    Camera kept freezing when trying to record. Employees helped go through 3 different cameras until we found one that was not defective. But overall great quality for the price

    Love the Hero Session but the instructions (in the box and online) are terrible. They need to be completely redone. After a couple of days of pure frustration, I found some help on some independent YouTube videos

    Great for mounting in small spaces! Needed these for a work project where a small camera was needed, these worked out great for installing in small spaces and upside down!

    Got this for my grandson for his birthday. He loves it. I thought it was sort of expensive, but all electronics are expensive in my opinion. It is pretty cool how you can watch on his ipad as he records.

    Compact and easy to use. There's nothing complicated about this camera. Don't forget to format your memory card, otherwise you may encounter an error message...My rookie mistake.

    Good camera. Didn't like that all accessories were sold EXTRA. Bought the arm and head band to free my hands. Captured great moments underwater, I water, and on air.

    So far so good, we use it in our airplane to help us view our flights after we fly. It serves its purpose so far. My husband was really excited to receive it as gift.

    The camera is just awesome. I wish this cool toy would not be as expensive so it could be more accessible to more families and kids, and big kids like myself.

    Bought it for a family trip to Nevada and it worked out great. Took it mud bogging, took it night riding, took it through dirt, and the footage turned out great.

    I used the camera while riding my electric skateboard through the street of NYC. I like the one button operation, just press and go. Would definitely buy again

    I bought the Gopro Hero Session at the last minute before a trip to Africa, and I was so glad I did. The videos were very high quality and the sound surprisingly good.

    Compact form factor that is highest quality, priced right. My only slight issue is the commands to get various functions set, between pictures and video, but it just takes some practice to get down

    This GoPro is great for someone with a good phone to use it with, highly recommend getting a large storage sd card when purchasing it...you'll want to use it often.

    This little camera is great. It's versatile and the picture and video quality are great. The only reason I give it a 4 is the setup and menus are a bit more complicated that lets say a Hero 4.

    This camera worked as intended, however it wasn't the right product for us. If your recording extreme sports I get it, but otherwise a regular camera would be better for everyday recording.
