The editors liked

  • You’ve probably heard of the famous GoPro line
  • Used to record the antics of scuba divers and off piste snowboarders alike. The Liquid Image Ego is its closest rival
  • And deals the GoPro an almighty blow by substantially undercutting it
  • It costs £160
  • Compared to £230 or up for a GoPro.And yet
  • The footage is still excellent
  • You can shoot in full HD 1080p
  • Or at twice the framerate in 720p HD -
  • Small
  • Light and attractive
  • Easy to use
  • App connectivity useful
  • Good-looking design
  • 60fps mode
  • Boasts internal Wi-Fi

The editors didn't like

  • The pricier GoPro does have a few advantages over the Liquid Image Ego
  • For one it comes with waterproof housing in the box. The Ego is splash resistant
  • But you shouldn’t go diving with it
  • Not until the separate housing accessory goes on sale in the near future anyway. For beach bums and surfers this might be a bit of a disappointment
  • Though cyclists will cope fine without.It's also a bit more
  • Average video quality
  • Pronounced lens barrel distortion
  • Sensor struggles with highlights
  • Limited fittings included
  • Not fully waterproof

  • Small, light and attractive, Easy to use, App connectivity useful
  • Average video quality, Pronounced lens barrel distortion, Sensor struggles with highlights
  • With GoPro becoming the go-to brand for action cameras, the Ego's arrival provides a welcome alternative for this fairly niche market. Undercutting the GoProHero 2 by around £50, you can save a few quid by opting for this camera - as long as you don't mi...

  • It may not have the big branding of the GoPro line, but the Liquid Image Ego is a great sports camcorder nonetheless with remarkable endurance. Better yet, it’s even got Wi-Fi built in so you can livestream with it, though you may not always have much ...

  • Good-looking design, 60fps mode, Boasts internal Wi-Fi
  • Limited fittings included, Not fully waterproof
  • The Liquid Image Ego is just about the cutest action camcorder we've used. And with the ability to shoot at 1080p or at 60fps, it's not a bad performer too. Unlike many at the price, it also hooks up to your iPhone or Android phone using its own Wi-Fi ...

  • Build Quality, Size, Good Image/Audio Quality, Built-In Wi-Fi, Mini HDMI Output, Liquid Image Android App, Price (For Some),  ,
  • Bundle (Just A Basic Mount Included), Night Recording Quality,
  • There are three types of manufacturers in the market as we speak, the ones who focus in performance (audio/video quality in our case), the ones who focus in price and the ones who try to find the sweet spot between both. Unfortunately judging by all the a...

  • The Liquid Image Ego is very small and lightweight; simple to operate; has built-in Wi-Fi; uses a standard 1/4-20 tripod mount; and is shockproof to about 6 feet
  • Limited shooting options, tiny on-camera controls and screen, 29-minute clip length limit, not waterproof, only one mount included, like many cameras, includes no storage, battery isn't removable, Wi-Fi connection lost while recording
  • The egg-sized Liquid Image Ego wins on size and simplicity, but its features -- outside of built-in Wi-Fi -- are minimal.

  • wielokolorowe obudowy, niezłe wykonanie, jakość obrazu, WiFi
