A more expensive action camera with gorgeous slow motion.

The slow motion is insane; as is the dynamic range

A couple of irritating bugs and so so mic quality

GoPro has always occupied a fairly tight niche of camera users. In fact, there are almost certainly more people who own the action camera than have lives gnarly or radical enough to actually need them.

New to GoPro, purchased GoPro6 quick delivery, saved $73 from retail prices. I wasn't aware that the memory card didn't come with it. Must have accessories 1. Memory card 2. Dual battery charger set. I also got 3-way DVC & float handle. Slowly build on getting more accessories.

GoPro's latest flagship action camera, the Hero6 Black, arrived in India last year at a rather steep price of Rs. 45,000. However, the company cut that down to Rs. 37,000 in January. While this is still higher than what it retails for in the US, it's a welcome improvement.

Waterproof; rugged body; Supports 4K 60fps recording; Good video in daylight; Easy-to-use app

Struggles in low light; A bit expensive

The GoPro Hero6 Black is undoubtedly the most powerful action camera the company has created yet, but it's also the most expensive and still has a few areas, like compatibility, price and stabilisation, left to improve on.

Higher frame rates; Still waterproof to 10 metres without a case; 5GHz Wi-Fi for faster transfers

Expensive; HEVC codec not compatible on all devices; Low light shots still suffer

The GoPro Hero 6 Black is a great choice for avid adventurers, action sports enthusiasts, and even filmmakers to hop onto. For those people who already own a previous model GoPro, the Hero 6 is a very worthwhile upgrade to step your action camera videography to the next level.

Great image quality; HEVC; Built like a tank; Good wireless connectivity; Improved image stabilization; Bright display

The new GoPro and its range of accessories create a photography ecosystem in themselves

My Gopro life

Overall, I'm blown away by the GoPro Hero6 Black. As regular readers know, I'm all about a few core things, and in particular with action cameras: Image quality, ease of use, and the end-state specs. And in all three categories this nails it, especially image quality.
