    If I had a 2nd Chance would I still but the GoPro for my kid - yes! Why? Excercise, photography and hopefully best pics ever!
    This camera is pretty cool but I was disappointed after I spent $800 dollars buying it along with accessories that came from GoPro which would have included a free S.D. card or other useful item and then bundles from another company and paid someone $100 dollars to set up and train me a new one was released! Not to mention that the shopping experience was painful online and I could have paid the same amount with GoPro and re wives additional freebies or learned that within the month a new version 8 was being unveiled! So if you plan on buying g one of these cameras may I recommend:1. Invest in the introduction books or be prepared to watch a lot of YouTube videos as your child sits waiting patiently fly.2. Be certain that the GoPro site doesn’t have a better deal on the camera itself - I learned this one the hard way!3. BUYER BEWARE - I HAVE YET TO VIEW MY PHOTOS OR VIDEOS SINCE I CANT FUNC THEM IN THE CANERA AND BELIEVE YOU MYST USE A SECONDARY DEVICE TO DI SO AND KNOW YOU MUST4. BUY OR OWN AN I5, 6, 7 etc I tel celery. Processor to effectively use the apps and be able to store 1, preferably 2TB of memories to use the apps to edit or create the cool stories. This is an entire lesson AND ADDITIONAL MONTHLY FEE UF YOU CARE!5. Camera is not intuitive. I hired someone to set it up. Then I got lessons. Then when I went to use it, I couldn’t even zoom the thing to see more than people the size as peanuts who were only 20 feet away. When I could zoom - it didn’t name that much of a difference.6. YouTube videos always show this menu-everything on this machine should be voice activated or touch d ten - it is not! So just get ready to select a few different external buttons before you can use the touch screen feature and not all icons in touch screen respond. To touch - only certain ones located at the bottom.7. If you have your GoPro set to video and just turn it on it will start to re it’s by simply selecting the power button so once you can access everything you have videographer or photographed get reEadt to delete and be stuck with likely half used SD cards sothose can’t be used chronologically as back ups to your cloud app.8. Extras - this box came with just a tiny camera that fit in my hand. No SD card or converter. Just the camera and case. If you want the benefit of everything or just 10% of what this device can do you will need to prepare to spend an additional 2-300 if you are cheap. I spent $50@ so far and that was in memberships and to get help just opening the very difficult camera compenents which I understand must remain firmly intact due to the waterproof feature but there has to be an easier way9. Speaking of easier way - GoPro should produce free tutorials from opening the box to explaining what a S.D. Card is and what a converter card is and where you can access the battery to charge it - this tutorial should note that the case must be removed. It should literally coating an online lesson plan included with purchase. It is almost a must as I love this camera and so does my kid but we Gabe both endured painful experiences trying to open the charging area to location the battery.10. It would be awesome if you partner reed with a retIler that could take our S.D. cards and just show us what is there and they download videos to cd’s or memory sticks and do the same with the photos we can review prior to picking.These are just a few suggestions for GoPro and some advice for new users. I must admit that my non GoPro accessories that were made to work with GoPro have been my Best Buy. I will photograph what size bag I must carry to get my “smaller-than-palm” camera and its accessories needed around with me! You would be s hocked to know that I have hundreds of dollars in SD cards and $50@ worth of plastic equipment on top of what I paid for a canera in a cool box that is now outdated as if 4 months ago! On a positive note - at least I heard the only real difference between the two is the choice of a “real” black - mine is a “washed out black, maybe grey color and the new GoPro has 2 other colors of camera. None of which are noticeably bright - which would be Irrelevant in the long term because the camera is always in a case!I am attaching my GoPro only bag now and as soon as I get my photos on my ios7 Intel I will do a dude by side comparison with an iPhone 6s underwater picture taken with a bag over it that they sell at the Grand Wales in Hawaii to compare to the quality of the GoPro’s abilities u see wate - unless I get locked out from reviewing!

      I purchased the Hero6 after having constant frustrations with my several year old Drift. I needed an upgrade and GoPro is obviously the industry leader.

      I want to preface everything here by saying that GoPro customer service is TOP NOTCH. Please read on...

      I had secured the curved helmet mount as per the directions as I was going on a family ski trip in February. I was super stoked to use my Hero as I'd read so many good things about it. Well, as 'fate' would have it, something did not work out right with the adhesive. I put my helmet down for a second at the top of a slope, put it back on, and raced down the hill. I have all the goodies with the Hero, including the wrist control (which I find is very functional). At the bottom of the slope, I put my hand on my head, and guess what? NO GOPRO. I thought I had lost it somewhere on the slope.

