This week marks 4 years since I first started working with GeekBuying here at OzBargain. Hard to believe it was so long ago! GeekBuying and I can't thank the community enough for their support over the years. Not to mention scotty and the rest of his team for their hard work :)

Onto the deal we have the Xiaomi-backed Seabird Action Camera that features True 4K Recording (no interpolation), Image Stabilisation and Lens Distortion Correction. Under the hood is a Hisilicon Hi3559 SoC and a 13MP Sony IMX258 sensor with a 150-degree F/2.6 wide angle lens. It's capable of resolutions including 4K@30fps, 2.7K@30fps, 1080@60fps and slow motion at 720@120fps as well as RAW support.

At the rear is a 2" touchscreen for playback and settings including white balance, ISO, EV, shutter, sharpness, saturation and brightness. In video mode you can switch between normal video, slow motion, time lapse and in photo mode you can switch between HDR, burst, timer and time lapse.

The camera has a removable 1050mAh battery that offers up to 90min of 4K and 150min of 1080p recording. Officially supports MicroSD cards up to 128GB. For connectivity it has WiFi 2.4Ghz/5Ghz and Bluetooth as well as an app for extra control.

      It has the standard screw hole at the bottom for accessories including GoPro.

    Waterproof?

  • SpeedRunnerLink on 23/01/2019 - 20:10

    Do they make a chest or back pack strap of some sort ?

      No but it'll work with any GoPro or compatible accessories.

  • 4wd on 23/01/2019 - 20:16

    Does it have to be attached to a Mi account before it becomes useful?

    • AssociatedClear @ Geekbuying on 23/01/2019 - 20:18

      Not at all. Seabird are funded by Xiaomi and the app is independent of the Mi Home app.

        Thanks Clear for the support, you really have sold me.
        Just added this to my 'To buy list' :).

  • knobbs on 23/01/2019 - 20:23

    Hows the stabilization compare to the Hero7 black?

    • funk44 on 23/01/2019 - 20:24

      looks decent enough according to this review

      • AssociatedClear @ Geekbuying on 23/01/2019 - 20:27

        For an even smoother experience use it with a gimbal ;) The Hohem iSteady Pro is the most budget one you can get for around ~$120

        • knobbs on 23/01/2019 - 20:31

          I strap this to my body for recording mostly hikes so gimbal is not an option. Plus the extra hassle of having 2x things to charge/buy spare batteries/switching them out mid walk, no go.

          • AssociatedClear @ Geekbuying on 23/01/2019 - 20:34

            @knobbs: There are wearable gimbals like the Evo SS and FeiyuTech WG2 though that would be an extra hassle for you it seems.

        • funk44 on 23/01/2019 - 20:34

          According to the review I posted the battery lasts about an hour when recording in 1080p but he did mention the screen was on. Can you turn the screen off when recording as I would use this during rides which can last 2-2.5 hours

          • AssociatedClear @ Geekbuying on 23/01/2019 - 20:39
            +2

            @funk44: The screen can be off while recording as seen here

        • TheTeamRanger on 23/01/2019 - 22:48

          Will this be compatible with zhiyun gimbal smooth q ?

          • AssociatedClear @ Geekbuying on 23/01/2019 - 22:50

            @TheTeamRanger: If I'm not mistaken that's a phone gimbal and probably needs an adaptor.

      • knobbs on 23/01/2019 - 20:29

        I do love my Xiaomi so if it does come close to the hero7 would pick this up straight away. Thanks for the link

  • iShibby on 23/01/2019 - 20:49

    What’s the difference between this and the Mijia?

    • AssociatedClear @ Geekbuying on 23/01/2019 - 21:03
      +2

      I assume you mean the Mijia 4K Action Camera? I haven't seen any comparison videos yet but based on specifications alone the Seabird 4K features a 13MP Sony Sensor, newer processor, smaller dimensions and weighs less. While the Mijia 4K has an 8MP Sony Sensor, older processor and a larger 1450mAh battery.

      • adrianhughes1998 on 23/01/2019 - 22:20

        Bigger individual pixel size on the older Mijia 4K at 1.62 versus 1.12 on the Seabird, so will capture more detail (less noise) on the older Mijia.

        • sd on 24/01/2019 - 13:26

          so mijia will have clearer videos than this?

          • adrianhughes1998 on 24/01/2019 - 16:46

            @sd: Yes it will, not by a big margin but it technically will

  • SunshineRay on 23/01/2019 - 21:07

    Any one have any idea how long postage would likely take with Direct line express?

