    The image is good quality and nice to have wide angle options. That's a big plus. The battery life is poor and needs better options.

    I purchased this gopro as I was leaving for a cruise & I knew I was going to want to take some good shots. It was more then impressive, even though it was pretty over cast and weather wasn't the best, the gopro did a great job of capture video and photos. highly recommend!!

    High quality video for a decent price. This camera is near indestructible. Pair it with the three year warranty and you'll be videoing things you would have never dreamed of. I've used it in hot and humid weather as well as temps near the negatives and it has always performed flawlessly. I highly recommend this camera to anyone and everyone. Excellent buy!

    I recently took the Gopro 5 on a family vacation. After everything was downloaded onto my computer I was blown away by the quality of the Gopro 5 video. It is literally the best quality I have ever seen, and what makes it even better is that Gopro has been around for years so your choices of mounting devices are limitless. Definitely a great buy.

    GoPro action camera in my opinion is the best in the market. The hero 5 is great for just taking photos or videos under the water. The fact that the new camera does not require a housing. The video/photo and audio look and sound fantastic. I also like the voice command feature this allows for the user to focus on the shot more vs. pressing buttons.

    I've been using GoPro for 4 years now and I still feel GoPro 4 silver is a great product even nowadays. But I upgraded to this after my 4 got a crack in the back LCD. This hero 5 is also a great product except that the memory card is located inside the camera so I can't exchange the memory card without first getting it unmounted from my suction cup and then opening the bottom door. But considering its waterproof capability, I think it was inevitable for them to design this way..
