4.0 out of 5 stars Good Protection for the Action 6 -- Nice Case, Decent Extras

2026-01-29    -BJ

The case itself is pretty good. I appreciate that it protects the camera even when it’s still mounted on a tripod or accessory. It fits securely and won’t slip off when fully zipped. It’s also slim enough to slip into a pocket without feeling bulky. The lens cap is another highlight -- it snaps on easily, stays put, and still fits inside the case. It’s simple to attach and remove, and while I haven’t used the included lanyard for it, the attachment point makes removing the cap effortless.The included lanyards for both the camera and lens cap are fine, but they’re pretty basic. You can definitely find sturdier ones if you want an upgrade. The protective films fall into the same category -- they work, but only time will tell how durable they are. The listing also included a carabiner, but it didn't come with one. I'm not sure I would have used it anyway.Overall, the case and lens cap are the standout pieces in this kit, and they make it well worth considering. I'd give it 4 stars.

2.0 out of 5 stars Case is ok, but other parts of the kit have issues

The media could not be loaded. I have an Osmo Action 6 camera and wanted to get a small case for storage of the camera only. I thought this looked like a good case kit because it also includes the glass protectors for the camera’s displays and caps for the lens. And, I like the idea of being able to use the case with the quick-connect attachment installed.I included a picture of everything that came with this case. The product description shows it should come with a carabiner (what they call a “buckle”), but that was missing from my kit. For me, that’s ok, as I have other carabiners I can use.The first thing to notice about this case is that it does not zip closed around all the sides. I am fine with it being open on the bottom for the quick-release access. But be aware that since this is not a fully closed case, you can’t store other loose items in it. I will use this case when traveling to places where I’ll be needing the quick-release functionality. Otherwise, for other situations and everyday storage, I’ll use a case that closes completelyThe case itself is nice enough. It seems thick enough and has a soft interior to protect the camera. I was able to easily fit my camera in the case with an additional CPL filter on the lens. I attached pictures of the case, including showing you what the open bottom looks like. You can see that I was able to leave a quick-connect attached to the camera, and it still fits in the case. I noticed that the opening is a bit wider when I add the quick-release attachment, though.Because of that bit of extra width, I worry that the zipper will easily open on this case. It doesn’t have a way to “lock” it in place, and the open bottom exerts some pressure on the zipper, causing it to slide open. You can see what I mean in those pictures - how the zipper won’t stay zipped closed for me.They include 2 glass protection films for each spot on the camera - the lens, the back display and the front display. There are also 2 wet/dry packs to use for installing those protectors. I’m not sure why they didn’t include 3 of the wet/dry packets since there are 3 different protectors to install.There were no instructions included on how to apply the protector films. Since I’ve installed similar things on other devices, I knew what to do. I included a video here showing that process as I cleaned my display and applied the protector. Unfortunately, the protector had hardly any stickiness, so it barely stuck to my display. I pushed it down on the display many times, but it still started coming off. You can see that issue in my video. Given the lack of stickiness with the protectors, I doubt they will stay on very long. And I really doubt you can use them underwater, or even if caught in the rain.One good thing is that the touch screen worked really well for me after I attached the protector to the back display. I included that in my video, too. After playing with my camera for a bit the protector seemed to be coming even more unstuck, so I finally took it off. It was barely stuck on. It definitely would have fallen off soon.The reason I liked the idea of this case was the fact that it had a wrist strap. This is a feature I really want for my Action 6 camera case. So, this case does have a wrist strap, and there is a loop on the case for it. But the loop is SO tiny and squished tightly shut! I haven’t been able to figure out how to get the thread of the wrist strap through the loop. I included a picture showing the loop with the wrist strap near it. I was able to just barely get a toothpick through the opening, and that took some effort. This is disappointing, as I really want a wrist strap with my case.A big positive of the kit is that it comes with two lens caps. They have a nice, snug fit on the lens. Note that if you use added filters (such as a CPL), the cap may not fit on those. Or, at least, the cap wouldn’t fit with my CPL filter attached. Interestingly, the lens caps have a small loop built in and come with small looping connectors that can attach somewhere - see my picture for reference. However, since the Action 6 camera itself doesn’t have a loop for attaching anything, I’m not sure where these lens caps are supposed to be attached. But at least the ability is there with these caps.Overall, while the case is nice if you want the ability to leave your quick-connect attached, there are other issues with the kit. These include the missing carabiner, the impossible-to-attach wrist strap, the non-sticky protectors and the looseness of the case’s zipper.I hope this information helps!cheers,c~
