What owners say about the SJCAM SJ10 Pro Dual Screen

Based on 23 owners sharing their experience in online comments

17%positive18%mixed65%negative

Owners praise stabilization and sharp footage, but report recording failures, screen faults, inconsistent images, and audio problems.

What owners dislike

  • Owners say microSD cards are not detected, some videos come out corrupted, and vertical recording corrupts files and shuts the camera off.5
  • Owners say the stock lens is soft and a replacement improved it; 1080p can look like 720p, so some set sharpness high.4
  • Owners report half the touch functions stopping, the main screen not responding while the small one is active, and screens going black during recording.4
  • Owners say the external microphone brings strong wind noise, and one reports it cannot be used at all.4

Third-party reviews

What customers like about SJCAM SJ10 Pro Dual Screen

  • A front screen lets you check your framing when filming yourself.
  • The battery lasts over an hour at any resolution.
  • Slow motion at 240 fps adds drama to sports clips.
  • Waterproof to 5 m, and the dive case gives clear underwater footage.
  • Built-in live streaming is included.
  • It charges over USB-C in about 3 h.

What customers don't like about SJCAM SJ10 Pro Dual Screen

  • The battery needs a spare for a full day of shooting.
  • Stabilisation weakens above 30 fps in 4K.
  • Dynamic range is poor in dark and bright areas.
  • Audio is unusable on a motorbike.
  • Only one of the two screens can be active at a time.

Verdict

Filming yourself is easier with the front screen on the SJCAM SJ10 Pro Dual Screen. It feels sturdy, with a 2.33 inch main screen, and it shoots 4K at 60 fps. The catch is steadiness: above 30 fps in 4K the picture gets softer and less steady. Battery life is 80 min on paper, and a spare battery helps for a full day of filming. The front screen helps when you film yourself, and the touchscreen responds reliably. It is waterproof to 5 m, and footage looks clear underwater with the dive case. Microphones are mixed, so sound can be good when you stand still and poor on a bike. It suits a vlogger who films mostly on foot and wants a front screen, not a rider who needs steady 4K at high frame rates.
