There is a brand new Akaso camera! The Akaso Brave 6 Plus. Full review: czcams.com/video/uCMCGhExA9E/video.html
This video is rather misleading and bias towards akaso being better. Why would you do a comparison test with auto functions on and "not" mention it in the video, title or description? The only place you mention auto is on, is in 1 of the comments below that most would never notice or read.
If the iso from 1 camera compare to another isn't the same, how can you comment 1 camera is better than another? That would be a comparison between 2 different camera with different iso setting and I can not understand why you would do that. If you simply want to compare which camera auto function is better, that's totally fine but you need to mention that within the video or at least title.
I don't understand why you would say Akaso image stabilization is better when the video of both camera going over large bumps or while running, at points the Akaso camera video totally shake for a moment while the gopro moved only a bit but no actual screen shake.
The only reason I could assume is that you created this video knowing Akaso camera is cheaper and wanted to try earning some money from this video by attaching an amazon affiliate link in the video description. It would have been much more appreciated if you did an honest comparison showing the value of both camera for it's cost and not simply lie about the facts.
I have v50x, 4k 30 fps image is really that good and usable, dont forget to order the ext mic as well. No complaint at this price point.
Hi good to know.. kindly give link for external mic on Akaso v50x.
Thanks bro.. 👍
Ok I will order it right away. Thanks for the advice
So, what camera offers the best value for the money?! The V50X or the GoPro 7 Black? Akaso also confirmed that the V50X supports an external microphone!
Akaso V50X on Amazon: geni.us/gBEbCf
GoPro Hero 7 Black on Amazon: geni.us/vtJ9nt
Sir, Where I can buy a external microphone compatible with v50x? Please.
It should become available on Amazon in about a week
Thank u... I like your videos :D
So since this video, it appears Akaso upgraded the V50x since I seem to have slightly better specs. My desktop is down at the moment, otherwise I'd upload a comparison video but I was surprised by the changes.
I didn't know! Thanks for sharing
@@RedskullPro same! I was hoping it wasn't a fake at first but it appears to be the real thing.
I uploaded a video on my channel.
As much as the EIS on the V50X is outstanding when going in a straight line only, the GoPro 7 is better when going around corners or doing any type of creative camera movement. For example after 5:14, you can quite clearly see that the V50X stabilizer starts jumping extremely when he rides around the corner while the GoPro has some form of inertia calculation going on. Imagine a cinematic follow shot like Garret Brown's famous one from "The Shining". That just wouldn't be possible with the V50X without using a gimbal and EIS off. Also, such types of angular movements are kind of usual in the way an action cam is used, such as on a bike or when skiing. Maybe you should include a dedicated "corner running test" for your reviews, like slalom running around some traffic pylons in a line with the cameras to get a lot of direction changes.
I have to say that for regular walking videos and jogging, the V50X works very good with the EIS. But doing extreme sports with sudden turning movements makes the camera to struggle. Really hope this can be fixed somehow vía software update.
i don't think that will be ever fixed
instead of this, they build a better one.
Akaso and such brands sell lower tech budget cams, cimparing to gopro (and sony,garmin etc.) They choose chipsets and sensor which they can add sufficient specs for different needs.
such a well stabilization needs way better components. But then, the price gets close to gopro and why shall we buy it!
7:59 The traffic lights are blue? WTF with GoPro 7.
I wouldn’t say the black is worth 3x as much as the v50x but other than image stabilization, price and accessories the black is better in overall image quality in most shooting situations, doesn’t need a waterproof case, lots of recording options, linear mode, etc., etc.
For a secondary budget camera, especially with the latest firmware update enabling an external microphone, the v50x seems to be one of the top options.
Yes, had to justify the price of the GoPro 7 where there are all these cheaper alternatives that are getting really good. The GoPro 8 is supposed to bring some insane accessories to the action camera
why v50X recording image so much cropped and zoomed??? is that causing by the wide angle setting??? i mean could you fix it by changing the wide angle settings or not... ???
