AKASO EK7000 4K30FPS Action Camera - 20MP Ultra HD Underwater Camera 170 Degree Wide Angle 98FT Waterproof Camera with Accessory Kit - Silver

Wow, I’ve never had an action camera before, and there’s loads to choose from, so it was a bit of a gamble, but I’m so glad I opted for this! First off I was pretty shocked by the quality and all the stuff that came with it, I had thought for the very reasonable price it might be a bit cheap, so I was really surprised when I unpackaged it, it really feels like I’d spent more than I had, such a lovely presented and well packaged piece of kit with loads, and I means loads of attachments, which are also quality. Then I found it super easy to set up and transfer vids and pics to my iPhone, and the video quality is fantastic!! So I am so pleased after several hours of research on Amazon, reading all the good and not so good reviews? 100% I’m sure the higher end ones must be even more amazing, but as a first time user I’m honestly blown away.

Bought this to mount on my Electric Bike after a few close shaves with idiot drivers. Lots of different mounts supplied and easy to set up. I have it mounted on the handlebars. Video quality is very good as is sound, when out the housing. Very muffled when in waterproof housing, but for me, the video is more important than sound. Image stabilisation is good as is quality of images, both video and stills. Buy a well known branded Micro SD card, not a cheapo one. I have lots of SD cards for my DSLR, which work fine with it, but this camera didn't recognise some of the mainly the cheaper ones. I also like the lens in the camera. I took some videos of aircraft at my local air show on 6th and 7th September 2024. (Ayr, Scotland). Weather was glorious and while trying to track aircraft is tricky due to screen size, ( can be live viewed on phone with a slight lag), the images didn't wash out when panning across a setting sun. Batteries on 4k, 20MP setting last about 40 mins. Havent used the remote control yet. The only issue I had was that the ad says 2 batteries supplied. I got only on in the box, but after contacting AKASO direct, they sent me the battery charger and 2 battery pack for free and in only a few days. Great service. All in all, a great wee camera for the price.

I purchased this to use to get underwater footage of my father’s fish in his pond. I was unsure how effective it would be but thought it would be worth a try to brighten his day. It is brilliant, easy to use (pairing to phone was a bit fiddly), clear and the footage was bright, stable and amazing. I can’t recommend highly enough, especially at this price point.

Good quality, doesn't come with sd and colour was not as listed however picture quality is great and the other stuff does not bother me. Recommend this camera I use it for my motorbike helmet.

I bought the EK 7000 action camera as an affordable alternative to more expensive brands, and I’m seriously impressed with what it offers for the price. The image and video quality are crisp and vibrant, even in challenging light, and the wide-angle lens captures an incredible amount of detail. The included accessories were a nice surprise – plenty of mounts, a waterproof case, and spare parts to get me started straight away. The waterproof housing works flawlessly; I’ve already used it for some underwater shots, and the footage came out crystal clear. Battery life is also better than I expected – having two rechargeable batteries included means I can keep filming for much longer without worrying. The menu is straightforward to navigate, and the Wi-Fi connectivity makes it easy to transfer videos to my phone without extra cables. Overall, the EK 7000 is a fantastic action camera for anyone who wants great performance without breaking the bank. Highly recommended!

I was looking for an underwater camera to take on holidays in a few weeks, I plan on doing a fair bit of snorkelling. A friend of mine has a GoPro, however I was not looking at spending that amount of money on something that I might only use once. So I did a bit of digging around and come across the Akaso range, in the end I settled on the AKASO EK7000 Action Camera Floating Hand Grip Bundle which ticked all the boxes in what I was looking for, comes with floating handle and a case which has plenty of room for a number of items. Ordered the item on a Friday and was delivered the very next day, out of the box all items advertised and showing in the images were present, I saw on some reviews some items were missing which Akaso promptly sorted out for them. Fortunately in my case no need for this, I will say that the attachment screw for the floating handle might vary in design from image show, but that's neither here or there, still does job on the tin. Setting up the camera is relatively straightforward, I would recommend reading the instructions if this is your first underwater camera of any brand. The waterproof casing seems tough and pretty tight, opening the case is a little stiff but that's a good thing as it means it won't pop open easily whilst you are underwater. I used a small plastic lever like the ones you get in pc/phone repair kits as I didn't want to risk breaking it with my fat fingers. Took a few pictures around the house to test quality with the camera being both in and out of the case and then connected to the app to view and download, image quality seems pretty good for a camera that is in around the £50 range. The real test will be in a few weeks when snorkelling. Video image again is pretty good my only niggle is the constant like white noise hissing on the playback. I cannot comment on battery life properly as only used the camera for about 20 minutes in total whilst setting up and testing, but I still had over half battery left straight out of the box. A couple of reviews mentioned that their remote wasn't working when received, tested mine working perfectly in both modes again will see how this performs underwater. As mentioned you get a lot of accessories, I won't need to use them all on my holiday so will leave what I don't need at home, but it does mean I have space in the case to put other chargers and cables for other devices I will be taking on holiday which means it will all be neat and tidy in one place in my carry on bag and not just stuffed in the bag :). Overall I am very pleased with my purchase and what you get for the price paid for a starter action camera kit is pretty good value. Time will tell on how it will perform on holiday and I might attach it to my bicycle at a later date, I'll update review when back from my holiday and have tested it fully for the purpose intended

I purchased this camera with the intention of recording overhead video tutorials or review of items. The camera version that was on offer was the silver one which I purchased for £36. The box itself arrived not in the best of shapes, but all of the accessories and the camera itself arrived in an unused condition. Here are the good and bad points I noticed after using it for a few hours. The Good: 1. Great set of accessories and mounts for this camera, some of which my other version (Brave 4K purchased in 2019) doesn't have. 2. Two batteries are provided with this version with a dual charger. 3. The size is really compact. The Bad: 1. The quality of the video/pictures is absolutely terrible and extremely grainy, no matter what light you shoot in. I tried to adjust the settings to the max, but even so they were abysmal for something that is meant to be 4K at 30FPS. 2. The version I received still had/used a Micro USB port/cable! 3. Replacing the battery wipes out the date information, meaning you have to set it all back up again. 4. The LCD display quality isn't anything to write home about either. 5. There are many other negatives, but I think by now you get the point that this thing isn't great... Now, I also usually like to add images/video within my reviews to prove that what I'm saying isn't an exaggeration, or something far from the truth, but unfortunately I didn't save any. I was that offended with the quality of what this piece of junk takes that I reformatted the card before packaging everything back up for return. Unfortunately, you're not going to get anything decent, 4K-quality like video/images, which the price point is an indicator, but my common sense and better judgement were obviously non-existent at the time of ordering. Also, this version was first release in 2016 (which explains the micro USB port) so you might want to opt for something more up to date and of better quality.

I used the Akaso EK7000 for the first time today (October 5th), and overall, I’m impressed with what you get for the price. The build quality feels solid, the controls are simple and easy to get used to, and it’s lightweight enough to take anywhere. The waterproof case works well, and it comes with a ton of accessories and gadgets, which is great — though I wish there was more explanation on what each piece is for and how to use them properly. In terms of performance, the video quality is surprisingly good for a budget action camera. However, the biggest drawback is definitely the battery life. Out of the two batteries provided, one lasted about 50 minutes and the other around 40 minutes, which isn’t ideal if you’re planning to record for long periods. If the battery life were better, this would easily be a 5-star camera. As it stands, it’s a great affordable option for casual use or beginners who want to test out action cameras without breaking the bank.
