Voice Controlled SJCAM SJ8 Leaked Boasting Native 4K 60FPS

Action camera specialists, SJCAM, are rumoured to be working on an all new sports camera model with updated 4K features and dual displays.

SJCAM has quickly become one of the go-to brands for anyone who is serious about recording high-quality video of their outdoor antics. The company has been in the game for years and knows how to make a quality and highly functional sports camera, and now with all their experience, they are working on something new.

While we haven’t heard from SJCAM themselves about the SJ8 we have learned that the new camera is set to become official in October, and according to tech site Posh Gadgets the camera will come with features users have long been wishing for.

According to the leaks, the SJCAM SJ8 will see a boost in video performance and will natively support 4K video recording at 60FPS! What’s more, the camera is said to come with dual touch screens (a rear 2.33in panel with a 0.96in panel on the front).

It’s also been touched on that the SJ8 may also come with GPS, EIS and could also have a PiP (picture in picture) option which hints at some serious processing power. Live streaming to popular social media accounts, voice control and slow motion features are mentioned in the wishlist too.
