    If I could give it no stars I would!! Got it for my daughter for Christmas and the power button stuck. She literally played with it for one day. It would not stay charged for long and took all night to charge it. The videos were good quality but it literally worked for less than 24 hours.

    Bought this as a last minute gift for our girls. They love to do videos of each other, and the "kiddie" action cam they ha was pretty sad. For $50 you get all the accessories, and a decent waterproof HD camera. So far, so good.

    I wanted a camera to mount to my Sea Doo jet ski to take videos and pictures. The first riding was a little tricky to figure out how things worked on the fly but once I got the hang of it the quality really showed.

    Comes with Helmet or Bike Mount with case for protection! Picture is excellent. Takes up to a 64gb MicroSD card. Battery life is okay, however for price it was well worth it!

    Got this for the grandkids to play around with in the pool. They love it. it certainly does not compare to more expensive cameras, but for the price, you can't beat it for something to just play around with.

    For 49.00 not bad couldn't use it for what I wanted to do with it, use as a scope cam. The focus was too far back to get up close to the eyepiece of the scope. It records OK not real high quality but adequate for general use. Does't do to bad for inside movies. The accessories that come with it are nice. Over all for a quick and dirty knock off of a Go Pro it will do.

    Bought this camera for it's underwater abilities before we went on vacation. Chatted up the batteries and went for or first snorkel. The quality was decent, and in the little box it did stay waterproof. However, by our third time in the water, the screen would no longer turn on and it wouldn't take any more pictures. Very disappointing

    Great camera for casual users. Clear video quality watch remote only allows for turning off....or taking pictures and video. Water proof case is water resistant at best..would not use at depth.

    I've used this product for a few days and I am impressed. I'm a videophile who spends a ton of money on hardware because I am addicted to affordable technology. Buying this product afforded me an opportunity to truly appreciate Vivitar as a company. I appreciate the packaging, quality plastic moulding, user-friendly buttons and touch controls that make this product easy to use during family outings, public commutes, or when hanging out with the neighbourhood kids.
