Touchscreen can be under-responsive, Won't fit some older accessories
If you're looking for the best GoPro Hero camera, end your search, this is it. The refinements made to the overall design, UI and performance all come together to create a solid, versatile action camera – and the Hypersmooth 3.0 stabilisation is second to...
Front screen, Larger rear screen, Higher-capacity battery, Supports Max Lens Mod, 24MP stills
Bulkier compared to Hero8, 5K video feels pointless, Incompatible with Hero8 Media Mod

Overheats after 30 minutes of 5K capture, Slightly narrower field of view than Hero8 Black, Bulkier than the dinky Hero8 Black
