After using it for a week I'm more than happy with the footage taken during in daylight
Bought this to fit to my cycle helmet after one too many near misses. For the price I wasn't expecting a top of the range camera, and to be honest it isn't. However, for the purposes of recording my journey to and from work every day it fits the bill perfectly. After using it for a week I'm more than happy with the footage taken during in daylight, and pleasantly surprised at the quality of recordings taken at night too. Okay, so if you cycle down a near pitch black cycle path you won't record much, but down well-lit streets or on the road it was more than adequate. The camera itself is lightweight, but can look a little bulky when attached to a helmet and inside it's waterproof casing. On the plus side I've already had car drivers who appeared to be about to jump red lights suddenly slow and stop when they spot the camera on my helmet. Operation is simple and straightforward, which is handy as the instructions, while basic, are printed so small that you might struggle to actually be able to read them. Coming with a mass of attachments it would have been nice to have had better instructions as to what each one could be used for. Thankfully Google came to the rescue on that front. The only real downside to this camera, in my opinion, is the battery life. So far I've been lucky to get just over an hour's use out of each battery before they need recharging. Maybe this is why you're given two though? Final thoughts then. For the price, this does exactly what I want, at a quality I'm happy with. If you want a cheap, cheerful camera that won't break the bank, and you won't be too upset about breaking if the action becomes too rough, then give this one a go.

Great Camera Great Price
AKASO have made a really decent camera with the Brave 8, they have resolved the audio issue's the 7 had, the video qaulity is great, stills can be shot in 48M, the camera has a front screen, is water proof and is solidly built. As always the camera comes with a box full of accessories, it comes with 2 batteries, a dual battery charger and a remote control. I would definitely recommend the - BRAVE 8

A great piece of equipment that provides quality for the cost.
I've been after an adventure camera for quite some time, mainly for road use and occasionally rock climbing. But with GoPros costing a few hundred, I was always put off with buying one. With the recent increase in various adventure cameras that are sub £100 or even as low as £40, I was curious how well they fair in comparison to the GoPro camera and just as curious to see how well they perform in the first instance. I chose to try the AKASP EK5000 mainly due to positive reviews and decent price point. I thought at first it may just be coincidence that the reviews were generally positive but I was quite pleasantly surprised. That said, there are point to be improved so I'm going to list some of the pros and cons I have discovered with the camera so far (1 week).ProsFeels decent, though the plastic body may put some people off, the item has a nice weight and does appear to be of decent quality.A great variety of additional bits for whatever activity you are doingThe app is pretty good, simple but good. It allows you to real time monitor the live feed with only a slight delay, change recording resolution, change mode and even download pictures and videos to your phone.Picture resolution is pretty good, the main let down is the lens quality, but it is still very clear.Case works well and has kept the camera dry in the rain.ConsCan't charge the battery out of the device, though you can get (additionally) a dock to charge them.States it does 60fps at 720p, though the device does not seem to say so in the settings. I can't decide yet whether this is just a OS error or the camera does not do 60fps.Instructions are quite basic, more of a 'quick start' sort of manual, though it does offer several languages.It records in 10 minute segments; there may be a way to change this but I have yet to find it. I get that this may not be a con for some but it can be annoying over time.Microphone suffers terribly in the wind and is greatly reduced in the case, but this is expected.So to conclude, for the price you could do a lot worse. This camera offers a decent amount of functionality and produces good quality video with audio.

Junk. Touch screen changes settings on its own in water unit gets too hot when trying to download.
The unit looks good and the build quality acceptable, the menus are ok once you have “fiddled for a while “. The unit takes an eternity to download and convert 4k to phone and great for keeping you warm in winter because the unit gets extremely hot, worryingly hot. and eats the battery whilst downloading. Don’t expect to down load more than 3 or 4, 3 minute videos as the battery will be flat you have to start again . I have not found a way to get it to do a longer recording, they seem all to be 3 minutes long, the file structure is awful, trying to find which video is which is nearly impossible.There seems to be no waterproof case available to purchase to fully encapsulate the device when in the water, if you want to go deeper, the £50 cameras have one included from other manufactures?????but do not fit this.When in the water the water tends to affect the touch screen change the settings on the device, many times during our holiday my wife went snorkelling with the camera only to find when she got back settings had changed and she recorded nothing, only way we found to use was to turn on the small screen on front of camera, but then you cannot compose your shot on main screen. If we had not been on holiday when the return time was still available, this would have gone back without hesitation. Be wary what you want this for before you buy, we got stung with a camera not fit for purpose. Has been n drawer since not even managed to download the videos we did manage to take. Basically ruinös an expensive holidays as we cannot see our videos. Disappointed and angry to be honest.
