The original Action Cam Explorer was a decent GoPro alternative thanks to its reasonably good features for the money. Its next iteration though, the Cherry Mobile Action Cam Explorer 2, is quite an upgrade. While its imaging capabilities remain the same, it’s now a much smarter action cam thanks to Android.
We had seen the Action Cam Explorer 2 a few months ago when it was first revealed in Germany of all places. Now though, we’ve got a better look at the complete specs. First, it has a 170 degree wide angle lens and is capable of capturing 12mp stills and Full HD video at 30fps. Second, it runs Android 5.1 and is driven by a 1.3GHz MT6580 quad core processor by MediaTek. It also comes with 1GB RAM, 8GB of internal storage, WiFi connectivity, and a 1,050mAh battery.
It’s interesting to see an action cam’s specs read like a smartphone’s spec sheet. What I like though is that the Cherry Mobile Action Cam Explorer 2 comes with smart features while keeping the price low at just Php5,999. So if you’re looking for an awesomely priced GoPro alternative, the Explorer 2 is a nice option you can buy right now.
