I don’t do a lot of unboxing posts, but I can’t help but share this one. Cherry Mobile recently launched its first action camera and I was surprised at the number of accessories that came with it.
Nice Package and a Lot of Accessories
The packaging itself belies the fact that the action cam only costs PHP3,999. It comes in a nice tall box with a hard clear plastic case. Once you open it, you’ll be immediately greeted by the action cam and the waterproof housing.
Inside is a plethora of accessories you can use for a lot of different scenarios. It comes with different types of mounts, a case with a screw hole, a monopod, some straps and clips. It even comes with replaceable face plates.
Quick Hands-On
In terms of build quality, the Cherry Action Cam feels good. It is pretty solid, and it’s smooth rubbery coating gives it a nice touch. The buttons are a bit clickety, but otherwise works well. The cam’s UI is simple and straight forward. You can control the cam through a Wi-Fi connection with its companion app “CACWF.” It is available for download for both Android or iOS.
Cherry Action Cam key specs:
- 170 degrees HD Wide Angle Lens
- 12MP Camera
- 1080p and 720p Video Rendering
- Built-In Monitor
- Loudspeaker
- Microphone
- Wi-fi Connectivity
- iOS & Android Supported
- External storage up to 32GB
- Battery: Up to 1.5 hours, 2 hour charging time
The power button is in front, with the recording/shutter button on top. On one side you’ll the speaker, and the navigation buttons that also control zoom and turns on/off the Wi-Fi. On the other side is the microSD card slot, the micro USB port and a micro HDMI port.
Here’s a quick tour of the Cherry Action Cam in photos:
Priced at PHP3,999, the Cherry Action Cam is quite decent for the price. It has a good design, a solid build quality, a simple UI for easy operation, and comes with a boatload of accessories.
I’ll post my review soon. For now, I hope you liked my first impressions and some close up photo of the Cherry Action Cam.
