Excellent purchase, I was leery at first because I thought for a couple hundred dollars more I could get a GoPro, which I had one in the past and loved it, but it went missing, and I needed to get another one. I took the chance and purchased the Osmo Action 4 4K Camera, and I've never been happier. I feel this camera is much better than my GoPro. I encourage anyone who is in the market for one of these little cameras to check out Osmo; you'll be happy you did.

I use it for vlogging. It's small, lightweight, good quality, and easy to use! Better than a GO PRO!!! I recommend. Everyone I know who's had one says it's the best. If you're looking for an action camera that's portable, you won't find one better imo.

This is my second Action 4. I got the Action 4 adventure kit Christmas and when the camera went on sale, I bought another. I do some vlogging, YouTube videos and record live music with mine, as well as general use. I especially like the time lapse video function.
Yes, the newer Action 5 is better, but for the on sale price, you can't beat the 4.
The picture quality of the video is clean and sharp. Not bad in low light either. Especially in 4k at 60hz. They vivid color setting give the right amount of punch. There's also a manual mode for video and photos.
Built quality feels solid. I especially like the locking magnetic mount that compatible with gopro accessories. Up to a point. However, there's no standard tripod mount on any clip on mount that attaches to it. There's one on the bottom of the 1.5 meter stick that comes with the adventure kit.
It plays well with the DJI Mimo app on my iPad. However, trying to transfer files directly from the camera to my windows 11 pc has problems. The camera locks up in about a minute after it connects
Audio quality of very good too. Not quite as good as my Canon V10, but that camera has larger mics and costs more too.
The Action 5 has a high pixel sensor chip. 40mp I think. It might be a better choice if you plan on taking a lot of stills. Video wise, no huge difference. DJI's Rock Steady image stabilization has settings and can be turned off.
Conclusion: Easy recommendation if on sale. If not, I think the Action 5 is $50 more. I'd get it instead. I'll get an Action 5 eventually. Can't go wrong with DJI. I've got a Mavic 3 Classic and it's never let me down and it's picture quality is outstanding.

It is an awesome action camera. The video quality is great and it is easy to use. My only gripe is with the app that’s offered by DJI. It’s not required to use the camera, but it’s nice being able to control the camera functions from your phone. Just don’t let your phone lock or it’ll disconnect you from the camera and you’ll have to connect to it all over again.

I was looking for a small video device similar to Go Pro and this was perfect. Video quality was better than I expected, it has a good battery life but for a full day, I bought extra battery which was perfect. Still leaning to use.

GoPro wouldnt allow an external microphone, so after a lot of research, I purchased this DJI Osmo Action 4 cameras. It works great and takes amazing videos.

Love this action camera. Its so convenient and fun to use. I think its better than most of the older Go Pros. It is so well made and fits so many configurations with accessories. Best buy was really good to me with this purchase and the manager and employees at the Hulen location were awesome.

Great upgrade over my previous Hero10 with fast start up and recording.
Smallest and lightest out of the current top 3 action cams.
Removeable lens and lots of lens adapters on the market.
Magnetic mount is a quick way to move camera vs thumb screws.
Interface is quick and easy.
10-bit color.
Cons:
Not as sharp as the competition. Zoom is digital and it ruins quality. Low light performance is not as impressive.
Get the Ace Pro for better image quality, 2x clarity zoom, better low light performance, although no replaceable lens and bigger/heavier.

This is one powerful little machine. I’m coming from go pro and I love the magnetic snap, makes it so much easier to remove my camera. This will require patience as there’s so much to learn. I love recording in log. The images just come out smooth. I will admit there’s a bit of focus issues but nothing major unless your looking got it. Im a photographer so i tend to look for that. Other than that, i look forward towards the future updates and future products
