This was the first Akaso action camera I've tested, and for an affordable price of $118, I'm super impressed with this little cam. While the video quality, stabilization and audio is not as good as some of the other players in the space, the Brave 7 LE has all the main features most look for in an action cam. In this video, I put the Akaso Brave 7 LE against the DJI Osmo Action, GoPro Hero 8 and Insta360 One-R.

[@bloktrok6735]

Hello, I watch you for quite a long time and I really love how you put your effort in all your videos and you always give us the best information and advice on every product that you review! I would like to thank you for doing that and also keep going! And for the camera, i will most likely use it for enduro vlogging in the woods and use it in the sea.

[@FlytPath]

Wow, thank you!

[@martyptx]

Great review! I watched it several times. And, I also watched several several of your other action camera videos. You helped me a great deal in the past with my DJI Spark. You are very believable, thorough, and honest with your reviews. I was really leaning to get the Osmo Action but Amazon had a flash sale on this camera so I ordered it for $118. Thanks for all you do!

[@solomonazana7018]

Woooah this is great! I wanna use this for filming my travels with my family. It doesn't matter where we will be. As long as I am with them, I'll be enjoying every second. I wanna capture every moment with them and I'll definitely treasure them all♥️

[@xoloitsquintli]

Just found your channel by looking to budget action cams. Great review, no bs just straight to the point with your honest impression. Thanks!

[@scrappinfairyof3]

Great review. I need this for my snorkeling & kayaking trips. Seriously thinking of gifting it to myself. Thanks for the fantastic comparison...very helpful

[@araknd]

This looks like the action cam that I have been waiting for. I am an "advanced amateur" photographer and I have been looking for something like this as a backup video camera. The price point is in my sweet spot. Thanks!

[@flytown9853]

I like the way you do such an in-depth review of the products and accessories that we, pilots, may want or need.

[@fairestpython1147]

Just ordered one to capture my mountain runs and other events i plan attending in the future! Thanks for the amazing review on this camera

[@stoneburnerdroneservice]

Well done no-nonsense review, sir. I would use this camera to expand my drone photography operation.

[@kaicameron6401]

Aldryn, thanks for helping your subscribers learn more about new film technologies. Great review especially with the comparisons. Wow, A real reason to excited about the Akaso. A price point half of the competition with great accessories. Filming the wilderness in Colorado with it would be a great addition to the other products I purchased based on your recommendations. The DJI Mavic Mini and the DJI Mavic Air 2. Thanks much for keeping us up to date.

[@FlytPath]

Glad it was helpful!

[@chu30cho]

Thank you, there’s always a pleasure watching your videos, and the most impressive thing about having a camera is capturing those memorable moments, with you’re family and friends and watch those videos in the future to laugh and remember those good times over and over again. Looks like this AKASO camera will do the trick.

[@usauas9703]

Great comparison! I think it’s great that other manufactures are jumping into all these different markets. It makes it a bit harder for a buyer to decide, but it helps get us what we want/need for our work. Reviews like yours ALWAYS help too!! I am a video opportunist like you.... I shoot when and where I can of nearly anything. Thanks for posting!! 😃

[@Benji_itfirst]

Thanks for the review and that you honest. I’m starting filming and doing some learning. I want that my kids have good memories and I can share them with them. My goal is doing 2-5 minute videos for each event and then doing a full video with all of them for the whole year back for Christmas. Thanks again stay healthy and safe

[@stacycooper5920]

Love how in depth this review is! I’ve been looking at a lot of the akaso cameras which I will use for filming throughout nursing school (which I start beginning of September!) I love that the brave 7 has the front facing screen! Thanks for this review and the giveaway!

[@RustyJackson]

Thanks for opening up my eyes to this brand as I had not heard of it. This looks like a great one for hikes and putting on the end of a paint pole to get some elevation!

[@JettPalmer]

I’ve recently been learning more about photography and would love to have this cool action camera!! Thanks for the informative video!!

