This is hands down the most helpful video on the GA300. Thank you for helping me and also the folks in the comments section. I've just picked one up for £65 to try as an moto vlog camera. It's not the right time for me to spend a lot of money as I don't know if I'll be disciplined to vlog on an ongoing basis.
mine stopped working after almost exactly one year after purchase, so warranty expired. fortunately, hohem support offered free repair on their shenzhen factory
I know many of those places! Not far from me! I think I will be ordering this camera.
Very good review your the first i have seen mounting it on a bicycle im going to try on motorbike with automatic pan 360
Yes, works great on the bicycle…BUT, I suggest a strong mount made out of aluminum or steel. The first time I tried it with a basic plastic mount it snapped off.
did it worked on you motorbike?
Hi,is the remote only compatible with the camera app witu it? Or can you use the remote for the phones own camera app?thanks.
Thank you...
At what frame rate did you film the 14mm footage ? It looks like 60fps.
All that footage was recorded and edited at 30 frames per second.
At last i found a man who know how to use the shellbox properly🔥🔥🔥
Thanks. Yes, this is a great low-cost solution to protect your smartphone in or on the water.
It was a good review. I ordered after this video. Price performance product
Thanks. I hope you are happy with your purchase. It’s a very good little camera considering the low price.
Great and very informative video, you answered all my questions 👍
Thanks for checking out my video. I’m glad you found it useful.
I really wish it had tracking, therefore i might get the Ohem MT-2 but its so bulky😢. I was to utilize the gimbal for a phone as well. Thanks great review!
Hohem M6
Thanks for the interesting review. I also have the same gimble. A good gimbal, however, when turned on, does not maintain the horizon very smoothly; it needs to be adjusted. Adjustment via an application on a smartphone allows you to set the horizon exactly, but each subsequent switching on, despite saving the results in the application, is again a lottery: a little, but it deviates. But so far there is nothing better or more convenient on the market for GoPro in terms of miniature size and functionality.
you might want to reset the device by pressing a button inside a hole near two USB charger ports. use paper clip and hold the button pressed for 5-6 secs
Thank you.
Great review, very helpful. Thanks
Thanks for checking out my review video.
great review thank you!
You are most welcome.
Thanks for you video!
Thanks for watching.
Good clarity for such a small camera.
Yes, one of the best action cameras (at this price point) that I have ever tested.
how is it compared to hohem isteady mobile+ ?
I'm sorry, but I have not used that specific Hohem gimbal, but I have used other Hohem gimbals with action cameras and they perform very, very well.
ur hella chill
Hi do you have any videos on how to use this camera? I bought this, it works, but I can't connect the WiFi and the files are so big I cant do anything with them? Thanks
What do you want to do with the video files? Edit them or just view them? If you want to edit them on a computer, take the micro SD card out of the camera and insert it into a card reader on the computer to transfer files. If you just want to view the videos, connect the camera to a TV or monitor using an HDMI cable.
looks like an akaso brave 7le.....only rebranded.
It quite possibly is. There seems to be a lot of ‘rebranding’ with these Chinese made action cameras.
Hi, Can this gimbal (Smart X Pro) work with Samsung S24 Ultra phone with Commuter series OtterBox case? Thanks,
Sorry, can’t say for sure as I’ve only tested this gimbal with iPhones. It probably would work with a Samsung, but the Otter case may be too bulky and I’m not sure if the app is Android compatible.
Detailed Review of the product.specially gimbal modes and their functions.😊
Thanks!
Добрейшего здравичка. Подскажите пожалуйста, какую карту памяти нужно брать для этой камеры?
Hello And Good Day. I Have The Wolfgang GA200 But Looking To Get The GA300 Because It Comes With A Mic Which Is Very Much Needed. Thanks For Review 😊
Yes, having a plug-in microphone greatly improves the audio quality.
eu gostei, comprei um dessa marca.
Can you advise on how to transfer the files to a PC or point me in the direction of the proper video? Thanks!
