It’s not a hero
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was hoping this would be a cheap way to get into action video. The unit was half price so I thought I’d give it a whirl. Disappointing in all aspects, video quality, image sharpness, battery life. I know it’s a lot, but get what you really want...a Hero Pro.

Completely dissatisfied
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really expected a little more out of this camera. First thing the overall external quality seems a bit cheap. Screen definition also not good, and the worst thing of all is the battery life, won’t event last 29 min on recording time. Not a good deal at all

Not a GoPro
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.But you don't pay much for it! The battery is weak. The image has no image stabilization. The color of image can be off. What to use it for? Bicycle riding, or things you can use Adobe CC to fix. Mine went into 3fps Timelapse for unknown reasons.
