Xiaomi Yi Action Sports Camera (AU Stock) $99 Delivered @ Mushtato

690

As per the mushtato post the other day, they have just reduced the price of the Xiaomi Yi Action Cam Sports Wifi Camera in White.

This price is about $10 more expensive than if you were to purchase from overseas stores such as banggood and gearbest, however I think $99 is a great price for local stock.

Edit* See the post from badtzmaru56 below, you can also bundle the camera with the waterproof case for an extra $29.95

    people have been using these as dash cams if anyone is interested in that

    • +5

      Why not wait for the new Xiaoyi Dashcam?

      • +2

        oh that looks nice

    • Only if you're driving in a cool area. Otherwise the plastic will melt/deform.

      • So that rules out every dashcam then…

        • -1

          ..'cause there is only one type of plastic. Jobski may be correct in that the specific plastic in the action cam isn't rated for higher temperatures.

        • @TheContact: I have one infront of me and the plastic feels much tougher than my G1W-C.

        • @Clear:

          I made a timelapse video using one for about an hour and it warped. The battery was also deformed. So I advise against using it as a dashcam.

        • @jobski: That's disappointing. It's probably going to be the same for all of their variants too. Best to wait for the Xiaoyi dashcam then.

  • You mean $10 more expensive than overseas ? http://www.gearbest.com/action-cameras/pp_153557.html

    • +12

      It is about $10 cheaper from overseas

      Yes, that's exactly what that phrase means ;)

      Oh, and there's a good reason Gearbest are banned on here

      • +1

        Lol what was I thinking ? Excuse my English. Good find !

      • +2

        Cheers, just to avoid confusion I have tried to word it a little better.

      • +3

        omg +1 for banning GB.. when did that happen ?

      • Damn, I bought the EKEN H9 from Gearbest yesterday.

  • +2

    This or GoPro Session?

    • +8

      this

    • 2 of these. Or the Sony as20

      • I was wondering about Sony cams, I think image stabilisation is quite important but having just seen the prices of the accessories I'm quite happy to forget about them again!

        Do any of these well-rated budget cams have an LCD so I at least know what I'm shooting at, especially when snorkelling?

  • does this come in a waterproof case?

    • No, have to buy separately.

    • answering my own question…
      No, it doesnt.
      costs $40 from the store.

      • Make sure you buy the official one. Already drowned one while it was on a "waterproof" case

        • +3

          You must've bought the "Waterproff" case lol

        • +1

          @montorola: it was the Red 40m version everyone on the forums recommended. At least I have a spare parts now

        • -4

          @montorola:

          You must've bought the "Waterproff" waterPOOF case lol

          FTFY

  • Does anyone know if this case for around $20 from aliexpress would be genuine Xiaomi? I haven't ordered much from Aliexpress, is it highly regarded?

    • +1

      A few people in the feedback have said that it's fake and the Xiaoyi box is poor quality. The genuine ones seem to be selling for about $25 US currently.

  • +5

    There's a deal on ebay for same camera AU $22.99 delivered
    http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/321941636382?euid=e0e63a62c395431…
    ofc it looks suspicious, but it's protected by paypal

    • +4

      Its definitely dodgy. Look at seller's feedbacks. Most purchase are $0.99 and some users are not even registered.

      • +2

        100% Dodgy, those bait listings come up on eBay all the time! You will have to wait quite a while for Paypal to give your money back…

    • so tempting..

    • Protected by paypal but its almost guaranteed that you'll need to lodge a case in late january when it hasnt arrived yet. not worth the potential benefit (as I believe there really isn't any)

  • -4

    cheaper on banggood

    • +5

      OP already stated that it's cheaper on banggood..

      • -5

        ok i didnt read that

        • +1

          OP already stated that it's cheaper on banggood..

  • +2

    Far out I bought this from Mushtato a week ago for $129 :(

  • +2

    Mine still going strong, bought from mushtato back in May. Active community, hacks for more bitrates works pretty well

    • Good to hear mate. Any advice on accessories such as the waterproof case? Where to buy etc?

      • +1

        No brand waterproof case from ebay seller, works fine. Dual battery charger and two batteries from bangood. Softcase with lens cap from gearbest.

    • +1

      Where do you get these so called hacks?

  • +2

    I'm not sure how much better the gopro is but this is an awesome sports camera for $100
    With the hacked firmware people get 30-50 Mbps data rates.
    Note though that you need to buy all mounts and cases separately. Cheap enough though.

    • Where did you get the mounts and cases?

