Vlogging while jogging and firing water pistols with the DJI Osmo Action

The new action camera takes aim at GoPro with a second screen on the front for selfies

It looks like a GoPro, swims like a GoPro, films like a GoPro… but it's not a GoPro. DJI has a new action camera called the Osmo Action, hoping to take GoPro's throne as the go-to action camera brand.

Although the Osmo Action and GoPro's Hero7 Black have similar specs, one obvious difference is that the Osmo Action sports two screens. The front screen is there to help you see yourself during filming. And don't we all want the option to vlog while jogging, surfing or rock climbing? (On second thought, that last one sounds quite dangerous.)