[@michaelshank1622]

I really enjoy your videos. Great content and pertinent detail. Keep it up. I learned how to use my Mavic Mini by watching your videos. Working on using different filters now and just got back from The Outerbanks in North Carolina. Got a lot of flying time in with my Son-in-law. Thanks agin!

[@greg23366]

Great video as usual. You are the best. Thanks for enhancing my photography, videography and drone experience.

[@sfields6903]

Another GREAT review. I had a very early action cam and it was terrible. I had hooked it up on my Spyder (3 wheeler). I was attempting to use it to record my travels especially with other riders. With the better stabilization, it would be awesome. I would be very open to sharing some of that footage with the group. Action cam is perfect for this kind of use! Thanks Aldren!

[@douginNC28139]

I’d like to carry this on my motorcycle. Also have an upcoming trip planned to Yellowstone where I’d like to use this camera. Really enjoy your reviews.

[@JohnDStrand]

I would add it to my S500 drone build that I am currently programming for autonomous drone flight. I just found your channel after looking for some Tello videos. I really enjoy your style and the real-world applications you use. Thanks!

[@cosgra1]

Great content Aldryn, If selected this would be my first action camera which I would use whilst mountain biking and general countryside walks reviewing my surrounding area and posting hopefully here on KZbin as I find your work inspirational to watch on a weekly basis. Keep up the good work

[@BlendedVinyl]

With the action camera I would definitely go out and shoot vlogs around the rocky mountains here in Canada. I would also use it to capture footage while I'm skiing. Thanks for the amazing content you put out!

[@hazard007100]

Great review as always!! I'm also a family guy and would record our outings and time together on holidays etc. We love watching our older videos together. Enjoy!!

[@anastasiaclendaniel6035]

I would love this camera because I am a gardener in Phoenix Arizona. Currently it’s 116 degrees F. I’d love to share my gardening tips with other people gardening in this harsh heat, and also share our amazing wildlife. We have a road runner nest in our yard, Owls, humming birds and so much more. Thanks for the video.

[@BrianKroll]

Thank you for what you do! I’ve never had an action camera, I’d use it for keeping up with my daughter who turns 13 next week and is quite the athlete. She’s trying stand up paddle bards next week. I’m also starting to experiment with vlogging and am a big hiker!

[@chickenwangs4155]

Newest member of the notification squad! I want to do some traveling using a camera that’s not just my phone! The AKASO action camera seems like something that can alleviate my dependency on my phone for vlogs. Thanks for getting into the user aspects (stabilization, audio quality, accessories, improvements) that people care about in your video!

[@geoffreymckenzie5561]

I will use the Akaso Brave 7 LE for capturing hiking, bike riding, boating, flying, and hummingbird videos. Thank you for your great videos, I truly learn a lot from them.

[@geoffreymckenzie5561]

Thank you

[@MiguelPerez-yb9ee]

Thanks once again and as always very informative. Clear info and very professional videos . Keep up the good work.

[@FlytPath]

Very welcome

[@maykelsach795]

Awesome action cam, getting one for my jetski action. Also what separate this cam from the top expensive ones is that it includes all the accessories you'll ever need.

[@madclouds]

Really great review Al! Thanks for putting this together for us.

[@FlytPath]

My pleasure! Thanks Erik

[@DroneSyndrome]

Seems like a great low cost alternative to the Osmo which is much more expensive. The image quality looks nice too. Thanks for sharing it with us on your channel.

[@michaelm9428]

Great information. Camera looks fantastic for price. I Watch many of your videos for help on new Mavic Air 2. Thanks a lot for all your work helping others.

[@davidj.7779]

I just watched 5 different "Best Budget Action Cam" videos before yours and not one of them bothered to show a shred of actual video taken with the cameras they were "reviewing"...they just read off the spec sheet, showed a few promo pics and sucked the viewers in. Yours is the only video so far that actually shows footage shot simultaneously with different cameras, allowing viewers to compare with their own eyes and decide which works for them. Actually showing a audio comparison is super rare and really helpful. Nice job

[@kcscottkc]

I would use it for recording my motorcycle rides. Thanks, great review.

