    Disappointed in this camera

    The Hero 6 wasn't worth the price(and I got it on sale). There are a lot of things that I was disappointed with in the GoPro Hero 6. Here's a few: It didn't work well with my PC when I was trying to get the media. I didn't think the camera did very well in dark conditions. There was a lot of noise in the video I shot in my house. While shooting in 4k, the camera was getting hot. Not sure if that would effect performance in the long run. I know some might find it worth it to overlook some of these things, but not me. Anyway, I decided to return it.

    We bought this for underwater video and pictures on our vacation and it worked great although I’d suggest reading the instructions well if you haven’t used one before.

    Go Pro Hero 6 when it worked it worked great, problem was it only work 25% of the time. It would freeze up and stop working or you could pair it up with a remote and work for a while then nothing. Took back to store 3 times to get a new one same thing happened again, got money back

    best action camera out there!!

    Super durable!! I own the hero 4 & the photo/video quality is so much better on the 6. Purchased mostly for vacation chasing the little ones around the beach and pool. I hate lugging around a huge dslr or using my cell phone for this. I've cracked the glass on 2 phones so far..highly recommend this to family shooters who want an easy shooting experience. Oh yeah the stabilization is insane!!!

    I was very excited at the time of the purchase however that joy ended very fast. The first camera freezes and won’t play my videos, took it back to the store and they suggested to be exchanged... second time it happened exactly the same! I taught was something I was doing wrong however the Squad Geek guys said it was something wrong with the camera sonI ended purchasing the HERO 5 which it works fine so far...
