    I was able to price match this camera at an amazing price. The quality and portability is top notch. I wish the battery lasted longer, can’t expect much from something this size though. I mostly use it to capture my ski adventures. Has done well when wet and cold.

    For those of you who want a solid, well built camera without spending a fortune, this is for you. The 1080p 60 FPS is solid, cant fairly judge on the 4k. I went through the super cheap cameras on amazon, this one is a keeper.

    I am a beginner with videos, but the quality and stabilization of the videos are amazing. Quality of the photos are not as good as the videos, but still really really good. Also, battery life is great, and it charges in an hour or less.

    On the plus side: Well made and simple to use Wireless connection with iPhone app is well designed and makes viewing and editing video simple Cons: Battery life in cold conditions is poor - I keep the camera in a coat pocket when not filming to extend battery life

    My first 'action cam' - I was a little concerned about the lack of a built in screen, but it turns out that it's really not necessary. I definitely need a bigger hard drive, though, with all the video we're recording now!

    Don't bother with the $150 hero session, this or the hero 5 block are the only ones you should get. Very small, video quality is great with enough light. Sound leaves a lot to be desired but you can get a rode mic to get better audio quality. Overall happy with purchase

    We bought this camera after seeing a demonstration of what others had done. Since day one, they have purchased accessories that made hands free videos simple and fun to make. We're thinking drones may be the next step!

    It's a Go Pro for those that want light weight, not bulky video and photography of your action. The voice control is vital, and you can always review yr video realtime through the App on your phone. It fits my needs!
