Bought this for a trip to Kauai. Researched many different models in the weeks prior to this purchase–watched and read reviews. Almost returned it before the trip and abandon the idea of having an action camera at all. I didn't want to spend as much as a GoPro due to all the issues users report on those. I'm really glad I decided to keep it and use it.
This camera and accessory kit worked perfectly for my needs. I used it mainly for snorkeling and got an abundance of fish and turtle photos and videos.
It was very easy to use underwater in the waterproof case, switching between modes, which is what I wanted.
A small complaint is with all the little accessory pieces that come with the kit. It isn't intuitive on what they're for or how to use them. In AKASO's defense, their pdf user guide names each piece, but doesn't specifically say how to use them. Also, I didn't have a lot of time to really figure out what each thing was for.
I wasn't looking for a professional level camera, so this one worked great for my needs. I'm only going to use it for travel and mostly water-related photos, so this is great. It performed great and was at a great price.
I didn't spend a lot of time looking at or changing settings, so it was mostly out out-of-the-box settings.
