WASPcam 4K 9907 Action-Sports Camera, Black

I have purchased nearly 20 action cams from several manufacturers over the past 8 years and use these as my workhorses day-in and day-out. I use them almost exclusively for capturing my day on the H2O fishing. I fish the professional musky tournament trail and also capture non-tournament trips with these cams. I have a YouTube channel, but do not have a fishing show, so I never even use the 4K option. I own three (3) and have NEVER had one fail on me under any circumstance. I have beat the living hell out of these things and they have not failed me yet. I am docking the WASP 9700 one star simply due to their use of a proprietary power cord, but Apple's been doing this forever, haven't they? The cords are solid. The cams are solid. Many of my friends in the angling community have also purchased these cams and have had nothing but great experiences with them. I don't need an app to capture my footage. Point, shoot, edit. Pretty simple really. If you can't figure this stuff out, I don't know what to tell you.

March 2021 UPDATE:The last camera I purchased suddenly stopped working. When I opened the cover I found the battery had swelled up so much that it crushed the sd card and damaged the circuit board of the camera. Extremely disappointed and angry if I'm honest. I lost some great footage that day. I will definitely stop recommending this camera from now.======================================================================Original Review:First off, I own both generations of the GoPro Session camera. I was looking for something very inexpensive that could replace them since use them as dashcams. Plus I have warrantied both of them because the internal battery leaked (205°F inside a car under Texas heat). I had no preconceptions about what would replace them.I stumbled upon this Wasp camera when Fry's had a good deal on it (forty bucks plus tax). I first used it as a rear dashcam. Hardwired to power, of course.Good, I thought but I only had a 32GB card at the time, and with "4K" enabled this meant it got full pretty fast. So I replaced it with the 128gb card from the GoPro. The Waspcam could not recognize the card at first, but I just thought to try to get it to format the card. Low and behold, it formatted the card just fine, and now it reported a 10 hour recording capacity time.After 6 months of traveling, I am very pleased with this camera. Sure it's not true 4K, but it's a damn good quality picture. I've taken road trip videos with this mounted to the roof of my car, hardwired to power without the side cover on, and it's never gotten wet inside with rain.I bought a second one to finally replace the front dashcam. I honestly feel like I can depend on this camera to get the job done. More than my GoPros that shutdown when they overheat. The Waspcam has never done that, under the same exact conditions.I have not tried the WiFi feature, since I'd just use it as a viewfinder. The LCD screen takes care of that just fine.

This was a gift bought for our Christmas Eve white elephant gift game if you don't know the game you pick a gift if you've been drawn and number in either you can still give or P open new one no egg if it's already been open can be stolen three times after the third time it's the person who stole it's for Keeps this was a big head I could not believe that they were fighting over this literally before they even can steal it after that he got stolen 3 times very fast and people were still trying to steal it even though they knew they could so far grade yet awesome price we'll see the quality but I'm sure it'll be good Vine

I kayak fish and have always struggled with keeping gopro's charged while maintaining a water tight case. I jury-rigged several cases to charge the gopro while maintaining some semblance of water tightness, but after a good dunk in the ocean the gopro was shot. I randomly saw a youtube video of a kayak fisherman using the waspcam and turns out it was on sale for $40 on amazon!! Killer deal! I have since used the camera (and waterproof charging cable) and have found the quality to be pretty darn good. It hasn't been fully dunked yet, but it's been through some pretty heavy rains without any issue, and at this price I am not going to cry if it breaks.

I have had this camera for about a year and, while it works well as far as video quality goes, the audio part was way too quiet. I downloaded the Waspcam app and it seems to have used the phone’s microphone for audio, which made it TONS better. I like being able to use my phone to control the camera — perfect for shooting video when the camera is not right on or near you (mounted on a car, helmet, etc).The bad — the app is no longer available on the App Store. I found out when I got a new phone and tried to install it.**Do not buy this camera! It’s almost worthless without the app. Not quite sure why the price is so high right now. I got mine for under $70 right here on Amazon.DO NOT BUY THIS CAMERA!

The worst part about this camera is you have to stop open the case pull the battery out just to change the SD card. Not worth my trouble.

Sound is poor, does not adjust well to changes in lighting. Not bad, but the sound should be much better

Camera is great for the price. The wifi is very slow and delayed when connected with my phone though. Picture quality seems good

La Cámara es muy bonita, de hecho e comprado 2 porque me gusto cuando me llegó la primera, el fallo que le veo es que la distancia a la que puedes hacer las fotos con el reloj es muy corta, tengo la Cámara puesta en la punta del kayak y desde el asiento la mayoría de las veces no llega, 1m o 1,5m la duración de la batería es de unas 2 horas y algo por lo demás perfecta, probada en agua y sin problema

Camera works fine, takes good pictures. The charge cord that came with it failed after second time using it, call the help number sending out a new cord no problem, no charge. The manual could use some updating, very poor and incomplete instructions, good thing they have a help line, going to need it. After registering the camera with Coba Electronics they sent me a coupon to buy from their site only to tell you at the end of the order they don't sell to Canada.

Records if plugged into power very good.

This product didn’t work and the app is no longer available for it on iOS and then your batteries know good wouldn’t stay on unless it was plugged in

Amazing
