The Hero5 Session is much improved compared to its predecessor, adding 4K and 2.7k video modes, as well as various options for frame rates and field-of-view controls. Unfortunately, the battery life isn't great, and with no way to swap in a fresh one (the battery is built in), you'll need to be...

The Hero5 Black is a proper successor to the Hero4, and it's worth the upgrade.

Rugged and waterproof without housing; Great photo and video quality; Responsive touchscreen; Three stereo mics; with noise canceling; Voice control

Battery life remains the same; Requires some new accessories

This is a cracking action cam. The best you can get, in fact. It's a great evolution of the firm's tried-and-tested line, featuring plenty of user-friendly extras that make capturing top quality footage a doddle.

Voice activated camera control; Improved video and stills; Brilliant optional drone

Fiddly rear touchscreen; Caseless waterproofing suspect; Package can get expensive

I did quite a bit of researching before my purchase. Before I speak of the cons I'll say it is a great camera and the size is awesome especially since it has the ability to record 4K. I believe it is built well and overall pretty user friendly.

It's been a long while since GoPro launched the Hero 4 Black, but has the Hero 5 been worth the wait? Well it certainly has. Read our GoPro Hero 5 Black review to find out why.

Overall happy with my purchase; Good value for money and amazing photo quality

Experienced issue connecting my phone to this cam via wireless; The first time, I had to reinstall the gopro app in my phone; The second and hopefully last time, had to manually set up the wireless connection within the gopro cam

GoPro Hero 5 has been launched alongside the Karma Grip in India. We decided to test the GoPro Hero 5 Black, along with its entire paraphernalia, including the Karma Grip.

I received my GoPro Hero Black and there was no charging cable compatible with the GoPro! The Charging cable included goes to a tablet, and doesn't fit the GoPro! Very annoying!!! The Camera is great but just cant understand getting ripped off on the cable...

The hero 5 is much better of an upgrade than the hero 4. The 5 has great audio and it is great for pictures and videos. In the video you can actual hear people talking also there are external mic ports.

Good quality Good audio Voice control External mic ports

NONE

The camera turns on often when it is in storage and drains the battery completely. It is also very slow to turn on. Connecting to the android app is very slow, this makes it very inconvenient. Otherwise the camera takes good looking pictures.