It’s recording like that to achieve better stabilization. If you turn off the EIS the field of view is much wider
@@RedskullPro EIS is the best...it doesn't matter if the image is little zoomed thats fine for me...thanks for the video thanks for any informations you shared with us ...really appreciate
The Akaso had better image stabilisation? Hmmm. I observed periodic jitters and some jello at the edges. I also observed quite a lot of jello in the night footage from the Akaso. I also regarded the Akaso footage as having too much gain. It did show more shadow details, but at the cost of a muddy gray-violet sky that looks terrible. I might prefer the GoPro to do better, but I wouldn’t use the Akaso at any price. Especially with fewer frame rates and features.
For a budget cam, the V50x beats the GoPro 7 black hands down, especially if you have the ext mic.for the Akaso (because the int. mic sucks). If you can get a used GoPro 7 black for $200, then for sure get the GoPro otherwise, if you're just going to thrash the camera around, get the V50x. $300+ vs $99, no brainer. Like if you want a cam on your MTB or in the race car. Why spend $300 when the $99 solution is 75% as good? And you can have 2-3 V50X for the race car in different places for the price of a Hero 7. The V50x EIS is good for a budget cam, it won't make you have a headache watching the footage.
totally agreed with you..
I ordered the V50X with external mic yesterday. Do you know if the camera is good enough to copy money so I can buy food?
I'm palnning to buy the akaso, i've been watching this review over and over. Thanks for sharing. Just new here
Hey, thanks for checking it out!
Is the v50x do work as a webcam ? From other video.. it look it's still better than newer 7le..
It almost seems like the GoPro has some sort of internal Dynamic Contrast setting set to high. It looks "pretty" but crushes details in dark areas and does have more oversaturated colors that as you stated is more for "instagram likes" and not as true to what you would see in person.
in all fairness, the footage could be easily corrected in post
There is one very important thing about the action camera, can they record upside-down. I think is one thing that all the reviews sims to forget about. But for an action camera it is one of the most important thing
I just picked-up a V50X. Watching your video, I recognize the city!
All things considered I believe the v50x outperforms the GoPro in this particular test. I think it would be hard to justify the price difference by purchasing the GoPro versus the v50x. the audio yes Advantage GoPro other than the audio I think the average person would have to pick the v50x
Akaso V50X, has a lot of purple tint and fringing in high contrast areas, such as in the trees which makes it a no go for me.
The sky does look purplish in the side by side. Nice catch
What's better between Yi 4k(not 4k plus) and akaso v50x? I wanna make motovlogs and have a separate arrangement for recording audio already. So I'm mostly concerned about the video .
Well, the V50X will have better stabilization...and I think that will be the most important for that type of a video
Hello! I want to buy v50x for rides with the motorcycle. Do you think that is it fine? Greetings from Greece!
that's what i got for riding my motorcycle, for the price and good stabilization.
@musk-eteer9898 Hey, i want to buy it to record myself playing football, i want to show my feet and the stadium, but I'm skeptical about the Zoom it has. Can you tell me your experience with it?
I also got it for this purpose
Great review boss
Thanks boss!
I bought akaso v50x. You can change the lens of the cam to make it wide view like go pro
Is it sold separately?
@@dan-lee I'm pretty sure it's an unofficial mod a lot of people do, it introduces more fisheye but makes your view much wider, fisheye can be corrected in post if your that bothered. Tbh I don't know enough about cameras and stuff to do it but it is possible
I installed lens with 1.8mm, 1.7mm and 1.44mm focal length.
1.7mm has the best wide view setting. Make sure the lens mount is M12*0.5
@@shahrullabula5288 is the picture quality the same? and also will this help with the excessive cropping with EIS on and give a wider FOV?
@@nfa_utube now i use 1.56mm lens. The best wide lens setting for me so far.
I think the quality is still the same, cannot really compare it because of different viewing angle.
But if i use with waterproof casing, i need to change the lens protector with insta360 x2 len protector (sticky type) which is dome shape. The original lens protector of the waterproof casing will block the edge of the view.
