4K Wi-Fi Action Camera Authentic H9

Action camera market is booming. More and more people are becoming interested in tiny, customizable and featherweight recording devices that  can fit your pocket and on top of that provide hell of a fun for semi-professionals and complete newbies.

However, as technology, market, products and customers demands progress, less and less brands seem to be focused on providing a good camera priced below RM180.

That is why for people on a extremely tight budget, there seems to be less and less cameras to choose. Everyone are producing something mid-range these days. Even Chinese brands.

So why is H9 by Eken is an interesting camera?

Is it because it shoots videos in full HD at 30 or 60 fps? Is it because it comes action-packed with accessories,has a built in WiFi and a neat 2 inch LCD screen? Or is it maybe due to the fact that it can shoot 4K videos in useless 10 fps?

The real reason why this camera is interesting is that it provides all these features for a little over RM 120 . Price and options it offers make this device, launched by Chinese brand Eken, quite interesting. At least on a paper.

So I decided to give it a try. According to specs, it appears to be a perfect choice for newbies. Can this little known brand from Shenzhen create something that can beat famous SJ4000, the most popular affordable GoPro alternative?

Like you, I am so curios to find this out. I have been using Eken H9 for a couple of weeks now, and I am ready to tell you all about it in this review of mine.
