    Had to return it because 9 is released and the battery life is not good. Low light performance is not nice either, but overall it is a nice little toy to do creative things I believe.

    I purchased this camera specifically to take underwater snorkeling videos! Snorkeled in Jamaica in November and love to watch the videos. It's almost as if I'm really there! Great way to capture memories!

    I’m very impressed with the quality of this camera for this price. I plan to use it on my jet ski. I am very excited to also have other mounts to use it on a bicycle helmet, etc.

    I bought this to record my daughters’ softball games. Battery life is not great but the clarity is very clear and it’s easy to use. I ended up buying another battery to keep on hand. Highly recommend this if you need an action camera.

    Picture and video quality are great. Th red GoPro app makes viewing your photos and videos super easy, you can even use your phone as a remote to take photos and videos. 10/10 would recommend.

    Love the hero 8 image stabilization better than with a gimbal!!! Just wish it still had quick change lens like the hero 7. Just wish I could take lower resolution video to save memory on phone/iPad when transferred.

    Love the quality of the filming that this camera has. Could be a little more user friendly as far as downloading to your phone as it takes forever to download. Maybe I do not know exactly what I'm doing LOL

    Go pro is the way to go very nice camera has a timer on it when you can shoot. You can hide it and it has and takes great video. Better than the 1st one. The price is a little more but worth it.

    I can't praise this enough. The only thing wrong with it, my own budget, I wish I had had the extra money for the newer model. But this one is excellent, and I'm very happy with this camera.

    The camera works great. It a bit complicated at the beginning but i found several videos on YouTube that have been very helpful. Tried filming the night sky and to my surprise it took some amazing film.

    Great 4k daytime footage. Been having a blast so far - and with the right accessories you can really ramp up the fun. I know this isn't a cinema quality camera but I was expecting the night time footage to be less grainy.

    First time purchasing a GoPro. My only complaints are the inability to live stream to a Facebook Group and the battery life if you are live stream is short. So far it has worked perfectly for everything else I have used it for.

    I had a very old version of Go pro I am glad I was able to upgrade. I purchased this kit with the additional battery although later on I found better price somewhere else. Great to take videos of my kids running around.

    It's a great little camera. It's also very small, smaller than I expected which is good. It fits right in my pocket and I was able to take in to a festival.