With waterproof casing + x2 lens protector, sometime the footage can see the power button at bottom right edge due to EIS.
It looks like in go pro they put some expensive hardware but they did not work at all with the software, meanwhile akaso tried to get the maxium possible from a cheaper sensor and that looks impresive. The price of the go pro is not justified at all, after i saw this video. Thank you!
V50X with EHS on The angle of view becomes narrower.[Because translation software is used, the language will be strange.]
Yes you are correct. It seems to be zoomed in almost.
Appreciate the comparison. While the Akaso is good value for the money and it's stabilization is pretty good, I feel the GoPro beats it in how well it retains details/sharpness while moving and it's low light image quality is far better. Low light contrast and sharpness is particularly good with the GoPro. The Akaso blurs fine details when moving (look at the grass and leafs). And no, I don't own a GoPro because I think they are a little over priced. But that being said, I may break down and spend the money on one anyway unless I find something comparable or better for less money.
I agree that GoPro looks sharper however its problem is also pretty clear, it has compress dynamic and if you look at the grass, the colour of the sky, the paved road colour. Akaso did well with colour reproduction its picture is not as sharp as Gopro, but GoPro also seems to be using aggressive sharping to produce that picture at an expense of colour accuracy.
What would you recommend for drone footage , microphone doesnt matter. All that matter is quality footage with the most stabilized picture. And I'm wanting your opinion out of all action cams you have reviewed. If your a youtuber that replys to comments ,I'll subscribe..Thanks
depends how much you want to spend... if you don't mind spending $400 get the GoPro 8, that one has the best stabilization. If that isn't possible the Akaso V50X has pretty amazing EIS for a cheaper camera
@@RedskullPro thanks I'm gonna subscribe.. btw I can get the go pro 8 black for 299 right now if I trade in my old sessions 4 . I do appreciate the speedy reply and I will support your channel . Also are you Russian? Privet!!! My wife is actually from Rostov, Russia and my child is half Russian.
Excellent video as per usual, I personally have a Y1 lite and a Xiaomi Mijia which are also very good budget cameras however this Akaso looks brilliant value for money - shopping around you can get it as low as £74 GBP - now that is a bargain, you very fairly point out the differences between the 2 cameras in this test with no brand biasing and a very honest and informative review to help buyers who perhaps haven’t got a bottomless bank account make a decent purchase without throwing their money away on an unknown product. Best wishes. Richard.Yorkshire.England
The problem with the Akaso is that the image crops a lot with the stabilization, but really good for the price
yeah, that's how it achieves the good stablization
Here in saudi 1500 for go pro7 while akazo v50x is 522 riyals,trple price go pro,akazo is enough for beginner,
You are an excellent reviewer!
Thanks for watching!
Does the v50x support external microphone??? I need to use it for vlogging, what's your opinion???
the v50x supports external microphones. link in the video's description
The audio on my v50x with or without the external mic both suck ..
Awesome review! I was looking to get my husband a gopro for fathers day for his biking BUT #1 his a beginner in biking and #2 he is an amateur when it comes to technology lol so I don't wanna spend too much... For a beginner camera the Akaso is perfect. Thank you for the review and helping me make a purchase decision.
Hey, also check out the latest camera from Akaso, the Brave 6 Plus. I've done a full review and comparison with the V50X and the videos are available on my channel
@@RedskullPro another awesome and helpful review, thank you!
Hi Alex, great comparison. Not too bothered about Electronic stabilization, but would the Akaso be suitable for "static" recording of fishing videos in the rain / wet conditions without the waterproof housing? Also, without the waterproof housing, do you think that the sound would improve with a quality external mic??
That stabilization is amazing for any action camera not just the v50x. I wouldn’t mind if they offered a slightly less stabilized mode to decrease the crop and increase the video quality.
Agreed. They should have had two levels of stabilization
this crops are in FHD and 4k ??
Hello sir, i had seen all reviews of akaso model and still didn't found which one should i choose. So sir, what is the most best model from Akaso?
I think the V50X offers the best value and best image stabilization
@@RedskullPro I ordered a V50X after this review.
