I simply cannot get the Wi-Fi to connect via iSmart DV application. I tried on multiple Android devices, and it simply won't connect. I have contacted tech support and hope for a resolution, and will revise this review when I do, but till then... **UPDATE: The instruction booklet included says to use the "ISMART DV" application - this is wrong. The correct application to download is SOOCOO (just type that in Google Play Store). And it works beautifully, on pay with my Sony AS20's LiveView Remote. I have advised also to clarify that in the product description.** Not really surprising though. Wi-Fi action cams and camcorders in general really seem to be behind the ball when it comes to flawless execution. Battery life with Wi-Fi on is also harsh. Within 15 minutes, I went from full to 1/3rd remaining. Good thing this works/records while actively powered, even though this does rather limit remote control while in the waterproof casing. Speaking of the battery, I did also ask the tech folks if there is a specific recommended battery replacement link to purchase additional batteries. The included one seem like the typical 900mAh 3.33Wh 1A batteries used with the SJ4000, and I did measure the dimensions with digital calipers, the battery facing me as a horizontal rectangle. 28.6mm Wide 32.3mm Long 10mm High However, I also know that battery replacements aren't universal. Far from it, and the dozens of apparently correct batteries are a major hit-or-miss affair in fitting any given battery compartment. So I will update when I hopefully get a response on this question. That aside though, this is a great action cam in itself, and a great kit that it comes with. Color resolution is a tad dark, but very clear, recorded in MOV format, and the MIC is superb. Audio capture is a very important aspect to me, and quite a few action cams fail HORRIBLY with audio capture, in or out of the waterproof housing. It also has the DVR Dash Cam behavior of automatically beginning recording when active power is received via a micro USB cord, so this has plenty of functional flexibility. All the typical menu options are there too. With the Wi-Fi issue now resolved, all that is left to receive definitive assurance on the appropriate product page to buy the exact extra batteries, and then I would whole-heartedly give this five stars as a personally valued addition to my camera herd. -- I received this as a complimentary review product with the aim of hopefully elucidating features and drawbacks that may help you ultimately decide what fits your needs and budget best.
