Customer Ratings & Reviews

It’s tough to review something that is so deeply broken but I’ll go through my experience. From the start, I loved the packaging, really set the tone and separated itself from the rest of the pack by setting the tone that this would be something vibrant and fun. Instructions, while comically large, were very simple. Charge the camera with the included cord and power cube, download the app (sigh), power this on, connect, and shoot. Nothing too complicated. Off the start, I’ve already gotta remove 1 star since this is YET ANOTHER device that requires its own app. I mention this is tons of my reviews but when I have over the half the apps on my phone for niche products like this, it rubs me the wrong way, but I digress. After charging, I got the app, logged in, and started setting up the device. Immediately I noticed connectivity issues where it would connect, then disconnect every couple minutes, rendering it useless. Upon setting up I’d been connected to Bluetooth listening to music and figured that could be an issue so I restarted, removed the Bluetooth connection from Spotify and tried to reconnect. Again, this lasted a few minutes and stopped working. Throughout this process, I was able to get the device to track a little bit, snap 3 photos while it was inches from my face, and record 1 video as guests were walking in at the time. I tried to watch the video but nothing worked without being connected, but I can’t stay connected. I was able to view the pictures and thought the quality was good but a little worse than expected. It’s far from 4k and seems to really thrive off a bright room. Eventually I figured this may need a software update, so I downloaded that and continued on but had the same problems with connectivity. I went back to the App Store to see if there’s a different app to download or if I’d messed up somehow, the answer is no, it’s not me, it’s at minimum an iOS issue as every review on the iOS store is 1 star. Other reviewers on Best Buy’s site have got it to work, so I presume those are android users but can’t be positive. Either way, after hours and hours of headaches and hassles, this camera is seemingly paralyzed by their mandatory app. Even now, I can go onto the app and see that there is media stored but without the camera on, it won’t let me view my photos. Overall, horrible app integration that renders this a paperweight and giant disappointment. Even the rare times it can work, the photos are subpar. Definitely pass on this until a fix can be found

Amazing camera, easy to use. I love the front view if I flip the screen. I love it! I would te buy it another 10 times!

I'm a novice with camera. Most photos taken via cell phone. This camera is just as handy. Small with telephoto lens with wifi. I'm able to instantly view my photo on my phone. I plan on using it at Mardi Gras this year to snap some great photos.

Just finished a 14 day Safari in South Africa and this camera was great. The zoom lens really worked Great We brought two Cameras. One with all the bells and whistles and heavy and hard to figure and this camera did so much better than the other camera

I LOVE THE CANON SX-740-HS CAMERA. I'VE HAVE THE SX-730-HS FOR YEARS. I SENT 3 CAMERAS TO MY SONS AS A EARLY HOLIDAY GIFT. NOW I HAVE AND CHERRISH SO MANY PICS BECAUSE WE EXCHANGE PICS ALL THE TIME

Great camara !! My only problem is the battery does not last long and I have to remove it from tripod to change battery .other than that great purchas glad I brought it

SUPER AMAZING CAMERA!! This cameras has an amazing zoom for its compact little size. That and being able to shoot 4k videos makes it a compact go to for anyone. You will not be disappointed if you get this camera.

For the few days I've had this device, I am very happy with what this camera is capable of, my use case is well lit daylight /bright indoor scenes. For a 'first' camera, I highly recommend

So far so good. I'm relatively new to the photography business and I was looking for a easy to use camara but not loosing the great feautures that they have ro offer. The image quality in this camara is absolutely awesome.

Small, sleek and compact. Good picture and video!!

The camera takes very good pictures for the price but to use all of its features you almost need to take a class. The manual does not explain all of the ins and outs and it's frustrating to not be able to take advantage of what it could offer.

ive been using it to all my travels, i love it, you can zoom Its also good for concerts specially if you are nit close because you just zoom and super clear

I got thos as a gift. Works good. I still have a lot to learn aboutt this product. I am no pro but the pictures are good in the light but in the darkness or low light it is not that good. Great for blogging as the picture stabilization works well.

I got this camera because I don’t like the way my iPhone takes pictures and I must say that this camera is amazing. My fav feature is the zoom. You can really zoom in AND still see everything with perfect clarity. Buy it. You won’t regret it.

I purchased this as a gift for my sister and she absolutely loves it! She uses it to make vlogs all the time. The videos come out very clear.

This is a great little camera bought it to carry with us to theme parks and some concerts and takes pretty good pictures the zoom is incredible for portable camera

It is a great camera for a beginner, Just wanting to do simple recordings or take pictures it’s awesome and the phone app is definitely a bonus with this one.

Cannon Powershot SX740 is a great camera for my University Architecture Courses. Pictures are truly professional looking and realistic a great camera for the price.

This is the first camera I’ve ever bought. It is great for taking photos and videos and is great for the price. I wish it zoomed in and out easier but it works well and is worth the price Tag. I enjoy using it and will continue to use it.

Works well. I like the camera. I have use the camera.