The V50X crops also of image as u can see the gp7 is more wider.

I agree with you on EIS comparison.
Can you please let me know your recommendation between Akaso V50X , Akaso V50 Pro & ThiEYE T5 Pro.
My preference is just day time video quality, I know Akaso V50X has one of the best stabilization.
I think the V50 Pro has the best video quality of the 3, but the EIS isn’t great. The V50X is probably the best compromise
@@RedskullPro Thank you :) I wish I could buy the Yi 4k+, but I'm unable to find one in the US.
👍
@@asheelonline Yi 4k+ have better EIS than V50X ??
The v50x might not hace a good mic but you can't beat the picture and stabilization, also when you take pictures and zoom in the go pro is fuzzy where the akaso is clear and the battery absolutely sucks on the go pro. I'm glad I didn't spend extra on the go pro I want to buy a second akaso that I can attach to our atv and the other can be set up and ran from the wrist remote which doesn't come on the go pro either. 2 akaso's 240$ to 1 go pro 300$ plus.
A new Akaso camera is coming very soon
@@RedskullPro yep the brave 7, I can't wait for your video
@@RedskullPro which new version will be out?
Hey do you think whats dome port is suitable with akaso v50x? Its seems both are quite the same size. Maybe gopro7 dome could suit vx50?
i wanna see the v50x on a mountain bike trail, for its stabilization.
that would be interesting to see... but it's winter now...
@@RedskullPro oh. i see.
I have used it on the road, mounting it on the helmet and went through bad and good roads both. Stabilization works very well
For the night shot, was the lens on the Akaso completely clean? It has a lot of light scattering. I don't like the low sound volume of the V50x but I do like that it competes with the GoPro. Too bad sound is not as good as v50 Pro. I think the v50 Pro has just as good of sound as Hero 4 black. Thanks for the wonderful review.
Yes, then lens was clean on it. What you were seeing is coming from the EIS...if I turn that off (last night sample) it looks better
v50x The best GoPro battery runs out quickly and gets hot
Hola Alex
I am writing from Argentina, sorry for the translation.
I follow your channel. I am going to buy an action camera.
I really like your work, testing equipment.
I could not find an OSMO Action test performed by you.
Also in the last year, I could see in your channel, that you have used OSMO in comparisons with other cameras.
At one point I was already decided by an Apeman Trawo.
Then I found on CZcams, comparisons between Apeman and Osmo Action and I observed many differences in stabilization
I belong to a group of Trail racers (running team of trail) and I would love to have the best stabilization. Also get the best image quality, which I consider Trawo had achieved
I could not find an OSMO Action test performed by you.
Also in the last year, I could see in your channel, that you have used OSMO in comparisons with other cameras.
So these are the questions
Do you have a test performed for osmo Action?
Bearing in mind that now Osmo has a lower value ...
Do you recommend Osmo as the best?
Do you consider any other camera with its updated firmawere, comparable to OSMO?
Muchas Gracias
Rubén Vallejos
why do the things look nearer and bigger in the akaso v50x compared to the gopro? is there a setting to change that
That is what the electronic stabilization does. It crops the image. If you crop more it will be more stable, if you crop less it will be less stable. If you don't use the stabilization it won't be cropped.
Ok thx for the info
I've been wanting to get a second GoPro for an additional camera but, after watching this review, decided to get a V50x instead. Thanks a bunch for this head-to-head comparison!
Thanks for checking out the video! When the GoPro 8 comes out I'll do this video again using the GoPro 8
Very interesting thank you Excellent comparisons
Thank you for checking it out!!
Wow the Akaso V50X is pretty amazing for the money, obviously its not quite as good as the Gopro however for like less than 1/3 of the price!!! Crazy cheap. With external audio recording id be happy with one.
There is an external microphone for it available on Amazon
It seems you tested these right out of the box, but did you use the correct exposure values for lighting.. cuz it seems you never did any of that..
All cameras are reset to the factory settings before making these videos
Thanks.. Will buy V50X as I need cheaper camera for occasional use..
good choice!
