    The Hero Session is easy to use. push one button and its recording with any settings you've set on the camera or through the Capture mobile app. The bigger GoPros have only slightly better video for a much bigger price.

    Chose this for its small size & for 4K quality. Only used it a few times (nothing exciting yet) but I love it. Connects to my phone easily & provides a nice viewing screen.

    We had friends bring this over for a weekend visit and schooled us on the in's and out's of this wonderful item. As we went throughout the day we took video and at dinner she played around with her phone and before they left there was a mash-up of the videos and was incredible. Needless to say we were sold on it. Went out the next weekend and bought our own. We have used it so much and take it everywhere and love the fact how versatile this item is and can go anywhere. One of the best purchases we have made. My only critic would be that the battery does not last that long as long as I wish it would but it is a pretty fast charge.

    We've been using it underwater and it is much better than we could have hoped for given the price. Great camera for active people trying to capture those unique moments.

    Great pictures and video quality but battery life will be key. If used for quick videos this would be ideal but anything more than a hour not so much. Also the camera will get very hot with extended use

    I got this to record rides on my motorcycle. I watched lots of videos on youtube using various camera set ups before deciding to get the GoPro. It is amazingly small, and that is important when you have 80mph winds trying to blow it off your helmet. Great quality video, and plenty of available editing software.

    I love this thing almost as much as my boyfriend does. He rides dirt bikes and it's perfect for catching him crashing. Only problem I have with it, is the battery life. If he turns it on and starts riding, the battery is dead in a hour ish. Maybe it's something we're doing wrong, I don't know.

    Good camera for it's size and weight, voice activated, etc. However, no removable battery was a deal killer for me. I returned it for the go pro 5.
