    As former owners of the Hero 4, this model is so much easier to use. One big improvement is that the Hero5 doesn't need the waterproof housing....so using it in the water is as simple as adding the float and going in the water. So much easier and the pictures come out great. We like it so much, we got 2! One for me and one for my wife!

    This is a great camera. I got it when BestBuy was running a deal so it was super cheap. It shoots in 4K, very high quality, and the audio is great. I have not used it underwater yet, however. But I do have the GoPro Hero 3 plus and it's 1/4 as good as this. If you are going to put money into a GoPro or a small, travel able camera, buy THIS!

    I returned my 5 Black as soon as I saw this was released for the ability to shoot 4k at better than 30fps. I tried it out with a third party shoulder harness on an Inflatable 5K obstacle course and the video was impressive. Voice command is a nice feature as well. Once I set the camera angle I didn't have to touch it to start/stop recording

    i love the gopro but the biggest disappointment is by far the battery life. it only last around two hours or so of use with 1080p 60fps which is pretty bad if you ask me. the whole purpose to the device is to record and it should last longer than my phones does while recording, i can get that type of durability from my phone at 4k with 30fps. so over all this is not the best for long uses but its still produces great videos.
