TIPS FOR GETTING THE BEST RESULTS: 1) Keep the camera as still as possible. In cases where the camera needs to follow an action, move the camera slowly and no more than 45 degrees. 2) The background should be distinctive. Water, snow, or sky backgrounds will likely not produce desired results. Also, avoid dark places. 3) Because actions performed in place will overlap, objects and actions being recorded should move across the video frame.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Backbeat Cam at Free against Clipstro's $3.99. Backbeat Cam also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 3 weeks). Clipstro's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ads (none vs shown). On device support there is nothing between them.
