Puns intended--searching the product as printed on the box and camera is scarce on the Google pole. My original review below follows the first line (update, in a way). You'll have to look on the Master 2 software CD-ROM to find out this camera is in fact the FE-26/X-21. Having found that out, please disregard some of the following, but if you want to read forward, imagine what if you just received the X-21 and wanted to look at the reviews before opening the package, or you didn't like the results and wanted to find out what others have to say? To confuse or not to confuse...

I can't find any information on the Olympus X-21 (when you type that in Amazon's search box, it comes up with irrelevant items), but after some searching on Amazon, this FE-26 model perfectly matches the model and features. Perhaps European models of any given camera will confuse Americans, right? I have noticed this with another camera (apple to orange), the Samsung HZ25W (America)/WB5000 (Europe) (in the aspect of confusion so you can't find what you want).

Why don't I like this camera? Before I explain, for under $100, it is very good, but cannot be compared to a far better model such as a $400 Panasonic Lumix.

I received this as a gift for community activities where I live, and am very grateful for the person who sent it to me (but I must be honest and realistic about the quality of a product--I feel it's the right thing to do). Just tested it out and found (even the screen will tell you) that, if you look closely, the image quality indoors and out (regardless of lighting) is very crude, and the Image Stabilizer is highly ineffective. I think this is a problem with Olympus compacts, because a friend of mine has an older 8 megapixel that takes blurry photos in any light. Why so? Its CCD sensor is very small, the main issue, I guess.

What had me flabbergasted was the X-21 takes only 10 or 11 seconds of VGA-quality video (isn't that bad compared to some higher-end compacts, actually--its quality in low light outdoors is fine, but very noisy indoors, as with the photos). There is no sound in the clips because there isn't a microphone--not even a speaker. Given that almost every digital camera nowadays records movies with sound, at least in mono. True, it was common for digital cameras over five years ago that could shoot only 15 or 30 seconds of video, and this camera is well below that standard alone--reminiscent of digital cameras turn of the millennium. I don't recommend this camera at all. In fact, I wouldn't ever buy an Olympus camera. Sorry if I sound too harsh, but this had me quite stymied at the time of this review.

Not that I don't know what I'm talking about--at least if you could find anything about X-21, someone else that might know something differently about this model could find something inaccurate. One site does have this model, but appears it was discontinued, right? What X-21 seems to me is a prototype that was renamed to FE-26 (the closest guess I'd make, really). By the way, the X-21 in question is black, if that helps any. If you want a better camera under $100, try a different brand.

Three stars for its limitations that fall in its price range, and for a model name that very few results for it appear in Google Search.

Don't get fooled by the high rating on amazon.
I've done a simple test. Started recording to see how long a battery will last. The camera is a canon 6D with latest firmware (1.1.6) and ML. Battery charged to full in one take - after ~ one hour of recording, battery level showed 84%(see the 1st picture) which seemed incredible for the price, but in my experience, this is what I was afraid of - inaccurate % reading. I removed the battery and reinstalled it, an voila after the reboot camera showed 17% (see second picture attached).
I'm not complaining on the total recording times, it's acceptable. But you risk getting into situations with a dead camera in a wrong moment, due to the issue stated...

Yesterday in my second attempt to get my bike ride on video the camera fails and now it doesn't work, first i thought it was a battery problem but not, the camera is completely dead and the worst part is that with only 2 days i lost my chance for a refund on amazon. I tried to contact the manufacturer but i cannot find information on amazon or the "manufacturer site"  http://www.igeekpro.com/

Please don't waste your money on this little piece of... "plastic" if you know what i mean ;)

But right out of the box, mine would not turn on, even after leaving it plugged in over night. I tried plugging in into a computer and it didn't detect it. Held down the power button for about 10 sec hoping for some miracle. Finally when it decided, the 3 LED lights on the side came on together flashing red. Im so disappointed.

I didn't buy this camera from Amazon but I feel so disappointed that I want to warn others against this camera.
First off the pictures are terribly blurry. My old 4.0 megapixel camera had clearer pictures than this.

Secondly, the camera stopped working. I've only had it for four months. It won't charge anymore. I replaced the battery for $40 too!

Basically, I wasted my money on a crappy camera and then extra money to try to fix it.

Received a faulty camera.

