Andoer Digital Camera review: an ultra-cheap 48 megapixel / 4K digital camera – but don’t get too excited

Andoer 48 Megapixel Digital Camera.

Andoer is a Chinese company that’s mostly been on my radar for making budget tripods and supports, as well as other photo and video accessories, and they even sell saxophones. With travel tripods, tabletop tripods, monopods and other supports on their books, it seems strange that the camera I’m reviewing here doesn’t have a tripod mounting socket. That’s already a bit of a minus point for selfies and vlogging, which seem obvious uses for such a cheap and pocketable digital camera. And it certainly is cheap to buy, considering that it’s advertised as delivering 48MP stills and 4K UHD movies. Judging by the spec sheet, it aims to be one of the best cheap cameras on the market, best cameras for beginners, and best cameras for kids. We’ll see about that.

A small shiny disk just above the lens on the right of this image serves as a selfie mirror, at least to some extent, helping you to put yourself in the frame. (Image credit: Matthew Richards)
