XS100I: mixed review / mixed review !!!

Polaroid Waterproof Camera XS100i for action sports Extreme Edition HD 1080p 16MP WiFi with mounting kit included (Electronics)

Customer Review

in French:
I explain why the "mixed"

In normal use (I mean by that: NO under water), I think it is a good camera that makes beautiful movies ... provided you have a good brightness (for indeed the image ' noise 'if not enough light!)
I have not yet had the opportunity to test a lot, so I would complete my review if possible? !!

For cons, I used during my last vacation to the sea and there, not great at all .... unusable see movies !!
Let me explain:
In fact, when I used it on the sand or the water's edge (OFF water): do not worry, the image was sharp (although sometimes a little too red ... may be due to strong sunlight?)

But UNDER water for snorkeling (swimming with flippers / mask) between 0 and -5 meter deep: the images are all FUZZY!
So blurred that I can not use them for a holiday movie !!!

To be sure, I took my other camera (not chèremade in china) and I rode next to the xs100i to shoot the exact same thing at the same time and the result was simply AMAZING ...:
- Xs100i pictures: inoperable car image always blurry underwater !!!
- Camera 'made in china': clear image compared to the XS100I

I am really disappointed with this product because I thought the product image "Polaroid products were good ... but I have the impression that not all or not anyway !!

Has anyone noticed this? and if so will he has something to correct this problem?

In ENglish:
I explain why "mixed" review

With a normal use (by "normal" I mean: NOT under water), I guess that's a good camera qui do some nice movies ... if you-have Good lighting (Because if not: you will picture Have some 'noise '= bad quality)
I did not used it very Often in that 'normal' fashion so I will comeback here to my complete review if possible? !!? !!

But, I used it During my last vacations at the sea and there, not good ... because movies unusable !!
I explain:
In fact, when i used it out of water (on the sand, etc ...), I Had No probelm: sharp image (ALTHOUGH the picture was very very RED (due to the sunshine)?)

Purpose under water to Do Some snorkeling entre 0 to -5 m: Was always blurred the pictures!
Too blurred to be used for a vacation movie !!!

To be safe, I Took my other camera (made in china cheap) and I mounted it just to be near my xs100i ble to record exactly the same things in the same time and the result is .... OMG ... unbelievable:
- Xs100i pictures: Because unexploitable always blurred under water !!!
- Camera 'made in china': clear picture in comparison of the XS100I

So I'm very disapointed about this product Polaroid Because I Was That Was thinking good products ... but it's sccm not? !!

Does anybody saw this same problem? And if yes, is there something to do to properly That problem?
