    Great video. I do wish it came with instructions. I also wish it said what apps were best to pair with it.

    Great camera, but the new GoPro Hero 9 is better.

    The Hero 8 was a great camera of 2019, however Insta 360 launched its one inch mod and challenged Hero greatly. Finally, now that Hero 9 is out, there is no reason at all to buy the Hero 8. Hero 9 is so much better in so many respects. By the way I hated the fact that Hero 8 did not have a replaceable lens. It's really dumb considering that all the other GoPros do have the replaceable lens.

    Good camera! I personally loved Gopro, I have owned almost every Gopro out there and I like them, but lately I have been noticing that Gopro has lowered its quality, I have had this for over a year and it's starting to turn of when I'm in the middle of a video, also takes forever to upload videos to the cloud and some files had been corrupted for some reason, but overall it's a good action camera.