    • AssociatedClear @ Geekbuying on 23/01/2019 - 21:08

      It's quoted as being 5-8 business days with processing of 2-7 days. Typically in my experience with AU Direct Line shipping I get my orders 1-2 weeks verses the 3-4 weeks with standard China Airmail.

  • jab14 on 23/01/2019 - 23:33

    The delivery is fast takes up to 5 days to process once this is done I got mine in 5 business days,for the money its great
    this one has EIS for 4K the Mijia is only on 1080p but the Mijia is better in low light. Reskull on youtube does a great review.
    The camera is very light in weight.

  • Phoebus on 24/01/2019 - 00:30

    Great price for a good action cam. Even records in h.265.
    One let down however is that it doesn't do date/time stamps on videos

    Can you make home video easily with this

  • Herbse on 24/01/2019 - 07:57

    Really makes you wonder how much you're paying in marketing costs for some brands when Xiaomi can make something similar so much cheaper

  • MynyMouqe on 24/01/2019 - 08:24

    Does this come with a waterproof case like the Gopro - or is it an extra (and how much?)

    • AssociatedClear @ Geekbuying on 24/01/2019 - 17:28

      If they're the same dimensions then possibly but I doubt it.

  • Pawz on 24/01/2019 - 14:42

    Holy crap. I was already in the market for a Xiaomi Yi, but a Xiaomi Seabird for $100 ? That's even more awesome. The best price I can get on these from AliExpress is over $200. This is a STEAL ! Ordered one immediately.

    • OzBragain on 24/01/2019 - 17:56
      +1

      Your comment sounds a little fishy. OP's regular price without coupon is only AU $110

      AU $109.18 delivered from AliExpress

      • AssociatedClear @ Geekbuying on 24/01/2019 - 18:32
        +1

        $120.09 AU with GST included ;) But yes quite less than $200!

        • OzBragain on 24/01/2019 - 20:25

          Yep thanks, forgot GST. More cynical folk on here may be thinking the 66% price inflation from a member who joined days ago may not have been an accident.

          • AssociatedClear @ Geekbuying on 24/01/2019 - 20:46

            @OzBragain: Definitely not someone from Geek and would be picked up easily by the mods if it was 😉

        • Pawz on 29/01/2019 - 15:02

          Actually I only pride checked the seabird briefly because I had been in the market for a Yi instead. At the time when I posted this comment, the top listing in my AliExpress feed was (and still is) $252.27 for this product. After you pointing it out, I can see there are some other listings much closer to $100. I'm not sure if their prices dropped or if they somehow got lost in my search due to keyword choice, but there are numerous > $200 listings for this production AliExpress right now and you can go confirm this. To the cynical losers who are making accusations based on my account's age all I can say is go suck a tailpipe, doubters. I have used ozbargain for ages but I only created an account to make this moment because I was genuinely excited by this deal. I am not affiliated with geekbuying or any other company on this site and while I can see that this site is largely a "get paid to promote" site, I am not involved in that in any way. I bought this product because I wanted it and believed it to be good deal and created an account to express that. I don't give a rat's ass what you haters believe because I know I'm not lying. Thanks for you warm welcome to the site you dicks.

            Ease up tiger! You were called out for a dodgy looking comment and five days later claim it was just due to poor research. That's okay, we all make mistakes. Suck it up and move on…maybe tone down the tough guy agro talk there too champ.

            This claim is intriguing…albeit a little confusing.

            I only created an account to make this moment because I was genuinely excited by this deal

            You created an account 2 days before this deal was posted. Could I please borrow your time machine?

      Today. Sydney.

  • pongwaters on 09/02/2019 - 00:02

    Seems too hard to find a case or spare batteries for these things. You can get a case with waterproof handle for $40 from a few places, but don't need the handle. Clear's Aliexpress link posted earlier for a case is dead.

    • AssociatedClear @ Geekbuying on 09/02/2019 - 00:07

      Not to worry! GeekBuying are now stocking Seabird accessories. My intention is to offer a deal when GeekBuying return from CNY next week.

    For those who purchased the Seabird and need a Waterproof case you can grab one here :)

      Still waiting for the camera to arrive.. The most recent update from AusPost is "Shipping information approved by Australia Post" by 1 February, and no update until now.

      • abebram on 15/02/2019 - 18:11
