TomTom Bandit Action Camera (Base Pack)

The TomTom Bandit ably addresses several pain points with other action cams thanks to its quick mobile editing, versatile mounting system and removable battery.

• +

  TomTom's Bandit action camera uses built-in sensors to tag all the potential highlights in your clips to make editing easier. Its mobile app lets you quickly create a highlight reel just by shaking your smartphone. Charging and video/photo transfers can be done without a cable.

• -

  Though video quality is very good from the Bandit, you'll get better results for your $400 from GoPro's Hero4 Silver or Sony's Action Cam X1000V. Mounting plate doesn't securely lock. GPS and other sensor information is only used for tagging. No digital image stabilization.

Built-in motion sensors, GPS, manual tagging and easy operation are only the start of this ground-breaking action camera. The shake-to-edit feature cuts out the pain of editing and lets you upload your movies quickly and without fuss.

  Heavier than some rivals, Needs separate lens cover for waterproofing, Bullet shape makes some mount options tricky

Very good camera. Good media quality. Easy to work with design and software. Mobile app is awesome! Wish it came with a dive lense and a screen for viewing real-time media, but overall I am very happy with the Bandit!

Much nicer and user friendly than any other camera I've seen

I got this as my first attempt into recording my rides through the city as drivers are getting a little close! Yes it's a bit heavy on the side of my head but to be honest, I'd rather something there to cover me when I get hit by idiot drivers to back up my story.

Received camera with craced glass

Although i have not given this much use yet i thought i would try and review, very well made, its a shame it does not come with the waterproof lens cap though, for an outdoor camera how are you supposed to be driving a motorcycle and it starts raining hard?

Expensive for what it does, and a little awkward to mount.

I am on my 3rd camera (warranty swaps as TomTom are unable to repair the issue). The issue being ... I want to record in 2.7k @ 30fps (4k fps is too slow of a framerate and 1080p does not have a good enough picture quality) ...

Overheats easily - periodically stops recording, even with recommended cards of which I bought 6! Very unhappy with this, as I bought two and they are vital for me as I use them on my motor bike for front and rear recording ... very angry with this 400 quid purchase..

This was a terrible purchase. Lovely little camera, but does not work as it should. I really hoped this was the one, but sadly it looks better than it performs.

Great if you want to use it for still use (!!) Forget it if you want to use it in action shots. Cycling etc. Anything over 5mph and the wind noise is chronic - and I mean REALLY bad. Play back following a gentle bike ride was ruined by what sounding like a fighter plane.
