my opinion.
SE has a noticeable warping!
These are budget cameras and none of them will live up to the GoPro or Osmo action. Heck the Osmo is on sale now at a crazy price : amzn.to/3eyCerj
The sound quality on mine is terrible. I ordered the official AKASO mic and it doesn’t even fit the port
That's weird as mine has decent audio. Can you post a video on your channel of it's audio?
Good vid
Thanks for watching
Thanks Brotha for these great videos!!I Saw your Video last night on the Akaso v50x, I was just about to purchase the Akaso v50x until I Saw This Video!? So,.. With that being said, Should I buy The Akaso PRO SE instead?
The V50 Pro SE is a great camera with the EIS is better on the Brave 6 plus. Audio is better on the V50 Pro SE, but if audio quality/loudness (can be boosted in edit) is not a concern, I would choose the Brave 6 plus at this point. Hope this helps
@@WORTHITORNOT BE HONEST NOW LOL What's your take on the goprp hero 7? Good, Bad, Excellent, Great Beginner.etc? Please Help Me..I'm Very Interested.
1SwoleNole : Most people ask about GoPro alternatives, but these budget action cameras can not compare to the Hero 7, let alone Hero 8 or Osmo Action. So with saying that, get the Hero 7 black and call it a day or spend a little more and get the Hero 8 or Osmo Action and have the absolute best action camera
@@WORTHITORNOT
WOW!,..Oh Ok,..Alright Brotha About to get the GoPro (Hero) 7 Black and some accessories..I Know there is a learning curve, hope you make some GopPro (Hero) 7 Black Tutorials for beginners! Thanks for all you do! Stay Safe and Healthy My Friend!!
Hi ! Just tested my V50x with old firmware, out of the box (not the latest firmware that you shared) In 4k 30fps, there is obvious frame dropping. And audio is out of sync. But, in 1080p 60fps, that did not happen. Would you like to check it out?
I changed my sd card Kingston U1 64gb to samsung evo plus U3 128gb, problem solved. lol
It appeared the 50 Pro had better color than the 50 SE. Can that be corrected in the settings?
No, but you can always color correct/color grade in editing to best suit your personal preferences
Nice video bro
im waiting for my v50x to arrive, thanks for the early warning haha..when it arrive i will not update my firmware
Trying to decide between the brave 7 and the V50 pro se. Which do you recommend? Or anything better? For around £150 max
Hello! great video!
I bought the v50 pro SE and my camera seems to have a lot more jello effect than yours with EIS on.
Any configuration or new firmware to prevents this?
Do you prefer v50 pro SE, or firefly 8se?
I prefer the Firefly 8SE
My first Akaso was EK7000pro. I now have the V50 pro for a year or so and happy with it. Will look into the V50 pro se. I would like to know more about up dating the firmware? Thx.
Anytime, thanks for watching !
thanks for the info.... it solved my doubt... will stick to buying v50 pro se
Happy to help
@@WORTHITORNOT .... it's very astonishing that most of these companies don't have their service/repair networks in India
The video quality of the SE seems to be between the Pro and X to me, with color being better on the Pro. I've been looking at these 3 and I'm leaning toward the Pro even though the image stabilization seems slightly better on the SE. The V50X definitely has that reddish hue to it, audio seems horrible, and picture quality is not as good....
do you try change lens v50x? i think uv filter in v50x not round shape, more like square.i have this problem on eken h9r and change lens with uv round filter (using gopro replacement) and now is perfect. and i still waiting v50x in local custom.
I love your reviews! I have a question for you: I have just bought a V50 Pro SE, and I’d like to know if there is a way in order to use it for live streaming. Do you think it is possible?
I haven't tried, but will check and see
@@WORTHITORNOT thank you so much!!!
Hello. I have acaso V50 pro SE action camera. I have some problem with it. When I watch 4K 60 FPS video, image freezes. I use Sandisk Extreme Pro 64 GB micro SD card. I talk to Akaso Company. They said update software. I mad it. But problem not solved. What do you think about this subject? Please help me. Sincerely...