[@BOKI797]

FlyPath that looks like a Nice Camera &Great Video ! I would use to just carry along when I Fly my Drone ! Thanks for the Video !

[@chrisli7260]

Love your reviews. Very informative. Thank you. Perhaps I missed this part. Can you change the lenses? Add filters etc. Please and thank you.

[@romyignacio8550]

Great review . That camera will really suite me.Always out riding off road on road 6days a week, a icon in the biking community.

[@tdelnay]

Would love to have something like this for family vacations and action sports! Enjoyed the review!

[@TyTie120807]

Awesome awesome reviews man. Keep it up. I’ve been looking for something like this. It’s perfect for videos I make when I go on trips with my friends. All of my videos are pretty much up in your face type of shots and this is perfect! It looks super portable and easy to start up. Would be super grateful to be able to have this added to my drone videos as well. Thanks man!

[@kevinrussell6223]

Akaso brave 7 is a great budget action camera that I've been checking since March of this year,I would use this daily to document my workout routine & other sporing activities

[@tristanstocks7359]

Thanks for the great video - really helpful while I'm looking to buy an action camera for multiple uses!

[@epximages949]

I appreciate all of your reviews and tech talk. Your positive reaction to this product has me seriously considering it. Only thing that's going to stop me from purchasing it is if I win it!

[@FlytPath]

CONGRATS to Big Fire Dave!!! You won the AKASO Brave 7 LE

[@Tingtvph9226]

Congrats sir. And thank you for the review of action cameras!

[@jimdole8775]

Another great info video. I bought my Mavic Mini based on your videos. An action cam added to my gear would make it complete, thanx again!!!!

[@JordanWoodwerx]

Thanks for the info!! I plan on filming my woodturning videos! Appreciate you brother!

[@ljocchino]

Great review Aldryn! I purchased an Insta360 GO recently which I've been having a lot of fun with. I'm considering on adding a second action camera to my repertoire. This would be a great addition as I am more of an adventure shooter/seeker and it's SUPER affordable! Knowing I could take the Akaso Brave 7 into the water without any real worry oppose to the GO would definitely be nice to have handy. On another note...Really glad I found your channel bud. Your content is superb and the way you present everything is top notch! Keep it up!👍😎

[@richard9610]

Excellent review. I'll give my Osmo to my son and get the AKASO. I like the simplicity of settings for the AKASO for the way I'll use it.

[@kenleung1002]

Thanks for the comparison. I came across Akaso on Amazon since it's a bestseller, but I wish audio quality was better and it had support for 4k60.

[@JohnPhilion]

My wife and I are planning a return trip to the Philippines after 45 years away. Thinking of getting both the Akaso Brave and the Osmo Action using one for vlogging and the other for diving. Really appreciate your detailed videos and the complete analysis you do on a regular basis.

[@masterchief1205]

Hi there! Nice review. I was actually already looking at the Akaso. I am currently getting into the FPV drone hobby and was thinking of going with a budget action camera instead of a Gopro or Osmo Action. Of course, the kids will also love being able to film themselves in the swimming pool.

[@martinrobertson8410]

Great give away I like you will use it for documenting our family trips as a record for our wee one growing up to look back on when she is older

[@maciejewskim]

Perfect camera for taking videos of our kiting events. Love it.👍

[@lanjani81]

Thanks for this nice informative video. Yess...im looking forward to buy this one!

[@issaruiz]

I’ve been recently getting into traveling and hiking to places. The brave7 le makes it sound so easy to record these beautiful places and that front screen is really the best to keep me and my friends in farme if ever I do want to switch around for a different perspective.

[@walhouni]

Thank you for a wonderful review, I am gopro fan, I owned hero 6 and unfortunately I lost it a year ago on trip, anyway I was looking around for new action cam and I found your video, I really like the recording of Brave 7 LE and I am thinking about it, thanks again

[@dansaver8247]

Terrific product description and wonderful-looking children. Thank you.

