When buying a Xiaomi action camera, you will have to feel like the owner of a GoPro and buy accessories, since they are compatible with the same GoPro mounts, while the prices are Chinese online stores available as always.
Having ordered the camera, the next order I issued a couple of mounts and a spare battery. The unpacking video will be at the end of the article, there will also be an identification of the shortcomings of the mounts.
1. Let's take a closer look and start with batteries:
The battery was packed in a bright package, the box is apparently universal for various kinds batteries. On the packaging, the main advantages: "No memory effect", "fast charging" and "long battery life" 
The dimensions “by eye” are similar to the “native” battery, but when you install and remove it from the camera, you feel that it is a little larger. We insert the battery, turn on the camera, the camera turns on and successfully earned. 
The battery was charged and the camera light was blue, indicating that the battery was more than 50% charged. 
Batteries Li-ion, 3.7V, declared capacity 1010 mAh or 3.7Wh, all parameters are similar to those indicated on the "original" battery.
Unfortunately, it was not possible to fully charge / discharge with video recording and measure the duration, but in real work I did not notice a difference with the "original". Charged from the USB port of the computer for about 3 hours.
On the reverse side there is a “tab” for removing the battery from the camera and the main characteristics are duplicated. 
The photo shows that the battery is not assembled very neatly (the stickers fall off), but this is not particularly important - the main thing is that it works and the price, sorry, is $3.
2. Let's move on to testing mounts
Let's start with monopod mounts, so I plan to use it. With it, I planned to attach a waterproof case with a camera to a monopod. But I didn't order the case... 
We unpack, everything looks just fine: the plastic is super, glossy, strong, there is a screw for fastening, also with a nut!
From the bottom side, too, everything is fine, the internal thread is deep, it is perfectly fixed on the monopod, it does not rotate. Mounting diameter 32 mm. 
We are trying to fix the mount with a screw: twist, twist ... and it does not fix! ( 
Lack of screw thread length.
Why they put such a screw in the complement is not clear. Or am I missing something...
Otherwise, the mount is excellent, you can mount the camera on it in the box and shoot in the water. 
3. Go to "hand mount"
This mount is no worse than the previous one in terms of plastic quality, there is no tightening screw in the kit. 
The kit consists of a platform, swivel fasteners and Velcro. The mount itself can rotate 360 degrees and can be fixed in any position with the help of the “LOCK” latch. 
The total length of Velcro is 30 cm (of which 10 cm is the part that clings) 
On one side, Velcro is attached to a plastic mount. Velcro is sewn securely and neatly.
In this photo, the mount is in the "fixed" position. 
The inner surface is plastic, in the photo of the store's website, the back surface is covered with an overlay. 
I am satisfied with the arm mount, but when ordering, I forgot to order an adapter for mounting it on the camera. You can buy a small aluminum mount, a case, or a cheap plastic mount: 
Since time was lost, it was decided to search offline. Wandering around the shops was found mount for video recorder great for Xiaomi camera, since it has a ¼ mount. 
For ordered fastening, only the upper part is needed. We unscrew and disassemble the mount. 
The required fastener has been found! Great, we try to screw in the screw - it doesn’t work, we bore the holes with a needle file - the mount is ready! 
Installing the camera. 
We fix the camera on the forearm. In this position, the camera does not really interfere, but if it is fixed on the shoulder, it is natural that the hand is pinched and the use of the camera is very difficult.
I tried to shoot a video, fixing it on my shoulder, while flying on a quad. Thanks to the large viewing angle of the camera, equipment and the environment enter the right corner, and an interesting picture is obtained. Unfortunately, I “filled up” the horizon and I will not post such a video. In this regard, I plan to find and stick on the camera a small level that is used in cheap tripods. General form handheld camera mounts: 
With a slight movement of the hand, unlock the "LOCK", immediately turn the camera and you're done: 
In conclusion, I would like to say that despite all the shortcomings, the mounts are very interesting, of high quality and affordable. I recommend to all owners of GoPro and Xiaomi Yi!

Good afternoon to all readers and writers of Muska. With today's review, I would like to touch on a topic that is interesting for many who first encountered the choice of accessories for action cameras.
Everyone is well aware of the good price / quality ratio of Xiaomi Yi cameras, its interesting potential and scripts that allow you to squeeze all the juice out of the camera and about it. rather meager configuration by default. The delivery set is very ascetic - a camera, a cable for charging / connecting to a computer and an extended version of a monopod. Therefore, you will have to buy everything that is missing for your hard-earned money. Let's try to calculate with you in what amount (of course, somewhere cheaper, somewhere more expensive) all this will result and in general what kind of fasteners exist (necessary and not very necessary). If you are interested, please review.
This mount, as the manufacturer assures us, "is ideal for skiing, cycling, kayaking and skydiving." The material of the fasteners themselves is ABS plastic, the straps stretch well and have height adjustment. At the time of purchase cost $4.62.Since the seller’s website contains good pictures of the product itself, and they correspond to the copy that came to me, I will allow them to be attached here:

