    The main complain I have is that the files are fairly large due to the resolution. I would love to see an option where I could set the resolution lower than 1080. My second complain is that the battery drains fairly quickly. Otherwise, good video camera.

    Purchased for work and this has done wonders for me. Also, depends on your use, I recommend an extension pole as well. I heard lots about the GoPro and now I understand.

    We bought this to film our off road adventures in the Jeep. We couldn’t be more pleased with the purchase. The video and camera quality is excellent. The video stabilization is a game changer.

    This is my first GoPro Camera. It's has amazing capability for it's size. However, beware. There is a learning curve here. Also, to get the most out of one of these little guys requires a lot of additional support equipment. This kit is a good start - but only a start.

    I bought this as a Birthday present for my 7 year old, I was so impressed with it I wanted to keep it lol. She loves it, she wanted to start vlogging for youtube. Compared to my old Hero 2 this camera is Amazing!!! 4K quality is great as long as there is good lighting. It’s small form factor is a plus! I want one for myself now lol.

    It took me a while to decide to replace an old hero2 camera but wow I should have done it sooner. Just incredible and the app is awesome, it sure makes editing video much easier for me.

    Great value to have the accessories come with it! Especially the extra battery! Would be better if it included a protective case but oh well. I went on amazon to buy a screen protector.
