I'm actually really impressed with this thing. It's a LOT smaller than it looks in the product images, which was a happy accident for me. I had been shopping for a more compact one, but this thing fits really comfortably if I clip it horizontally from my belt loop. Part of my regular responsibilities include canvassing around my community, so I wanted to invest in something like this in the unlikely event that I encounter something that I need proof/footage of at a later date. For that purpose, the rotating camera is awesome to make people feel more secure that they aren't being recorded while the press-to-start switch makes for a super convenient way to start capturing at a moment's notice.The screen isn't exactly the greatest, nor is the audio quality, but they're both absolutely acceptable given the sub-$100 price point for this device. Odds are, if you're getting a device like this, it's because your phone is either too big, too obvious, or inconvenient in some major way. There are some major compromises between a phone camera and this device, but the size, battery, and cost are what you're trading those conveniences for.Now, I've seen a number of reviews dogging on the included microSD card, so I didn't even bother to try it out. I bought a 128 GB Silicon Power microSD, and it works perfectly with the camera once it's formatted (which the camera can do by navigating to the option in the menu). Odds are, you can even save money by going with the lower capacity model here and getting a bigger microSD card on your own.

I'm impressed by how capable this small cam is. The video quality is great, the controls are simple and the battery life is excellent. Equally impressive is the Customer Service that I have received from BOBLOV. The first camera that I received had a problem; one contact via the BOBLOV "chat" function with Customer Service got me a remarkably quick replacement. Thanks very much BOBLOV! My only caution for customers considering this particular model is that it is a bit on the fragile side. I may consider purchasing a heavier, more sturdily-built model.

I’m happy with this little body camera. Unfortunately ive been harassed and verbally abused by my next door neighbour. But of course he is denying it when confronted by his Landlord. So now I have to wear a bodycam each time I’m in my front or backyard. I’ve also had to install a security camera. This little camera does the job and once you understand how to navigate through, it’s easy and quick to use. I like that I can play the videos on the camera and that they save. This camera is great for what I need and the price is reasonable. Thankyou.

La qualità video è scarsa, ma il problema peggiore è che l'audio, pur alzando il volume al massimo (anche riproducendo nel pc) è talmente basso da essere inutile e non utilizzabile come prova.

had this for a few months now. got it for dog walks, to protect myself and my 2 large dogs since theres a woman who harasses me when we walk by her home because shes bothered by her dogs barking inside while we are outside, so she cusses me out, bangs on her window and blames me for her dogs' behavior. and other people let their little dogs run around off leash and run up on us. the camera is decent enough to record and hour or two if its fully charged. once fully charged the battery lasts long enough for a couple hours but even if its not being used the battery will still die even if the device is turned off.i have dropped it several times including while running in the pouring rain and still works. still works after hitting the pavement pretty hard. it just got some scratches from dropping it, it didnt break so it is pretty durable. ive had it out in heavy rain several times and has definitely gotten wet, so i'd say its water proof to a certain level. the night mode is decent as well provided there is some light source (dusk/dawn, bright moon, flashlight, street light). video does not show up well in pitch dark. The instructions are pretty simple to follow and i think it is user friendly. the biggest issue is just the battery cuz it needs to be charged a lot and dies even when its not being used so you have to make sure to charge it before using it. luckily it charges completely within an hour and a 20 minute charge seems to good enough for a 30 minute walk. when it gets to 1 bar of battery though its essentially dead cuz it barely lasts a few minutes once it reaches 1 bar of battery.the audio is also good. i think 30$ is a bit overpriced for this product since the battery is poor. but its one of the cheapest i could find with decent reviews and it is a decent device, minus always needing to be charged.i used the sd card it came with which is 32gb and its not great but it works. you could always use a larger storage so im not including that in my rating. 4 stars cuz its good except the battery.

I work security outdoors and wanted a small, unobtrusive camera that would not have any lights on it that would draw attention to me when going through dark areas. For the most part, the A22 pretty much fits the bill for my needs with maybe just a little room for improvement.In regular light, the picture is clear but the IR is a little weak. On a very dark night, I could not see objects that were maybe 10 to 15 feet away from me on the playback. To begin seeing objects clearly I probably had to be closer to 5 feet away but I need to test this a little more. Not great but not unexpected for this level camera either.Audio sounds fine. No indicator lights and being able to shut off the viewscreen helps keep the camera from being obvious or drawing attention to my location.I've read other reviews that stated the buttons made this camera almost unusable. I totally disagree with that. The button functions were easy to learn and easy to use even in the dark.As far as accessing the footage back in the office, the A22 acts like a standard mass storage device. Plug it in to a USB port and it shows up as a drive and all the video files are readily available. I've plugged the camera into my PC and my android phone with zero problems. I use VLC on my phone which worked fine for viewing the videos. I've not tried any other players.For my purposes, I leave the camera recording the entire time I am on patrol. I've recorded up to 5 or 6 hours continuously and the battery level indicated it was still above the half full. I understand that for someone else, they might prefer a central button to quickly begin recording instead but I find the sliding button on the side of the camera easy enough to use.Overall, I'm very pleased with this camera and only wish the IR was a little better.Pros:SmallDoes not draw attention to itselfClear video and audioEasy to useEasy to download videos to my PC and phone (only tried Android)Adjusting settings was easy. Menus were easy to navigate.Viewscreen clear and sharp despite small sizeCan be mounted magneticallyCons:IR is a little weak but acceptable for what I paidNo WiFi - not a big deal for me but if you want it, the A22 doesn't have itClip is fine for attaching to a shirt or jacket but will probably snap trying to attach to something thickerButtons - you may want a larger emergency on record button. For me, the smaller buttons are fine.12-20-22 - Updating my rating to 5 Stars. I encountered an issue with my camera which was absolutely my fault. I emailed the company with a question and they responded immediately and were helpful in resolving the problem I was having. It's a good camera for the price but good customer service is priceless.
