Polaroid Wave 4K Underwater Camera

We were going on a Caribbean cruise and I wanted to try an underwater camera. I didn’t want those disposable film ones because they only take 27 pictures and you don’t know how they came out until you develop them. I saw this and thought I’d try it. It does kinda look like a toy, but honestly I’m pretty pleased with the photos. We had waves wherever we went, so I was bobbing up and down so they’re not pristine. Also they look better once uploaded on your computer with some simple editing. Others mentioned the door not latching properly but I think that’s user error. You DO need to be sure of closing the door to the SD card/charging port and I wish it was designed a bit sturdier, because make SURE latch it closed. The camera floats; it’s very easy to use; very portable; and it takes very decent pictures. I love it

This is advertised a fully submersible camera up to 3 ft. They should advertise it at “water resistant” if it can’t be fully submerged AS ADVERTISED! The box even shows an image of someone snorkeling with the camera. I wouldn’t recommend that at all. Camera became fogged and completely failed after just one use. Used to film my baby in a kiddy pool no deeper than 6 inches at most. It floated around in the pool and I took photos and videos of my baby playing in the water. The lenses and screens quickly became fogged and eventually the camera gave out. All photos and videos were lost. The memory card was corrupted and water logged. I even made extra sure to close the memory card door properly to ensure it was sealed. It was not. You can see the rust stains from the internal components. Utter piece of garbage. I’ll be returning it immediately

I bought 3 of these for our 10, 8 and 6 year olds for a week of snorkeling. Two of them didn’t make it the week. They got water logged. They did great for 3-5 days but the constant use for the week long period seemed to be be more than they could take.

Super durable and easy to use. My kids use it in the pool and we recently took it to the waterpark at Six flags. It's very durable and takes pretty decent pictures and video. I wish it had dual screens so I can see what I'm taking pics of when we're doing family selfies but otherwise good camera. And great price! Watch for deals. I had it in my cart for a while and surprise! The price dropped $10! ($59.99) Learn how to use it before you take it out though because once you're out is kinda hard to see the icing on the buttons to know what to do.

I bought this for a trip to Japan where I knew I would want to be taking a ton of video. This camera is perfect for B-roll video that you might edit later into a YT video. I also use it for recording martial arts classes where I keep it running for an hour straight, or as a backup camera for interviewing someone. If I’m taking short videos, I use my iPhone, but this has been decent for keeping it running. Video is good, but audio is not stellar. It’s good enough for an interview, but not for recording music events. The back of the screen is plastic and got scratched up quickly. I recommend putting a screen protector on the back. For the money, it is good, but if you are needing top shelf quality, you need to spend more money.

I love that it’s small and light. I videotaped underwater while snorkeling and scuba diving. It performed beautifully without any water damage. Took bunch of videos in caves for my channel and did beautifully dry as well. It’s not a professional camera where you can zoom in and out. But it’s definitely a reliable one that’s light and easy to use.

I bought two of these cameras for my daughters to take to overnight camp since they couldn't bring iPhones to use as a camera. It is too late for me to return them since they were both gone for a month. These are not inexpensive cameras, but I still didn't have the highest expectation, but they didn't even come close to that low bar. Both girls took still and video. All the video is unwatchable and it is not from their skills at taking video. I have been watching their videos since they started using an old iPhone 3GS and they know how to hold the camera reasonable still. This video jumped all over and frames are just plain missed leading to choppy playback. The picture is grainy as well. I confirmed and the video says it is recording 1920 x 1080 @ 30fps and it saves as an AVI. Almost every picture is blurry. They were shot at 4896x3672 and it says most of them were f2.8. The problem there is likely the 1/15 or 1/25 exposure time they cameras were choosing. They never went in the water so I can't say how they did with waterproofing, but it doesn't matter. These things are total crap. I can see why polaroid has collapsed over the years. Don't waste your money on this product, even for your kids. For just a few dollars more you can get a much better actual camera or find an old iPhone which will run circles around this thing.

We bought this for our upcoming cruise trip so that our daughter has a camera on her own. I liked this camera when I first saw it because it was small, specs looked good and the best part was that it was waterproof (one of our use cases was that she should be able to use the camera on the beach). After using this camera for 5 minutes, we realized it is NOT a good camera at all. I am glad we bought it from Amazon so we could return it but these are the returns of us sending this camera back: 1. The picture quality is just pathetic - this was the deal breaker for us. 2. Browing the camera options through the buttons as well as the experience of the Polaroid Wave app is confusing. 3. It takes a considerably long time to download the photos using the app and you have to connect your phone to the camera wifi - during which time your phone is essentially useless. I could have worked around this issue by removing the SD Card from the camera and directly plugging it into your computer but I am very disappointed in the picture quality.

La. Batería le sirve para que grabes dos videos de 5 minutos máximo cada uno, sin contar con que la lente se empaña como al minuto 3 y obtienes un pésimo video. Por lo que cuesta hay cámaras genéricas de mejor calidad que este bodrio.

Bought this little gem to see if I would use an action camera. Very basic functions but it's all I wanted. It's sure better than risking my phone. The image is good with the right class 10 card. I love the blue color of the silicon sleeve. Makes it easier to see it. Good first time action camera at the right price point to "try it out".

Excellent Underwater Camera

Already have it , really its a good value for the same configuration 👍, im working in water sports activities and it help us really using it to take pictures to our customers and transfer it to them, really a good product with reasonable price .

Para fotografía tiene muy buen enfoque para selfies, fotos a un metro de distancia de la cámara tienen una excelente resolución. Para el vídeo necesita buena iluminación para realizar buenas tomas. Es una cámara para el día.