Love the effort you put into this vid but,, If you dont upload it to youtube at 60fps we can't really see the section where you did 4k 60fps with the SE.
But then all the 30fps shots will look all jerky because it’s on a 60fps timeline
I do not think the V50 Pro SE is better than the V50 Pro. Especially on the image quality if you look it closely on your video. Thanks for your review though.
Hello. Thanks for the video. What are the best settings to et that image?
Appreciate the help. I just got mine a few days ago but need guidance for
improvement. Thanks
4K@30 everything else auto
Sir I bought new akaso v50x camara.but video is not bright.very dul sir .so what we do sir. please explain.
Use a U3 sd card. Any other issues contact Akaso
Greetings from India. Took your rec to pick up the V50x. Have absolutely no problem right now.
So, are you saying I should stick to the standard firmware for now - the one which doesn't show EIS in the settings menu? So, your review video was on this firmware? Did you just check "gyroscope" to enable EIS in the old version? How well did it do? Apologies for the number of questions.
Your videos have been extremely insightful in helping me decide. BIG Thank you!
Yes, stick with the firmware that is on the camera at the moment. Akaso should be releasing a new firmware to address all these issues soon and once they do, I will update everyone as to how good/bad it is.
@@WORTHITORNOT Thank you for replying. Tested out the v50x. Not very happy with video on 1080p. Think I'll be returning it and getting the go pro hero 7 black. Doesn't really make sense to have a nearly product when you're spending quite a bit anyway.
Hey neighbor, any word from Akaso on a firmware update?
With such a great product, I thought that Akaso would have rushed to fix the issues.
No response from them to my emails. They still have the V50X listed in their Amazon store, but I'm a little concerned that they have taken it off of their website.
I've been enjoying my V50X, but recording audio seperatly. A real pain to sync later. Especially because I'm still trying to learn my editing software, (VSDC).
Any info is appreciated
No word from them at all about these issues. Shame as this camera has a ton of potential
@@WORTHITORNOT Yeah, I'm surprised. Really thought they would respond. Especially since I bought mine directly from them.
I received a V50x and it already had the new firmware with EIS and GYRO installed
Do you have the audio and video syncing issue on your device?
I haven't recorded any videos with audio where I can tell if it's out of Sync. I think I will be sending it back though as it crops the image too much WITH Eis on.
Great review. I ride Enduro dirt bikes on single tracks in the jungles of Thailand, theres a lot of sharp up/down bumps like log crossing and large rocky sections and a lot of sharp left/right turns, and of course there are vivid colors with detail in lush jungle. The highest priority for me is image stabilisation so its enjoyable to watch, followed by detail and color. Which would do better, the Pro or Pro SE? Or should I look at the Brave 6 (if its any better)?
If your highest priority is image stabilization then get the Osmo Action or Hero 8
@@WORTHITORNOT sure but they are 3x the price here in Thailand .. I think the SE or the Yii 4k+ best options
Also when v50x get big vibrations. The Stabilization don't do so great. They need to update it fast!
Thank you so much for your videos! I devoured all of them trying to choose between the akaso cams. I've been trying to figure out some things before buying: I saw that these cameras can be also used as webcams via USB, but I can't find information regarding the maximum resolution/fps it outputs to the PC. I also saw that it is possible to HDMI output to a pc using a Capture card, but haven't found any information regarding the maximum resolution/fps it outputs in that way either, or if I could get a clean hdmi signal out of it while live previewing via hdmi. Please, can you help me find out about this?
Since it has a HDMI port you "should" be able to use it with a capture card. I'll have to test it later today or tomorrow and report back.
Akaso Customer Service are mainly there to make excuses for crappy firmware. I have a V50 Elite that bricked after 3 days light use, and it took several emails even to get an unhelpful response. Probably they're not paid enough to care.