When I look back in the recorded video, there is a visible, large dirt mark in the middle. Covering lense is cleaned and does not have problem om the exterior so it seems to be internal issue. Plus, I cannot live view the recording on the yi dashcam app.

I am returning the flip to amazon-

seems like a very neat camera-

but:

I had to push the record/stop button numerous times each time I wanted to record/stop-

trying to get an update to work; got it downloaded and started the update but it would not finish (used the mac update; do not know if there is a mac compatibility problem)-

disappointed, but willing to cut my losses before I spend an inordinate amount of time contacting tech support etc, and then it still not work right-

***  DO NOT BUY ***

I have had 2 of these dash cameras in the last 5 weeks. BOTH have just Stopped Working. There is power at the cord but the Camera simply just quit working. Twice. Same thing with Both Cameras. I am a First Responder and Always use a dash cam. I thought I was Upgrading. I was Wrong. Poorly built for a 200 dollar camera. Amazon has been Great whit the Exchanges but whoever manufactures this thing needs to go back to school. DO NOT BUY.

I think as another reviewer noted, I am typically huge fan of Amazon hardware products.  My Kindle/Fire TV all exceeded expectations and I am very happy with them.  This camera though, I've had issues which I was not able to resolve with the Amazon tech support team - it initially worked at home triggering motion detection/sending me the notification/and then recording the incident.  But when I was testing for the first time away from home, camera would send me the motion notifications but would not have any video recording, although I was able to watch the live video feed okay - after spending several session with Amazon support, I gave up and ended up returning the camera.  I actually also ended up returning the 2nd unit that I had ordered without even opening due to the issues I had with the 1st one.  I am truly disappointed.  I should have been wary of the not-so-stellar review before I purchased it but I wanted to give this camera a try.  Well I swung and struck out.

I am very unhappy with this camera.  It is not user friendly.  I like wroking with Amazon but am not happy with this product.

I just received this camera and let me tell you, the packaging is clearly not original. The box says canon, but that's it, it only has a small sticker on the side with a model written on it. the way all the contents were packed inside makes it look like this is not a new camera. I have purchased a Canon camera before and the box was for that particular model, will all the contents stored inside the proper way. This one had some kind of foam piece and all contents in plastic bags. ALSO, there was no warranty card! I am calling them first thing in the morning and see what they say. Oh and mine is black.

When reading the description it was advertised to have manual shutter operation. After I got it and read the directions for manual operation, it shows the manual shutter button as the button to take pictures. Something any idiot already knows.
It takes fair pics but in max zoom every thing has a halo. stars look like donuts. Maybe camera error. If so, I'm irked because it's supposed to be like new, not like malfunctioning.
I'll call customer service to determine if I should return this or not..
2/13/2013 called Kodak customer service was unable to get an english speaking person.
I was told to wait for a call back 5 to 7 days. This camera won't focus even on a tripod and continually throws errors.
I feel the reviews were put in falsly to sell this product. SHAME AMAZON!!!
I'll probably NEVER buy any electronics online.
This was a first and I'm so burned I'll not give A second chance.
3/5/13 UPDATE>>> AMAZON HAS RESOLVED THIS TO MY SATISFACTION 100%.
CUSTOMER SERVICE WAS EASY TO REACH AND I USED THE CHAT WINDOW TO RESOLVE THE RETURN BALANCE.
This product was faulty, Kodak Wanted to make me wait for a return call past return date,
Amazon returned it and promptly returned my money after verifying the return was received.
Faith renewed. Thanks Again.

Camera seems nice, but the camera I got won't power on after the firmware upgrade.  after a bit of research, seems like their action camera has the same issue.  I've contacted the company to try and get some help, but no answer from them.

Despite all the Q&A responses, this camera does NOT support recording or SD Cards. I'm returning the product. This product is Live video feeds only, with option to capture a quick snap-shot. There are no recording or rolling-recording (what I'm really wanting) options.

The live video functions; setting up wasn't as "quick" as they like to claim. Tip: If you're setting up manual, select mode 923LB1 not 932L.

Product is fine and great for its price if all you're after is live streaming and motion/sound alert detections.

The "life time technical service from QC" I gave them minus 10 out of one hundred.
At night time the cameras are so unreliable and grainy that you can't distinguish perptrator or a vehicle.
The pictures are very grainy and the picture turned from black and white to purple/orange (not usable).
I do not know as to why Amazon should be peddling this unreliable (QC) company.
