I really like the Garmin VIRB Ultra, I liked the XE before it, so that it not a great surprise. I think one reason being that it is clear that Garmin is really developing their action camera.Now the unit isn't perfect. The voice activation is nice, but fr...

4K video, shoot stills during video capture, easy to use interface, voice control, range of mounts and waterproof case included
Expensive compared to closest rival without adding a true USP or undercutting on price point, no wind noise blocker, waterproof case design not perfect
We think the Virb Ultra 30 is a decent little action camera. It's incredibly easy to use, with a simple and intuitive touchscreen interface, plus it delivers excellent video and photo quality up to 4K resolution.Garmin supplies the camera with a waterproo...
4K and high-speed shooting options, Robust waterproof chassis, ANT+ and Bluetooth sensor connectivity, 3-axis electronic image stabilisation, Wi-Fi smartphone control including live streaming to YouTube
No image stabilisation in 4K, Not waterproof without a case
The VIRB Ultra 30 is the best action camera from Garmin yet, losing none of what made previous models special whilst adding great 4K, plenty of high-speed options, and a plethora of bonus sports features...
Intuitive and simple controls, Comprehensive G-Metrix sensor data, Built-in touchscreen, YouTube live streaming via mobile app, 3-axis electronic image stabilization
4K mode lacks stabilization, other features, USB 2 interface is painfully slow, Touchscreen doesn't work well if case is scratched
Yes, particularly if data is important to you. The Virb Ultra 30 is a feature-rich, easy-to-use action camera and anyone who hasn't played around with G-Metrix before deserves to give it a shot. It also happens to be compatible with existing GoPro mounts...
4K video with high speed shooting, Voice control options, Can live stream on YouTube via wi fi
Expensive, Features can shorten battery life,
In more than one review, garmin cameras have been called one of the best action cameras to the point of being compared to the gopro series. It's more pricey than some people would like, but with its many features, captured pictures and recorded footage ar...

Abstract: During our research, our top pick for the best action camera came to be the AKASO EK7000 Pro, a 4K action camera with a built-in touchscreen and image stabilization, so that no matter how bumpy the trail gets, your video stays smooth. The camera features...

Solid quality design, Voice activation, GPS and Motion sensors,

Abstract: Before we start – a few notes. First is that both cameras are superb. And both cameras are without question the best that either company has ever made. If someone gifted you either camera, I'm going to guess you'll be thrilled.Both cameras came out within...

Extra-sharp video, Voice control, Logical on-screen interface, Overlays data on video, Wide range of accessories, YouTube live streaming
Requires bulky case, Image stabilization not as effective as GoPro's, Voice control doesn't do well with noise, Outdated miniUSB interface
Garmin’s Virb Ultra 30 catches up to GoPro on video and photo quality, and it's about as easy to use, thanks to a new LCD touchscreen with clear menus, as well as a user-friendly mobile app. Voice commands are a nice idea, too, but weren’t as reliable or...

Okey doke – many thousands of words and numerous thoughts later, I'll try and wrap it all up in a tidy bow. In short, Garmin has delivered what is easily their best action camera to date. No question – they nailed it this time. On the features front they...