Niiiiiiiiice review!!!! Thanks:)
Thanks for watching !
I getting a Akaso v50x, to mount it on my motorcycle. To record my travel. I should not update the firmware? How was IS before and after firmware update. Will Akaso release external microphone for V50x
I mentioned it in the video the EIS was perfect in the old firmware. They are supposed to be releasing an external microphone
Thank you
Nice tests, but the Akaso V50 Pro SE lacks blue in the sky looks like grey think I should go for the normal pro as the sky is more blue .
That's because the setting is set to daylight giving the picture a warmer look.
Thanks for the video one question
For my firs action camera should i get the akaso v50x or the v50 pro se?
The V50X has better stabilization but the V50SE has better image quality and audio.
Is there any chance to turn on both Image Stabilization and Distortion Calibration on the V50 Pro SE ? Thank you
Unfortunately no
Hello Sir do you have any idea how to set up better quality on video recording where I have using on motovlogging. I have used 1080 60fps and lack of brightness.
Hey man! I was looking to start moto vlogs soon. Would you prefer the apeman a100 or the v50 pro ( not the SE as it’s not available in India) or should I just go for a used hero 5 ?
If you can afford the Hero 5, then save up a small bit more and at least get the Hero 6 black or 7 black at least
What is with the rainbow prism thing in bright sunlight? I ordered one of these and from what I can tell both the pro and pro se have this issue.
It's the placement of the lens which catches sun glare.
I'm looking for a good camera to hold while I run many miles through dirt and rocky trails. Which camera do you recommend with the most stabilization?
GoPro Hero 8
WORTH IT OR NOT? Thanks !
Why can't I transfer videos and pictures with the USB cable from camera to computer ? I must remove the card every time. My other model Akaso 7000 the computer recognized the camera. Any ideas ?
Don’t know as I always take out the sd card and copy to computer. Try contacting Akaso
hello, still no solution to solve the audio problem 4K akaso V50X? thank you
Nope not yet
I have the latest 20190813 firmware on mine and haven't noticed any out of sync audio issues. Just poor audio quality which I'm hoping they'll fix very soon.
Have you recorded 5 minutes worth of video, then downloaded it to your computer and go towards the end of the video and see if your mouth and audio are in sync. I have gotten over 40 emails so far from people all experiencing the same video/audio out of sync issue and one person sent me a copy of an email from Akaso stating they know of the issue and are working on a solution.
@@WORTHITORNOT I just tested it again just to make sure and it's all in sync throughout an entire 10 min clip. One other issue tho is that if I use the 110 or 70 degree angle, it goes off center quite a bit. But I only shoot in 170 or 140 so it's not really an issue for me.
@@stevenr6139 Well congratulations, you are one of the few that having a working unit without audio sync issues.
@@stevenr6139 You should post up a video on your channel showing you talking for 5-10 minutes none stop to see/show that it does not go out of sync. That would be helpful to a lot of viewers
I'm with you. It's the same for us.
I record in h.256. The max file size I can get with 4K is 9min and some seconds before it starts a new file. It's about the 3GB mark. Maybe it leaves some headroom in there. You are right about the 170 and 140 angles being best. I don't use the zoom either really, will do that in post.
Thank you for doing all this for us. I would like to buy a small and "Cheapy" action cam for my upcoming vacation, and I can't decide between the Acaso v50x and the Crosstour ct9500..(they are about the same pricerange...) .can I ask you to advice me on this matter? Of course I want good picture and good stabilization, but maby the acaso crop out to much of the picture? Thanks in advance!!
Unfortunately I can’t comment on the Crosstour ct9500 as I have never used that camera. For the price the V50X is a good camera with very good stabilization.
@@WORTHITORNOT Thanks for replay!! Think I go for two Acaso.v50x..(3D)...
Nice Video, I cant find any comparrison on the V50X vs Brave. what would you recommend out of the 2? I'm on a budget.
