    Very easy to bring with you. Requires a case for protection if you're picky, otherwise just as a selfie stick and start recording.

    I bought this camera for a trip to NZ and it worked as advertised. Pleasantly surprised that it had voice commands which worked well.

    Been using this since I got it. Love the versatility of mounting almost anywhere to get your shots. And in the water it's awesome

    BestBuy specific sandisk cards don't work though equivalent versions on GoPro web page says it will work. Had numerous failures related to memory card performance issues. Don't buy SanDisk cards from BestBuy basically.

    We tried it out in the kayak so far and plan on taking it to Iceland in 2 weeks. I'm sure it will do everything we need it to do!

    Well it does what any gopro does , all i have to say about it is the voice activation on it will not be accurate if u have the normal case on it that you need to strap it on whatever , but i guess is still a fun feature

    My biggest concern is that new products come out and then it is very difficult to get the parts especially batteries for the product I previously purchased. Not everyone can update to the newest product so quickly.

    When I first got it, it wouldn't let me view my footage. I would take pictures and videos, and slide to the right and it would just go black and bring me back to shooting mode. I had to reset the camera for it to work.
