Midland Wearable Action Camera (Refurbished)
- The action cam you can afford to break
- You pays your money, you takes your preferred HD resolution (720p or 1080p)
- Both models include a submersible case, a universal mount, a helmet mount, a handlebar mount, a goggle mount, and 2 adhesive pads
- Model: XTC260VP, XTC280VP (“XTC” - apparently for “extreme camera” - is a distracting unintentional acronym, and the rest of the model numbers don’t announce the main difference between the 720p vs. 1080p models)
The one amazing feature that beats the GoPro!
You fancy yourself a daredevil, a thrill-seeker, an intrepid swashbuckler who eats terror for breakfast and stress hormones for lunch. Now you’re ready to capture some amazing footage of your reckless foolhardiness on your action cam -
BUT WAIT! Before you buy that GoPro, you should know that this camera has one killer feature that the GoPro doesn’t have, won’t ever have, couldn’t ever have. And we’re not just talking about a brand name, “Midland”, that perfectly epitomizes the Meh approach to life.
True, the Midland Wearable Action Camera may not have the cachet, the buzz, the coherent lifestyle branding of the GoPro. But it does have this:
It’s cheap.
Yes, “cheap” is a feature. A low price enables you to do things you wouldn’t do otherwise, just as surely as if this camera had a built-in corkscrew or emitted duck calls.
Maybe you don’t care about what happens to your body - either you’ll die or it’ll grow back, right? Problem is… you would care about breaking a GoPro. We’re not just talking flesh and blood here. We’re talking real money. That GoPro shit’s expensive.
You can’t tell us that wouldn’t matter to you. At the peak of maximum risk, at the moment where you have to decide to chicken out or go for it, you can’t tell us the thought would never cross your mind: all that money down the drain…
If you really want to get that insane shot, you need a camera that you care about even less than you care about your body. You need a camera that you won’t mind seeing fly off into a crevasse or floating away over a waterfall. You need a camera that’s really cheap.
You can get yourself a few of these Midland Wearable Action Cameras for the price of one GoPro. Choose between the 720p or 1080p models, with mounts and a waterproof case and stuff, and off you go. The camera also uses universal camera mounts, so if you want to expand, you won’t be locked into a GoPro-like prison of proprietary accessories.
Most of all, it’ll free you from that nagging fear that it’s crazy to be so rough with an expensive GoPro. A price that can’t be beat means a product that can be beaten. And that’s one killer feature.