I really like your youtube channel and the way you review products. By any chance do you have a review of Apeman A79?

Redskull : Hello Alex ! Yes , finally the review that everyone has been waiting for between the ....GoPro Hero7 Black vs Akaso V50X...!!! Very impressed with the V50X and with your booming voice the mic 🎙 is a lot better than reviewers claim it to be !!! My voice also booms when I am recording so no problem there , as I am seriously considering the V50X for my secondary rough weather camera 📸.....Instead of buying a Rugged Smartphone....?/?

I plan on editing in music 🎼 for when using an action camera like The Akaso V50X ....Thereby I do not find the mic 🎙 to be such an issue as most people claim...!!! Otherwise I would be using a higher quality external mic 🎙 if I wanted the surrounding sounds >>>....Or even my own voice recorded when necessary in a video....!!! Plus when one factors almost a 1/4 the price , of what a GoPro Hero7 Black costs in the local markets of Southern Ontario.....The Akaso V50X is the overall winner....$$$. Thanks Scarboro 🇨🇦🍀📸💚
Hey, yes, I tried to talk a bit louder for this video. Also if I talk behind the camera it sounds better as well. As you said, would be great for video if you record the audio separately
Can you make a video on the Zoom Q2n-4k please? This musician-focused action camera has dedicated stereo mics built-in and claims to have HDR video - likely the Sony DOL-HDR that the recent sensors can do (which I tested compared to a Yi 4k and it makes a real difference when filming towards bright light sources like lamps in medium-low light indoor situations).
Very good comparison
Thanks for checking it out!
Excellent review, as always!!! Great information and great help, Thanks...
Thank you very much for watching!
I like the sound and wider angle on the gopro ,but is it worth it for the price?
4 times more expensive....I don't know...
Just get silver...
the v50x has more natral footage insted of the gopro it kinda looks like the sony cams on the iphones
Your the reason I got the v50x n love it!!!
Happy to hear, thanks for watching!
Did you use an external mic on the v50x ? If yes which one is it ? Thx
No
When the GoPro shoots at 60fps does it blow away the Akaso?
yes
but go pro is 350 and dis 50x is 100
3:35 "RRRunnig test!", sounds like "THIS IS SPARTA!" ))
Haha, I don’t run much 🤣
The audio of the V50X is useless. But video quality is quite good, even the EIS is good for the price. If we can mod the microphone or add a good external stereo mic, then we would have a winner especially considering the price.
They already noted in their faq page there is no external mic for this camera..
The latest firmware has enabled an external mic option. I have one being shipped to me
Akaso answered my email a couple of days ago regarding the external microphone on the V50X and supposedly now it supports an external microphone
@@RedskullPro I messaged them on IG. Supposedly they're sending me the mic. It only works with the v50x like that one mic only worked with the v50 pro

please review v50x with external microphone soon.
Great comparison! Akaso v50x, v50pro se or firefly 8se.. what is the better between these 3 for motorcycle / airsoft / vlog?
the v50x has the best stabilization, the v50 pro has the best video quality, the Firefly8se has the best sound...so whatever is the most important to you
not bad for akaso v50x. cheaper but also a great one. nice review.
Definitely not 3 times better as the price suggests :)
good for starters
If v50x put mic on that camera..sure the audio will be great
thank you for review
seems to me you are in Ontario right?)
Cambridge, ON
Eis is not working with image distortioncorrection
Hi can you gave me the akaso you bought?
oh yeah
You're saying the v50x has better image stabilization but at what cost? Lots of dropped frames(skipping) and a cropped image. The v50x can't handle abrupt turns and movements.
Your not making a blockbuster movie! Are you?
@@danthefireman5930 . If you don't care about image quality, then what would be the point of you watching this video.

Nice comparison by the incomparable Alex! Still considering this camera for the toy pile. Cheers
Morning Scott...but you have all those phones ...and they can all record videos...
Does the V50x crops images on all resolutions, if EIS is turned ON? Or only in 4k

Thank you for the side bu side ... very clear and concise.
