Then there is the removable battery below, WiFi function w / LED indicator on the right, and little data / charging port on the left USB.
Battery life
Packing 1050 mAh battery, and we did not expect much for longevity as it is now using the touch panel. Fortunately, the battery from the Explorer 2 way better performance of the top cherry Age Action Camera .
and was able to continue for a period of slightly less than 3 hours of continuous 1080p video recording. The use of real life, and we were able to use it for a little half-day before and we need to charge it using the charge powerbank we have. In comparison, the old cherry camera work only lasted a little over an hour of use.
shipping time is about 1 hour and 30 minutes.
Camera
Explorer 2 uses 12 MP and / 2.0 sensor w / wide angle lens that can record up to 1080P video at 30 frames per second . This is to some extent the base at the present time on the cams work at similar prices.
looking in the camera program, it reminds me of the stock Android camera application with the usual settings found in the home. It's easy to use and even has a human development and Panorama report.
Go to quality, as long as you are in good lighting condition, it will take pictures with acceptable sharpness, details, colors and degrees. It tends to be on the side with the most saturated yellow tone a bit, but I'm okay with it. Wide angle effect to some extent is very cool, and will not require you to use Panorama anymore in most of the time. With the use of HDR (even if they were somewhat) slow, go with one of the most beautiful and punchier result we've seen on cam reasonable working.
In indoor shots with dim lighting, it's acceptable in spite of grains and colors violetish will begin to emerge. Shots for the night, the tone violetish is more pronounced (although it would be to create a wonderful effect in some cases).
focus is also perfectly fine as long as your subject is not moving. However, it is not auto-focus and touch focus even macros it will be difficult. It can also improve and save time.
