What it is
Average grade from independent test sites, magazines and video reviewers, 1–10.
How we count it
Grades: Each review's own score is converted to 1–10; without one, we grade the review ourselves. Big test sites count more, short reviews half as much as full tests. A video review counts half.
Score: The average grade is 80% of the review mark; the number of reviews is the other 20% (1 review = 5, the typical number in this category = 8, the most-reviewed model = 10).
Enough data: With few reviews, the average grade is pulled toward the typical grade of this category. No reviews yet: 7.4 for now.

Third-party reviews

What customers like about Apexcam M90

  • 64 MP photos leave plenty of room to crop.
  • The 12 s pre-buffer keeps the seconds before you press record.
  • 4K video at up to 60 fps keeps motion smooth.
  • The touchscreen makes the menus easy to tap through.
  • Wi-Fi lets a smartphone control the camera remotely.
  • A remote control is included.

What customers don't like about Apexcam M90

  • The waterproof depth is 0 m, so it is not made for water.
  • There is no optical image stabilization, so shaky footage depends on software.
  • The optical zoom is 1x, so you have to move closer to your subject.
  • There is no flip-out screen, which makes selfies and low shots harder to frame.
  • There is no continuous autofocus for video and no manual focus.

Verdict

Photos are the reason to look at the Apexcam M90, a budget action camera for people who want something simple for family trips and days out. Its 64 MP stills are the main strength, and the 12 s pre-buffer keeps the seconds before you press the button, which helps with moments that come and go fast. Video runs at 4K and up to 60 fps, and the 2 inch touchscreen makes menus easy to tap through. The 1350 mAh battery and the included remote control round out the kit. The trade-off is toughness and steadiness: the waterproof depth is 0 m, and there is no optical stabilization, only the electronic kind. It suits someone who shoots mostly on land in daylight and wants photos without fuss.
