    Bought the camera to use during a white water rafting trip. The camera was mounted on top of the helmet and worked perfectly. The camera is water proof. Stayed attached the whole trip, The camera took great video. The video was easy to upload to my computer with the software that came with it. The only downside is that the battery life is only about an hour and then it has to be recharged.

    The new HERO Session is a nice alternative to the bulkier/pricier 5 model, and handy for capturing those down & dirty moments on the run. While it doesn't offer 4K, the quality is still great at 1080p and it's one-button operation is idiot-proof. (good for me...) Grab a floating handle mount and take it into the water work-free!

    I was looking for a basic starter camera for activities. I didn't consider other brands as GoPro is the leader here but there were many models. The Session really fit the bill and has performed wonderfully so far. It sure beats holding your phone camera with one hand while trying to skate or bike at the same time. Great product!

    I wanted to get a gopro for my husband, but I was looking for something inexpensive. This was perfect. The only thing is, it seems to get pretty hot.

    Used the HERO session on a 6 day bike trip down the California coast one week after buying. The vented helmet strap was a separate purchase but the combo worked great. The camera is very simple to use and the go pro studio edit software is intuitive (with a little help from the manual). Captured some very cool memories. Definitely a good buy.

    I needed something to record a video for school (but also wanted something that I could use for fun stuff too). I found this was cheaper than all the camcorders that were in the store and the same if not better video quality. It served its purpose for school and was able to take it white water rafting too. I love how small and portable it is!

    The GoPro session camera does an excellent job of recording high quality video and still images wherever you go doing whatever it is that you do! The small form factor and rugged qualities of this camera make it perfect for carrying with you everywhere. The small form factor and light weight make it so you barely even know it's there.

    About this with the intent of going snorkeling in the ocean. The salesman was helpful telling me what I neededo. This handy little camera was so easy to use. The footage that I got under water was very clear very smooth. If you're looking for something simple to record with or take a couple snapshots this is the camera you want.

    I love my Go Pro Session. I bought this to go on our honeymoon, and it was perfect. It is waterproof in shallow water, and it has decent battery life. I would recommend having an external battery if you want to use it for an all day use. Otherwise, we loved this thing. Especially for the price, I would absolutely recommend this.

    This is my first GoPro, I loved it because it's waterproof , small and lightweight. I got it for vacation and it was a great buy. I was wasn't sure to get it because it didn't have a screen but I honestly don't need it because it connects to your smartphone. Overall I love my GoPro and I hope you all have the experience I had.
