Toshiba Camileo X-Sports action camera review - Pocket-lint

Sports cameras have attracted a lot of interest in recent times, with the Camileo X-Sports marking Toshiba's first foray into the market. Sports cameras

Price, video quality, lots of accessories in the box

Battery life, larger than competitors, controls a little fiddly, yellow cast

Overall, there's a lot to like about the Toshiba Camileo X-Sports. The options it offers and the quality of the results are good, albeit not best in class.

Toshiba Camileo X-Sports review

An afforable action camera to challenge GoPro

Remote control supplied ; Wi-Fi built-in ; LCD built-in

Buttons unresponsive when used in case ; Battery life limited ; Screen hard to see in bright light

Toshiba has put together a pretty enticing package that offers decent value for money. GoPro Hero3+ videos look a little better, but the X-Sports output comes very close and the Toshiba camera costs a lot less.

Toshiba Camileo X-Sports

Hands-on: See the Toshiba action cam focused on knocking GoPro off its action cam perch.

The Toshiba Camileo X-Sports is compact, easy to use and comes with a host of accessories to rival the GoPro. The true test will be in the shooting quality, but so far, we are impressed with what we've seen from this tiny little action cam.

Review: Toshiba Camileo X-Sports HD camcorder

The Camileo X-Sports is Toshiba's answer to a GoPro camcorder. At £180 (US$300), it lines up against GoPro's entry level Hero3, which itself retails for £199 ($330). Gizmag took a look at the Camileo X-Sports' specifications and how it performs.

At 94 g (3.3 oz), the Camileo is a little heavier than the GoPro, which comes in at 74 g (2.6 oz), but it's more compact, measuring 5 x 7 x 3 cm (1.9 x 2.9 x 1.2 in) against the GoPro's 10 x 25 x 10 cm (3.9 x 9.6 x 3.9 in).

Excellent camera

This camera is small lightweight and has an excellent picture, the sound recording on it even when at full record settings is quiet and quite directional. If your looking for sound over picture then this may not be for you. Other than that and the fact...

The Toshiba Camileo X-Sport is a brilliant little camera. Competing directly against the GoPro Hero 3+ Black the Camileo has it matched for substantially less. I purchased the Camileo after reading lots of reviews and comparisons simply because I...

Consumer review by: videobloke (productreview.com.au)

Cheap but inferior

This HD video camera is poor. It over exposes images in natural light - facial features in some light settings flare with white light. There is an inherent problem with its audio. There is a very annoying clicking noise on the audio track - it is very...

Poor quality product overall - there is nothing that can save this camera

Over exposure, noise on audio tack, poor colour and poor battery life
