Advantages: I was searching for many days to find an action cam.Finally I decided to go for the Hawkeye 8s.I decided to buy the 90 degrees version as I do not like the fish eye effect of the 170 degrees cameras.The product was dispatched very fast and delivered in less than 2 weeks.Package was perfect and contained so many accessories.When I opened the camera I updated to the latest firmware in order to get the new gyro 2.0.The camera video is amazing. Very crisp and clear. Stabilization is working fine too.Battery life is adequate.Shots in 4K demand a high speed card so be aware.
Limitations: In some cases the camera seems to be stack. It does not open. The solution is very easy: Get the battery out and put it back. This was happening in both the original firmware and the latest one.Video is perfect. Audio is awful. This is why I rated it 4 stars and not 5. Recording level is extremely low. There is an external micro that can be used.

Best 4k Action Camera
Advantages: At this price just a fantastic piece of camera is made. At first I had some trouble operating or finding the functions which I wanted to change but then it was easy once you go through all the various options available in this action camera.It is very useful as car dash cam, for riding on motorcycles especially in my country as safety is a major concern.
Limitations: Build quality is not so good but can resist some impacts, but be careful handling it.The camera app in phone of the live video lags about a second in phone.Also, there are some heating issues faced when charging.

Great cam for small price
Conclusions: Really great camera. It has the same sensor like GoPro 5. 4k videos are really awesome. It is a pity that stabilization does not work in 4k.

Hawkeye firefly 8s
Advantages: -Alternate camera to GoPro. Much less expensive but still good quality for this price. Probably the best cheap Gopro clone -Excellent camera. Video image is stable and high definition with great colour rendition. Easy to use, especially with the Bluetooth control. Nothing bad so far, of the several cameras I have the 8S is the best by far.
Limitations: This camera has a little battery The package should have a microphone!

GoPro Alternatives
Conclusions: Good and cheap alternative to GoPro. If you are fan of sport camera this is the best and cheap alternatives for a GoPro, it work good from all aspect, except for sound recording ! it's not quiet good to be honest but If that something you want so badly fire fly has some kind of external microphone to fix that.

Firefly 8s90 degree FOV Brilliant bit of kit
Conclusions: If you are looking for a GO PRO alternative for a fraction of the price look no further than the Hawkeye Firefly 8S 4k 90 Degree FOV
It is an awesome piece of kit that gives great quality images that are very stable and none of those nasty curved straight lines or bulging buildings from some of those wider angled lensed cameras gives
I personally searched through 200 cameras and waited 2 years for this item to finally come into the marketplace at this price point.
I don't think you could find a
