The $64 GoPro Rival, Xiaomi Yi Action Camera

March 08, 2015 in Cameras, Lenses

Xiaomi Yi Action Camera on kitty feature banner Cameraplex Just announced - the all new Xiaomi Yi Action Camera. Cheaper than the mighty GoPro Action Camera, the Yi not only cuts the cost, but actually excels in much of its feature set. It sports a Sony Exmor R CMOS Imaging Sensor with a A7LS SoC Ambarella Processor. Amberella is a leading developer of low-power, HD and Ultra HD video compression and processing solutions. Whether the Xiaomi Yi Action camera has cherrypicked the best features and components to create the best action sports camera yet, or whether it's just another knock off remains to be seen. According to the specs it could be a contender for GoPro in due time.