      Well, as it turns out, it never went down the slope with me...it apparently fell off the helmet and was sitting in the snow. Someone turned it in at the top of the slope but I had no idea...I went down the same slope a few times, looking for it...before I started asking around for it. My wife was angry with me as we spent the whole day looking for the Hero...of course, for the cost, I wasn't going to just walk away. Plus, it was my first day on the slopes and I really wanted it for videos, pics, and everything else... To make a really long story short, the camera was brought to the base of the mountain (Keystone Resort in Colorado) and I was able to retrieve it at the end of the day.

      This is where GoPro stands out. I was calling them during the day when I got a break and I'm sure they could tell I was both upset and frustrated...after all, I had just spent all this money and I never even got to use it. It'd be easy to say 'this guy is an idiot' at this point, but please remember that I 'cured' the adhesive as per the directions...simply put, something was wrong.

      Customer service filed a ticket for me and asked me to continue looking for it...which I did. They were polite, concerned, and helpful. We were all happy when I found it and after a few discussions and emails, Go Pro promptly sent me another curved helmet sticky. In addition, they sent me a hand held 'selfie'...they probably felt bad for me and wanted me to never lose the darn thing again. (of course, I got these when I got home). Lucky for me, I had also purchased a chest mount and I used that the rest of the trip.

      That's my story...so, for the rest of the trip I got great videos and pictures. I love my GoPro and I love the company. They care about their customers and stand by them. Very few companies these days do this...it is very much appreciated. Oh, the voice activation is amazing, BTW...I ended up using this over the wrist control by the last day.

      Another note: Do NOT buy aftermarket batteries. I did that to save a few bucks and guess what? They worked great when in a room but in the cold, they died almost instantly. When I got home, I returned them and got the GoPro batteries and charger kit...well worth the money. Don't take chances...for a few bucks more, nothing beats quality.

      I hope this review has helped a few people make an informed decision. GoPro is a great company with high quality products.

      This is my first GoPro type camera so I don't have anything to compare it to outside of digital cameras/higher end cell phone cameras. I recently picked up to get some footage of my kayaking trips, and so far I am very impressed. I used it off and on for the first time the other day for a full day fishing trip, and I'm very happy with the results. Since I don't know what I'm doing, I used the default video settings at just a basic 1080p. Other than a couple of shots where the side of my life jacket was in frame (my fault) using the chest rig worked well. The mic picked up my voice well, without having too much other noise, and stabilization is really good even paddling through boat wake. Even the simple 1080 default setting looked really good watching the clips I took on a 24" 1080p monitor later. Operation is really simple... hit a button that's easy to hit to record, hit another to stop recording, hold another to power on/off.

      Swapping batteries in the middle of the lake wasn't bad, takes a little more effort with cold fingers, but not a huge deal. It just take a bit to get the camera out of the frame case that attaches to the chest rig. It's easy to tilt with the chest rig, and other than for a battery or memory card swap, the camera doesn't need to be removed to do anything. I haven't used any software sans Windows so far, I just plugged the camera into my PC, navigated to the folder with the images in My Computer, copied them to a folder, and watched with the Windows player. All pretty basic and seamless. So far the camera is exactly what I wanted, I'll update the review if I have issues or learn anything else useful to the review, but so far I can't see any reason not to recommend it. Bear in mind you'll be spending some not-insignificant money on accessories, at a minimum extra batteries and memory cards, so keep that in the budget.

      This camera is amazing. The quality is unreal. I am coming from a Hero 4 silver, and this doesn't even compare. The quality of the images and videos from this device is crazy. I shot everything in 4K-30FPS to ensure that I had the stabilization. The stabilization works perfectly. You need to buy one of GoPro's suggested SD Cards. The reason being is this camera is writing large files with a lot of information and slower cards can't keep up. I did notice the camera heating up significantly when recording in the carribean, but never had issues with it overheating and shutting off. I also had the camera freeze on me a couple times when it was just sitting not recording where I had to unplug the battery but it wasn't a big deal at all.

      If you are looking between the older Hero 5 and the Hero 6, buy the Hero 6. The extra money is worth the new features. The GPS feature is awesome with GoPro quick where you can add all different information to your videos such as GPS location, Speed, G-force. It is just amazing.

      Storage space example - A 32gb Sandisk Extreme card recording 4K-30FPS with Protune enabled will give you roughly 45-55 minutes of recording. A 128gb Card gave me roughly 4 hours. If you move up to 4K-60FPS the recording time drops slightly.