Where do I use this mount? And I use it while cycling, as a DVR. Due to the fact that I have only one in stock, I had to resort to a small “collective farming” to ensure constant power for the camera on long (more than 3-4 hours) rides. The essence of the modernization was to use the help to organize a mount (if anyone is interested in my copy, the efficiency is about 70%) with a nominal capacity of 2100mah to the “bib”. Initially, I planned to glue Velcro on a stretching strap, but this idea was abandoned as unviable.
original version
Later I glued Velcro on the bottom attachment site, and the counterpart on the power bank.

pros this mount:
- a fairly stable video picture (no twitches, such as on a head mount);
- complete absence of discomfort when using (sometimes I even forget about it while cycling);
- the possibility of collective farming and dope.
cons did not reveal for himself. This mount allows you to mount the camera on your head. The material of the fasteners, according to the seller, is ABS plastic, the material of the “straps” is elastic nylon (which is true in principle, at least elastic for sure, there is even a mesh, apparently, so that the head does not sweat). There is an adjustment for various head diameters and seat heights. At the time of purchase cost $2.29.

pros:
- provides greater mobility in terms of shooting compared to a chest mount (it is easier to “turn” the head than the chest).
Minuses:
- the picture is less stable;
- a feeling of the presence of fastening "on the body" (there is some discomfort);
- can fly off the head while swimming, for example in a water park.
Here is what the manufacturer says about it
Yunteng C-088 is a telescopic monopod designed for active life lovers, made of durable alloy. Its compact size makes it very travel-friendly, fitting in most backpacks, suitcases, handbags and hand luggage. The telescopic monopod expands your camera's shooting possibilities by capturing unique angles. This monopod model is universal, can be extended and fixed to any length from 31 to 81 cm, has a standard 1/4" tripod screw.

Pros:
- quite compact (about 30 cm when folded);
- light (about 200 g);
- allows you to increase your height by almost 90 centimeters =) or crawl into hard-to-reach places;
- there is a hole "mother" for 1/4 inch for turning into a "tripod" by connecting with data;
- for lovers of selfies on the phone there is a holder;
- withstands the weight of a nikon d7100 DSLR (765 grams) + nikkor 16-85 (485 grams), when folded without bending, when fully unfolded, having a deflection (you can’t deceive physics).
Minuses:
- the handle, unlike the yunteng 188, is not rubberized, but made of a material resembling foam rubber.
Although it does not become unusable in water (or maybe it just hasn’t worn out yet), rubber, in my opinion, is still more pleasant.

As for this mount, in my opinion, the thing is very specific and its main a plus in compactness and invisibility (when compared with a chest and head mount)
By itself, the camera in the box does not go to the bottom and pops up normally. Therefore, the main benefit of this float is that it is bright and relatively large, which makes it easy to identify the camera in the sea in case it is lost. There is nothing more to add here. Definitely take on a trip to the sea. Bought for $1.68 .float photo

alas, I haven’t been to the sea this year yet, so the video from YouTube
Repeatedly surveyed here on Muska. Price at the time of purchase $1.68
- Dimensions 165 x 35 x35mm,
- weight no more than 50 grams.
In general, it has a rather flimsy design and there can be no talk of any declared 250 grams of load. My phone ZTEv975 (150 grams) + (30 grams) + yunteng tripod adapter (reviewed above) no longer holds - the head of the mini tripod falls. For the Xiaomi Yi camera, it is ideal in terms of weight loads, but needs a "dope"- due to the short threaded hole in the camera body, it is better to put two (bare camera) or one (camera in) washer on the thread of the mini tripod. Then the camera will be firmly fixed on the “head” of the mini tripod.

Despite all the disadvantages and fragility of the device, I am sure that it is simply irreplaceable if you need to hang the camera, for example, on a tree branch, on a fence, chandelier, doorknob. Therefore, thanks to this product, the functionality of the camera mount increases many times over.
7. Self-adhesive pads and practical application experience
These platforms are used for mounting on a flat flat surface or a flat curved surface (for example, a bicycle or motorcycle helmet) using the included 3m double-sided adhesive tape. At the time of purchase, 2 straight and 2 curved platforms cost me $1.55photo sites
Since I don’t have a helmet for a bicycle and I grossly violate safety regulations in this regard, I used these sites for a slightly different purpose:
- mount the camera on the timer:
What is it for? This is necessary to get a non-ordinary static
8. Adapters for using the above mounts
In order to avoid problems with the use (namely, compatibility) of the mounts and the camera, I recommend purchasing several adapters that will make your life very easy:1.
.
general form
This is perhaps the most important component that you need to buy to adapt your camera to mounts. I recommend taking several adapters at once (I have 3 pieces for example). This allows you to save time on rearranging them (adapters) from mount to mount. I also want to note one nuance. Due to the short threaded hole of the camera, I recommend placing a washer under the threads of the adapter. The camera will not "dangle" and will be correctly positioned relative to the subject. The cost of the adapter at the time of purchase $0,68
Well, that's probably all that I wanted to tell you in this review. The total cost of all the above goods is slightly more than $29 . If you add an aquabox and a silicone case here - about $40 .
I hope this review was helpful to someone. All presented goods were bought for honestly earned and rapidly rising in price $. All good, interesting and useful purchases.