There are two methods to transfer files to a PC. Method 1, use the included micro USB cable and plug the camera into a USB port on the computer. Now you can view or move the files to your computer. Method 2, remove the micro SD memory card from the camera and insert it into your computer’s built-in card reader. If your computer does not have a card reader you can use an external card reader that also plugs into a USB port on the computer.
Hi Wayne. If you had to choose between the GA 300 and GA 400 and the price was nearly the same, what would you choose? Thanks
These are both good cameras, but with different features. The GA300 is made of plastic, shoots good video, has a front facing view screen and records great audio thanks to it's external microphone feature. The GA400 is made of metal and is much more durable and it's also waterproof without a housing, but lacks the front facing view screen, and it DOES NOT support an external microphone so the audio is not very good. So, it really depends on what features are important to you. However, a good alternative that combines all of these features is the Wolfang GA420. It's metal, waterproof, front view screen and you can use an external microphone with it. Check out my review: th-cam.com/video/G3QtnECGCoc/w-d-xo.html
@@ExploreVideo-cr3eh Thanks for the feedback. Both the GA300 and GA400 are on a nice sale, that's why I was looking at them. The GA 420 is 20 bucks more expensive...

Can you fit a wireless mike?
The mic input on this camera is USB micro. I do not know of any wireless receivers that connect using that connection.
@@ExploreVideo-cr3eh thank you..
What GoPro version are you using in this video? I have GoPro Hero 11 is it possible to pair in this device?
I’m using a GoPro Hero 8. I have not tried the Hero 11, but it’s my understanding that this gimbal will pair with all current GoPro cameras.
iphone 12 pro max or iphone 12 pro?
Ah, good question…. My phone is actually an iPhone 12 Pro Max, which measures 3.07x6.33x0.29 and it fits easily into this Shellbox case.
Thank you
@@primayanuar Thanks for the question. I actually bought that iphone used and assumed it was the 12 Pro. I did not even know there was a 12Pro Max version, so when I did some research, I realized it was the larger model.
Is possible to change lends mode...as a wide...macro... ?
I can tell that camera really is not a good camera, I also would not recommend it either due to out of sync audio and horrible video quality
Ya, this camera was a big dissapointment!
Lepiej kupić starszą, używaną GoPro niż wierzyć, że takie chińskie śmiecie ją zastąpią. Szkoda czasu i pieniędzy.
Here's a translation : "It's better to buy an older, used GoPro than to believe that such Chinese garbage will replace it." Interesting point. Yes, GoPro's are great cameras with lots of high-end features, but that does come at a higher price. I'll admit the Wolfang GA300 is not a perfect camera, but considering the low cost, this is a very good beginner or second camera that does a decent job recording good video and quality audio. I have reviewed many Chinese 'garbage' cameras and this is one of the better ones.
Hi mate, good review. I've reviewed more than 50 action cameras on my channel, most of the SJ cams and Akaso's and lots of others, but not many the last couple of years. The video plays on TH-cam at max 1080 so it's hard to judge 4K quality. Did you upload rendered at 4K? Just wondering why my PC is only showing max 1080? Also, the IMX 386 is a very old sensor and I can't find any info saying it's capable of native 4K 60 fps? Most of these cheapos are interpolated 4K? Any idea please? I've been offered one for review, free of course, and as I have a house full of cameras I'm wondering if it's worth having. PS Looks like you live in a fantastic location!
Thanks for checking out my review. No, I do not render in 4K. Unfortunately my main camera ( Canon camcorder) that I use for all the intros, extras, unboxing, product tour etc. only shoots in HD, so until I can afford a good 4K that’s the way I’ll be doing my reviews. And, yes… you are correct… most of these inexpensive action cameras are not capable of true 4K60. I believe it is all done through interpolation, hence my comments about ‘soft’ images recorded at that frame rate. There seems to be a lot of hype around 60fps. I usually tell people that unless you need slo-motion, there really is no need to shoot at 60. For general all-around videos 30 looks great.
