- Have you ever seen a 15$ GoPro clone and wondered how bad it really is? I just bought a Cheap Chinese GoPro clone and compared it to a GoPro Hero 4. I also took it apart!
Since I am a video editor and camera nerd I never looked for the "cheapest" cameras on the market. Yet when I saw an AD for a 15$ 4k Ultra HD action camera I had to find out how bad this actually was. And to my surprise, I wasn't surprised at all.
Watch me take apart this cheap Chinese GoPro clone!

If it's too good to be true... it usually is hahaha! Great video :D
Well. I was surprised how cheap legit GoPros are these days! :D
2 commnet only?
Given its price, the fact that it starts up to begin with is amazing.
Hahah, true 😅
He works for go-pro
Haha, naming the product 4k ultra HD is devilishly clever.
By the way, really cool to see a Swiss tech channel, lässig :) Your production value is insane for a channel that's seemingly just been stomped out of the ground. And you're a charismatic presenter! I like it, keep it up.
Ho ja, so lässig.
Thanks, yeah this channel is here to stay and not go anywhere. So, stay tuned for more!
Funny, maybe. But that's also against U.S. laws --- i.e.; *FRAUD by association.*
Yeah it's probably illegal here as well but they definitely not care about US law 😅
Would you ever consider buying a "too cheap to be good" product on the internet?
This saved me some money and taking it apart was fun watching :)
I'm glad I could save you some money :)
The fact I bought this five years later for £1.25 is insane
SAME
I can confirm said in this video. Also a while back earlier this year I manage to snag-up an old original GoPro hero1 for only $17. The interesting thing was that the seller was mainly selling it cause he found it hidden in his closest and he literally had no idea how to use it. But it's still a decently good camera as far as what you expect from GoPro. Since this was one of the earliest first gen/iteration of the GoPro hero line it didn't have a LCD display screen and no WiFi broadcasting.
Oh yeah I remember my first GoPro. What a shit show! But back then this was the future! 🙈
This certain action Cam is a rebranded sports dvc. Many brands use this shell
Good to know! Thanks!
The Go PRO Hero 4 cameras on ebay are much more, more like 150.
At the moment of recording I've got cheaper listings (see screenshots in Video). Maybe just observe the prices for a few weeks and as soon as a chaper listing drops buy it.
I paid $60 for my GoPro Hero 4. Then one of these cheap cameras because it didn't come with any accessories. So now I have a housing and adapters for 23 bucks where is if I would have bought them individually would cost me twice that much!
hell ya. Subscriber 41. Your accent makes this video so much better. I could listen to you talk all day. Great video as well. Hilarious.
Welcome to the Club I guess :)
In this case whatch out for livestreamsl 😅
It's pretty worth considering it works it has tons of accessory is waterproof and pretty tough and all that for 15$ it's worth if ur tight on money and wanna have evidence when someone crashes in you.
I would not trust this camera to survive a crash at all. Better get a true dash-cam.
Thanks for sharing this, there's definitely a lot of bad gopro clones out there but there's also good ones like the SJCAM 4000 which I used for so many years
I will take a look into this! I also wanted to create a Video to the YI4k
Imagine shooting your wedding with this camera?
That would be unfortunate
@@GreenBoxMedia XD
Lupeta kamera nije losa ok solidna za ove pare best camera
good stuff. So 4K Ultra HD is the brand 😂😂😂😂😂. I was wondering how they would explain that one. I'd imagine the camera is cmos crap and wouldn't expect anything better. I would like to see a still photo tho just for curiosity's sake. Good review and insight.
it's a rebranded sj4000 i think you can use original firmware and upgrade it and you will get normal sj4000
Hi. I am new to the go pro world and will love your advice on getting an affordable and good go pro to begin with. Thanks
Happy to help!
my mom bought that camera for my birthday and when I test the camera I see that it does not record in 4k and I feel bad for my mom that I spend a lot of money buying it and that they scammed her 😔
Oh no 🙈
_4K_
⭕ Doubt
Great video man. Enjoyed it 👌🔥
Haha thanks men! :)
What is the reason for the poor quality picture ? Is it the sensor, lens or poor construction or some adjustment at the factory ? I have a $25 camera and the picture quality is much better than this. I did buy it in a shop and not off the internet, could there be a connection here ? Adrian. UK/England 2023
With this specific product, it's just the ancient and low-spec sensor and probably not too good plastic lens.
Thanks for that ! Is it actually an old product that has been packaged to look more 'attractive' or just using up old stock parts ? I suppose there's always someone in business willing to buy this sort of thing to sell to someone who may not be knowledgeable about such things !@@GreenBoxMedia
Not everybody can afford an overpriced GoPro
Absolutely, that's why I said buy a second hand one instead. I just checked ebay, and I can find listings of GoPro Hero4 Cams for as little $64
GoPro HERO 4 Black Edition 4K Action Camera Camcorder= C $143.32. Why are you lying???
