Polaroid Cube Review: HD Action Video Camera

Started as a sunglasses company, they have been producing smartphones as the Polaroid Snap S55WH or the Polaroid Power P600SL which are fantastic smartphones; speakers; and of course, brand new Polaroids, for what they have become recognized, and they did a huge change to the photograph business.

Polaroid knew how to take advantage of the principal issue which travelers always had, “how did their pictures look like” and, “how fast they wanted to share them.” But, they disappeared off the market with the digital’s camera era. It was a bit hit for them when they entered into bankruptcy and all their sales were down as the company. Since 2010 the company started to build again their empire. The polaroids and all the vintages cameras they used to produce went straight back to the market, and also the incorporation of Lady Gaga as their Creative Director.

It is only the beginning of the Polaroid comeback. Instagram did play a big part of the incredible Polaroid comeback with their philosophy, “Instantly share your photos.” The legendary brand which made an amazing improvement to the photography industry returns to the business, and they are giving us the Polaroid Cube now. Not only with cameras, they are focusing once again on the consumers need. Now providing us a Camera which is able to take videos in 1080p in 1920×1080 and 1280×720 @30FPS. Despite the 6MP it possesses, we will be capturing smooth video enough to fulfill our experiences in whichever use we provide to it. It is a Lifestyle Action Camera weatherproof and water resistant.

Using this camera for live action sports as motorcycling, skating, or to record our adventures in a 90 minutes lapse time is its principal use. Small and compact. We can place the Polaroid Cube in the top of our helmet or any metallic surface. It will attach to anything due to its magnetic bottom!

We can record our videos in a tiny 32GB Micro SD. It is the maximum amount the Polaroid Cube supports. Enough to record above 4 hours in 1080p.

We were about to make the mistake of submerging the Cube. Despite it is water resistant, it doesn’t mean it will be waterproof. In this case take function the 8 different accessories it has.

The Bumper Case: this case is meant to be worn as a necklace, backpack, keychain or any place you find it attachable. It will be useful when we want to record the first-person lifestyle.

Helmet Mount: it will virtually attach to your helmet.

Monkey Mount: this actually works a tripod where we can turn the camera in any direction.

Waterproof Case: this is what we would like to have in case of submerging. Also, it attaches to all the other cases and this case is shockproof as well.

Suction Cup Mount: is the universal camera clip which will be attached to any flat surface.

There is as well the Bike Mount; the Tripod Mount which secures the camera fitting to all metal through insertion; and the last one, the Strap Mount. The Strap Mount fasten the Cube to wherever you place it, you will be 100% sure it won’t fall.

We will be sure, Polaroid has a long time to play their cards, not like the last time. Hopefully, they did learn from their mistakes and we can keep enjoying of their products.