    • check out gearbest website.
      it has a normal camera screw hole for mounting. But you can get a gopro style adapter for a couple dollars and then use any gopro mount.

  • +1

    If I order this now will I get it before christmas ?

    EDIT:It would be 50/50 getting it before next christmas from Banggood .

    • I got mine 2 weeks after I ordered from BG.

    • +1

      Mushtato were really quick for delivery with me to brisbane.

    • +1

      you're getting BG mixed up with GB (gearbest)

      • Yes . You are bang on . I meant gearbest .

  • is there anything they don't make ?

    • +1

      Xiaomi ftw!

      They're like how Logitech is to PC gear, cheap but good!

    • they make 2 dollar USB fans which are good and also make lamps…. electronic weighing scales and heaps of good stuff :D

      i love xiaomi but have a funny feeling if they tried to launch their phones in USA/UK/AUS they will be sued into oblivion by patent holders

  • +3

    Can the Mushtato rep do a deal on the waterproof case as well?

    • +5

      I agree. Would be good to get a deal on the case too!
      Their web store has it for $49.95 but their ebay store is selling it for $39.95. I'd love to see it for $20 :)

      EDIT* I just contacted the rep and they said they will do a deal on the waterproof case

      • +1

        Nice!! Will wait for the bundle! Would be great to get the monopod stick in there as well!

        EDIT: I notice you can bundle it with the waterproof case for $29.95 - is that what the rep meant?

        • +5

          Yes ;)

        • @mushtato:

          How do we bundle?

          EDIT: Ahh nvm, got it

        • @mushtato:

          Thanks, was thinking about this but when I saw you could bundle, done deal!

        • @Fluffyduck77:

          how do i bundle?! lol

      • +1

        Thanks cvas, you're a legend!

  • Any thoughts comparing this one to the one Aldi is selling on Saturday?

    • Seems the Aldi one only does 1080p@30fps vs. 1080p@60fps for the Xiaomi!

      • +1

        *2K@30fps for Xiaomi

      • Xiaomi Yi uses Sony sensor.

        • awesome, thanks. so, 60fps = slow motion?

        • @kiwipride: 720p@100fps looks even better

      • 1080p@60fps is not as good as @30fps, i think its due scalation or something like that.

        2k@30fps is pretty good

  • is this the same as featured in geekbuying?

    http://www.geekbuying.com/item/Xiaomi-Xiaoyi-WiFi-Action-Cam…

    • +1

      Yes, but this is a local store selling.

  • +3

    The case is out of stock, but I want to bundle it. What now?

  • Great price, ordered along with a few powerbanks for stocking fillers.

    I'm also seeing the case as sold out, anyway we can still get these at the reduced price when back in stock? :)

  • +1

    +1 - have ordered the camera but also want the waterproof case.

  • +1 for a waterproof case deal

  • I am in need of the case too!

  • If I wait for a couple more days, will the waterproof case come back in stock for the bundle deal?

    waits

  • +1

    Thanks guys for supporting Mushtato
    Both camera and waterproof case all sold out in 17hrs
    For those haven't got one on this amazing 99.00 deal, We'll get more in.
    For the rest of us, enjoy the action - cam.

    Happy Christmas.

    I just bought one from this seller on eBay. Contacted him before hand if to ensure it was genuine xiaomi and not a copy. This was his response

    "Hi,
    This genuine 100% Xiaomi branded product. I can 100% guarantee you."

    Anyway $35 AU stock with the 3% cashrewards I'm willing to take a shot at it.

  • Just got this email:

    "Thank you for shopping with Mushtato.
    The Xiaomi Action Cam Waterproof Case is currently out of stock due to high demand.
    We didn't expect it can be this popular and run out of stock.
    Our apologize for this unexpected incident and any inconvenience.
    Would you like us to partially refund this item from your order and ship out the rest?

    Please kindly let us know as soon as possible.
    Thank you for your patience and understanding.
    Looking forward for your reply."

    OP? Both the cam and the case were in stock the other day when I purchased them.

    I don't even know how to reply to this email?

    • Same here… Just got a case off eBay, $14 local stock, non genuine. hopefully get it before Thailand in January

  • My order just got shipped :DD

  • Damn missed out, spent one day too long thinking about it! Ah well.

  • Anyone received theirs yet?

  • I just noticed white ones have come back in stock, but at $129. Worth keeping tabs on in case they drop in price again.

    I'll be interested to hear feedback from those who bought one!

    • they are good, but i am having HEAPS of trouble getting the app to connect to the camera.
