How much do you sell the SJ4000 WIFI using novatek 96655 chipset?

Original SJ4000 WIFI sports Camera Review Made By Jody Antelife - YouTube

Hi

After several testing we are not going to use Novatek for the SJ4000 wifi.
We have our reasons and would not disclose it here.

We have tested Sunplus, Icatch and novatek.
each has their own advantage pairs with he right Cmos sensor.

We will use Novatek + Sony CMOS for new model but not SJ4000.

i find it silly, people, factories are accusing copy here and there.
Being SJ4000 is the copy of gopro it seem funny to say another copy of Sj4000.

SJ4000 itself was born from the open source of chipset solution which has been used by the DVR industry.

It is open source that any factories can buy and assembled and you don't need such a high tech set up for such manufacturing.

Thanks

:s12::s12:

hi there

we are developing the new models but it will take sometime.

if you see the SJ5000w in the youtube, that is Novatek + Sony Cmos 2M
We are waiting for the PCB for the 12MP Sony CMOS and will try the video quality.

If you see the video, the color is very soothing and not over blasted and the pixel quality is good.
Problem the casing is not that fitting as it is using gopro hero3 casing.
I need to solve this before we can go into mass production.
this mold is totally new in china and not a copy.

hi there

in terms of photo quality, mobile phone is much better.
mobile phone are equipped with good software to make photo quality better.

but in terms of video, viewing angle and portability, action cam is away to go.
Another issue is cost?
POSH action camera is cheap and if you drop it with the waterproof casing, the camera are well protected.

if you use your expensive mobile phone, it is a waste to use it in rugged environment.

Is the SJ4000 fixed focus or autofocus?

Mine is always focused very near, making everything else a blur. I can't seem to correct this problem through software. But once in a while I get "lucky" and the focus turns out good.

Can anyone advise why is this happening? Did I get a defective unit?

then why did you guys didn't even bother to rename the model number to differentiate yourself from the original SJCAM SJ4000?

seems to me you guys are no better yourself by bashing the model which your POSH cams were based on in the first place.

want to avoid similar question then do a total rebrand. don't blame consumers for asking.

hi

thank you for the feedback.
We do want to change the model number before we launch Posh action camera but due to our retails partners insisting that we keep the generic model number for marketing and awareness purpose.

we do not blame consumer for asking the difference.
we do not accuse other brands or importer as fakes.

we practice fair competition.

Cheers

I want to offer myself one SJ4000. I tried to catching some cheaper stuffs from Chinese Wholesale sites.
I saw this one from Tinydeal.
But i doubt it if this one from tinydeal is a fake item. I checked on website. The original one always signed "UMOX"
Anybody can give me the answer?

I suggest you advice your retail partners to rename if that's the reason for using the same name as other makers.

Simply because you would not want to associate your product with other inferior "SJ4000". Search through the web & you can find instances of consumer complain things like grainy image and such from other "SJ4000" and therefore label as fakes.

Anyway, for some it's becoming so confusing that they might be better off with a GoPro for that piece of mind.

All the better of GoPro Company the SJ4000 is produce by so many with different specs until consumer gets confuse and wary of a particular SJ4000.

Also a hassle for you guys to explain this & that brand SJ4000 is not yours. Consumers don't see the word "POSH" when buying, instead SJ4000.

Hi Setiardi,


Thank you for the suggestion.
to explain further, our non wifi are the same as SJcam or produced by the same factory.
For the wifi, we have decided to move away from them and have our own facility and We have our reasons for doing that and one of the reason is as below.

SJcam itself is a new name adopted recently and prior to these, the factory do not use this brands or name. SJCam started their own campaign in August to deter competitor and brands themselves as original SJ4000
but the irony every factories claim they own and produce SJCAM.
Techmoan review claim that SJCAM come from company "XXXX" but the website of SJCAM.com come from another factory "YYYY"
If you need to know the actual factory name, PM me. I can open up to you.

We are very lucky on our strategy that we stick to our own brands or label our own brands from day 1, rather following SJ4000 as a brand and SJCAM branding where they have internal wars and many customers are not aware which is the real SJCAM.

We would like to educate our customers that SJ4000 is a generic model.
Which started with 2 factories making them and now has more 10 factories.
We are not too concern about customers outside asking and comparing the difference on our POSH with the others. So far we have many satisfied customers on our quality and warranty support.

Everyday I receive email from different factories offering me SJ4000 and SJCAM as the news has spread that POSH has a volume in Singapore.

Hope this give more insight about what is going on.
