    Will Never Vacation Without Them

    I originally purchased one of these for an 8 day vacation to Belize. That's all I've used them for so far so I can only comment on that. I knew there'd be tons of adventure and I wanted it on camera. During my trip preparation, I was so impressed with the quality of this camera I bought another one. I don't regret it one bit. The video footage is absolutely stunning. I recorded everything using the 2k setting and watching the videos back makes me feel like I'm back in the middle of the jungle. These things held up very well when exposed to torrential rain, diving in the carribean, cave exploring, kayaking, you name it. Definitely recommend and will never vacation without them again.

    I am extremely satisfied with my purchase of the GoPro Hero5. It has amazing video quality and the ability to shoot in 4K. The only con I have is the battery power, it only lasts two hours.

    This is a great camera. Battery life is way better than my Hero 3 and being waterproof without a case is very nice. The problem is the sound. If you take the USB door off, the sound becomes muffled. If you put it in the Karma Grip, it is even worse. To the point that I took it back. If you do not plan on using a Karma Grip with it or taking off the USB cover, the sound is fine.. Or if you just want it for video and do not care about the sound, it's great! Also, the built in digital stabilization is not that great.

    This camera is excellent! Way better than the previous ones. 4k video is stunning. Love the fact that it's waterproof without a case unless your going really deep. Then you'll need the deep water case.

    Best action camera in the market

    The Hero 5 is by far the best action camera you can buy. The 13MP photos and the 4K video look stunning, and the voice commands are really a super plus that differentiates from the competition.

    We had prior generations of the GoPro and all were fine, but we wanted to update. The Hero5 is much easier to use. Voice command is great. Picture quality is much improved. Very pleased overall.

    GoPro Steps It Up

    I've upgraded from my 2 year old Hero 4 Black and I have to say.... this was WELL worth the upgrade. The Hero 5 is waterproof right out of the box. This is a huge improvement, especially where audio is concerned. No more housing to work with. It's nice having clear audio track instead of the squeaking and popping of that housing. The voice command feature is nice, but it doesn't work for me when I'm fishing on the kayak. Too noisy. Instead, I pair it to my old smart remote and it works great. Another new feature is the GPS. It's pretty cool to have the GPS info overlaid on my video tracks. Very nice feature that works only in the Quik GoPro software. I'm very happy with the hero 5.

    This GoPro5 is a great toy and will suitable for all activities. You will love the 4K video shot and without the housing, your Gopro can also go in the water. If you can afford this, go get one.

    Go pro always makes a good product but I like how they eased off the price 100 bucks and still gave a great quality camera. I use it to film my atv rides and it's easy to use and crystal clear.

    I bought this camera to replace the previous version which was having bluetooth connectivity issues. I really enjoyed that one and enjoy this one also. I like that it is touch screen and I can immediately see pics vs having o use the app with the older version. I hope it continues to work well.
