Which one should you buy?

For most Australians the DJI Osmo Action 4 is the action camera to buy: a bigger sensor than current GoPros, genuinely waterproof to 18m without a case, a front screen for vlogging and no subscription to unlock features, all for around 298 dollars. Step down to the AKASO Brave 7 LE for casual pool and kid duty under 200 dollars, or up to the Osmo Pocket 3 for vlogging, the Action 6 for low light, the Insta360 Ace Pro 2 for the sharpest 8K footage, or the X5 for 360 capture.

For full context on why we ranked these the way we did, what alternatives we considered (and rejected), and the broader buying-guide framework, read the full Best Action Camera Australia 2026: GoPro vs DJI vs Insta360.
