After our reviews of two NIA BT headphones, this local tech retailer contacted us once to review two products but this one first which is our first product check from Yi, known for it's affordable yet quality action cameras
Here is their most affordable action cam so far - the Yi Discovery
Thanks to Maricel Online Store, I am happy that this Yi Discovery is full in English language from the box, menu and the leaflets. Here is the box by the way
Here is the Yi Discovery action cam itself. At the front, it has Yi branding, LED indicator and 16 MP Sony MIX 179 camera
Nothing at the left (if you will face it at the back) as you can see the micro USB port for data and charging and micro SD slot
The back has 2 inch touchsreen display with pre-applied screen guard for menu and viewfinder
The top has a speaker, two microphones and one multfunction button for shutter and for tunring off and on the device
The bottom has a flap which houses a 900 mAh removable battery which the brand claim that it can shoot up to 90 minutes of video which we will have to verify the resolution
Nothing much on the box with micro USB to USB port and user manual which I can't complain for now with it's low SRP
From the device itself while we are still shooting for some videos, it was quite sturdy and the touch display is quite responsive. If there is one missing element on the product is the mount slot so that you can place it on a tripod, monopod or gorilla pod so a Yi Discovery waterrproof casing is a must
Yi Discovery can shoot photos, videos at 4K at 20 fps, Quad HD at 30 fps, Full HD at 60 and 30 fps and HD at 90, 60 and 30 fps plus it can also do timelapse and loop videos. It is currently at Php 3,899 at Lazada Philippines and also available thru Shopee PH and can also be availed by checking their Facebook page here
Watch out for our review soon of Yi Discovery action camera
