I bought it as I wanted to easily shoot some footage while doing a course in film editing (Adobe Premiere Pro) and not wanting to heft loads of camera equipment around. The settings are simple to use, as is the touch screen and I guess the front screen is great for bloggers.
I have attached it to my mountain bike cycling in the forest, to my lurcher running wild and mounted it on a monopod and walked around with it — the image stabilisation is pretty good although I guess you would need a gimble if you wanted perfectly smooth footage, but for moving image and dynamic shots it works a treat. The spare battery is handy as two batteries will allow you to fill a 64GB memory card.
The Akaso Brave 7 LE’s compactness and quality build means its great just to have with you whenever you are out to catch those special moments or out of the ordinary events far better than you can on a phone.
Already recommended to others who are looking at getting one.
Can’t wait to use it travelling and create some amazing pictures and videos!
Brought for my son as he wants to be a you tuber and he loves i
So far it all looks good. Set up was easy enough and connecting via smartphone app all worked. Test video and photos look good
Good quality of pictures and video.
Battery could be last longer.
Sometimes camera can get overheat.
End of the day camera work fine and compare with higher expensive cameras on the market does the job.
A great camera for a fraction of the cost of another brand. Very happy with my purchase!
I purchased this product to record myself cycling to/from work. Camera is great and battery is good for my 15 mile cycle to work. I was sadly involved in two cycling accidents and this camera saved my a**.
I got this item for running and other sports that I do. It is really easy to use and with all the accessories it can be used it various different ways. Would recommend.
The camera is excellent for its purpose. Definately value for money.
Just love it everyone should have this camera for holidays
Used this in Egypt this year snokelling etc and for the kids. Very good
Easy to use, great little camera to get those underwater shots on holiday
It’s a very nice high quality finish and has so many features of a much higher price camera
Camera is used skydiving and giving coaching feedback so the image stabilisation is vital. The front screen is useful to ensure the right framing is set up before exit. I’ve also used it for scuba diving with the waterproof case getting excellent video and good underwater sound capture. It’s been a great little purchase
Great little camera for me to take fishing with me. The video footage is excellent. I try to catch the action of fishing on the fly.
Love the touch screen and easy to navigate! All the additional accessories are very handy!
Really enjoy the camera. Good picture for a budget camera. Could be better in low light but I guess you get what you pay for. Would recommend
Great balue camera with brilliant HD quality. Comes with a variety of attachments meaning you can always attach the camera correctly!
Wanted an action camera for a while. Choose Akaso as it appeared VFM. I wasn’t disappointed. As with many I couldn’t get the editing app to work, but after an update all seems good.
Can’t wait to try it when snorkeling on my next holiday.
This is a great alternative to others on the market.
Works great out of the box, on par with my go pro 9. Shame no quick attachment on the base, but can easily grab a screw on from Amazon.
GREAT VALUE ACTION CAMERA , GOOD BUILD QUALITY. GREAT FEATURES , AWESOME TIMELAPSE AND 4K VIDEO.
This can do everything a GoPro can for about half the price. Super easy to use and lightweight.
I like the instructions, they cover everything including how to use the remote. I also like how the control and menus work. The quality on the videos I’ve taken whilst walking my dog are really good. Have to say though I’m not keen on the front screen can’t see a use for that but that is my only negative comment and it’s just my view. I use it to take videos of my dog when we are out walking.
I wanted to upgrade from my basic action camera but still didn’t feel I could justify the cost of the mainstream brand.
I saw this, watched some reviews and thought it must be too good to be true for the money (but then that would have meant all of the reviews were wrong.)
I decided to give it ago and see for myself and I wasn’t disappointed. Simple to use and navigate.
Build quality is excellent, accessories galore and comes with two batteries and a charger.
Image and video quality is fantastic compared to what I was used to and for someone who just wants to record and enjoy holiday trips and days out, this provides excellent footage. The main test will be when we go on our regular safari game drive holiday early next year and it’s mounted to our car over rough terrain – an added benefit is that I don’t need to worry about the chance of rain and putting it inside it’s case.
I’m yet to try out the waterproof capacity without the case when swimming but to be honest, I’d probably use the case anyway for that added protection.
A word of advice though – don’t make the mistake I made initially. I watched some footage back on the camera and was dissatisfied with the sound and video quality. Once you view/download onto your phone, tablet or computer etc, all your worries will go away. Obviously the speaker and screen on the camera can only do so much.
I don’t know how Akaso have packed so much into something so small and kept the price down. Whilst those more professional than me may see the difference against top end models, 99% of people like me will just love this.
I like the compact size as it is very easy to carry around when I’m out and about. I tend to use the camera for nature shots and the video function for green screen compositing as the super wide choice is very useful when I have limited space.
