#akaso #v50x #tech4all
In the last weeks if someone asks me about a good cheap action camera there’s one model I recommend a lot - Akaso V50x - and it is totally worth every single penny.
It is cheaper than the other v50 models, and in my opinion - way better. And its qualities are beyond what’s visible from the specs - very good color science, very good build quality, a lot of useful resolutions supported and the best in class stabilization.
Let’s start with the awesome Akaso packaging, with a lot of useful accessories and two available batteries - so that you can easily swap in case needed.
The “heart” of the camera is a Hisilicon chipset, and a Sony 13MP IMX Sensor.
The display is touch, and very well responding, and - the great part is that the camera is also equipped with buttons - meaning that when it comes to diving it is quite good.
For the button navigation - Akaso stick to the traditions - on off button on the front and a lot of controls on the sides. Top is the shutter button, and the side buttons go up and down in the menus. Which without the waterproof case are easier to handle from the touch screen.
I can say that 30FPS in 4K is a delight to watch, and while the stabilization is not “rock-steady” or “hypersmooth” as labeled for other action cameras - it is very close to them, and - just carefully watch how smooth this video is.
Supported also is 2K at 60FPS - this is slightly more than FULL HD but still a little better than FULL hd and lets you crop around 5 percent without anyone noticing if your targeted format is Full HD. There also is a feature to reduce the wide-angle distortion - and you will eventually find out that it can’t simultaneously run with stabilization. Kind of expected at this price point - there still are very few cameras capable of doing it. Angle corrections - allowing narrower FOV done with a software crop, car mode, WDR - I simply am amazed how many the available features are.
And - the big surprise - at the time publishing this video there should already be an available external microphone support. Perhaps the first action cam on the market with microUSB port that can handle external mic - which limits you to the Akaso option only, but immediately turns this into the most affordable 4K actioncam with stabilization in 4K and external audio.
And now I will finally say something negative! The smartphone app - this time, instead of building it themselves, akaso use the Roadcam App, which is primarily for car DVRs - and well deserves its rating of 2.4 out of 5 stars in play store and app store. And this is a sin we will easily forgive.
Doing reviews about awesome products also feels awesome, and hope part of that good mood is now with you. What do you think of the V50X?

Excellent job on this review. I bought the cam (prior to your vid) after about a weeks research of all action cams under $150.00 for all the reasons you mentioned in your review. I even purchased the now available external mic. Thank you for reaffirming my decision on the purchase of the V50X.

This one is quite lightweight so the chances of surviving are good. While testing the Campark V30 I crashed it while it was on the 4WD buggy and it survived. I even managed to scratch the lens - which is visible in some parts of the video. Both are very similar in terms of specs and build quality - so that one should be good.

[@TechMishka]

I'd also go for the V50X if the choice is between these both.

[@domquindara2756]

I beg to differ that this is a good action camera. I had this setup on my motorcycle and the video was terrible. I traded up to a GoPro Hero8 black. I would not recommend this as an action camera when it comes to being mounted on a motorcycle or a fast moving vehicle when using video stabilization. Does not compare to my GoPro Hero7 black. Electronic stabilization is very weak when filming at high speed and degrades video quality to the point you cannot use it.

[@AlehandrosArhangelos]

He already said that stabilization is not good here, it is 100$ camera.

[@Asphaltsquadron]

We'll see, I plan to make vids via my hot rod. Not as fast as either of my bikes, but fast none the less. If it doesn't work out, I'll upgrade to the the GoPro. If not, I'll have a decent cam for walking around events, shows etc. On a side note, I've read many bad reviews about the Hero 7 black. More about that model than any other GoPro actually.

Let's also talk about the price difference those go pros are upwards of $300-$400

Hey Rony, thanks for the kind comment! I believe the DJI Osmo Action is a fantastic action camera and well worth the price. After the release of GoPro Hero 9 I saw it discounted at a few places. Its stabilization is pretty much gimbal-like.

@@TechMishka Thanks buddy, just my thought)

[@NoName-sk8eu]

Hii do you know if the go pro accesories work with this cam? Awesome channel by the way I just got this one based on your reviews!

[@TechMishka]

Hey Blue - most GoPro accessories work with this camera, yeah

[@fryorker1306]

Hi! great video, do you think the stabilizer is doing the job for trails mountain biking?

