    Great camera! Make sure you get the protective housing if you're going deeper than 30ft in the water.

    This GoPro is a complete step up for the old one I had. The battery life is good but only if you disable some non-essential settings.

    Bought this for a trip to Europe, was super excited despite all the negative reviews. It worked perfectly fine the first 3 days but then it started to overheat. I’m not sure why but it felt like it was going to explode. Take in mind this was a NEW GoPro. I turned it off immediately to let it cool down and try to use it again the following day but it didn’t turn on. I thought maybe my batteries were dead but in fact the GoPro just didnt work anymore. I only got about 2 hrs of recording. I returned this item as soon as I return. I would not recommend this device.

    Overall, I am extremely excited about my HERO 8. Black I love using it, am a huge fan of the results I have gotten out of filming on it. After using it on my Costa Rica vacation - ziplining, white water rafting and ocean kayaking, I can safely give it a solid 9 out of 10 stars. My only issue having had some problems with the voice control.

    For me, the 8 black is tops. I would not spend 100-200 more for a 9 10 or 11. This does everything you would need!
