Once again, in Actualidad Gadget os traemos análisis de los nuevos dispositivos que salen en el mercado. En esta ocasión es el turno de la SJCAM M20 sports camera, the new model of the brand that comes to replace the previous M10 model. The main advantages with respect to the M10 are that its size is even smaller (with which we are facing one of the most compact sports cameras on the market) and the camera that goes up from 12 MP to 16 MP that incorporates the model M20. Its price is very attractive, since we can buy the M20 for only $ 109.
Sports camera features
At the design level, the M20 stands out for its compact vertical design, when the normal thing in this type of cameras was a horizontal design at the most pure GoPro style. In this way they achieve a product with a really tight dimensions of 40 mm wide, 54 mm high and 29 mm long and with a weight with battery included of only 54 grams. This small size and weight make the M20 an ideal device to use in drones or RC cars.
Regarding image quality, the M20 mounts the 206 MP Sony IMX16CQC sensor which gives very good results. Allows a 166 degree maximum angle which is undoubtedly appreciated when recording videos in the open air and we want to transmit the environment around us in the video with the most realistic possible result. The 900 mAh battery allows an autonomy of 80 minutes which is not bad.
It has a integrated 1,5 inch LCD screen that allows both seeing in real time what the camera is recording and accessing the device's configuration menu.
Let's see the rest of the technical characteristics.
