GoPro HERO9 Black CHDHX-901-RW review
The GoPro Hero 9 Black is the most powerful and versatile action camera you can buy, but for most people its predecessor offers better value. While the new sensor and front display are useful additions, the changes don't collectively represent a big leap over the Hero 8 Black.- 5K video delivers more detail
- Front display is handy for vlogging
- Improved battery life
- New software tricks
- Unresponsive touchscreen
- Little improvement to 4K shooting
- Still no 4K/120p mode
- HEVC files need recent editing hardware
GoPro HERO9 Black CHDHX-901-RW review
Action cameras and going modular. GoPro’s latest attempt to get one-up on the DJI Osmo Action and the Akaso Brave 7 LE means a front display for vloggers and taking selfies, high-resolution photos and video grabs, but most importantly a removable lens cover.- All-new front display
- Larger rear display
- Excellent image stabilization
- 20MP photos and 14.7 MP grabs from video
- Stable connection to a phone
- Easy-to-use app
- Larger physical size
- Batteries are not backwards-compatible
- Touchscreen is laggy
- Max Lens Mod costs extra
- Hit-and-miss horizon leveling
GoPro HERO9 Black Camera - Brand New review
It wasn’t long ago that action cameras were in an arms race to make the smallest possible device. In fact,...- Front-facing screen and a larger rear screen. Gorgeous 5K footage with in-camera horizon-levelling. 20MP stills and 14MP screen grabs. Vastly improved performance in cold temps. Longer battery life
- A bit heavier than the Hero8 Black, Your old GoPro batteries won’t work with it, Video images lack a bit of sharpness and the colours are slightly off (hopefully fixable via firmware)
GoPro HERO9 Black CHDHX-901-RW review
We like TimeWarp, it’s a fun feature that could be a good tool for storytelling. Although not groundbreaking, the low light performance was a stop greater than we expected and it’s easy to operate.
GoPro Hero 9 Black review: All action hero
Video and still photography quality won't match a flagship smartphone, that's for sure, but GoPro more than makes up for it by offering a camera you could bounce off walls, drown in a river, and take on the shakeiest bike ride you could imagine - yet still deliver awesome footage.- Impressive HyperSmooth capabilities
- Big battery really delivers
- Design is more durable than previous designs
- Colour screen on the front is a major plus
- Bigger than predecessors
- Touchscreen can still be fiddly
- Limited stills photo potential
- Low-light hinders quality

GoPro Hero 9 Black review
The GoPro Hero 9 Black is the most capable GoPro you can buy right now, and new features including a front-facing colour display improve the overall experience, but there's still much to be desired when it comes to low-light performance.- HyperSmooth 3.0 is impressive
- Front-facing colour display is a great addition
- Great outdoor performance
- Bigger than predecessors
- Laggy touchscreen
- Poor low-light performance
