Action cameras are really popular nowdays and they getting more powerful by the day! This Eivotor camera is capable of recording in native 4k in 30fps!
I highly recommend you to watch my Video Review of this product first, as it includes all the details, including the underwater test! But if you don’t have time or mood for the video, then check below for a quick list of features and stuff.

Pros
- Can record in native 4k (3840×2160)
- Comes with 100% waterproof case (up to 30m or so)
- Has a nice LCD screen on back (can also view recorded clips)
- Can be used as PC webcam (no driver needed, works with skype, FB ..etc)
- Comes with 2 batteries
- Comes with all the standard action camera attachments (belts, clips ..etc)
- Cheap for a 4k camera (cheaper than most 1080p cams)
Cons
- Even tho camera has WiFi and app for phones, it doesn’t work! (on iPhone app crashes instantly and on Android it just hangs)
- Image quality is not exactly worthy of 4k. Even tho it does about 38000kbp/s, but it’s not as clear as my 1080p Sony handycam which only does 26000kbp/s. Just remember, resolution is not the most important thing when it comes to video quality, neither is the bitrate.
Conclusion
As you can see, the Cons list is very small. Personally I never use the Wireless thing on cameras anyway, so it’s not that important to me, but can come in handy if you place the camera somewhere and would like to see what camera sees .. it can be annoying setting up a camera without knowing what it sees!
This camera is super cheap tho, it’s cheaper than most 1080p cameras, yet it delivers better quality than most 1080p cameras, but as said, quality could be better and i’ve seen better 1080p cameras, like my 5-6 year old Sony handycam which has crystal clear quality (it costs 6-8 times more tho).
I still find this to be really good action camera, it has a decent microphone too, however it’s rather useless when it’s in the waterproof case as it blocks most sound. I don’t think any action camera can do that, but I’d fix this by adding a feature so that the camera can use your smart phone’s microphone to record audio! It would be quite cool.
Anyway considering the super cheap price of this camera and decent 4k quality, I think it’s a good choice!
