The X-Sports seems quite bulky in comparison with the latest incarnation of the GoPro and the heavy-duty nature of the waterproof housing can render some of the buttons slightly unresponsive. The remote control is also easy to pair with the camera and works well.

You get a lot in the box, so you should be able to take the X-Sports with you on most activities. There's also the included remote control, which is easy to use and makes it clear what mode the camera is in and whether it's recording. The X-Sports has similar core functionality to the GoPro Hero 3+ Black Edition (although no 4K capability), but it has a built-in LCD, costs considerably less and comes with an extensive collection of mounts. Toshiba has put together a pretty enticing package that offers decent value for money at ВЈ179.99. The supplied plastic mount allows the camera to wobble a little. It's worth pointing out that while Toshiba supplies a range of mounts with the X-Sports, if you plan on shooting a lot of footage from a bike, it would be advisable to buy a more solid bike-mount that locks the camera securely onto the handlebar. Footage from the two cameras could be mixed without it jarring or being noticeable. The greater level of sharpening is also noticeable in places in the Toshiba camera's results, but it is still very good.

The X-Sports movie had slight higher contrast, which makes some elements look a little more 'digital' than they do in the GoPro video. We compared footage shot with the X-Sports with footage shot on a GoPro Hero3+ at the same time. I found the battery lasted for about an hour of shooting, so those out for the day may need to time their shooting carefully, carry a mobile charger or invest in a spare battery.

Sounds from splashes and crashes are usually picked up pretty well. Conversation is usually just audible, but there's also some hissing. As usual with action cams, the X-Sports' audio quality isn't great вЂ“ especially when used in the waterproof case.
