Great action camera

After using my Akaso Brave 4 and loving it after a hike, I decided to get a second one (within 1 week), the Akaso Brave 7 - GY. Due to the attractive price, overall value, larger front display, and mild water-resistance without case. Definitely different, the Brave 7 is much more sturdy, larger, and a bit heavier due the construction. The features and menu flow is a little different too, but still intuitive and easy to do without the online PDF manual.

Notable differences between the two. To start positively, both come with bunch of mounting accessories (everything you need to get started) - excellent! The batteries are slightly different size wise, so it you cannot share the Brave 4 and 7 in case you bought extras batteries (I did) - Just FYI. The outer protective frame on the Brave 7, it's cumbersome as it requires the mounting thumb screw removal to pull out the camera to get to the battery hatch, whereas the Brave 4 is a easy clip-on type without removing the mount screw.

The rear/front display switching button and wifi enable is different. For display Brave 4 = Up button hold; Brave 7 = Down button hold. For Wifi, Brave 4 = Power button hold; Brave 7= Up button hold.

Photo/Video/Setting configuration is similar and can also be done via touch screen on the Brave 7. Though something interesting in the Brave 7. Some settings are locked for edit and remain in default mode (not sure why these and other settings are modifiable). These are: [Camera]: Self timer; Auto Shoot interval; Auto Shoot duration; Burst photo type. [Video]: Timelapse interval; Timelapse duration; Video shoot time. This was frustration trying to figure out why....then assumed that these are probably not needed to configure, since you can do these manually in real time using the nifty Remote control (which btw, you have to charge its internal battery via included USB mini plug cable (yes mini) and not sure how long the charge will last though). Luckily the camera data/power port on both 4/7 is USB-C and you can use and charge at the same time, so that's good.

Aside from that I like both. Brave 7, I'll exclusively use for hiking (water resistance to 33ft - great for rainy hikes, and waterfall spray). Brave 4 I'll use for beach vacations since it comes with a true waterproof clear case (to 130ft).

La cámara en general es buena, cumple muy bien para uso familiar, en viajes o incluso en moto. En mi caso, la necesitaba para crear contenido y tuve un pequeño error con la unidad que recibí, pero el soporte de la marca respondió rápido y lo resolvió sin inconvenientes. Entiendo que son detalles comunes que pueden salir en este tipo de equipos, pero lo importante es que la atención fue excelente. Para quienes buscan grabar momentos especiales o actividades al aire libre, es una muy buena opción.

1st day using seems well made and takes great photos and videos

So far looks really good but will be trying it fully later this week
