Xiaomi is well known for its smartphone products and now the Chinese company has launched a wonderful camera, a tiny camera, an attractive camera loaded with some high-end features. Analysts say it is the best cam at such a price in the market in terms of design, features, performance and also image quality.
The pros of Xiaomi Yi Action Cam is that it offers more camera features and better photo as well as video quality than other cameras coming at such a low price. More to this, it comes with a removable battery and Micro-HDMI port too to support live video output.
But wait. Don’t be in hurry to grab one piece for yourself. There are some downside too. Its main disappointing part is that the instructions of operation are written in Chinese language only, and this will need some guesswork to use the gadget for those international users who look for English texts. Also, there is no option of using memory card, mounts or housings on it. The Xiaomi Yi Action Cam is not waterproof too.
Xiaomi showcased the tiny Yi action cam at Mobile World Congress earlier this year and it was welcomed by visitors with a surprise. However, the leap of the company isn’t surprising as apart from smartphone it has also produced related gadgets such as headphones and Mi Band fitness tracker.
In the Chinese market the product is made available for 399 yuan. One can buy it from retailers like GearBest.com. The gadget costs £65 in Europe and AU$120 in Australia when converted.
Critics compare the Yi cam with Monoprice MHD 2.0 and Polaroid Cube. This is something very good as both the cameras are high-end and popular.

Looks informative ineedd. Someone transfer to English, please. From what I see here browser and 720p video need a huge lift. But, as said, this is only a developer version. Look forward to the final retail version.
