Score: 79/100
DJI Osmo Action 4
Score: 86/100Rankings
The DJI Osmo Action 4 Standard Combo is a compact action cam featuring a large 1/1.3-inch sensor, 4K/120fps recording, dual touchscreens and RockSteady/HorizonSteady stabilization, all housed in a rugged waterproof body. Drawbacks include a stiff battery door, lack of RAW or 8K video, and reliance solely on electronic stabilization. It is ideal for adventure enthusiasts and vloggers who need high-quality 4K footage with strong low-light capability and robust durability.
The ORDRO EP8 is a head-mounted camera delivering 4K60 video with a 2-axis gimbal and 130° field of view. Its battery lasts only about 1.75 hours at 4K and the rear screen is tiny, limiting on-camera control. Ideal for vloggers and action-sports enthusiasts who prioritize video quality over long recording time.

Professional reviewers commend the EP8 for its upgraded 130° field of view, 2-axis gimbal stabilization and fast 5 GHz Wi-Fi that speeds up 4K file transfers. They also highlight the night-mode performance of the STARVIS sensor and the rugged IPX5 build. Criticisms focus on the small rear screen, limited battery life at 4K60 and modest audio with a single mic, as well as photo resolution that feels padded.
Everyday users praise the EP8's smooth 4K60 stabilization, lightweight comfort for all-day head mounting, intuitive app control and vertical shooting mode for social media. Common complaints revolve around the short 4K battery life, the tiny rear display that hampers menu navigation, occasional Wi-Fi drops and wind-noise in audio recordings.
Professional reviewers praise the Osmo Action 4 for its larger sensor, 4K/120fps capability, 10-bit D-Log M color and robust 360° HorizonSteady stabilization, positioning it as a strong budget-friendly alternative to the GoPro Hero12. However, they note the stiff battery door and the lack of RAW video, 8K recording, and optical stabilization as drawbacks for high-end creators.
Everyday users love the camera's ruggedness, waterproof depth rating, and compact dual-screen design, often highlighting its ability to survive drops and perform well in low light. Recurring complaints focus on the difficult-to-open battery door and noticeable noise when shooting in very dark conditions.
