    One of the worst things about a selfie is pressing the button while using a selfie stick. The Hero 7 Black count down timer works well buuuuuut..... LOL!

    Great device to use when taking pictures outdoors. I had to buy a new one because I had failed to use the wrist strap on my old remote and it feel in a river. Never again.

    The GoPro - Smart Remote - works great. I was disappointed my original GoPro Remote did not work with my Hero 5. So, had to buy the new Smart Remote.

    The remote is pretty decent once you learn it's purpose and limitations. Yet it does what it's supposed to do I guess. Will have to 'play' with it more to get used to it overall.

    At first was little difficult to stabilish connection, but then it was automatic. Works great to use on kitesurfing, water sports in general and big distances.

    Does what it needs to do. I wish it had a display showing you the screen of the camera. That would make it much easier and more functionable for taking videos and photos.

    I'd debated about getting the remote based on the reviews I read. I decided to go ahead and get it. It's a battery drainer!

    The best feature about this remote is the screen mirror. The remote displays the info from the gopro. Only negative is it's bulky. Battery life is excellent!

    Nice but not a must have - you can use the app to do the same if you are ok with having your phone be the remote.
