UPDATE: Looks like the Xiaomi Yi Action camera has been sold out on Lazada Malaysia.
UPDATE 2: It is back but with a higher price of RM429.
UPDATE 3: Lazada has revised its price to RM399 but with 14 days return policy.
Always wanted to capture life’s epic moments without paying too much for a GoPro? The Xiaomi Yi Action camera is finally here in Malaysia and you can order it directly from Lazada.
While this isn’t an official Xiaomi Malaysia unit, it comes backed with a local supplier’s 1 year warranty and Lazada Malaysia will be handling its fulfillment with a 14 days return policy. It costs RM359 RM429 RM399, which is quite reasonable but obviously it is a premium over its original China pricing of 399 CNY, which is roughly RM230. It is available only in White.
In terms of specs, it uses Sony’s Exmor R 16MP Sensor which supports Full HD 1080p video recording up to 60 frames per second. Like the GoPro, you can control the camera remotely from your smart phone via WiFi. For storage, it supports microSD card up to 128GB and if you need to go underwater, it is possible with an optional waterproof case.
From initial comparisons, the Yi Camera seems to be quite impressive when compared with the more professional GoPro series. But a recent review from TechInAsia showed subpar results which could be a firmware issue. Nevertheless at such a low price, this could be your first action camera to try out just for fun.
