The Polaroid Cube is an ultrasmall and lightweight action cam for catching life's little moments on the fly. It can be used for capturing HD-resolution video, snapping photos, and as a dashboard cam
The only mount included is its built-in magnet. No microSD card is included for storage. Video quality is just OK considering the price. Video is split into 5-minute clips while recording

Great concept, Cute design, Loads of mounts
Tough to use outdoors, No internal memory or bundled SD card, No compelling case to replace your smartphone camera
Who the heck is the Cube made for? This is not going to replace anyone's ultra-high-end action cam. GoPro does not need to worry. It's reliable for shooting stills and video — but so is your smartphone. I feel like this is the kind of thing that would b...

Abstract: This ridiculously simple but effective HD action cam is one such. It doesn't do as much as GoPro, but it is so compellingly straightforward and cool that I love it. The one-button operation is genius and the idea of equipping it with a strong magnet is cl...
Has a degree of “built in” weather resistance ie rain and dust/dirt, though it should be noted it can't be submersed in water, Tiny compact size solid build and useful “magnetic base” Video quality is very good, excellent resolution and details for thi
Video doesn't “auto rotate” when positioned in a non horizontal axis you'll have to do this in software, Limited configuration of the cube (only a few basic options), Not the highest bitrate for video (though quality is good), Microphone prone to pickin

Marketing: it's a beautiful thing, but only in small doses. Because when it takes precedence over technical understanding, you get the Polaroid Cube, a minimalist action cam whose three main qualities are, although appealing, lost in an avalanche of desig...
Easy to use, Compact and lightweight, Inexpensive, Easily mounted to anything metal
No conventional mount included, Video quality less than some phones
With its low price tag, we didn't expect the Polaroid Cube to perform miracles, yet we were pleased with the video quality (just try to keep things steady, unless you're actually in the middle of some action sport). We like the magnetic mounting idea, bu...
