    Excellent video quality; GPS data is inaccurate

    The camera is excellent. The video is very crisp, and the stabilization works very well. I haven't tested waterproofing yet. I love the voice control; it's very responsive. The only flaw is the GPS data. It is completely inaccurate when compared to my Wahoo Bolt; the speed is about 20-40% off, even after extracting the data as a GPX file and using it in Garmin's software, and also Dashware. Overall, a great deal at $299 which includes the remote. I wish the GPS data wasn't garbage but maybe they will fix it.

    After owning a Hero 3+ before I was hesitant to buy another GoPro. I was not disappointed. It’s much easier to use and takes great photos. And the voice activation is awesome!

    I purchased the Go Pro 5 to replace my other go pro I lost while surfing. I just returned from Hawaii and took some great video and stills with my go pro 5. Easy to use and the smart remote that came with my purchase is a plus. Pictures download easy to the go pro app. I haven't used quick stories yet, but can't wait to try it out. Overall a great action camera to own.

    My 2nd hero 5. Battery life is subpar. It's a pain in to jump between multiple cameras on your phone, but ultimately it works. And how else am I going to film tons of useless footage of me driving, flying & riding a motorcycle so I can humble brag on Facebook.

    I use my Go Pro for shooting car videos and interiewing shots and after about using it for a month, I love it! Whether you want to use it for great POV shots or videos, you will get it and be able to share it easily to either your phone or to your computer. If you need to get an action camera for your day to day adventures, you can not go wrong with this camera.