      Battery Life: Roughly 1 hour to 1.5 hours. I would buy extra batteries. I have 5 in total, 2 genuine GoPro and 3 SmaTree. They all work great. In a full day of video, I at most went through 3 batteries.

      I could not recommend this camera enough. I hated my Hero 4, from the large case you needed to go in the water to the difficult controls even with the screen, this camera is on another level of great. I am so beyond happy with my purchase of this item.

      The picture I have included has no-color correction. This was right off the camera with Protune Enabled.

      I took my boss's Go-Pro to US and forgot it while returning back to India. Although the product is awesome, I had to give it back to my boss to counterbalance the loss.

      Camera incrível, tanto em fotos quanto em vídeos eu me surpreendi com a qualidade das imagens, recomendo muito, tem ótimas imagens, um ótimo estabilizador, o áudio também é bom, e otimos acabamentos, o que a gopro deixa a desejar são os acessórios, vem na caixa somente dois suporte pra capacete e um cabo tipo "C", fora isso essa câmera é muito boa.

      Muy buena cámara y mejor con todos los accesorios que tiene super resistente al agua y golpes, lo único que no me convence del todo es la duración de la pila pero puedes cargarla con una batería externa de celular y carga bien y muy rápido
      Otro detalle es que cuando grabas por un periodo algo largo se calienta muchísimo al punto de ser molesto tenerla en la mano
      Si calidad de imágenes y de vídeo es muy muy bueno y lo practica aún mejor te cabe en la bolsa del pantalón la recomiendo

      J’adore cette caméra GoPro ! J’ai eu les précédentes versions mais là j’avoue qu’ils ont fait fort les ingénieurs !
      Étanche ! Rien de nouveau c’est vrai.
      Qualité d’image photo/vidéo : merveilleusement beau !
      Écran tactile vraiment efficace,
      Et surtout elle réagit à la voix ! C’est super pratique et efficace. Pas toujours facile d’appuyer sur le bouton d’enregistrement ! Donc maintenant on dit : gopro enregistrer video et hop ça filme... magique ! Et pas besoin d’hurler 😜👍🏻
      Le seul truc c’est l’emballage. Toujours aussi pénible à enlever de son support la caméra !

      5.0 out of 5 stars Great camera, small, simple to use and great quality footage
      Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 11, 2018
      Color: BlackSize: Camera OnlyVerified Purchase
      I love this camera and have been very pleased with it during a recent three week road trip in the USA during which I used it extensively and shot hours of footage, filling three memory cards. My reason for selecting the GoPro was because I wanted a simple to use, good quality camera with a minimum of accessories. I don't actually use it for what it is intended as an action camera, rather I used it as a straight forward video camera for recording my holiday so I am probably not who these cameras are aimed at. For me, regular camcorders and SLR cameras are just to big to lug around all day, I just want something small, easy to set up and use giving good quality footage and this camera fits the bill. The only thing I really missed was a zoom but that was my choice, not a fault of this camera and where necessary I have cropped in during editing as a compromise. I did consider a rival before I bought this but it was more expensive and did not have an integral screen, something that I have experienced on another camera where you need a phone or an accessory and I find that real nuisance, so a GoPro it was. The stabilisation is so-so, not as good as a gimbal or optical image stabilisation but nevertheless it works reasonably well. The camera works best in good light where the video quality is superb, low light reveals its shortcomings, just don't expect the stabilisation to be much good. I liked that I could just press one button to turn the camera on and start shooting although there is less of a time lag if you have it switched on ready to go. I kept mine on a 'shorty' at all time and it was great, I could use it as a tripod for time-lapse, as a selfie pole or just as a handle and it fitted easily into my bag or pocket. The touch screen works well and learning the menus and what it will do was a fairly painless experience. I did have a couple of freeze ups when I was first trying it out but had no problems when using it in anger. This may be because I was using the recommended memory cards so perhaps those who have been getting these problems, which seem to be fairly common, may be using cards not on the recommended list, just a suggestion. I have to say I am amazed at how few memory cards are on the recommended list and this is something that GoPro should be looking at but no doubt aren't. One issue I am looking for a solution to is wind noise. I will fit some fluffy windjammers next time I film outdoors in a breeze as the wind noise reduction is poor on this camera. This camera isn't perfect so I keep on looking for one that is knowing that such a beast exists only in my mind. I know GoPro has its knockers but I can only speak as I find and I don't regret buying this camera. In a nutshell, a nice simple to use camera that produces good quality footage and met my expectations, hence the 5 star rating.