Why pay more for GoPro when the Akaso does almost everything it does. The only difference I found was that you have to switch manually between the rear and front screen where on GoPro you don’t. If Akaso fixed this small glitch GoPro would have a serious contender to deal with.
Amazing little piece of kit with an array of accessories included. Bravo Akaso
bought this for a holiday that would involve lots of water play – very happy with picture quality and mic was better than I expected after reviews. Only one thing which was irritating was that pressing the remote with the underwater camera casing on, meant sometimes videos didn’t start to record and we lost some action 🙁
I wasn’t expecting amazing things but have been presently surprised!
Arrived well packaged with a premium feel. Comes with a range of attachments and accessories you normally pay extra for like waterproof housing etc. overall value for money is great it’s not go pro hero quality but it’s easily up there with the best for the price I’m very happy
Great little camera as an alternative to the go pro . Easy to use and even though I was worried at first about using it in the sea,the waterproof case didn’t fail . It takes a little getting used to the setting but other than that a good camera .
I have just booked a holiday to Thailand and want to record my time and experiences in the crystal clear waters and amazing scenery – so what better way than to buy an adventure camera?
Having owned four GoPros before, I thought I’d try a camera which was offered one-third of the price but had the same spec and most other features – hence the AKASO Brave 7 LE Action Camera. Initial unpacking was very similar to previous cameras – but with two batteries to start and a bunch of accessories thrown in. I did get a bit confused as the camera comes mounted on the box with what looks like a very useful flat surface mount 0 but appears to be permanently connected to the packaging.
All in all – first impressions are very good, and only time will tell if it can live up to the water and sand of a tropical beach!
very clear images in photos and video, can’t always see the screen easily underwater but not bad, a much better camera than the cheaper ones out there that look the same but that is it. Really pleased to be fair, set it up with the app and images to phone no problem. Nice bit of kit! Have recommended to others
Bought this for use with my bike. Came with all the pieces needed and works well
I am still learning how to use this but so far so good 🙂
I was so happy to use this for my first trip in Greece to take a good video of turtle and other water subjects. The camera was working very well and as it is a waterproof item, I did not worry at all while I was using in the water. Although, I was using the camera in water with the protective cover (which come with the product), and it gives a really good photoshops and videos that I was thinking of filming. It gives a dreamy aura and it also gives a clear photos and video shoot.
Did a lot of research. Found that feedback on the Brave 7 was poor regarding microphone which I was sad about as I like the larger memory. Looked at the se and was cheaper and for what I need seems to tick all boxes. Looking forward to seeing how it copes on a run on a selfie stick.
So far feels very good in hand, solid unit, great packing and accessories
Easy to use,front screen a useful factor,great picture quality.
Picture and sound quality are great. Overall great value for money.
Good product for the price. Struggles with low light, but that’s to be expected. Everything else is very good for the price.
As soon as you hold the camera you can feel how well made it is. Clear screens, easy interface, does exactly what it should.
I had a previous version from Akaso and really liked it but didn’t like the fact that it went in a case to make it waterproof. This one is waterproof without the case unless you want to go really deep. For me as a canoeist it is great as it works well with the remote control.
That brings me to my first gripe. I wish the remote control was waterproof. I have to put it in a clear dry bag to solve that problem.
My second gripe is that you can’t tell if it’s recording when the lens is facing you. The screen on the front is good and there is a little icon that shows it’s recording. But the previous model had a red flashing light that could be seen from further away both above and the front. I miss that.
However if that’s all I have to complain about it means it’s a really good bit of kit.
I would consider buying another one.
I’m going to be using the camera for motorbike riding footage once I’ve got the attachments stuck in the right place.
Found easy to set up and use, picture quality very good, fixed to helmet and worked perfect on MTB trails.
I chose this camera because I wanted 4k and the ability to invert the image as the camera is attached underneath the port wing of a QuikR microlight, others in the Akaso range do not have the option to be upside down, or if they do they don’t do 4k30fps.
Recording at 4k30fps with high quality each 4Gb file was 10 minutes of video. With a 64Gb file that means you would get 64/4 = 16 video files at 10 minutes each = 160 minutes or 2 hours 40. Depending on how efficiently it uses the card you may lose a little of that so maybe 2 hours 10?
The attached image of the aircraft landing was taken from live video recording 4k30fps without image stabilisation and the aircraft would have been moving at about 45mph; I took the image by exporting it from the video using iMovie on a MacBook. As you would expect detail is lost on the background as it is moving past at in excess of 60 feet per second and the camera is only operating at 30fps (so I may try 1080P120fps next time), but the plane in the foreground is detailed; the day itself was only about 7k visibility and overcast so the sky looks murky because it was!
