    Used this on my trip abroad. Loved that I can talk to it and that it is waterproof. The glitches however were a problem and priced very frustrating at times.

    Really like this version of the Hero. It's well built and easy to use. My only issue is I fear the HDMI connection is a weak point that could easily break if the cable is tugged accidentally.