Thanks for watching!
Thank you for your reviews...very detailed
Thanks for checking out he video!
This is why i bought Akaso. Thanks for this amazing and helpful review
Thanks for checking it out!
Is the stabilization really that good in the Akaso for MTB and shaky sports alike?
I have tried it a few times and i can say yes. I will write a new review soon after our ride north.
Disagree about the GoPro night shots - They are Wayyyyyy more stable, crisp and a lot less noisy. The Akaso is unwatchably jerky, bleeding, blurry, noisy... In my opinion.
Indeed
Hello, is there a 3d print for 50x to mount it in the fpv drone?
thank you so much for this video
Thanks for checking it out!
Hey RedSkull, I enjoy all your comparison videos but I have a question: What would you consider the best quality budget camera that isnt going to cost a crazy amount?
Yi 4k+
@@RedskullPro Sweet thanks man, for motorcycle riding? I'll look into it :)
Which angle did you use on the Akaso? It says you can use a "super wide" angle. Your footage looks extremely narrow.
The widest angle available. If I would turn off the EIS it would be much wider
Sad that the v50x decreases the view angle this much. You need a chest mount for MTB vids then which is a disadvantage.
Thanks for your vid !
@Hängyord DarkFlame to me not. Because when you stop riding you film the sky. It is too unflexible.
Better chin mount or at the side of the helmet. You film what you see and what you look at.
However, it is always a compromise.
The reason why I still use my Sony fdrx3000 is the stabilized 170 degree view angle. Even it is not smooth as gopro'' s hypersmooth. But yeah, the sony has definitely disadvantages, too.
I wish I could find a good and not too expensive second camera. But it has to have at least the quality of a hero7 black, which is still expensive. Talking about sad 135 or 145 degree. ... some cameras have only 115 or 125 degree. Far too small angle for mtb videos.
The gopro max lense has 155 degree but I won't pay that money.
If you like, have a look at my not professional chanel " mtb partysan"
Hey Redskull did you ran into issues connecting the V50x to windows via USB? I'm trying to connect it to read my microsd card, but nothing on two different computers, and if you did where you able to test if it was recognized as a pc camera.
I always take the sd card out and copy the files that way.
@@RedskullPro thanks, I figured it out for some reason pc camera or USB card reader options only work with the akaso micro USB cable... I tried with other cables and the camera powers up, but won't be recognized by the PC.
You did a great job on this video! Personally, I like the color rendition on the GP much better. Color rendition seems washed out a bit on the Akaso. Regardless, based on your review, I am going to pick up an Akaso to shoot B roll on my next motorcycle tour... Thanks so much!
Thanks for checking out the video! A new Akaso camera is coming out in a couple of weeks
@@RedskullPro Thanks, I will watch for it.
good review..this Akaso is good EIS n cip too.. this can feel the good for action
Thanks for watching!
The GoPro clearly runs with more contrast and is warmer. This could be tweaked, in post, on the Akaso, to achieve the same (Or better) look. Generally, I think the Akaso footage is better (Except in 1080, where it is horrible). I also think the sound appears worse because it is noise-cancelling more. It might not be so bad when boosted in post. Obviously tweaking things in post is time-consuming, so having something you like the look of straight out of the box has merit. I just bought the Akaso 6+ based on your (and other) reviews - this is because it gives substatially better video than the V50X, has better stabilisation AND with a mike, makes for a VERY cheap MotoVlogging set-up. Thanks for your video :) Thorough and well presented :) Regards, Campbell from NZ.
I would like to see a recording of akaso v50 at 120fps (slow motion), if it looks good and does not distort
doesn't look that good
Alex, Did you you Protune (flat color?) in your Gopro? What were the settings you use for your Akaso? Seems the dynamic range is really good,. Does it have to do with the metering used?
