Hi,
I'm looking for an Action Camera with good quality & price for Vlog and as well as Driving record.

Friend grabbed from Tao Bao called something like Sargo around RM150, picture quality not so good (video), jerking on 4K recording while panning. Still, 170 wide but really NOT wide enough (FAKE Wide)!

What is your suggestions? Appreciate!

Replying a little late here.
There are a few points to consider.
Vlogging and driving record(dashcam) have very different requirements.
For the dashcam, quality and wideness is not really important. Any cheap one good enough to see the number plate is alright.

For vlogging.
I would personally recommend to go for the latest GoPro.
Yes, it is expensive. But the stabilizer does help for vlogs.
Else. Yicam4k is so-so.
Take note you’ll want a mic as well unless you plan to do a voiceover over the video.

Good point of view! In fact, believe that we still hope to receive some China's Wish List 😂

Gopro also has this problem especially on the latest hero 7. It was caused by it's digital stabilization. The camera try stabilize the video by resisting the panning movement and consequently, causing jerkiness.
