I can't tell if the camera is frozen or if the screens themselves just stop working. The screen would go black but stay lit and the camera would still beep when I clicked any button. Crashing/UnresponsivenessĪs mentioned earlier, the most common issue I kept running into was the camera becoming unresponsive. After completing the setup, things started to get worse as the camera itself consistently encountered a few major issues, and there's a good chance that many of these are related to each other. The problems began with a tedious initial setup process which involved connecting the camera to the app (which took about five minutes just to connect) followed by updating the software which caused the app to crash twice before it was finally successful. Overall, I found the Brave 8's software and companion app to be unreliable to the point that it frequently would prevent the camera from being usable at all. I appreciate that Akaso has included many of the most important attachments to get you up and running with the camera without needing to buy too many accessories. The packaging looks nearly identical at first and overall it felt premium. The unboxing experience is very similar to GoPro. Before I dig deeper into these issues, let's start by looking at its features and what's included. Before I could complete all my tests, the camera has completely stopped working. Unfortunately, though, a few days into testing the camera, it became very apparent this was not going to be a smooth review experience. In my few weeks with the Brave 8, I tested its various video and photo modes and used them while riding my bike, running, and vlogging. Although the Brave 8 offers an easy-to-use interface with several video and picture modes and manual controls, the user experience has been bumpy, to say the least. Great specs and features will only get this camera so far.
