Product Description
Our Veho KX-1 measures at just 5.2cm X 2.6cm X 4cm making it 40% smaller than our previous K-Series Model. Weighing just 69g, the KX-1 is also 20% lighter than our K-Series, making hands free video capture easier than ever before. The KX-1 boasts excellent performance when capturing low-light footage, allowing you to shoot fantastic video even in fading light, increasing the length of your photoshoots. Capturing perfect stills at 12MP, the KX-1 comes with a variety of photo modes. The Photo burst mode allows you to take up to 10 photos per second; ideal when trying to achieve the perfect action shot. Photo interval shooting allows you to continuously capture timed photos from 1-60 seconds, allowing you to capture a variety of your greatest action moments over a period of time. A popular feature from our K-Series range, the 180 degree rollover, has also been retained, meaning if you are mounting your KX-1 upside down the footage plays back the correct way up. The KX-1 has an interchangeable, rechargeable lithium-ion battery with a capacity of 1050mAh, allowing up to 3 hours of recording. The batteries are easily interchangeable too, so the purchase of spare batteries will increase recording time without creating inconvenience. Featuring a built-in 1.8” LCD touch screen, you can playback footage and change menu settings with ease on your KX-1. The LCD Screen can also be used as a viewfinder. Shipped in a rugged carry case perfect for travelling with your camera, the KX-1 NPNG box contents includes a waterproof case, 8GB microSD card, helmet mount, curved and flat adhesive mounts, USB cables, anti-fog inserts, lens cloth, decals and a product user manual. With a 60m wireless range, you can connect with your smartphone whilst recording footage on your KX-1. The Free Muvi App (Available on Android and iOS) allows you to connect your K-Series camcorder wirelessly to your smartphone so that you can now stream videos your smartphone or tablet from your KX-1.

My impression is that this is a cheap 'knock-off' of the Go-Pro and a regrettable purchase.

It's really, really tiny and solidly made. You'll need a micro SD card. Read the instructions because there are a couple of things that aren't totally obvious, like how you press the power switch to start the video and the red video button to stop it. But it's easy enough to master.
There are quite a few settings, but the touch screen makes changing them easy, even though it's very small. I like the various interval setting to capture stop motion movies, and you can do things like automatically take a still photo during video every two or five or more seconds. You can record just video and not sound (sound is poor), or both, or set it to start recording when it senses camera movement... a useful armoury of settings.
You can connect by wi-fi to your phone too and see what the camera sees and access its controls and settings – very useful if it's attached to a helmet or something. This works very well for me. You can also transfer videos and photos to your phone this way. You can also connect to a remote shutter release (like on a selfie stick) with Bluetooth.
For video, Veho recommends the 1080p60 (60 frames per second full HD), which gives good, sharp, smooth results. The f/2.5 lens means it not going to be too bad in low light or underwater. You can also record at 720p100 for super smooth or slow motion, and then there's the 4K10 setting... Hmm. Ten frames per second? That's poor. So this is a 4K video device in name only, so don't be misled. Ten frames is unacceptably jerky and awful. There's electronic image stabilisation though, which works 'quite' well but is no replacement for a gimbal.
It records still photos at 12MP but stills look mediocre. Use your phone instead.
I like the big, chunky plastic carry case with foam inserts so you can take all your accessories safely with you. And it comes with quite a few. The best is a crystal waterproof case good for 40m depth. There's also a slightly flimsy 'quick release' 'case' that like the waterproof case clicks into one of the included mounts; these have adhesive pads so aren't re-usable – once you've stuck them on something, that's it. And there are some small soft pads and an orange rubber thing that doesn't have any obvious purpose.
What it lacks is a tripod mount, or any kind of temporary means of attaching the camera to things. You'll have to delve into the wonderful world of accessories for these!
The obvious comparison you'll make is with the GoPro Hero series. GoPro costs a lot more actually but does 'proper' 4K60 video with really good image stabilisation and is waterproof without an extra case, though not to 40m.
But this action cam takes fairly solid 1080p60 video and is cute and super tiny (even in its waterproof case) and easy to use. Wi-fi works well and the accessory case is a bonus. You pays your money and your takes your choice, as they say.
I bought this item brand-new in July 2019 and from day one the battery life has been very poor. It was advertised as a 4k camera with battery life up to 2hrs. At 1080p it only ever managed 1hr 12mins at best from new. Currently today set at 720p it only manages 47 mins!
I have contacted the Veho UK support team via email several times and also registered the issue on their website - their response has been poor throughout - one reply told me to alter the reduce the rate down, to improve the battery life - I told them it was already on the lowest setting at 720p, I got no response to that...
Today June 16th 2020 I have again contacted the support team who have basically just told me 'sorry they cannot help further at this time'
Pay the extra money and get a Go-Pro, Garmin or other make as this Veho camera is fiddly to use and has a battery that will disappoint.
The camera itself is a study little thing, measuring 5 x 4 x 2.5 cm and weighs in at just 69g. It uses a microSD class 3 card but this doesn’t come supplied with the camera. The camera is pitched as having a resolution of 4K. While this is true, it is only 4K at 10 fps, 2.7K at 15fps but produces better footage at 1440p and 1080p which have much better frame rates. 30fps and 60fps respectively. More suitable for capturing the “action”.
It shoots stills photographs at a high resolution of 16mp but this can be reduced to 12mp or 8mp.
A minor niggle for me is that the camera operation is not very intuitive. Strangely the power button doubles as video recording start with a dedicated stop button on the top of the camera. The instruction book is decent. Operation and settings are easy to understand.
The free downloadable smartphone app worked great for me and enables control of the camera via wifi. Useful for operating a mounted camera where the buttons aren’t easily accessible. All-in-all I’m happy with this camera. It functions well and comparative to the big-name alternatives. Unless you particularly need or want a GoPro this camera will do as good a job for a much reduced cost.
