Victure action cams
I'm in need of a new (affordable) camera for my bike (my Hero4 Session's battery will no longer hold a charge) and the 'Victure' brand has caught my eye over on Amazon. Does any one here use that brand, and if so, can you tell me how their quality is? I have a Victure mp3 player which is pretty good, so I know they can put together a good product, just curious about their cameras.
Thanks in advance.

I have been using the DJI Osmo action camera, and have been pretty impressed with it. It is compatible with GoPro mounts as well

Unfortunately, I procrastinated too long and missed out on the Hero4 Session that Iride01 linked to. Not too sure which camera / brand I'll go with. I've still got my eye on the Victure (ac820 / ac940) cams over on Amazon, but I also see some refurbished Hero+ plus LCD screen cams over on eBay for $40 or thereabout. I'd kind of like to stick with GoPro, but at the same time, I'd like a brand new, yet affordable, camera. Decisions, decisions. LOL!!

Well, I decided to go with the used / refurbed GoPro Hero+ with the LCD screen. It's not the fanciest camera out there, but for the "simple" recording I do (basically just ride videos), 1080p is fine. The seller provides a 90 day warranty, but if it should happen to die on day 91, I'm only out $35 plus tax. Once it arrives, I can start posting some new videos to my YT channel (it's been awhile since I've done so, but for health reasons, not because of the battery issue).
