I found this place after bought Mini 0806.
I'm not sure if I didn't choose to buy this cam first time after reading about problems of it, because
everyone hopes that his purchase will be without defects.
Despite of all this, however, I am quite disappointed with this product because it feels raw.
Raw from aspect of usability and firmware stability.
I have not opened it to see if there are no pure mounted parts inside, because I am no sure that I will not have to send it back.
Playing with my Mini 0806 around a week, purchased from GearBest.
As I understand from posts here, I have second batch camera with latest FW in old style package. First impression of received box was very good ... seemed no to be a cheep Chinese crap, but solid product.
Video quality is what I was expected better. IT is average inspite of famous Ambarella chip. At lest in my opinion it is in average, if compare to videos from other, even cheaper camera reviews. As I read here, it is even not as good as from very first old 0801.
I don't have GPS and/or power issues. At least yet.
But I have problems with functionality of camera. It just hangs-up or freeze time by time. After freezing it gets warm.
One of freezing reason which I can repeat at any time is ridiculous - camera freezes just by going through it Settings mode and checking settings. In settings mode, if I go upward then it freeze after "G-sensor sensitivity". If downward - after "LDWS Calibration".
It hangs-up also when recording and if I would like to Mute microphone or take a picture (not always, but picture taking doesn't work in record mode anyway). It just hangs-up and nothing happens any more until hard reset or empty battery. After that I have to change settings again and do it very carefully or it will freeze again
