Ok so I had received a camera from another seller for a few dollars more than this one and it was not a water proof camera and the pictures and video were the worst I have ever seen absolutely horrible. I was a little bit hesitant to get this one after the previous one but boy I am glad I did because this one does everything it should do!! The pictures and video are actually decent quality and your kid won't be wondering why you gave me this awful toy!!
Now for the people that have made comments about the sound being very muffled I am guessing are using the water proof case and expecting it to record sound with the video and that just is not going to happen and be water proof. You would have to spend way more money for a water proof camera that records good audio while being water proof at the same time. When I used it for video the sound was perfectly clear but note that the water proof case was not installed either.
I did test the case to be water proof by placing it in sink filled with water and placed a soap dish on top to keep it submerged for at least 30min and no water was inside the case. Too cold to actually try it in pool this time of year.
It was nice that this camera is 100% ready to go out of the box with built in rechargeable battery and a 32gb memory card. The included breakaway lanyard is nice and the silicone case fits perfectly but I was unable to open the usb door while the silicone case was installed but not a big deal.
The child can also use some built in background's and even has a timer.
All in all I will not be at all embraced to give this to my 7 year old kid because it does work like it should.
Hope this helps and thanks.