[@SCAerialsSteveCarpenter]

Hello Aldryn, Akaso make a very nice camera for the price. I’ve owned an earlier model of their action camera and couldn’t believe how good it was especially being on sale at the time for only $50. I, like you, use an action camera for General uses like at work and out having fun with grandkids. Nice review, and thanks as always for your balanced review and Hands on testing. You take care!

[@messiahangeles9987]

Would love to have this when I go back home to the Philippines. Will try this for motovlogging and as an action cam in general.

[@ShurThing]

Impressive little bundle! All purpose, family activities, and casual stuff for me.

[@Arbigale]

Salamat bro, laking tulong ng vlogs and reviews mo🤙🏻 ingats lagi

[@toddhasselman2961]

With a family of 5 kids I would use it to record pool days and sports along with day to day goofiness. But first will be our wedding that is coming up and our honeymoon to the smoky mountains. Thank you for reviewing this I have seen them but always thought you get what you pay for. Also huge shoutout in looking to buy a drone and your Mavic Mini videos have me hooked.

[@isie8219]

I plan to use it as my first vlogging cam..thanks for the review

[@juvi427]

My daughter just turned 1 a couple of months ago, and an action cam is sometimes more convenient (as a dedicated device) to record her shenanigans with than the phone in my pocket... It's also nice to connect to a uvc capture card to do higher the webcam quality video calls with.

[@ricardojromell]

As the owner of the akaso V50 pro. Their camera held up damn well scuba diving in Thailand captured a bunch of clownfish. Hoping to visit Huntington beach to surf later this year...iam sure the new akaso brave 7 will work well. Also my wife and myself were planning to anniversary in Bali... What a boon this would be on our trip.

[@sanderb.9894]

I want an action camera for travelling and surfing. I have a 20 dollar action cam and I love the possibility of it but the quality is really bad but it was just to try out. Was looking for a good budget one and here it is. (and of course a great review like always 🙂)

[@jamesschiller2054]

This looks like a solid setup for nature footage. I've been looking into something to supplement drone footage, and this looks like a good option

[@mikejiminez7489]

Thanks for the review on this camera. Looks like a great value. I use action cameras to review my golf game a for fishing trips.

[@RichardsWorld]

It would be nice if you mentioned the FOV option that you used. The Akaso seems to be cropped in quite a bit. When I use a GoPro or the Insta360 One R I like the linear option.

[@stanleyhache6407]

If the AKASO had all of the bells and whistles that people are asking for ... it would not be budget price now would it? And let

[@raulmcastaneda180]

Dang that is a nice camera. I was looking to get one because my kids saw a commercial where they can record them selfs in the pool. Also my wife and I just got a bike and that would be really fun to record as we ride. Thank you for the videos you make they really do help.

[@olivierdamiron7279]

I would definitely use this on my fixed wing RC aircraft for aerial footage. Looks like it would be a good all purpose replacement for a GoPro, for a lot less too. Very impressive little camera. Thanks for the review.

[@OVRCOME]

Hey! Like you, I have some kiddo's and its always good to have something like this for family trips fishing or camping since that is about all we can do with the current situation! This would be used for making memories with my little one! Great video! Great Breakdown. I think this camera does not do as well with the dark tones but for the price it compares very well!

[@winstonshaw2533]

just watched your akaso brave 7le video really impressed. never had a video 📹 🎬 but I will be buying this one. see how it goes. thank you 😊

[@gtpjon]

Would love to use the Akaso for blogs & use as ground camera while droning . Great Review again!

[@revolver3598]

I'm about to start my university career, I'm very excited and I would love to have a way of recording great memories of this life stage. I've never had an action camera, and I'd love to get this one!

[@andrewade7017]

Great review!! You may save me a few bucks as I was looking at the Osmo Action as I begin my vlogging campaign. Thanks Bro! My 11 year old son and I love your channel. He has recently got into flying drones (my mavic air that I recently picked up used on Ebay ). Please stay safe and well!!!!

