    I bought this as a dash cam and it works great. You can plug it in to charge in your car and it has a 1 hour battery life so at times I don't have to plug it in for short drives.

    I've used this GoPro for various forms of travel, ranging from hiking, to snorkeling, to standard day trips. It works great in all weather and terrain, and the quality is quite good.

    I bought the Hero 5 Session rather than the Session due to voice activation, video stabilization, higher resolution, and still picture abilities. It was all worth the extra hundred dollars!

    Had only use it twice. But so far, I love it. The camera quality is crystal clear (after watching over dozens of YouTube video) I finally got my video & picture settings right.

    Bought for our 7 year old son and 11 year old daughter. They have had fun making videos together & with friends. Great quality video and easy to use. Purchased the extension pole separately which was a must for us.

    Good compact camera for use in fpv quads. Also the 3 year protection plan is a great deal. Can't be happier especially with the lowered price. Would definitely buy again.

    I couldn't believe how tough and durable this camera is. Awesome super wide angles, beautiful time lapse quality, and versatile to capture video, pictures, time lapse, or burst pics.

    I bought this for my son. He loves it! He has taken it in the pool and everywhere else you can imagine. The only downfall is you have to buy an expensive memory card to use it. They should include one with the camera.

    I don't know if there is anything I can say bad about this camera. It does everything I was supposed to do but like anything else I wish the batterywould last a little longer

    I have 3 GoPros and this is the smallest one that I use with my kids. It so small easy to keep in my pocket with a lens cap. I normally keep it on a selfie stick in my back pocket ready to capture a moment. Battery life is a just under 2 hours and I covers all of my needs. If anything I would say buy this and another GoPro. I love the 1"X1" body of the camera and the waterproof aspect. It's small and can go just about anywhere.

    This is a great small camera to record adventures out on the trail or underwater. It has a wide lens to capture all your surroundings in the view and under water fun.

    Incredible quality and honestly the mic isn't that bad. I dropped it opening the box about 4 feet onto concrete and not even a scratch. The app works great with it as well!
