Polaroid Splash Waterproof Camera

We were going on a Caribbean cruise and I wanted to try an underwater camera. I didn’t want those disposable film ones because they only take 27 pictures and you don’t know how they came out until you develop them. I saw this and thought I’d try it.It does kinda look like a toy, but honestly I’m pretty pleased with the photos. We had waves wherever we went, so I was bobbing up and down so they’re not pristine. Also they look better once uploaded on your computer with some simple editing.Others mentioned the door not latching properly but I think that’s user error. You DO need to be sure of closing the door to the SD card/charging port and I wish it was designed a bit sturdier, because make SURE latch it closed.The camera floats; it’s very easy to use; very portable; and it takes very decent pictures. I love it

This is advertised a fully submersible camera up to 3 ft. They should advertise it at “water resistant” if it can’t be fully submerged AS ADVERTISED! The box even shows an image of someone snorkeling with the camera. I wouldn’t recommend that at all. Camera became fogged and completely failed after just one use. Used to film my baby in a kiddy pool no deeper than 6 inches at most. It floated around in the pool and I took photos and videos of my baby playing in the water. The lenses and screens quickly became fogged and eventually the camera gave out. All photos and videos were lost. The memory card was corrupted and water logged. I even made extra sure to close the memory card door properly to ensure it was sealed. It was not. You can see the rust stains from the internal components. Utter piece of garbage. I’ll be returning it immediately

I bought 3 of these for our 10, 8 and 6 year olds for a week of snorkeling. Two of them didn’t make it the week. They got water logged. They did great for 3-5 days but the constant use for the week long period seemed to be be more than they could take.

Grrat little camera for underwater pics & video. Took on cruise for snorkeling. Can use anytime also & came with mounting brackets.

I bought this for a trip to Japan where I knew I would want to be taking a ton of video. This camera is perfect for B-roll video that you might edit later into a YT video. I also use it for recording martial arts classes where I keep it running for an hour straight, or as a backup camera for interviewing someone.If I’m taking short videos, I use my iPhone, but this has been decent for keeping it running. Video is good, but audio is not stellar. It’s good enough for an interview, but not for recording music events.The back of the screen is plastic and got scratched up quickly. I recommend putting a screen protector on the back. For the money, it is good, but if you are needing top shelf quality, you need to spend more money.

I purchased two of these cameras for my children to enjoy during the summer, both 9 years of age. After our first use in a pool, one of the two had visible water intrusion and will no longer turn on. I assumed that maybe we might have done something wrong but it's a simple device with only one cover and it was definitely installed correctly. I reached out to the manufacturer and haven't received any response. Not only am I out the money for the camera but it also destroyed a SD card that I purchased separately. The camera does not come ready to use, you have to install an SD card.If the manufacturer would have responded to my email or simply offer a telephone number I can call I would have rated this a little differently, but since I can do nothing with this camera I think it deserves the least possible rating and I would advise that not only do consumers stay clear but Amazon should reconsider selling a product on their platform that doesn't offer any customer support or manufacturer warranty help.

I wanted a tiny camera I could film with in addition to my nicer camera, and while the quality isn't the best, I do enjoy using it more so for fun, rather than for "serious" filming. Overall, I'd say it's a good option for kids or for documenting in a more filmic style.

Editing my earlier review below to update: apparently this camera will work only with small-capacity memory cards, a fact buried in the instruction manual that I found only after buying/wasting other unusable memory cards that were too large. Still disappointed. Will give this away since it was unusable for the trip I bought it for.This doesn't work at all - while it charges and turns on, it won't accept any memory card I try to install - it claims that any (even brand new) memory card I put in is "full" and it can't take any pictures.Additionally, the tiny silicone rubber cord which is all that holds the on the cover over the battery and memory card came already mostly worn through and it looks like it will snap at the slightest tug - I'm afraid if I am too rough with it, it will simply come apart and it would lose any pretense of being waterproof. Very disappointed.
