    Purchased to have an extra camera for streaming setup. Love the ability to mount virtually anywhere I need to. Picture quality is great for what I need.

    I’ve had several including the previous one fo this the 7Hero the fact you don’t need a case anymore makes it such a valuable tool. Not sure how it could ever be possible to improve on this!

    I like many of the new and improved features and I'm still experimenting with the other features. It is more customizable than pervious versions I use the time lapse feature all the time

    Overall a great 4K recording device but the battery dies out real quick. Love the sync up between the quik app and the device but certian features are hidden behind a subscription wall.

    Can’t say a lot, I’ve only used it a handful of times. Float trip last weekend was great with ease of operating, I bought the housing to keep it safe. Can’t wait to try it underwater!

    The only disappointment was it didn’t come with an SD card so of course we haven’t been able to use it. And Best Buy doesn’t have the greatest customer service especially during Covid

    Love this camera. Have brought it on hikes, ropes course, the quality is amazing. Only wish I had waited a bit as the Hero 9 was released a few weeks after I purchased this one.

    The GoPro Hero8 is great but... if I had one thing to complain about it would be the way it charges but in order for it to be waterproof it makes sense. All in all it is a great camera.

    I bought this to video my daughter's dive meets, but I've used it for much more than that. I did a video review of a new set of irons that I was testing and it was super easy.
