When we first pulled the Gobii HD Action Camera from its box, there was a lot of mirth in the Gearburn office. Mocking, unfriendly derision. And then we played with it for a while, and even the flinty hearts of Gearburn melted a little. It’s a weird shape, and the plastic feels cracktastic, but it is quite functional and IP68 sealed: no dust, complete, immersion in water. How deep? No idea, they don’t say.
The outright urge to Burn it faded with some use, but at a shade over $200 in ‘rip-off’ markets it could make sense. Or, buy a GoPro in the US and ship it to you for not a lot more. And you get a vastly better camera. What is Gobii, and Kalahari.net, the e-retailer that flogs them, up to?
