    poor battery life - the biggest limitation

    In my admittedly-limited testing, I found the action cam reasonably easy to operate (just the two physical buttons on the cam) and light to carry. However, the poor battery life was a big turn-off. Even if I were to invest in an extra battery, removing the cam from the case to swap batteries is not as easy. I will test it some more, but am not sure I want to keep it given its limitations vs the price.

    Best GoPro On the Market

    After trying the Fusion and the Silver to then only return them, the GoPro 7 is the best action camera on the market. From the hyper smooth capability to the waterproof capabilities and more it is the most versatile and top quality GoPro one can currently buy. One might be tempted to get the Silver or another cheaper GoPro option, but the extra price is worth the value of the 7.

    I purchased this as a gift for my brother. He absolutely loves using this for video and photos on the 4 wheeler and at the snowmobile grass drags. I should have bought it sooner! I was able to purchase this with the extra battery pack and dual charger. I will say... it is recommended to have an extra battery. Go pro's are power hungry, but they have alot going on.

    Even though i expcted more from this one, the steady image feature is great, not needing the live streaming but if you do then great, love the options for resolution..dependong on your budget, you can do with a Hero 6 and wait on this one till it goes on some kind of sale, or other incluided bonuses or items.

    This is a great update to the GoPro line. I use it mainly for Time Lapse video and the Time Warp Video feature is great! No longer have to spend time processing thousands of photos for one video. Using this feature is so easy. And add in great stabilization and this action cam is even better. Highly recommend.

    Overheating?

    I've enjoyed my go-pro's throughout the years and the Hero7 is a great upgrade with the image stabilization. However, I have had many issues with the camera shutting off after a few minutes of recording and the housing being very hot. This was being used in normal conditions so nothing extreme. Bought a new battery with the same results. Go-Pro say they'll replace it so we'll have to see if I end up with the same issue.

    Made this purchase for a Hawaii trip and I can't complain much about this. It's my first GoPro ever and I can say that I totally enjoy using it. I'd recommend getting a larger sized SD card for this because the 4k resolution will definitely eat up a lot of the video recording time. But nonetheless, I highly recommend this product to anyone who doesn't own a GoPro yet!

    Awesome camsra. Motion stabilization is great, resolution and field of view are great. Battery life is horrendous. Got less than 2 hours out of it and only recorded 3x 2 min videos. Switch off when not recording or bring 3-4 extra batteries. App is clunky and slow. Just save the vids to SD card and move card to PC to transfer and save yourself a few hours. Dont bother using app to control camera or view media. Plenty of WIFI errors trying to connect.

    This model GoPro rocks for snowmobiling! The quality of the footage is off the charts, the variety of modes is really cool. Extremely happy with the product and price at Best Buy. Be sure to use the 64gb SD card for best quality. If I used the 128gb SD card , the video would freeze and the only option was to utilize the 1080 mode but you would lose the stability in the footage.
