It will record videos at up to 4K* resolution at 25fps. The claimed 4K resolution is interpolated. Interpolated means the video is truly recorded at two.7K so the processor creates faux pixels to fill in and make the 4K resolution. Sadly, it’s impossible to get a legitimate 4K action camera for less than ₹20000-₹30000. The nearest out there at the instant is that the Xiaomi Yi 4K.
