I use this regularly and it is really awesome. The 2 great things about it are the display screen and the remote(which came in with the package). This is a perfect camera for people who love to travel.

I bought a lot of clones model but none of them can top this real one. The video quality is exceptionally beautiful. On top of everything Best Buy gave me a price match with target. Thank you Best Buy

Hero 5 vs 6

Although the GoPro Hero 5 doesn't have all the features that the new Hero 6 does, it was a too good a deal to pass up at $350 with a $50 GC. We already had the Hero 3 and are excited for the upgrade!

This is my 2nd Go Pro. GP 5 Black, 1st was a GP3Bk. This camera is far superior to the 3. I've only used it twice but the pictures and video were outstanding quality. I highly recommend this camera.

I love this camera. I'm an avid surfer and take this camera out every time. The functions are easy to adjust. The included remote is only good outside of the water. It will disconnect everytime you submerge it. I actually bought a diving case for the camera. The ocean is a pretty harsh environment. So I wanted the piece of mind.

We went back and forth on getting a GoPro then decided between the 5 and 4 versions. Incredibly happy with the HERO5 and the remote. The voice activation on the HERO5 made the ease of use better and expanded the range in which we could take pictures or video. The quality of video is incredible and the durability is even better. This camera made our trip so much better because we didn't have to stop things to pose or worry about dropping a phone. It's very hard to take selfies but the wide lens is big enough that you can get everything in the frame with a stick handle.

The camera works great and is recording 4K at 30 fps. The pictures are good quality! The battery is much better than my gopro 3plus or my 4black.

This camera is just purely amazing. The 4K video blew my mind, the battery life is good. Added the clear super suit case too, and it makes the perfect combo for any adventure.

This is my first GoPro. There is a newer, more expensive model available and I don't have anything to compare it to. However, this model works good enough (actually) great for me! I am new to vlogging and some of the vlogging cameras were really expensive. This is a great alternative for a novice and the picture/videos show up really clear. I am glad I made this purchase!

Where do I begin? This camera is great!
Top reasons:
1. Video quality (excellent) - Lots of options for resolution, fps, etc.
2. Photo Quality - The best! Various options to choose from.
3. Easy to use. Menus are simple to use.
4. Audio Quality - Biggest improvement so far. Noticeable difference from previous versions of GoPro.
Overall, this camera is great. Quality video and photos at a reasonable price. Certainly user friendly and I say this with ease as I'm not always tech savvy. Definitely love it!
