Eken H9s is the latest generation action camcorder that is having a fairly good success for its excellent value for money, especially for 1080p to 60ps shooting.
Once opening the box we were impressed by the huge amount of accessories inside it. The cam is well done, stored in one of the provided cases, the waterproof one. It is equipped with a large LCD screen of 2″, good materials which give immediately a sense of strength and quality.
On/off button are on the front, while on the top there is the key for recording / shooting. On the side, the two buttons up / down, and on the other side the micro HDMI output, micro USB and the MICRO SD slot.
Technical features
-sensor omnivision OV4689 from 4MP (with integrated chipset surplus sensor 6330M)
Registration Modes:
720p 120fps great for slowmotion
1080p 30 to 60fpsfps good for all a30f videos
1080p 60fps
2k 30fps good compromise instead of 4k
4K 25fps is definitely not the best option to choose from
The memory card must be purchased separately, but choose a high quality standard!
Advice for registration
You can record by choosing any of the above options, but surely the best one remains 1080p at 60fps, with a surprising quality of video, excelent cosidering the cheap price you pay for the cam
The 4k despite the quality offers nothing more than the 1080p, and indeed the videos will certainly be more shaky and less fluid.
Software and Updates
Practical and convenient download from Eken’s Facebook page. Just follow the instructions to install it. It also has a wifi connection with the smartphone (you will have to activate the Eken wifi with the down arrow on the side).

Conclusions
Obviously if you are looking for a twin of the GoPro, you got the wrong Cam!
But if you are looking for a Cam that films great videos without spending much, the Eken H9s is widely the best one in the marketplaces. Especially if you use it at 1080p at 60fps. If you have further doubts, just look up the videos made with the Eken H9s on the net and you’ll realize by yourself.
