Is this the best action camera on the market right now? Is it a true Gopro Killer well, let's check it out
What's up guys been here from authentic?
This is the new ye to 4K action camera from Xiaomi
It boasts some better features than the gopro 4 and it's actually a lot [cheaper] starting with the design
It's very similar to the Gopro however. It has a built-in screen
I still can't believe gopro the hero4 black top of the line model. It costs five hundred dollars
It doesn't have that built-in screen you have to pay an extra 80 bucks for that
And it [makes] it extra bulky the cheaper silver model has the screen built in but not as good specs
I don't understand with the Yi to it not only includes the Built-in [touchscreen]
But it's a larger higher-resolution display
and more responsive to the touch with better intuitive controls in my opinion the other sweet bonus is the [built-in]
Standard tripod mount this is essential moving on to the main tech specs. It's a wide-angle
155 Degrees F 2.8 lens it can shoot 4K video at 30FPs
buttery smooth 1080p at 120Fps or super slo-mo 720p at
240 frames per second
Battery life man, oh man battery life. It's fantastic
I really hate to rag on Gopro
But this was always my biggest complaint with their cameras the battery life was
Terrible now finally with this ye to it comes with a larger fourteen hundred million powers battery many people have ran tests and it lasts
At least fifty percent longer ye
Themselves boasts almost double battery life, and in my experience it really does last a long time now. Here's a few other features
I like it boots up super fast it is time lapse photo and time lapse video mode it can shoot looped video
perfect for Dash cams and such for
Slow-motion you can actually shoot in two different ways
One Via regular video mode with the high frame rate selected or go to the slow motion mode and it will auto slow down that
Footage for you, no need for retiming in post. It's nice to have the option there's a built-in electronic stabilizer
This was awesome in concept though
I think the execution falls a bit short you can't use it while shooting 4k only in certain resolutions
And when it is turned on I feel it doesn't work that well
The Wi-Fi app is pretty legit lots of controls very responsive low latency of video feed
Remote viewing of your video files load Super fast. Thanks to its dual band Wi-Fi
It can do over-the-Air firmware upgrades and on this note
I've already received two firmware updates each time it came with some really helpful features that I appreciate like auto rotation
This is huge for my selfie stick scooter sessions also
New is a flat color profile better for color grading and post now this all sounds almost too good to be true
What are the negatives well let's go back for [a] quick unboxing not much actually comes with it
No extra accessories or anything like gopro. They do offer a waterproof case that costs about 13 bucks, not bad
They also have extra batteries super cheap compared to go Pro
Only a couple bucks each and what about all those cool?
Accessories that go pros have well if you buy that housing case it has the gopro mount on there so you can easily purchase one
Of those massive gopro accessories kit to like this one. I got from Gearbest
It's only 17 bucks, and it comes with a ton of different mounts straps clips and adapters. It's fantastic now
You can attach your 4K action cam to just about anything
So back to the original question is this the new Gopro Killer is it the action Cam champion?
Well, I'd say for right now. Definitely. Yes, the price is just so cheap compared to the gopro
It's only two hundred and fifty dollars now remember the new Gopro is supposedly coming out later this year
But is it going to be able to beat this?
I'm not sure for now the yi to 4k action cam is definitely the winner if you're interested [in] checking it out