Hey mate, thanks for the quick reply. I'm just sat here working on my latest two TH-cam uploads! And yes, there has always been to much hype about mega pixels etc. I do some action sports, mostly flying, and good 4K with EIS I think is useful for that. I have a waterproof SJCam SJ8 that I was sent. £200+ at the time. Genuine 4K 30 fps, native waterproof but awful audio so SJCam didn't produce it and came out with the SJ9 instead. I have seen one rendered 4K GA920 video on here and it was very poor so I'm not saying yes to this one. I have reviewed a couple of Wolfangs amongst the 50 odd cameras I've reviewed and they were nothing special. I did a lot for Akaso. One review has 600K TH-cam views. The Brave 6 was very good. 3 times they offered my a Brave 7 but in the end I never got it. Had enough of cheap cameras. Do quite a lot with RC planes now. One of those has 50K views but the whole TH-cam thing is getting much harder! Where do you live? NZ? Canada. Looks fantastic. @@ExploreVideo-cr3eh

Accsoon SEE
Very good review, thank you. Considering this product was introduced in 2021 and is supposed to receive firmware updates, I find it amazing that no update has addressed the lack of switching from front to back cameras directly from the gimbal rather than having to stop recording and switch from the app.
Great video Wayne. How is the quality of the photo or video compared to a GO Pro that works underwater?
The newest phones and GoPro models all shoot excellent UHD video, so quality wise they are both equal, however I’d give the phone the edge when it comes to useability because of it’s large view screen.
Funny. My name is wayne jennings too from West coast of Ireland, Galway. 😂😂
Well, Wayne, nice to hear from you. I am Canadian, but have visited Galway a few years back. It is a very picturesque harbor town. While I was in Ireland I did some sea kayaking in Dingle bay and put together a little video.. Please check out my video from my other channel: th-cam.com/video/DqJ4Gy-rPys/w-d-xo.html Cheers -Wayne
Love it Kool
Thanks. For the amount of money it cost, it performs really good.
The best review of this camera I have seen - many thanks
Thank you!
@mattwuk - Yes, used for a solid 3 plus hrs on 720p 60fps last week. I'm definitely pleased I bought this. Used 2 batteries in that time. Mounted on a helmet chin mount... perfect for the motorbike journeys I have planned this year with the Motorbike group.
Ya, not a bad little camera considering it’s low price.
EIS on? Really?
Ya, sucks doesn’t it? I’m not really sure why they even bother with EIS on these entry level cameras because most of the time they really don’t make a difference.
do it works without battery, but with power bank by USB?
Yes, it can be powered from a power bank.
Can it bear payload of 173 gm?
All I can tell you is the instruction say it has a payload capacity of 150 grams. I’ve only used it with my GoPro Hero 8 which weighs 125 grams.

Gracias ya la pedí por Amazon iba a pedir la izeeker ia100 pero vi este video y me decidí por esta
Translation: "Thank you, I already ordered it on Amazon. I was going to order the izeeker ia100 but I saw this video and decided on this one." YES, the Wolfang GA300 is definitely a much better camera than the iZEEKER iA100, for sure.
It looks good.
Yes, at this price point it is very good.
Sound quality is really great. What is the range from the transmitter to the microphones?
Yes, I was really happy with the sound quality. Moman claims a ‘Line Of Sight’ recording distance of 150 meters (492 ft.) I did not test it that far, however I did get excellent results when I was about 50 meters (164 ft.) away from the camera.
Yes, your voices were very clear and no interfaces from external noise like wind or birds. Very good buy.
Thanks for the review, In your opinion which is the best budget action camera so far? And do you prefer izeeker to wolfang GA420 ?? Regards
I wanted to know the same thing lol
I prefer the Wolfang GA420, BUT my new favourite budget action camera is the SURFOLA SF530. I’m working on that review right now… stay tuned.
or the xr ?
This is the only AOCHUAN gimbal I have used, so cannot comment on those other models.
why is it better than xe?
Not familiar with XE.
