SJCAM SJ4000-Is it decent?

I was looking around for a budget GoPro alternative, and I came across this: The SJCAM SJ400

It seems to have it all (within reason)-1080p video recording (albeit with 30FPS), wifi capabilities, 170 degree lens, built in lcd, a plethora of included accessories (as well as gopro accessory compatibility), all for a price of $80 USD

All of the reviews I found pointed to it being a great camera, especially for the price

 

 

So, the question still remains

Is it a decent camera?

 

I know that it won't be comparable to any gopro, except maybe the cheap Hero, but I want to have other opinions on whether this budget camera may actually be pretty awesome.

 

 

Also, anyone who does have experience with this camera and its many knockoffs, is this one real?

Yes, I use mine while biking or dirt biking and it does pretty damn good.

 

TechMoan has a good video on the camera here:

My only issue is occasional digital noise, but most of it can be removed in editing.

Although it only has three reviews on that Amazon listing, it does seem like a good alternative if you're on a budget.