Hi, both cameras were set on auto mode just as them came from the box, I always do a factory reset on them before these types of videos
Go pro is in other level
@@RedskullPro Alex, thanks for your reply, I've been looking for a "good-cheapish" alternative with stabilized imaging, I have a Harley 1200, and shakes a lot, GP7 is sitting on my tank, and with the hypersmooth, looks really nice, and plus the Protune activated (set it like that), does a lot better than the Akaso V50X (my opinion). Akaso V50x has very good EIS, but too much sharpening and not so good dynamic range, I will link my results in this comment. Thanks for your reviews, still pretty happy with Akaso V50x, got it for 83 USD, remarkable EIS for the price!
Interesting outcome. Still not fair to compare the biggest H7 with the smallest v50.
Concerning the price, perhaps you should have compared the H7 white with the V50 Elite.
Those were the cameras i had at that moment
V50X has much better EIS over V50 Elite.
Hello, congratulations for the interesting video. Please, I need your advice as you have a lot of experience. I would like to buy an Action Cam just to use it under the sea. I wouldn't go below 20-25 meters. I have these 2 options: Akaso V50 X and GoPro HERO 5. Which of the two do you recommend? With which will I get the best video quality? 1000 thanks
Akaso
Of course the gopro will be better, but the AKASO does a decent job at 1/3 price.
That's true
What’s the video resolution on V50X, when you record a video at 4k?
I tried mine and it’s 1024x576 ...
I did that with image stabilization on and off. Also tried 2.7k and I got the same resolution.
Curious to know if GoPro is the same.
check the folder where the video was saved, I think you downloaded the preview version
Redskull That’s what I got from the RoadCam app. Are you able to check the resolution on your V50X?
I would like to know what we get when we record in 4K.
Just got somebody else confirming that when you download videos with RoadCam, the resolution is going to be smaller.
just a fyi, 4k is the resolution, so asking what's the video resolution when recording at 4k is like asking what's the Brand of the Iphone you just picked up.
You can't trust any companies marketing until you actually try it yourself, nice video Alex.
Yeah, very different results!
Plz suggest a best 4k action camera in 100 to 200 USD.
you just saw it in this video
Akaso V50X probably offer the best value for $100
@@RedskullPro thank you
I just bought an AKASO V50X, the manual says that it supports 64gb memory card, but I wonder if a 128gb card can be used in this. Great video, salutes!
Yes. Akaso v50x support 128gb card. Later i will try on 256gb card.

@@muhamadabshar1083 upgradable in term of what? I upgraded its lens, now use super wide lens, cost me 5usd
Just ordered after watching this video! Many thanks! Help for choosing a good sd card that will not cost actually more than the v50x itself? 128 gb Samsung evo select is mandatory or I can rely on the cheaper Samsung evo plus?
Hi, check the video’s description... I think I have a link to the sd cards that I use. Don’t get a cheap card, you will regret it
@@RedskullPro many thanks for your super quick reply. The 128gb costs almost like a second camera lol.. how much time can I record in 4k@30fps with 64gb? Do you think that a Samsung Evo plus (128gb) could be reliable?
@@RedskullPro Hey I just noticed that I replied from my other account. Is always me, Marco! I just found on the official akasotech.com/v50x instructions page 2 sc suggested:
1) SanDisk extreme pro (like you did)
2) Samsung Evo plus (the one I asked for)
By the way, the official amazon seller page talks only about the Samsung Evo Select (in stead of Plus).
Since I'm really on a budget I'll follow the guide and pick a 64gb Evo plus. Hopefully will work good as the producer says
Nice, should work than. I didn't personally tried that one but I tried other slower ones in the past and the sound was out of sync multiple times so I try using the extreme pro
@@RedskullPro many thanks for your precious help. I'll try and let you know how the SD will perform. I have found on some benchmark sites that shows that Samsung EVO Select and EVO Plus are actually the same SD. Select costs more because is an Amazon exclusive. The problems with some EVO Plus performance is due to non original products (very massive). I bought mine on official amazon, hopefully I'll get the right one.
Question:I have a beautiful condenser mic (BoYa m1). Do you think that a jack-usb adapter will make it work on the action camera or I need to buy the original mic from akaso? Many thanks
could you compare v50x to firefly 8se?
