I love action cameras in all shapes and forms! I'm always on the hunt for new, exciting, and most importantly budget friendly options. And here enters the OnReal 4K action camera! A camera that I had 0 expectations for but yet it crushed everything I thought it could do!
Thanks again to OnReal for providing me this camera for review I did not pay for it. However this is not a sponsored review so if the camera stink I'll tell you!

I recently bought sjcam sj8 pro. I been a fan of sjcam since sj4000 wifi but i went with this top model. My sj8 pro was terrible. Its obvious that they rushed the launch of sj8 line. My front lcd was installed so low... half of lower fonts were cut off. Even after lastest firmware upgrade which is 1.21 it was still very buggy. Changing mic volume would make mic not work till restarting tbe camera and it consistantly froze on me. I would stay aWay from sj8 pro till they ironed out all the bugs in future firmware upgrades.

Just got one of these from Amazon "Onreal store" (because of your review) and I will tell you this review is spot on! For the money this is a no-brainer... Solid feel build, nice touch screen, the stabilizer is amazing. Was planning on buying a feiyu spg gimbal... Just saved myself another $150! Arrived well packaged, super fast with Prime, and outstanding customer service - I accidentally ordered a wrong spare battery and they immediately sent the right ones free of charge. Answered all questions I had in timely manner. What else is there to ask for??. Except buying one more camera for my daughter !!!!! Again I am really happy I bought this. Using currently for skiing/ snowboarding, planning to use for water activities and general video stuff. 👍👍👍👍 thanks for the honest review everyday dad

@timsmotorcyclediary 6 жыл бұрын

The OnReal 4K is $106 and the Yi Lite is $100 at Amazon.com on November 29th. The OnReal 4K is way over-saturated and has a lot of pixelation with minimal motion which is not good. It's fine as a cheap budget camera but for $70 more, you can get a huge jump up in performance and quality with the Yi 4K. The Yi 4K is also true 4K and not interpolated. For budget conscious buyers, I'd recommend the Yi Dash Cam which is only $40 on Amazon.com right now. I have both the Yi Dash Cam and Yi 4K which replaced my GoPro Hero4 Silver.

@TheEverydayDad 6 жыл бұрын

I totally agree that there are better options out there but for $100 I think this is a great option. You can always "but for XXX more" your way up to a Hero 6. I'm definitely going to look in to more of the yi cameras (because I think they are great too). Do you like the dash cam or 4k better?

@timsmotorcyclediary 6 жыл бұрын

The 4K is much better so I use it as my main action cam on my motorcycle and for family events. I keep the Dash Cam in my car. With the low aperture it's great for filming at night. Going from the OnReal 4K or Yi Lite to the Hero 6 is $400 versus $70 more for the Yi 4K. That's a steal for an action camera with performance on par but clearing not matching the Hero 5. Amazon.com was even selling the Yi 4K for only $150 for 2 weeks leading up to Black Friday.
