Anyone know anything important about the specs?
Anyone have any kneejerk reactions with nothing to back them up?

cydwhitKneejerk reaction: Wow that is ugly! Why would I trust Polaroid to make a good action cam?
Actually looking at specs: Specs aren't that great, get an old go pro for the same price and get the same specs with really good customer service and an established proven product, Just my .02 cents
cydwhitYeah, I've seen go pro's on NS for under $100, I'd probably sell mine for $100 honestly, if someone wanted it, 60fps at 720p, not sure if the cube has this, also, ability to add a screen? Also waterproof case coming standard, also this doesn't really matter. That thing may be smaller but it's ugly as sin, its like it took all the ugly parts about go pro and made them worse. It seems like a go pro for moms, check this article out, really unappealing to me. http://petapixel.com/2014/08/13/polaroids-cube-action-cam-special/
RubberSoul(yeah no 60fps on it)
that article was fine but it seems to dodge the point that it's not trying to compete directly with the gopro. it's 100 bucks compared to 200, 300, and 400. i honestly might pick one up
RubberSoulyeah understandable. i think i just realized the reason this entices me besides the price: it's much smaller. gopros are amazing but i still think theyre too big and it makes me much less likely to take one places and use it
you'd think gopro would have teamed up with a good helmet company and integrated them. but maybe im just too self conscious of the teletubbie look while goproing. while going pro! man that name is lame. the GO PRO...HERO. ugh
also this thing is "weatherproof" and the waterproof case is only like 30 bucks i think
