Physical Difference Between the Two Gimbal Action Cameras

The first thing you'll always look for when a new camera comes out are the physical differences between the two and what was updated.

With the Fimi Palm 2 and the newer updated Fimi Palm 2 Pro, the only physical difference we see from the off is that of a "PRO" icon which has been stuck just above the lens and camera of the Fimi Palm 2 Pro.

This has been placed there to highlight the only real difference we can see when comparing the two visually, and that is that this camera does come with a different and slightly larger 1/2" image sensor made by Sony. 

The price difference between the two is around $50, making the Fimi Palm 2 Pro a little more expensive than it's older model, the Fimi Palm 2.

The Fimi Palm 2 has been out for just over a year and the Fimi Palm 2 is a new release for the beginning of 2022.

Physical Spec Comparison

On paper, they are virtually the same camera, look the same, feel the same and work the same.

They are both 145g in weight, very light, have the exact same body and dimensions as one another and even the same controls and ports.

What we love about both of these gimbal action cameras is that they come with a 3.5mm audio jack which is seriously impressive and means you can plug any external microphone you have and instantly have better audio recordings than any competitor action camera.

Performance Spec Comparison

Looking through all the performance features of each gimbal action camera, there are literally zero differences other than the battery life.

You have 308 minutes on the Fimi Palm 2 and is one of the reasons this is our favourite action camera.

That has reduced to 160 minutes with the Fimi Palm 2 Pro, we are guessing because of the new image sensor which is now eating up some of the battery life.

Photo and Video Comparison

As mentioned above, the Fimi Palm 2 Pro has the improved and larger 1/2" image sensor by Sony, we are unsure of what model this is yet.

This means that you should have slightly better low light quality compared to the Fimi Palm 2 as more light can hit the sensor.

Other than that, you are still getting the same video and photo resolutions of 4k 30fps UHD video and 12mp photo resolutions.

Summary of Spec Comparison

Is this improved sensor enough for you to make the move to the Fimi Palm 2 Pro?

If you don't require the longer battery life then it definitely will be!
