Your Life in 4K: The Action Cam You Always Have With You
The AKASO Keychain 2 redefines portability. So small and light that you hardly notice it, yet so powerful that it captures every important moment in impressive 4K quality. Attach it magnetically to metal surfaces, clip it to your clothing, or mount it to your equipment – this camera is made to be your constant companion. Forget bulky gear; the best shots happen spontaneously, and with the Keychain 2, you're always ready.
Silky Smooth Videos Thanks to 6-Axis Stabilization
Shaky footage is a thing of the past. The integrated 6-axis Electronic Image Stabilization (EIS) works like a digital gimbal, confidently compensating for shocks and rapid movements. Whether you're riding a bumpy trail, speeding down the slopes, or simply filming while running – your videos always remain steady, fluid, and professional. Focus entirely on your experience; the Keychain 2 takes care of the perfect picture.
Built for Adventure: Robust, Waterproof, and Durable
Don't let the small housing fool you. The Keychain 2 is protected against heavy rain and splashes according to IPX6. For real underwater action, simply place it in the included housing, and you can dive up to 30 meters deep. With a battery life of up to 180 minutes for 1080p recordings, it's a true GoPro Alternative with long battery life and easily lasts through long tours. It is the ideal choice in our Other Cameras category for those who don't want to compromise.
Full Control via App: Connect, View, Share
The Keychain 2 is a smart Network client. Via the integrated 2.4 GHz WiFi, you can quickly connect it to the AKASO GO app on your iOS or Android device. Use your smartphone as a live viewfinder, adjust all settings from resolution to metering mode, start and stop recordings, or wirelessly transfer your files. This way, you can immediately edit your adventures and share them with the world, without even having to remove a memory card. Also perfect as a light action cam for drone to control the live view.