Looking at the photo I’ll try image stabilisation next time as you can see movement on my passenger’s leg, and as the wing is also flexing slightly there is a slight blur on other aspects of the plane. I have noticed images are better on brighter days and this was very dull and it rained only minutes later.
Comparing it with my previous HD camera the image is a step up in quality, and given the tough operating conditions of being on a wing doing at times 90mph exposed to the elements I’m impressed with the camera.
Simple to use app works great with my phone image stabilisation works great and is as good as more expensive cameras picture and video quality is great touch screen works well and easy to use
I’m being honest this cmara it’s really good, quality without the case it’s , it’s waterproof without the case so you don’t need to worry about using the case. I recommend this product if you use it like a dash cam or sport camera 9/10.
Only thing it’s that with the case the quality reduce not big difference but less quality.
After a lot of research I decided to purchase the Akaso Brave 7 LE and Love it.
It included a firmware update that allows you to use an external Akaso microphone with the action camera.
The battery lasts for ages, the build quality is very good and the footage it takes is great.
Used on a family scuba holiday. Captured great memories. Fun to use whilst playing in the pool and sea too.
I really liked the number of accessories included with it. Made it much easier to decide how I wanted to fit it. I have used it on my bicycle handle bats, only downside is the wind noise but I’m a cyclist and it’s more for the image quality. Also used it for filming my invertebrates at meal time.
I bought this camera for our holiday. I was supposed to go for a Gopro but changed my mind due to the price. Overall it is excellent.
Unboxing it comes with a whole range of extras such as a spare battery – waterproof case, mounts for different activities.
I was drawn to it due to the dual screens. This makes it easy for blogging.
Image quality is excellent in good lighting. when the lighting is poor not so good – so bear that in mind.
I read that the sound does not work with the case on, but we did not find this. We got good sound quality even with the case on.
Image stabilisation seems good although I have not baseline comparison.
Overall for the price it is excellent and having the accessories and bits makes it an excellent buy
I bought this as a gift for my son who absolutely loves it. We took it on holiday and got some amazing pictures and videos!
Great camera as a starter for my 12 year old. Taken on holiday and to local pools. Connectivity is good to PC. Could do with a wrist band.
Fantastic pictures and video in bright sunlight, good image stabilisation and battery life, lots of accessories. However, picture quality becomes grainy in poorer lighting or indoors.
The AKASO Brave 7le is a great action camera, I’ve used it on my bike and as a body camera while doing security, the picturs/video are great and clear and easy to upload, the image stability was OK for my needs.
For a budget camera it is quite good.
I’ve managed to shoot some 4K videos in pool and the sea and we’re happy. Not as good as GoPro obviously, but Considering that this is a photo to camera between class it as decent.
This little camera is great value and easy to use. The app is okay and the live view is a couple of seconds behind but still worth it. I have it on a radio controlled car and the quality is brilliant. Easy to get the video off and lots of accessories are useful too.
We decided to get ourselves an action cam for our holidays for zip lining, sea kayaking, and as a easily portable video camera.
After researching many models we went for the AKASO Brave 7 LE and have been very happy with our choice. Easy to navigate, sturdy (accidentally dropped it onto concrete), quick postage, 2 screens for easy video.
Images are clear, video stable, decent battery life especially with 2 batteries included, and sound is good quality. Definitely going to be the first thing to pack for each trip
Amazing little sports camera at a fraction of the price compared with a go pro! Top quality images and fantastic recording quality! Simple and easy to use and comes with all the accessories! Very impressed with my purchase.
I took this camera to florida with me and it did a great job for a budget action cam. Very happy with it. Battery life was fine for what I needed and 2 battery’s lasted for the full 20 days with very light usage but still impressive
I wanted a cheaper alternative to a GoPro with 4K video recording and this camera provided the perfect solution! It’s a great camera and the two screens are very useful. I would recommend to anyone looking for a good value 4K action camera.
Purchased camera for an upcoming holiday, will mainly use it for water sport activities.
Haven’t recorded any footage yet but set up was quick and easy.
Have no previous experience with action cameras so can’t compare it to others but 1st impressions are very good, build quality good & easy to use.
Don’t think you can go wrong for the money
Compact packaging
Quick instructions + online full instructions
Came with all stated accessories.
Will update on quality once used
Was very disappointed with this action cam. I wanted to use it for filming walking trips out and about, the first issue was the battery life, it lasted about 20 mins per battery and that was short bursts of video. I also found that you cannot zoom in while the camera is recording which is something that would be needed if filming mountains etc.
UPDATE: The customer service from Akaso themselves has been exceptional (especially Jessica). They really could not have done more to improve my user experience with them. I would happily give a 5* for the customer service.
