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 WOLFANG GA120

  • Its 42 mm by 30 mm body is easy to carry on a bike.
  • The second screen makes selfies and vlogs easier to frame.
  • Two batteries and a waterproof case come with it.
  • Electronic stabilization helps at 1080p and 2.7K.
  • Wi-Fi app control lets you change settings and move clips to your phone.
  • Slow motion at 120 fps adds variety.

What customers don't like about WOLFANG GA120

  • Electronic stabilization switches off at 4K.
  • There is no touchscreen, so menus take a while to work through.
  • Picture quality is only fair, with soft detail and off colours in some shots.
  • Wind noise can spoil the audio.
  • The body is not waterproof, so it needs a case in bad weather.

Verdict

Small is the point of the Wolfang GA120, which measures 42 mm by 30 mm and is easy to carry. The second screen is an uncommon extra, and it makes vlogs and selfies easier to frame. The 170 ° field of view is wide, and the 4K video runs at 30 fps. Wi-Fi control through the app lets you adjust settings and move clips to your phone. A microphone input lets you plug in an external mic for vlogs. The trade-off is steadiness, since electronic stabilization switches off at 4K. Battery life is rated at 90 min, so a spare battery is worth having. It suits a buyer who wants a small camera for cycling and beach days and is happy to use the app for settings.