Audio is not important as its for Trail Riding and only want to spend around £80.
I don't have the Brave to compare it to, but if audio is not a concern, then this should fit your needs
@@WORTHITORNOT awesome cheers man
I do not know anymore...skin tone !!
There's a new firmware update for the camera from 10/19 (AKASO-V50X-20191019-V1.0.zip
). Not sure if this the audio fix.

Yup, got that one last week and the audio is still out of sync.
@@WORTHITORNOT argh! I bought one of these cams to take with me for my kids' first trip to Disneyland. What a huge disappointment I'll have if it doesn't work. Does it happen on both h265 and h264? Or any temporary workarounds ?
How does the V50 Pro SE improve on the V50 Pro?
Is any Akaso model waterproof without a housing, at least for the first few meters (like the GoPro)?
Thank you!
This one is waterproof without a housing. amzn.to/32UjgXt
Which of the Eken or SJCAM camera models would you equate with the AKASO 50 PRO SE. In short, more or less acaco analogues.
The SJ8 Pro is a rock solid action camera in my opinion
Great video
Thanks for watching
i checked the website of akaso. They don't ship products to Thailand?
Maybe check with a local seller there
I just received my V50 Pro X from Amazon. I haven't opened the Amazon box and have decided to send it back. I currently have 2 V50 Pro's and their microphone. Can you tell me the current firmware release # for the V50 Pro. THANKS
My V50 Pro is running TJT08022018_V4
If you bought the V50X why not try it out first? The compression on YT is not kind to 4K.
I have a akaso v50 pro and it won’t let me shoot video in 4K is shows it on my menu but won’t let me select it. Do you have any idea why? Thanks so much for this video it helped a lot
Get this sd card: amzn.to/2UiSQe8
You need an SD card that can handle the 4k data.
Just bought 50x, so your suggesting NOT to upgrade firmware to both gyroscope and image stabilisation ?
If you use firmware dated 0806 then that one is okay as long as you use H.265 so it won't have the audio go out of sync with the video.
@@WORTHITORNOT Mine just arrived, showing Gyro only , NOT going to update
@@WORTHITORNOT any idea where to get a mic for 50x? Is it the same external mic they sell for 50 Pro?
My akaso v50x cannot turn on gryo while recording in distortion calibration
That's normal, in my V50X review video I mention you can not use EIS with distortion correction at the same time, either one or the other.
Great video comparison, thanks! I want to take video footage through the front windshield while driving, like a dashcam (but for limited run throughs of a few minutes at a time). Your comments about the Firefly 8Se took my fancy, as did the V50 Pro SE. I am old school and not real technologically advanced. What is a good action camera option you can recommend for me?
I personally like the Firefly 8SE video quality/coloring much better, so as a dash cam, I would choose that one.
You are a legend. I didn't think you'd still be out there cause the thread was a long time ago. Any issues/tricks with mounting the 8SE as a dashcam? I'm thinking to the windshield rather than the dash to reduce vibration/shaking?
Dave Perrin : Windshield suction cup with 1/4-20 male which will screw right in the bottom of the 8SE
Great. Will it not be upside-down then? If so, does that work without any fancy production to turn it up the other way? Cheers
Dave Perrin : Just rotate it 180* in your editing software
Thanks for the review!! I'm in doubt, which one will you choose between v50x pro se (97€) & v50x (78€) ? Thanks !
The V50 Pro SE is a more refined camera in my opinion, with saying that the V50X has great stabilization but very poor audio where the SE has very good audio.
@@WORTHITORNOT thanks so much for the reply ! Finally ordered a v50 pro se :)
SE has a wider angle.
I bought 2 Akaso V50X cameras to shoot HQ EIS 3D videos. Did not like the hard cropping though...so I swapped the lenses to a wider angle lens. Works like a charm ;) !! If you're interested to see what it looks like here's a link:
