We compared two 4K waterproof action cameras: the WOLFANG Action Camera GA100 and the AKASO EK7000.
What we looked at
Included accessories, battery life, and price.
The verdict
If you want the lower price with an external microphone included for vlogging, the WOLFANG is the value pick, at £38.99. If you would rather pay £12.00 more for 2 rechargeable batteries (90 minutes each) and a large accessory kit compatible with GoPro mounts, the AKASO EK7000 is the alternative, at £50.99.
A £38.99 4K action camera with an external microphone included.
