Other high quality action cameras are already using this format, such as the GoPro Hero 5, to great effect so there are high hopes for the latest generation of MGCool action camera.
A render which has accompanied the news of the new 4K video support shows the MGCool Explorer 2 in a bright orange finish, with curved edge and a black border. While we don’t know for sure, the black area of the body does look like it could be made of rubber which might mean the new camera won’t necessarily need a waterproof casing.
The render also shows us the placement of the physical controls and also confirms the Explorer 2 will have a touch screen on the rear. More information here or here.
