The Yi Lite, as long as I've owned it for the past 2+ years, has been the budget action camera champ in my book. Because it's been around now for quite some time, I'm wondering if Yi has been developing its successor. To me, building on its success would add the following features to cater the growing vlogger community: 1. An external mic input. 2. A flip-up display screen, and 3. A non-distortion wide angle lens (no fisheye).

I bought the Yi lite and so far I’m liking it. For $94 delivered including their waterproof action case I feel it’s the best value out there. Agreed the S9 camera is just amazing. Also the Yi lite app works pretty good with the S9. Thanks for the video and take care! Bill

I've been dissapointed with Yi Lite for missing one of the simplest and basic options: Flip recording (invert image). And after reading praise about their involvement in customer support, all I got a few months ago is a statement that it will be implemented in some future firmware update. After all that time... I'm thinking Mijia 4k. And night recordings look significantly better.

Quick question. I have the Yi 4K and I love the Loop Mode for vlogging. This way it chops your footage into 5 minutes files. Ideal for media management if you continiously shoot like me. Does the Yi Lite has the Loop Mode?

I'll add one side note here; My main action cam is the ActiveOn CX Gold. It too does not have any covering over the holes where the USB cables go in. However, I have never had a problem with getting sand or dirt inside. For the record, I rarely ever use the plastic case when I'm recording my videos. But ..... I did buy an ipod case at the Dollar Store which I carry the camera around in when not in use. So that is my experience with not having a cover over the holes, for what its worth.
@TheEverydayDad

I almost never use the case for my action cameras since they are almost always in a gimbal. (That's the only reason I've held onto the gopro this long) But even filming this episode it was a misty day where everything was damp and the camera definitely got some drops on it and after a rather ignoble half fall some dirt got around it too. I dont know if any got in the ports but eventually through a lot of use it will 😳

I have a short story for ya; I was recording a video one rainy day when my action cam fell over and landed in a small puddle. Nope, I was not using the protective plastic case. It seemed fine, but when I tried recording the next clip the camera would not power up. I was worried I had shorted out the electronics. (gasp!) I even switched batteries, but nope, it would not power up. When I got home, I dried it out, and wham, it turned on again. Whew, my action cam has been working ever since. Yes, I should have been using the protective case in the rain, but I never carry that around with me.

Have you had any issues with any of your GoPro or Yi cameras so far? I've been using 1 canon g7x & 3 sjcam4000's for like 3 years now mounted on a Samson MK-10 boom mic using their frame mount + a 1/4 male to female thread - And they still work fine (though I don't know if one is a fake or not, but it still works lol) BUT, one of my cameras gave out on me the other day.. I think I've narrowed it down to these, but if you know something else that would fit my needs better Please let me know. Cuz if the one I get is way better than my Sjcam's then I might get 2 more (so, cost is a factor) GoPro Hero 5 Black refurbished = $220 each ($170 after $50 trade in for my sjcam4000) Yi-4K (not 4K+) = $150 from their website...but no trade in offered. *I do like that the GoPro Hero 5 Black has the Linear mode (cuz fish eye looks weird on drums) **I also use Screenflow 7, if that makes a difference with those 2 cameras above. These will be for KZitem drum videos, SO... 1. I don't really need stabilization (unless it will help with #6) 2. I don't really need 4k either actually.. 3. I'll be shooting in 1080p 30fps, MAYBE 60fps (if I feel like it would look cool) 4. The cameras will be on a Samson MK-10 boom stand using their frame mounts + GoPro Tripod adaptor. 5. I don't need the audio to be great (I get my audio edited) 6. I've noticed my bass drum does cause the video to shake with my Canon G7X (1st one, not mark 2), but that could just be because it's heavy while attached to my boom stand. 7. BUT they will be in low light. I use 2 neewer 176 LED lights, black background on my walls, no other lights on. Thoughts? 🤔🤔 Thanks in advance! 😊

Would you recommend anyone special by these intentions: dont care much about 4k, just want enough fps to be able to slow down sections. Going to use it in soccerpractice most of the time, static and head/chest-strapped. Not really tied to a budget but would love to see it as cheap as possible due to risks in training getting it damaged. Do you have any favorites to propose? :)
