I think this camcorder is just phenomenal. He got it for a Christmas present for my daughter and she really enjoys it. It gets an old vintage green field vibe to the video quality but even though it says it’s in 4K can’t beat it now she’s pretty happy with that is documenting everything since she’s got it, so there’s that in a nutshell.

Super easy to setup and use for life's precious moments. With holidays coming up I like to capture all the important things of family gatherings. This camcorder makes things so much easier. It comes with a controller so you can not just record the moments, but be actively present in the videos.

Had this camcorder not even three months and it already will no longer hold a charge. I immediately noticed battery issues at the time of purchase, that it was taking an excessive time to charge. Only way i can use is if charge cord is connected at all times. When i was able to use i was pleased with the quality of the video, surprise given how low the price was. I'll need to return or exchange.

Functions as it’s supposed to so no complaints there, but I do wish it was easier to format an sd card so it was ready to use right out of the box. Overall though, it’s not a bad little camcorder and I’m happy with my purchase.

I got this camera for livesteaming. It has terrible zoom. The picture is very grainy. The quality definitely matched the low price. They should take the 4K off of this thing. That's a total lie
