I was a little hesitant about veering away from the ever more expensive "brand leader" but the price difference in comparison with quality, spec and what you get in the box makes the Muvi K2 Pro an absolute no brainier! All I could hope is that the performance of this camera could live up to the impressive list of highlights! To say I was not disappointed is a massive understatement, in fact I am thoroughly delighted and pleasantly surprised at how well this camera performs! To begin with, the presentation is superb, it comes in a hard plastic carry case that's padded inside for extra protection, the accessories that you get with the camera improve this already great value for money package! In particular the silicon case is a great accessory, perfect for making the unit weather/splash proof making it great for bike rides, beach trips etc.... using the K2 Pro is also very straight forward, although I do love a camera, I'm not the most techy of people, so I was over the moon with how easy this camera was to use, the touch screen LCD is also a much better addition than I first imagined it would be. The test run came when I went on holiday with the family, we used the camera pretty much every day and the footage that we got was incredible!! I've had cameras before that work well outdoors in full daylight, but once you move into low light situations the camera struggles and you end up with a very grainy picture, but I have to say the picture quality that I have had so far has been faultless! All in all, as you can probably can tell, I am very happy with my purchase, I have just bought the waterproof case, so I will be testing that out once it comes through and will update once I've tried it! Highly recommended, an exceptional value for money, high quality action camera :)Read full review

The K2 "pro" is very strange and downgraded product in my opinion. I'll start from the good: * Nice case of the product * 1/4 inch mount And now for the list of the bad: * Very not intuitive UI... ex. for taking photo need first to go to photo mode and then press on the photo mode button to take shot... * No 100m water proof case in the package. * The screen is not the one with the buttons but the touch screen - stupid solution for such small screen making it touch... very hard to use * Not all the settings can be found and set on the screen, phone app * Impossible to do timelaps in 4k [although the camera capable of making video of 15fps in 4K which is totally not useful...] * No firmware updates at all * No user manual on the official site * Very strange "weather proof" silicon case - which making it very hard to use the camera as you don't see the screen through it, hard to switch the camera/wifi on/off as it cover the switch buttons - and totally not sure how it going protect the camera....as the bottom side totally open * No auto start record on power plugged [car mode] *** BAD image quality - I compared 8MP, 12MP and 16MP photos which can be produced by this camera - the are same in detalization - meaning this is 8MP [or even less] sensor with interpolation [expected from Chinese cameras...but surely not from "UK" company] *** NO TIMED CONTINUES PHOTO SHOOTING!!!??? [the less expensive NPNG has it] The most amazing thing is when comparing with the less expensive NPNG camera is discovering that NPNG has: * Waterproof case [and many other accessories] * Firmware updates * User manual on official site * Timed continues shooting ----------------------- After contact the official company I got the answer that there's no firmware updates and they cannot say why they removed the timed continues photo shooting from this camera. As a developer in a company that work also with overseas customers I can say that such answer is far from been professional... Bottom line - stay away from the K-2 "4K" "Pro"... Read full review

Bought for on-motorcycle use. Didn't come with waterproof housing but silicone cover, which might be better, yet to test. Took me all day to work out that for some reason time lapse doesn't work on 720p setting, just 1080p or higher. Don't understand. But for what it is, and especially because it's one of the very few action cams I've found that allow PAL frame rates 25/50 fps, it's a great little gadget!

A great action camera for the price, the footage at 1080p or 2.7k is very smooth at 60 or 30 frames respectively. the 4K setting only works at up to 15 fps, but this can still get some great cinematic style or landscape shots, where the subject is not moving very fast. The camera includes a great range of mounts and offers good battery life. The rugged case is great for protecting your camera and taking it on holiday, keeping the camera and all the mounts safe.
