    This is a great product. I place the camera on the backstop fence at the baseball games and use the remote control to start and stop between innings.

    Learned a long time ago if you’re going to buy any device for outdoor adventure and it comes with a remote you should buy it. This is a nice remote too!

    Great for selfies but battery dies fast from use. Excellent for saving the battery life on your phone and easy to use while biking swimming and driving for action shots when no one is around to hold the camera for you!

    I simply love this remote. I have been using my gopro camera for 2 years with no remote, so all my videos start with a picture of me then position it to take videos, now you can position it first and then start recording.

    The remote makes it so easy to mount the GoPro and start and stop recording whenever you like. We have used it underwater and the only complaint so far was it was a little difficult to stop recording. Other than that we love it.

    although it does take a minute or two to connect to the camera, it offers a great option to remotely control the camera when the camera is not easily accessible.

    It's a little on the expensive side, but that is a GoPro issue not a Best Buy issue. I love that I can operate my GoPro without being close by and don't have to use my app on the phone if I don't want to.

    worked best for me on a snowmobile through the woods. Velcro strapped it to the handlebar and could record, snap and pause all while driving and without having to touch the camera.

    Definitely an accessory to consider for your GoPro. I use mine given I typically use the helmet mount and this remote give you a quick and simple solution to those mounts where the camera is not in your hands.

    It’s not something I use all the time but it works pretty good. It’s not perfect but if you put your GoPro on a tripod or mount, it’s nice to start a video or snap a photo without voice sometimes

    Got the remote for my GO PRO for hands free operation. It works great and it makes the GO PRO Camera very versitile. Very easy to use and the strap makes it very convient to reach all the buttons to operate the camera.

    I have two of these remotes. Battery life is terrible so be prepared to be continuously recharging it. It works, and it works well, but you really need to keep an eye on battery level. I use it for controlling two cameras.