Do periodic checks and you will find cheaper ones.
Good to know, loved the unboxing and the info about price on EBAY thanks!!
No problem you are welcome!
To be fair its angle of view 90 degrees gives a wide angle without the crazy fisheye distortion you see once you hit around 100 degrees.
I bought a couple of similar ones to this because I knew they were 90 degree and not the advertised 120..
Both were crap and reminded me of shaky video quality you use to get back 15 years ago on a VGA webcam.
Sensor was tiny like the kind found on a cheap spy watch, hopeless in low light and very bright light, there seemed to be no auto control over the exposure, I'm assuming the iso was set to as sensitive as possible meaning bright light would be totally washed out and lower light would be extremely grainy.
The only half decent thing was the rear LCD screen
I mean lets be honest. Cheap cameras were and never will be good, there is a reason a well engineered sensor costs a bit more than 15$
@@GreenBoxMedia Agreed
You can use it while driving... Don't need quality..
Well, except when the people doing so realize that the impact erased the last recording. (I had e-mails about that in my inbox already)
oh jeez I wish I'd seen this vid a week ago, just got a similar one from China and it is complete garbage, already snapped two of the plastic lugs off the fittings, can't get any decent resolution for love nor money yet it says it is 4k, box says up to 64gb storage supported but instruction book says 32gb, ended up throwing away several microsd cards that it screwed up. Wifi hardly works at all so yeah, don't buy just save up for a proper GorPro
Oh, nooo so sorry to hear this... Thanks for sharing!
@@GreenBoxMedia No worries my fault for getting sucked in to the flashy advertising. I recommend just using a smartphone and as a side note, I bought a decent little digital camera about 12 years ago and then spent more than the cost of the camera for the underwater housing and it still works great though on it's third battery. Cheers and all the best, keep up the good work
Is Gopro Hero 9 dropping price? Just asking.
GoPro 9 dropped in price when the GoPro 10 came out, and it will most likely drop again when the GoPro 11 comes out later this year.
it's body cam and not 4k
but 15$ for Body cam is very very useful
It lost footage in about 1/3 of all recordings I would not call this useful at all.
@@GreenBoxMedia LOL then i don't call it to "body cam"
just garbage
thanks for that
👍
This would have been great 20 yrs ago. Or for maybe a young kid and just wanna start a journey. Or sometimes, like how they made Blair witch, that low-quality.
I buy this in 10$ and lost money .
Low video result battery timeing just 5 minutes
Also hang problems
It is bull crap. Just like the price.
@@GreenBoxMedia hahaha . its true
Thx
No problem
Thank you... they allllllmost got me.
good to hear!
Too late bro. I buyed that. And its totaly garbage. It's worth nothing . I feel bad . Its totaly not worth at all. Dont. Buy that people's.
Yep. Sorry to hear you had to learn it the hard way :(
can someone tell me why the f.k i saw the video in the same day that i bought the camera? AFTER I GOT IT ...i was expecting to be bad, but not that bad ...
Well youTube knows what's good for ya! 👀
Pleasant.. but iam 2days late to see you 😟😭
Cheap GoPro Alternative by Folkoutdoor - very good review.
Thanks! 👍
It gives us 90’s vibes
I know, right? 😂
hero 4 is $100 and up bro
The Pandemic made prices of almost all digital gadgets that can be used for home.office go up.
Thank you bro for guiding us….Can you send me this GoPro which you brought I also want to check this Action cam Thank you
Its already gone.
@@GreenBoxMedia Hey brother ,I want to ask anything from you may. I ask if yes please come to the Instagram inbox
Lol its the name of the product . So illegal to do that here in the US
Is it? I mean sure it has to be but lol. Yeah my thoughts back then.
D'Mehrheit vo dä Mönsche, isch ebe nit im Überfluss gebore so wie Du. Und für die si eigentlich söttigi Sache denkt und nit für go pro premium Wohlständler.
Checksch es? 🙂
What language is this even?
GoPro hero 4 is still $100+
It really depends on timing. I definitely had listings way cheaper than that.
Well done!
The cam is still better than your creepy hairstyle.
Very original. 👏
you should research that cheapskate are..
I did... now... wow...
What happened to your hair?
It grew. And never stopped since.
Du spreche Deutsch? You sound German. 👍 That Chinese camera you bought would be good for shooting 1990s style video because that's exactly what thw footage it looks like! 😂
I'm Swiss. It's more like 1970s super 8. Image quality in the 90s where pretty ok with SD resolutions.
Just give it to me huhuhuhuhu even if it is cheap I need it.. If you would please
You dont want that belive me.
@@GreenBoxMedia hahahahahahahah
Its not bad for me
Really? How come?
I had to take mine apart before using it bc it ate the sd card (the port didn’t line up
