    Best of all the action camera, well.. In terms of well roundedness. I say this because the video is flat and has good built in microphone which when you compare to other 4k action camera they all fail on it. Recently there was an update for the microsd compatibility, just make sure when you buy 1 visit their website for the compatible one as you cannot get the full feature if you buy a slow microsd card

    Overall i love this go pro, only reason i gave it a 4 star is because of the fact that the battery is so fast to drain out and at times the go pro gets warm

    I have always been a huge GoPro fan. Straight out the package this camera was a win. Coming off the previous year session camera, it was so nice having the display. Easy upload and software updates. Fast setting changes. Amazing! I use the camera a lot of cycling but also hiking and taking cool photos. Video stabilization was a big plus with this camera and is noticeable compared to previous models. Enjoy!

    I really love the GoPro Hero 5. I was debating between that and the Hero 6. I got the Hero 5 because of the cost and I have to say, that I’m glad I got it instead of the Hero 6. I’m starting a YouTube channel and I’ve heard that a lot of YouTubers started out with a GoPro. Some still use them to this day.

    The camera works wonderfully. I purchased it for a weekend Tahoe trip with the kids. Helmet strap works well once you get settings right, which can be arduous.

    We used this camera on our recent vacation and really liked the quality of the videos taken. The only negative is the touch screen doesn't respond under water.
