Some of the accessories are a bit expansive..like the Wi-Fi remote control is around 250-300 dh

There is this shop in Deira I brought mine from him ,shops name is al gadgets he sold go pro hero 3 black edition with standard accesories for 1.6k with warranty brought a suction cup for 140 or something extra . But honestly the wifi drains battery like crazy and it's pointless if ur doing long trips .

Were doing some research to buy GoPro Hero4 Black or Silver and found an alternate product (SJ4000) in just 1/6th of the price of GoPro Hero4.

Obviously, Hero4 is comparatively far more better product with very superior quality but SJ4000 also serves the purpose for casual use in just AED 300.

I've got SJ4000 (Wifi) for 1 month now. I owned Hero(the first one) before and used shooting motocycle trips + diving. I never used SJ for diving yet and I could say it is a pretty good one if you are not gonna make professional clips. The battery life is a bit short (comes with a spare one though) and it has got everything you need. I just added a monopod and car holder and a 32GB sd card; total package was around 120USD and arrived within 20 days with free shipment.

There are even better ones than GoPro for the price, and SJ is the best p/p action cam in the market at the moment for personal records.

PS: SJ Wifi does not have a remote, it allows you to connect your wifi device to the camera and download the files. It is not a great feature though, I always prefer the old school method: cut&paste from the sd card.

Just my two cents...

I ordered SJ4000 from Souq.com in AED299 and receive in just 1 day. I also order Car Holder with car charger (long cable), so shorter battery life (70 min) will not be a problem. Wifi or Bluetooth remote is not a good option as it drains battery very fast.

If you have Iphone, Android, just use vidometer app for a wide array of features like, speed, g-forces,maps,elevation, bearing, coordinates & so on. + excellent video footage :015:
