BOBLOV A22 32GB Body Camera, 1080P HD BodyCam with OLED Screen to Playback, 180° Rotatable Lens, Portable Body Camera with Audio, Support 4 Hours Recording for Office Meeting/Travel/Walking Pets
A good little Spy-Cam’ light weight’.. Good images’..Can hide easy in Desk pen holder …Just handle gently’..Quiet’ darken function for screen’ and IR options excellent for anonymity’ standard’s 2.5″ high!..Just get used to the buttons and functions before use!..(Great) bit of kit’!
I bought this to use while out walking the dog in case another dog attacked him I would be able to prove which dog started it in case of an issue. There seems to be a few aggressive dogs out lately.
I wanted a small light device, easy to wear and with a good battery life and went for this model.
I had issues with the camera supplied but Boblov support support (see below) resolved the issue promptly and to my satisfaction – thank you very much Grace/Angela.
The Positives:
– its small and light – you forget you are wearing it
– its easy to wear – I just clip it to my fleece.
The clip is strong. I have never had an issue with it falling off even when bending over (to pick up what dogs do).
– reasonably unobtrusive – there is a front facing screw point that stands out a bit. You can over it with black tape.
– The battery does indeed last a very long time – 10 hours seems accurate – I don’t have to keep charging or find it empty.
– The 32GB memory card holds a lot of footage in 5 minute chunks and then overwrites the oldest when finished.
– The slider can be used to turn on and start recording with one press – so you can turn on easily
– You can change the camera incline angle so it suits the angle of your cloths – e.g. not just filming sky/ground
The Negatives (bare in mind the cost of the camera for this):
The video footage is OK/good in good light – could be better, its good for the size/cost/battery life.
I would have paid more for a better camera but if you just want it for security as I did then its perfectly OK – not like a phone recording though as the colours are not so good.
Its not that good in low light conditions – even with the night camera function. Anything over than a few feet away is not visible. As soon as the light starts dipping the quality drops – again I would have paid more for better.
By the way, remember to remove the small plastic film over the lens – its hard to spot that it has it!
Overall I am very satisfied with the camera as it works well for what I wanted it for – but more impressed with the excellent support I received when I had issues with the Camera.
I had an issue where the camera was not saving some of the file correctly and they couldn’t be viewed.
I sent an email to the support team regarding this. Boblov support (Grace/Angela) responded to emails promptly (each time within day) and worked with me to try to resolve the issue.
Eventually it turned out the fixes did not work and Boblov sent me a new camera directly.
This process was hassle free and convenient for me. Well done Boblov support.
Any product can have issues, but the excellent support I received when things went wrong means that I would buy from this company again.
Used this item a few times and the on, off camera control has broken already, very disappointing.
George,
After contacting the suppler the Camera was quickly replaced with a new one that is working fine,
Happy once again, done with and no hassle.
Thanks
George
Great item great footage the mic is sensitive lot of rustling great play back night vision is good easy to use got to sit and play get to know it great all round better than the one i had for security
A little expensive, but overall a great product and you get what you pay for. Great service thanks. Easy to use and picture/video quality, is very good. Thanks.
I wanted a modestly priced mini camera/cctv device to place on the inside window sill to video who was playing “postman’s knock” at my front door. i.e. knocking on my door and running off, so I could present video evidence to them/parents/police. I don’t have home broadband so wifi devices were not an option. The device is perfect with easy to follow instructions booklet. I have run two sessions of 3 to 4 hours videoing. There is still a quarter of the battery left so I know I can get well over 4 hours videoing without needing to charge. I am amazed at the clarity on the small screen which clearly shows my gate, who comes by/to my door along with clear audio despite being on the inside window. Playback is easy, as is protecting chosen files and deleting chosen file options. I only need to record when I am in the house because that it is when the door knocking is irritating. So now can see benefits of the bodycam when out and about with dog, hiking and general travelling etc. Not got a computer but want to see if I can get video files transferred to tablet which is my next goal. I know I selected the right piece of kit for my initial needs and am well pleased with this bodycam. The charging cable is short. Comes with SD card, charging cable and small instruction booklet and mine had some charge in the device on arrival. Well pleased as it does what I wanted it to do and can see lots of other uses for it now.
Expensive but great investment if your in secuirty or policing, When recording starts, the person infront can see themselves being recorded so it lets them know they are being recorded without telling them really good deterrent in secuirty nightlife dealing with drunks and aggression for evidence footage
The camera is a great little bit of kit to use. Nice and easy to set up.
We had a slight issue with ours and had to have an exchange and i must say that the customer service we recieved from the team was 1st class. There was no arguing, as you get with some, absolutely no delay in sending a replacemnt out. Brillia
It’s easy to use. Simple to download videos to your laptop. I’m unable to vouch for the night vision or motion detection. Just use it when out and about or on the bike. Works well enough and it’s a slide of one button to start recording!
Easy to use and to setup. Being able to see what you are filming with the built in screen is a bonus.
You get excellent 100% service from Customer Service and from a company you can trust.

From opening the box to trying it out, this little camera has already impressed me. It’s easy to use the menu and navigate through the options. I have arthritis and my symptoms are beginning to show, but so far the buttons / controls have not caused me any problems.
The instruction booklet is clear, concise and well illustrated, which is ideal whether you are new to body cams or an experienced user.
The screen is impressive, as the clarity and size of the images are great even before making adjustments.
The 180 Rotatable lens allows you to swivel from what I call “forward mode” to “selfie mode”.
Files are easily deleted directly on the camera or by connecting to a computer via USB.
There is also an option to protect the files on the SD card.
I do have another BOBLOV camera which I only use during the colder months as I wear it on my jacket.
I look forward to using this camera all year round as it is small and light enough to wear on a t-shirt without pulling too much.
An all round practical and convenient addition to my growing selection of body cams.
Great little device that does its job as it says “on the tin”. Done a few test recordings – and I’m very pleased with the audio and video quality. Looked at the website – and it seems they are quite a well established company. Thank you very much. I will feel safer going out in the future. Seller Recommended.
The price and the quality are great. I have only had it 2 days but super easy to use. Good quality and discreet.
I looked around for ages and this is by far the best for my price budget. The display is great and can be connected to a pc tablet or TV.
It comes with a large enough sd card to keep you going.
Great for personal security which is why I bought it with antisocial behavour going on. I feel far safer with this and forget its even there.
The rotating camera is great to angle for on your belt or top. If you wanted you could even put a cord through it and wear it round your neck.
Brilliant stability of image as many don’t have stabilisation . Lights and display on or off depending on how discreet you need to be.
I cant reccomend it enough.
I had a problem with the SD card, with the first camera I received, the people at customer service were extremely helpful and they sent me a replacement very quickly. I cannot recommend Boblov highly enough, and would like to wish them my highest praise, and a great big THANK YOU.
his was easy to use very impressed.my wife and i have been useing these cameras for cycling they are super clipped onto jacket easy to down load onto laptop my wife loves hers.