[@TechMishka]

In some cases it will be fine. But is not even close to what GoPro Hero 7 & 8 can do.

[@nimlinabdu]

Hii..very informative, thank you Michael!! One doubt is still bugging me, what type of memory card you slipped inside

[@TechMishka]

Most class.10 cards will be fine. Please note that in 2023 Akaso sell this model with different hardware inside and it is no longer that good.

Great video! I've had the camera for a while now and I have to say I definitely got lucky with the batch I got since I've heard so many people talk about the quality. I know the video came out a while ago but if you remember what settings do you run on the camera?

[@TechMishka]

I remember very well, because I use such almost always - Auto settings, 30fps, stabilization ON

Hello and thanks for all the info in your videos. We are looking for a low-cost action cam, realizing they are not apples to apples with higher end GoPro and DJI. We're looking for something primarily to use underwater but would like to use it sometimes while hiking and exploring as a backup to our phone cameras when we vlog. Now that a couple years have passed since you did this video, is there a different budget action camera you'd recommend? All the choices are a little overwhelming and we think we have narrowed our choice down to AKASO V50X, Wolfang GA 300, 400, or 420, or the Dragon Touch Vision 3 PRO (at a much lower price point). Any thoughts or recommendations from your tests and experience? Thanks so much!

[@TechMishka]

I'd suggest getting a second hand Hero 6 or 7, or DJI Osmo Action 1.

[@SteveAudra]

@@TechMishka Thanks for the reply!

[@nvrecko]

Great video! I found one for 85€ and free shipping. I will mainly use it for windsurfing so i hope waterproof case is good😆

[@TechMishka]

Enjoy your favorite sport 👍😊

Excellent review, one of the best on KZbin. I've been researching this camera for over a week and from what you and others have said, it's hard to beat for the price. Amazon has them on right now for $109 Canadian ($86 US). So, my buying finger is on the trigger, but I have one question: Has the audio sync issue on longer videos been resolved? I hear about this problem all over the place, but those comments are dated, so there might have been updates to fix it. Hope you can help. Thanks much!

[@TechMishka]

I almost never film videos with lengths beyond 5 minutes, so haven't tried it so far. Might still be the case though...

[@notsoeasyryder5150]

@@TechMishka For the record, I sent an email to Akaso this afternoon addressing this sync issue and they replied quickly. The problem occurs from not using the right micro sd card. A U3 rating is required to avoid the sync problem. Thank you for your quick response!

I am about to purchase an action camera to record my tennis matches - dont need a whole lot of stabilization although will be good to have just in case. I just need good 1080 or 1440 definition at 60fps so that the videos look good. Would the v50X or the brave 7le be best in this case? Saw your 7le review and your comment about the 1080p quality disheartened me, but never saw anything regarding 2k.

[@TechMishka]

The current V50X series have pretty bad 60fps modes

[@jonfrias990]

Hi Mike, Your videos are very helpful. I am looking for action cam to record my son's soccer games. At the moment indoors for Futsal and later for outdoor field. I plan to mount it on a 10-13 ft tripod. I would like a cam that can be controlled remotely, start/stop, zoom in/out, and has a live view on smart phone/app. Can you please recommend a couple? Thank you!

[@TechMishka]

If you are looking for exceptional quality - none of these will be great, not even the GoPro series' Generally - the Akaso camera is quite good for that. WiFi range is limited, and zooming is not possible. But you may ad zoom in post-production.

[@JOSH-bx5wp]

Hey man. Thanks for the video, how is this camera for POV driving videos? Thanks

[@TechMishka]

It's good! I believe in low light it is not as good as some 1080p dash cameras because of the pixel density.

[@jment34]

Is it still worth buying today or are there better alternatives for the same price?

[@poopscoop2000]

Hiya! Thinking about the 50x but could also get a second hand gopro hero 5 black for tubular price. EIS is important to me, which would you recommend please?

[@TechMishka]

The Hero 5 is nice, however it cannot stabilize 4K video.

[@jancenwalker3667]

How does the akaso v50x perform as a drone cam. It seems like the video jerks on sharp turns with EIM on (which I’ve noticed in other review vids). Have you experienced this and would you recommend this cam for this usage?

[@TechMishka]

You can get good footage only if you pair it with decent gimbal. Walkera G2d is a good idea. Or fly with a racing drone... most other options will result in not too entertaining footage.
