    When I first opened the box, I knew I had to do big things with this little camera, mounting was easy and I even bought a few extra mounts. Video footage is beautiful an easy to start.

    Great overall. Good video. Works prefect underwater. Use narrow or linear view! Has some issues with recording at times, doesn't start every time, shut off every time. Buttons get stuck down at times. Annoying little things. But, overall it works well and would be purchased again.

    Fun action camera to work with. Features are easy to you and convenient to pair with your phone to use as a remote. Clarity is unreal and the mic is way better than the previous models.

    Great camera! There's nothing to add to it. Great picture, sound, easy to use. Bought it as a gift for my son - he's skating and borrowed several times since then to film NYC scenery.

    Water proof camera out of the box without the need for the case is a major upgrade. The picture quality seems improved and you can chose the linear option to get rid of the fish eye.

    I love the camera because it is simple to use. The touchscreen is great to make things quick to navigate. The battery does die quickly so I recommend getting the dual battery charger.

    GoPro seems to be the standard so I went with it and I can see why. The picture quality is amazing and the ease of use is great for me being a newbie to the action camera scene.