[@SteveLoweMedia]

I'm a bike rider and love to document my rides. Thanks for the video!

[@jumbo122524]

Good review. I'm planning to record my kids for their activities. We are enjoying bike and tennis.

[@GibStud]

Solid review! Your comments about bang for the buck made me think of my MA2. Just starting out with videography and this would be great to have. We are avid hikers and Triathletes and am storyboarding a “Day in the life of” short for my first video. This would be perfect 👌🏼.

[@RICKHALBUR]

Thanks so much Aldryn fine unboxing as always I cannot tell you how much i enjoy you reviews always honest and straight forward to the point and all the high points of the product, thanks again hope the Family is doing great 👍🏻 Take care and be safe my Friend God Bless This camera would be great to have to add a different viewpoint in my video’s and give me options to pick from.

[@bvaldes8791]

Great review I think for the price it’s amazing what you get. I would love one to video my grandkids they are about your sons ages and fun to hang out with not only that they love to see themselves on video. Thank you

[@dre963]

I just got into action cameras and this one is a good entry level rig that I could use to test the waters with and not come close to breaking the bank.

[@JMandCBC]

When you playback videos on the brave 7 camera, will it play audio? Just got mine, and there’s no audio when I play back videos on the camera. Thanks

[@martinnap77]

All purpose as well!! Mahalo nui loa for the review, Aloha

[@Greg_Pittman]

This would help me with my drone and tech channel. You always do great reviews. Thanks 👍👍🤜

[@RobertMejia3DArtist]

Great review and great price. Just as I use my drone, this action cam would be used to record my daily life and want to start sharing my weekend adventures biking and hiking at state parks!

[@falcontrips]

AKASO Brave 7LE looks as a good and buget choice with the compared one. One small corrections to the PROS - the max frame rate to 1080p is 60fps, that shows the specs on Amazon. If I had this camera I would use to the 2.7k 60fps for my winter ski videos and other trips. 2.7k will be also matching with a Mavic Mini footage. This the first time I see this brand, that is a promising approach of building comparable devices with less price. Thanks, all the best.

[@rando6323]

I’m trying to do videos on KZbin and trying to get different camera gear to get started & this would be a great addition to my camera gear. Thanks for you’re videos👍

[@rockyo967]

My daughter and grand daughter having become interested in outdoor action activities, archery, shooting, fishing. It would be handier for a grandpa to record them with a small action cam rather than using my old Rebel t2. Great informative video. Thank you.

[@hhz246]

Great review, thanks!

[@bozosni]

Very nice comparison. looks like that for the price you get a lot of camera with Akaso. Thank you!

[@joseneves2822]

This camera is going to be my first action camera ... Yessssss ;)

[@drmuppy1]

This appears to be a very good grab-n-go option for a traveling vacation. Thank You.

[@MrBuskid]

Im still on the fence on Akaso, I have had 2 EX7000's. Akaso advertises them as "4k" but shoots in 2K that resembles 1080p. Both got so hot that they locked up and stopped recording, underwater! I have lost too much footage to the "$100" action camera that i'm just saving for an Osmo Action. Keep up the great reviews maybe do a long term test.

[@baeschler]

I have an AKASO V50 Pro that I really like. Paid $100 for it on Amazon. It is no longer available. I like to put my AKASO on my RC rock crawlers to send videos to my grandson. He loves them. Nice review. Keep them coming man.

[@3llya71]

Nice vid, an action cam is the next move in my videography hobby, I would use it as a body cam while drone flying and hiking. But real interested in it’s underwater use. Thanks again for an informative video.

[@MALANtattoo]

Great review! Thx for that. Does anyone know if this camera can live-stream via HDMI? Or HDMI is only for recorded video playback?

[@michaeldeckert6023]

Great review. I bought my Osmo based on your review be and comparisons. Looks like a great alternative for budget minded buyers.
