Super-resolution
This camera captures higher FPS and resolution, i.e., 4k/60FPS. This resolution and quality is as best as the quality of action cameras of GoPro.
2” IPS display adds up in Akaso V50. Not only is there a feature of a touch screen, but you can also operate your camera through its buttons present on its side. But this touch screen has not many positive reviews. Many people complain that this screen is tiny to operate effectively. Also, screen elements are always present on the touch screen. This does not allow the full view on-screen hence it acts as a turn-off for a videographer..

This camera lacks native water resistance. You can’t use this camera in simple cases such as rain. The remote controller for this camera, which comes with the package, is also not waterproof hence on risk.
Without a waterproof cover, this action camera only weighs around 76g. This camera is so lightweight to carry anywhere with you, either your friend’s birthday party, bbq with family, or your hiking adventure in the mountainous region.
Generally, Akaso V50 prois easy to operate, but Akaso company tried to add value in this ease.
