Sports camera has always been a kind of product that I am interested in personally. As a digital enthusiast, I have played SLR and professional camera, but the sports camera has never had the opportunity to try. This time, I was lucky to get the opportunity to try Foream x1 in the Player100 community, and I was full of expectations. As a camera that focuses on freeing hands, foream x1 uses headband shape.

Seen from the appearance alone, foream x1 is really new. The headband design can free the user's hands to a certain extent. Moreover, through experience, the product is worn on the head, and the operation of various keys is very simple. In addition, there are voice prompts for each step of operation, so it is easy to get started.
experience
Before the experience, according to the instructions, the product must be fully charged for the first time. In the process of charging, download the appropriate app software first.
The download method is described in the manual, and will not be introduced here. Let's take a look at this app called foream.
After the camera is turned on, the software prompts whether to connect the camera directly. Later operations can only be performed after the camera is turned on.
As shown below, first install the SD card into the SD card slot.
Turn on the camera power button and wifi, and the power indicator and wifi indicator light will be on.
Click the camera direct connection and select the device. At present, Foream has three sports camera products. Select x1. The wifi name of each foream x1 is different. Select the wifi name of your product.
Then you can enter the main interface of the software, and you can see the prompt of directly connecting the camera on the upper part of the main interface, which proves that the software has successfully connected with the camera.
The main interface is very simple, with three parts: picture preview, camera file and settings.
Let's look at the settings first. Enter the setting interface to register the camera, set the resolution, speaker volume, continuous shooting interval, etc.

Another important option in the setting interface is to register a camera. The camera can be registered with a mobile phone number, or it can be directly registered with a third-party account such as QQ, Sina Weibo, etc.
After binding, you also need to select a wireless route. You can select a wireless route at home. After successful registration, you can enter the cloud mode. The camera has voice prompts for each step of operation here.
On the main interface, after entering the cloud mode, the camera logo on the top of the app interface has a red logo with a 1 on it, proving that a camera is connected. Click to view the name of the camera.
The wonderful recommendation interface allows you to see various videos shared by users.
Foream x1 has 10G cloud storage space for online disk files. Users can manually upload photos, videos, etc., or set it to auto upload in the setting interface.
Click the camera name to enter the camera setting interface. Different from the previous direct connection camera setting interface, this setting interface has two options: I want to broadcast and enter direct connection mode.
Click "I want to live" to enter the live channel. Users can create a live channel to live the video, but there is some delay in the screen.
Click the button at the bottom to enter the direct connection mode to open the direct connection mode. Enter the direct camera interface.
The picture preview can synchronously browse the pictures taken by the camera, and the synchronization is slightly delayed.
Camera files, you can view videos and photos of the camera SD card.
As a head mounted sports camera, foream x1 can be worn on the head with velcro. Through experience, it is found that wearing it on the head is a little tight, especially in summer, it sweats a lot, and the feeling is particularly obvious. It is suggested that the Velcro can be designed to be adjustable. Users can adjust it according to their own conditions.
Foream x1 can record videos with resolutions of 1080p and 720p. The video format is mp4, the camera pixels are 8 million, and the lens angle is 87 degrees. This configuration is not particularly high, but as a non professional and lifestyle product, it is also enough.
In addition to online live broadcast, foreamx1 can also edit and share videos online. It allows users to operate away from the PC, and the editing and sharing of these videos are directly operated in the cloud, without occupying the user's mobile memory.

Photograph sample
Through taking samples, we can feel that although it is 8 million pixels, the photography effect of foream x1 is good, with high color reproduction and obvious light and dark contrast.

Summary and suggestions
Since the foream x1 is worn on the head, and the camera is fixed, unable to move, zoom, and view the image at any time, shooting is generally blind. What you want may not be captured. So this is also the biggest disadvantage of this product.
It is suggested to set it as a movable lens. Through app software, you can adjust the shooting focus, etc., to make the shooting more targeted.
And through experience, we found that the anti shake effect is not particularly good when taking photos while walking, and many photos are blurred. This is not particularly obvious when recording.
Users' videos and photos can be shared, but the editing function of app software videos is too simple. It is recommended to add more functions to increase the playability of the product.
