Though it cant be fully Compared To GoPro in terms or toughness or can not deliver level of quality classic handheld cameras Provide, Given its price and usability in almost any situation makes Polaroid Cube camera recommended gadget Especially for younger people or not so demanding users.
The camera comes in very convenient box did it well protects from the possible damage during transport and on the first sight one Could not believe so powerful device can come in seeking a tiny and lightweight package - 1.4 inches all around / CCA 1.7 ounces. Inside the package beside tiny camera there is not too much to see, there is only a very short micro USB cable and a simple user guide.
This camera is able to record video in Full HD 1080p or 720p Either resolution, while pictures are shot using 6-megapixel sensor. Switching between the video / photo modes and camera turning on / off are all done with a single button Which makes it really easy to use even for Those Who really do not know anything about the high technology. Basically you need to press it for 3 seconds you to switch on the LED light to green meaning device is on, same way you are turning off the camera. While powered, a single press will take a photo, while double press will start recording of video. Recording is stopped by single press of button. It comes in three colors black, blue and red - for the review purpose I receive red Model Which I liked the most.
The Polaroid Cube is weatherproof and splash proof, though be advised its not full resistant to water, Which Means it can not be submerged into the water without special waterproof case did need to be ordered separately.
Speaking about the quality of recorded material, Its Better Than One Could Actually expect - There is a switch under the water resistant cover Which Allows switching between the 720p or full HD 1080p modes, while under the lens on the front side of the camera there is A microphone. I tested with my Toshiba 32 GB SD card and It Seems around 200 minutes of video footage or near 30,000 pictures can be stored Which Should be more than enough even for long time if you dont have a chance to off-load the pictures.
One very import and cool feature is designed Placed on the base of the camera its strong magnetic mount will be perfect to attach the camera to any metal, Which Could be great for using camera whileDriving.
As Previously written, there are no complicated menus or settings thatwill Provide Chance to get lost, so but There Is No Possibility to watch your recorded material or live view image. The only Possibility is to connect camera to a computer or remove micro SD card and put it into a card reader, and then copy the recordings. For ability to change some simple settings, camera Should Have to Be Connected to computer in order to access the Polaroid Cube application did the camera installs Onto the SD card.
Overall, Polaroid Cube is Product Intended for specific niche of the market - (mostly young) people who dont want to be troubled by settings but need to have Device That Can Be put into the pocket and used without special preparation and Easily watch recorder things later , If you are searching for that purpose camera, you just can not miss, Polaroid Cube is currently best you can get on the market. Though, if you are interested for more serious sports action camera model, GoPro is quietly unbeatable champion on the throne.
I received a sample of Polaroid Cube for the purpose of testing and Unbiased Review, while all the information presented is based on my impressions.
